Well, you are the best at it after all, sir! I didn't think it was necessary! There used to be a site that had a full archive of hashtalk available - does anyone have it still if it's still online? Thanks! https://web.archive.org/web/*/hashtalk.orgremember when badbitcoin posted a post about how they were invested in paycoin and how it wasnt a scam and how they were awesome at seeing through scams... then removed the post from their page showing that. anyone got that? does that mean badbitcoin should add badbitcoin to their list? oh yeah, i remember that whole fiasco

This is exactly why we can't use carbon dating to verify the age of things. The Bible record suggests that there might not have been any C-14 in the atmospher prior to the Great Flood of Noah's day. The point isn't the Bible record. The point is that we can't go back very far with any certainty. We don't really know how much older than 5,000 years the universe is, through scientific observation. Having fun yet? and here we have yet another demonstration of the sheer ignorance of our buddy badecker. he's probably never heard of anything other than carbon dating which only works back to 5000 years or so. dude, you ever heard of all the other elements that dekay with known half lives? no didnt think so.... educate yourself... seriously educate yourself. sometimes i think you really don't believe all the shit you spout, you've just gone so far down the road of delusion with these threads ,that to take it all back now is impossible and you'd look foolish (you do anyway) ,so you figure .... "gone this far, might as well just carry on and go full retard!!!"

Good morning Bitcoinland.
After 4 days of slowly rising prices we had a nice little $100 correction and bounce halfway back up and seem to be consolidating well above $2500... currently $2525 (Bitcoinaverage).
This is the kind of moderate growth we need to keep going.
Go Bitcoin go.
Definitely, slow & steady upwards price increments is the way to go. Much better than huge pumps which are unsustainable & are usually followed by an inevitable dump. Be nice to break $3000 by the end of 2017, that's my personal hope. breaking $3000 by end of year is a cakewalk , tho it wont be a rise, more likely a crash from $3500 (followed by $4000 shortly thereafter)...this is bitcoin folks....

Looks like the possibility that homero is not gonna serve time is becoming more remote by the day and perusing the bowels of this thread proves that alone ,some hilarious gifs too! (well hilarious for some folks... maybe not so much for the credulous suckers victims )
30-80 months is the recommended sentence straight from the US Attorneys Office. If he serves more it will be because the victims voices were heard by the judge or less if they are not. If you are elderly, disabled, etc it would be in your best interest to speak up once the sentencing phase comes up. We aren't there yet. AGREED! Is there anyone here who can speak for @Gava, who was critically ill and put all his savings into XPY for his family, before he died broke?wow. never heard that story tho remember gava posting on hashtalk. really sorry to hear that. that really sux. when you follow a thread like this and all its often raw and over the top humor its easy to get caught up in it , and forget that many real people really got hurt bad. I myself got "suckered" , thankfully only pocket change (don't invest,more than.... lose.....etc) so I guess it's easy for me to joke about it. won't any more.

Long time diamond hodler, thread lurker here... So I just registered at the diamond multipool and signed a message with my wallet to prove I controlled the receiving addy I registered. I pointed one of my gpu nicehash miners(V1.7.5.12) at the bitcoin addy I was assigned for a few hours. The nicehash "my miner" page showed mining activity and some bitcoin dust so I know it's working. Alas though, upon clicking "mining stats" for my diamond addy (on dmd multipool page) it shows all goose eggs (zeros) Also notice that it does not list the equihash (zcash algo) algo I'm mining with which, atm ,is the most profitable algo, afaik. Also under "all accounts stats" I see two diamond accounts that are not mine.
Can someone clue me in on what's up? Thanx siraz
All is fine sirazimuth, just send your earnings to your BTC address you see on the multipool page. The page does not refresh very often, payments are processed every 48 hours I think, not sure about this. Cryptonit is this right? Just be patient if you want to mine this way. ok thanx.. i kinda suspected that we did stop adapt and add new algo stats from nicehash they change just to often but we track ur nicehash balance its visible as unconfirmed balance once it switched to confirmed balance that means nicehash payout did arrive at multipool and next BTC -> DMD conversion will include ur BTC conversion this days just happens every 2 - 3 days keep in mind that the payout limits from nicehash affect when ur balance go from unconfirmed to confirmed they changed that to be pretty high so for get a payout once a weak u must be able to mine over 0.01 BTC in a weak if ur balance at nicehash is below if will be part of their once a month payouts for balance above 0.001 BTC and for a daily payout at nicehash u need crazy mining income of above 0.1 BTC ok thanx for that info. appreciate the quick response. don't i wish i was mining above .1btc a day! maybe someday when diamond $5 a coin

