Minus the altering your mind part, Dank is actually rather close to a few existing theories of time travel. It is true, time really doesn't exist. Its just the progression of events measured in an evenly divisible amount of smaller "time" units based on the sun/light in general.
Personally, I believe time travel to be possible, however it is rather useless. It almost always requires moving faster than the speed of light which I believe will be possible in the future. However, all you would be able to do is alter your own perception. Light may be hitting your eyes from 30 minutes in the past, however people are still going to continue progressing as normal.
You really think we'll ever have a vessel that can reach those speeds and safely? All you would be doing is going really really fast, not actually going into the future. You're right that 'time' doesn't exist though. I beginning to think that time travel has nothing to do with speed.

One of Bitcoin's betting sites come to mind, albeit I'm not citing one of them thanks to last April's fiasco. The awards will air on February 30, 2014, (March 2, for those who don't observe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_History_Month). I first learnt about this flick via NPR late last year, and just now viewed the trailer. I truly believe this one will win Best Picture of the Year, considering... ~TMI BTCITW

Seriously, I like it, especially if there's a Bitcoin logo on the hat. Also, I would wear those custom ordered Nike shoes bearing a Bitcoin-themed motif once shown on this forum but am having trouble hunting that pic down. Help me find it, all.

PS: The tie has to be orange.

"Girlfriend, why don't you ask your dad if you could have that one bitcoin he owns so that you can buy a car, then we can curse the strip and pick up boys?"
"Dad, can I have that one bitcoin you own so that I can buy a car?"
"Sure, but you'll have to give me a blowjob first."
"Dad, that's disgusting!"
"Did you ask your dad for that bitcoin?"
"Yes, but he insisted on me giving him a blowjob first, thus I refused."
"Give him the blowjob, then you'll get the bitcoin to buy a car so that we can pick up guys and give them blowjobs."
"Dad, I'm here to give you that blowjob for your bitcoin."
"Great!"
"Dad, your dick tastes like shit!"
"I have some other bad news for you, princess. Your brother now has the private key."

franky1, this reply was HUGE for me because it meant that someone gets the importance of this project being about transacting in only bitcoin. In fact, in the Project Rules ( www.projectbitcoin.com/details), Rule #4 makes crystal clear the point you are underscoring. I'll quote: No confusion. Transactions must always be in bitcoin. No fiat currency, no credit card fees, and no bank fees may be a part of any transaction. There is no way around this point. For this project to be legit, there simply can't be any funny work. It's got to be as straightforward as possible - transactions in bitcoin... that hopefully grow increasingly larger with each transaction. As such, when I messaged Phinnaeus Gage more 3 hours ago, I clarified that exact point!! He still hasn't gotten back to me, but I can't imagine he - or anyone else who wants to see the full possibility of bitcoin be realized - would be opposed to these rules. Again, frankly thanks for the comment and for elucidating publicly a really important value of the project. Really appreciated! I, too, appreciate Frank's concern. To be clear, if Martin Basurto's hand-tooled leather wares is considered for this venerable endeavor, the transaction will be via bitcoins but, just as BitPay is used as a payment provider to convert bitcoins to fiat for their customer base, I will be converting any bitcoin payment(s) to Martin for his services into fiat. In fact, I could even use my barn wood website that has a special section allocated for leather wares that uses BitPay as the payment provided, thus allowing them to earn their fee for said service, of which has been used once prior for a gentleman in Belgium for the purchase of a Bitcoin-themed wallet. ~Bruno Kucinskas

It be funny is someone were to overlay the same speech he made about the 65nm miners. Just remember where we all were last year? https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/692-bfl-asic-status.html#post10249Here is the currently estimated timeline, and while this is subject to change of course, it's pretty solid at this time:
Week of January 13th Travel to packaging facility for final prep and walkthrough Confirm travel plans and trip details with lead ASIC engineer for trip to fab
Week of January 20th Final assembly facility prep Leave for fab at the end of the week
Week of January 26th Final chips roll off the line Grab suitcase, a BMW or a Peugeot and make a break for the airport, Ronin style (You can see Tom about 6 minutes, 20 seconds into the video) Arrive California at chip packaging plant KC facility starts assembly process of units to drop PCB into
Week of February 3rd Chips packaged Packaged chips sent to assembly house Assembled PCB is set for final testing and MCU programming Notify users to start sending their FPGA units or BTC for trade in participants Bulk assembled PCBs arrive in KC, we start dropping PCBs into waiting units Boxing/labeling for shipment
Week of February 10th We implement the 1/3 shipping plan en mass 1/3 of our assembled units will go to new orders in FIFO 1/3 of our assembled units will go to upgrade orders 1/3 will be randomly selected from both groups
We descend upon the Post Office, DHL, UPS and FedEx like a horde of angry locust

you never been to court have you? fight the battles that you can win not ones you want to win.. in fact anything you know you can't win you shouldn't even bring up. Go after what they said in the early refund responses
They attorneys taking it on contingency on the amounts above and beyond the offered settlements sure don't seem to agree with you. Everyone can also see the clear and explicit promises of 1:1 Bitcoin refunds both in public and in private communications. By all means, anyone who somehow didn't get the message that 1:1 refunds on failure were part of the deal and didn't make their purchasing decision because of it: take the settlement— leave the assets for the recovery of those of us who relied on the original terms. You missed what I said.. I said go for what they said in the early refund replies.. which was what you say. I am just saying don't think they advertised the selling of the miners at btc prices. They never posted that like Avalon did. Should just harp on what they promised as refunds in full btc. Why give them an area for them to make a case.. just focus on the refund side of the promise At the most basic level the courts are bound to uphold what is fair and right... they will do this though it usually takes a while. $5,600 back in August does equal $5,600 today in us dollars, sort of... Which, for all intensive purposes, is what it is as the USD is the coin of the realm. So, for this part I am saying that you can take the refund (offer) as it stands and be happy, or try door #2 #2 Now let me be clear, this likely does not apply to all of you: If you have in your possession a written sales agreement, signed, that has all the transactions listed in btc and can prove with transaction records that you compensated them for the trade in btc you have a good case. Again, contract law is very specific. If I agree in writing to trade you ten magic beans for a unicorn and the contract guarantees a refund of said beans, in this case which has been both expressed, and implied from HF Admin repeatedly {btc=beans}, then when my unicorn don't show I shall have my beans, not any beans, my magic beans. Point of order: A contractual agreement was entered into by two parties, one party is in breach of contract. End of story; to what extent the courts will decide. The fact that these are dated products, meaning their value rapidly decreases in a short amount of time, is also a compensable argument. BTW, best hope that the San Francisco judge doesn't have a twinkie in his eye, otherwise Team Skropenis wins.

Bruno, thank you for going through all the candidates in detail every time! I really have to reserve some time to ocassionaly chime in on this too..
Ente
Stop in anytime to double check and vett any NPO that's being considered. The same is true for anybody reading this thread whether you are a member of Bitcoin 100 or not. The more eyeballs, the better. Virtually, everything that Bitcoin 100 is doing/does is transparent. At this penning, I'm hard-pressed to offer up an example of anything we do behind the scenes to counter that statement. Sometimes, we may not be the most organized charity, but for what we are and what we do, we'll accomplished a helluva lot. <not meant as a pat on my/our back(s)> ~Bruno Kucinskas