Which was debunked:
''All around us, in nature and the universe we see machine-like operations. These operations are extremely complex inside life and the cells. Machines have makers.'' (Where did you get the idea of machines have makers, you said that a monkey using a rock is a machine, how does that tell you it has a maker, how exactly did you get to that conclusion)(You also still haven't defined what machine-like operations actually mean, then you post a bunch of videos explaining how cells work, ok?)
''The advanced machines of the universe have an advanced Maker - God. Machines have makers.'' (Again assumptions for no reason, how do you know advanced machines of the universe have an advanced maker and how do you know the advanced maker is god)
1) Premise: Whatever begins to exist has a cause.
1A) Firstly this is just an appeal to intuition and intuition isn't always a pure pathway to truth (i.e. - intuition states that the Sun goes around the Earth). There may indeed always be a cause for anything and everything that has or ever will come into existence, including whatever came into existence at the Big Bang event (the postulated beginning of our Universe), but that cause isn't always evident. Some quantum physicists would in fact claim that there are uncaused things (i.e. - radioactivity).
1B) Whatever cause in itself that has come into existence has, IMHO, thus resulted from a previous cause, which had a previous cause which had a previous cause and that chain can be extended as far back as you wish. Stated another way, there is no such thing as a First Cause.
1C) Whatever thing that came into existence came into existence from a previous thing(s) which existed and which in turn came into existence from a previous thing(s) which in turn came into existence from yet a previous thing and so on as far back as you wish to go. Stated another way, you can only bring something into existence from a previous something. You cannot bring a material something into existence from pure nothingness or from anything immaterial.
2) Premise: The Universe began to exist.
2A) I need note here that the "Universe" is defined as the sum total of all the bits and pieces that collectively make up the, or our, "Universe". The "Universe" is just the label we give to all of those bits and pieces (particles, atoms, molecules, dust, rocks, planets, stars, etc.) that came into existence in-the-beginning or later emerged into existence out of simpler states (i.e. – molecules from atoms).
2B) The assumption here is that our Universe is the be-all-and-end-all of the Cosmos**. While that may be the case, it's not necessarily so. Just because you came into existence doesn't mean that others don't also exist. Our Universe could be one of many. There could be parallel universes or even a postulated Multiverse or Megaverse - maybe.
3) Conclusion: Therefore, the Universe has a cause.
3A) The effect (resulting from the cause) of the Universe coming into existence or coming into being is called the Big Bang event, so the cause of the Universe (i.e. - the cause of the Big Bang event) was something prior to the Big Bang event. If the Universe had a cause then that cause was obviously pre-Universe or before the Big Bang event.
3B) That's where the cosmological buck has to stop since we can't observe or measure anything prior to the Big Bang event.
3C) In context all we can say is that our Universe came into existence at the moment of the Big Bang event and that the Big Bang event had a cause. That says nothing about the larger context as suggested in 2B. It could be that our Universe popped into existence from within a larger Cosmos just like a baby pops out of the womb at birth.
4) Conclusion: Therefore the cause behind the existence of the Universe was God.
4A) Nearly all theists state that the cause of the Universe was due to an omnipresent (all-present), omniscient (all-knowing), omnipotent (all-powerful), all-loving, perfectly moral, and perfectly benevolent Almighty Being (i.e. - God). However these traits along with an entity who is itself uncaused, beginning-less, changeless, eternal, timeless, and space-less; an immaterial all powerful being who is a personal agent, endowed with freedom of the will, aren't verified; aren't all mutually inclusive and logical, with many an inherent philosophical inconsistency as well as many being actually contradicted by Biblical chapter-and-verse passages (i.e. - God is hardly all-loving).
4B) But a supernatural deity with some or all of these traits is also a total fallacy even if for no other reason than that the Cosmos has to be eternal (temporally infinite) since as I noted above there can be no First Cause and because you can't, and not even God can, create something material from the immaterial. It's a logical contradiction to postulate the creation / existence of an absolute something from an absolute state of pure nothingness and even God has to conform to logic (i.e. - God can't create a spherical cube). If you can't create something from nothing then something has always existed. If the Cosmos is infinite or endlessly cyclic, an infinitely repeating causal loop where A causes B and B in turn causes A, then what need for a God? If therefore, as theists want, that the Cosmos is finite since infinities aren't possible (i.e. - they tend to throw spanners into theistic philosophies - see 4D), then God too is temporally finite, therefore had a beginning and therefore had a cause. That of course contradicts the concept of an eternal deity and raises the obvious question, what caused God? If God is eternal then God created the Cosmos and our Universe an infinite time ago which is clearly not the case.
4C) Since science can't explain or actually identify the "cause" that caused the existence of our Universe, on the grounds that the cause preceded the Big Bang event and thus this cause can't be observed or measured, theists step into the gap and conclude that God is that cause. This God-of-the-gaps conclusion is also a fallacy since there are numerous other alternatives. The cause of the Universe could have been the Flying Spaghetti Monster or any deity or deities from any of the world's hundreds of creation mythologies. Maybe it was just a natural Big Crunch (a contracting universe) turning inside out at crunch time into a Big Bang; maybe an unknown and perhaps unknowable other natural cause we haven’t imagined yet; perhaps a quantum fluctuation; even perhaps (and this is my bias) a mortal, fallible, flesh-and-blood computer / software programmer fills the gap. God is only one hypothesis of many.
4D) Theists, even some cosmologists mistakenly say that there can't be an infinite Cosmos due to entropy (the state of useable energy available). An infinite Cosmos would have attained a state of maximum entropy an infinite time ago but that is not what we observe. I contend that at the moment of the Big Bang the clock was reset to time equals zero; the Universe was restored to original factory settings (including a state of minimum entropy). Consider this analogy. You only started ageing, started running down, and started increasing your entropy, at your conception. That's when your clock started. That state of conception was your original factory condition. What came before was irrelevant since as far as you are concerned, there was no before (although clearly there was). You had a cause therefore there was a state that existed before you. That cause was your parents and their state of entropy is an irrelevance as far as you (their child) is concerned at conception.
Even assuming that there is a first cause, the argument utterly fails to address how we can know its identity. The assertion that it must be the particular God that the arguer has in mind is a complete non sequitur. Why not the deist God? Why not some kind of impersonal, eternal cosmic force? Why not shape-shifting aliens from another dimension? Why not a God that sends Christians to hell and atheists to heaven? Or maybe the simplest of all, why not the Big Bang as the first cause? There is nothing in the argument that would allow one to determine any attributes of the first cause. (You have failed to explain this problem over and over)
There is nothing in the argument to rule out the existence of multiple first causes. This can be seen by realizing that for any directed acyclic graph which represents causation in a set of events or entities, the first cause is any vertex that has zero incoming edges. This means that the argument can just as well be used to argue for polytheism. (You yourself say that machine have makerS with S)
Through modern science, specifically physics, natural phenomena have been discovered whose causes have not yet been discerned or are non-existent. The best known example is radioactive decay. Although decay follows statistical laws and it's possible to predict the amount of a radioactive substance that will decay over a period of time, it is impossible — according to our current understanding of physics — to predict when a specific atom will disintegrate. The spontaneous disintegration of radioactive nuclei is stochastic and might be uncaused, providing an arguable counterexample to the assumption that everything must have a cause. An objection to this counterexample is that knowledge regarding such phenomena is limited and there may be an underlying but presently unknown cause. However, if the causal status of radioactive decay is unknown then the truth of the premise that 'everything has a cause' is indeterminate rather than false. In either case, the first cause argument is rendered ineffective.
great post my friend, thanx. couple of books come to mind you should check out if you haven't already... "Cycles of Time" by Roger Penrose "A Universe from Nothing" by Lawrence Krauss

Badecker is a religious fanatic, of course he would deny evolution. He believes himself to be some kind of renowned scientist, he reinterprets and redefines scientific laws, he believes in God but he is not religious, he is a God himself as he knows God's will, he understands how God is and he is also kind to forgive us for our blasphemy. He might also talk to God and save us from his wrath if we maybe say that he is right and the rest of the world as we know it is not. He does with science the same that he does with his religion. He claims in its name but denies it. Some might say he is full of himself but I have to disagree. He is not full of himself. He is full of shit. It is a law of science that a simple theory is more plausible than a complicated one. Another law is that a plausible theory must adequately address the entire body of evidence. What is the plausible and simple theory/explanation for the 40 cases from AECES? Answer: Survival of the personality. I perceive that non-survival explanations given by you are neither adequate, nor simple. I'm sorry, but how did you link your answer with my post which was about Badecker? I need some time to read all those cases, research and give you my opinion on them, so you have no answer from me, yet you replied to my post about Badecker as if it were my opinion on that matter. Thanks for reading the cases, they really are, in my opinion, some of the strongest proof available. I am still waiting for a rebuttal for these cases, it must include an explanation that is simple and adequate, but to me it seems that survival is the most simple and adequate. I am still waiting for a rebuttal of the top cases demonstrating the survival of the human personality after the demise of the physical body. These observations strongly support the survival hypothesis. What do atheists and humanists have to say about the compelling evidence presented here? How could a rational atheist explain this evidence? There is not even one post of real discussion of the evidence by the pseudo-skeptics in this thread. The 'skeptics' in this thread are embarrassing themselves when they should be examining the ideas presented above. ''some of the strongest proof available.'' Give me a fucking break, they are all bullshit. There is no real testable evidence for any of them, they rely on eye witnesses. Eyewitness misidentification is the single greatest cause of wrongful convictions nationwide, playing a role in nearly 75% of convictions overturned through DNA testing. http://www.skepticforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=22550Everything is debunked there, many times. Don't post shit like this please. Af newbie is an expert on mental health? I am skeptical. Have you read the link or are you going to try to avoid talking about it. You asked for arguments against your shitty proof and I delivered, do you have questions or perhaps there is something there that you don't agree with? Did not find addressed the Eisenbeiss case listed as #1 on AECES. Many of the problems are not valid and rely on misdirection. For example it is a problem if a researcher "believes in God also" but prior beliefs are not exactly relevant to evaluating the presented evidence objectively. Also there was no plausible alternative hypothesis presented. Skeptics did not meet their burden of explaining the evidence simply and plausibly. apparently qwik2learn is not exactly too qwik2learn

Yes my friends despite what these guys think they are all wrong according to BADecker! Seriously dude, you actually think I'm gonna read your nonsense about proof of some magical sky fairy and then somehow think oh yeah all these dumb scientists are wrong because BADecker has indisputable scientific proof that god exists. He says so right here in this bitcointalk thread. and he's been repeating it for past...oh idk 2 years, 24/7 so it must be true!! faceplant Oh yeah almost forgot...DRINK!! (or was that the other badecker delusionism thread? idk... same difference so who cares)

Another thing is that even if we agree with what badecker said and his crazy conclusions, how do we know which God did it? I asked him this question and he never responded, when you ask a religious person why he believes in his God and not any of the other hundreds of Gods, they cant answer. There is no reason to believe in the bible instead of the quran, for example. He simply believes in what he believes because he was brought up to believe it, he tries to be scientific and only ends up being a retard.
There is only One God. The rest of them are "gods" at best. Most are only idols. You still haven't answered the question, how do you know? Every religious person will say their God is the real God, they all can't be right, so, who is right? How did you determine that your God is the real God? What if the devil from another religion is trying to deceive you into believing in the Bible? How would you know? Science law is very exact. My God is the real God Who science proves exists. Just because He is talked about in some religious books but not in others, doesn't have anything to do with the fact that He exists. But you said yourself in your post about evolution: '' based on the idea that the physics of nature have been operating like they do now, for all of time past. Since we don't know this simple thing about physics (if it always acted like it does now)'' That it's not exact. Anyways, I fail to see how you determined that your God is the real God, show me where science proves that your God is the real one and the other ones are fake. However, my explanation of proof for God is written to a bunch of people who think that everything has been going on in the past like it is today. In addition, the word for physics is not the best word. The word should have as its meaning the part of physics that was applied at any one time. Cause and effect are universal throughout. Other parts of physics are stronger at some points, weaker at others, and theory in most. As for showing that My God is the real God, He is the only God. That's why the others are fake. Episode number six, dear people. Badecker, our idiotic apologist, keeps invoking one and only one thing: cause and effect. He calls it a fundamental physical law, although it is a physical notion and it would actually prove him wrong (causal efficacy needs numbers, not names). What Badecker is actually talking about is causal determinism, or in his case, theological determinism or sometimes fatalism determinism. This is more of a subject for metaphysics, of course. He says this: cause and effect are universal throughout. What he does not realize is that in this particular case, nobody can tell what is the cause and what is the effect. You can not certainly say God is the cause of Humans and you can not certainly say Humans is the cause of Gods, so you take probabilities, the repetition of happenings: have Humans ever created Gods in the past? The answer is yes, about 3000 that we know of. Have Gods created humans ever before? Well, we have the stories of 3000 Gods that all specifically created Humans. We understand why would people create 3000 Gods, as an explanation for the unknown, as an answer to their most deep questions of the time, some of which are still unanswered today. It could be possible for people to have created Gods because we have a precedent. In the other case, we have an inconsistency, because only one is claimed to have created, and there are 3000 claims, so basically we have no precedent. Now, we do not have enough material to have a final statement: x was the cause and y was the effect. But the probability of Humans having created Gods is 3000 times much larger than the probability of God creating Humans. That is how causality or cause and effect, if you prefer, works. If we would have had a smart Badecker, we would have seen something like this in his proof. However, what we see in his proof is simple theological determinism which is a copy of causal determinism but instead of calling the first one a cause they named it God. But enough with the serious stuff, let's see the retard in action again: 'As for showing that My God is the real God, He is the only God. That's why the others are fake.' - If I would tell this to my 13 year old grandson, he would laugh at me and call me stupid. I actually believe any kid would laugh at you if you would say what Badecker said. That is a fallacy in logic as never seen before: Why is Yahweh (i bet he doesn't know who Yahweh is) the only God? According to Badecker he is the only God because he is the only God and that is why the others are fake. I can't even explain this, it deranged me. Stay tuned folks, our retard is not letting us down. The illogical life of a deranged moron: BADecker This is quickly becoming my favorite read. Thanks!!!!!! [/quote] so once again our delusional willfully ignorant godswilling badecker has his ass handed to him by horace and all he can come up with is his silly merry go round lincs back to himself and some ridiculous shit about gods wrath and punishment. zzzzzzzz does not address any of horace's points because he cant. dude... let go of your mythical sky fairy beliefs and get out of your little bitcointalk thread echo chamber. embrace science. cut the crap with your pseudo intellectual bullshit.
Horace, thanx for making this thread interesting again, and keep up the great work. nice to see my favorite trolling buddy Badecker getting doses of rational reality .... who knows Horace may even cure him of his fairy tale delusionalism....hmmm.. nahhh 2nd thought, probably not. episode 7 incoming...

So... if homero does not serve time (this possibility has to unfortunately be considered) well at least he's got this never ending wonderful thread in his honour, (complete with numerous unflattering gifs, memes and the like) that doesn't exactly extol all his virtues over the years... so there's that....
(and one humongous interwebs ugly footprint, he may have some explaining to do for his kids...ya think?)

what i dont understand is why the US does request china to catch small vern? i mean they easily could like the snowden case had shown. or all the cryptsy customers could fund private headhunters to hunt him in china directly only 10000 customers pay 100$ and we have a 1mio reward on his catch China has no extradition treaty with USA, afaik
