Thanks Jbear. I must admit with all the BCH forks flying around I am losing track of which BCH is supposed to be the real BCH. Is it the Peter R or Alex F version or someone else’s?

@MarkFriedenbach https://twitter.com/MarkFriedenbach/status/1030211193544134658I will be giving a talk at #ScalingBitcoin on how a block size increase up to 3600x the present size and a change of proof-of-work can be achieved with a fully backwards compatible soft-fork—old clients see all transactions and valid SHA256 block headers. This is not good news if onchain. I hope this is a sidechain solution. |

If you are in Tahiti, do not drink Alcool de Menthe straight from the bottle while walking along the beach sidewalk, no matter how good an idea it may seem at the time.

Wtf. Chaos and confusion erupted across Venezuela, and most stores were shuttered on Saturday, after president Nicolas Maduro announced that the government would enact a massive currency devaluation, implement a new minimum wage, hike taxes, and also raise gasoline prices for most citizens even as the country struggles with the greatest hyperinflation on record, surpassing even that of the Weimar Republic.
As a result of the enacted actions, the new version of the bolivar will be pegged to the value of the state cryptocurrency, the etro, which according to Bloomberg amounts to a 95% devaluation of the official rate, and will trade in line with where the black market was; the government will also raise the minimum wage more than 3,000 percent, which works out to about $30 a month. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-08-19/venezuela-chaos-after-maduro-announces-massive-95-devaluation-new-fx-rate-tied |

Looks like Peter R has better things than to come here and extol the virtues of Bcash lol.  |

No matter how good your opsec is, the more you interact the bigger the probability of leaking some critical data that could turn valuable by cross-checking with other available data.
ie: even if you removed the critical exif data in this case (gps location) from the original picture you still forgot to re-scrub the files after cropping. In this case it is useless to know that you used an Apple device (it could be pinpointed to the exact one, but I am too lazy to carry on a profile comparison) to edit/crop the picture, but it could have been something more critical and worth following in other cases.
Yeah I’m definitely not opening a dark net market. |

I went to one in Germany where it's a circle with several urinals pointing inward. I think the center fills with pee and then...profit??
Historically, they used urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot. Once a day it was taken and sold to the tannery. If you had to do this to survive, you were ‘piss poor.’ But worse than that were the really poor folks who couldn’t even afford to buy a pot. They ‘didn’t have a pot to piss in’ and were considered the lowest of the low.” |

Thank you very much Hairy!
It has been a very nice game. Any more of these in the future?
From the FTSE 100 price it seems the picture was taken on Friday after session close, are you still there for vacation?
Yes I have more planned for when I go somewhere else interesting. Glad you enjoyed. I thought my opsec was pretty clean (scrubbed the Exif data) but your observation regarding the timing of the photo is dead on. Friday night NYC time. I am also in far too good a mood to argue politics any further so will need to leave that to another time! |

If people are moving to SF to use the public toilets, there are probably bigger problems.

As a leftie I would suggest maybe you need more public toilets in SF.
Why stop there ? Why not just argue for more public housing ? I don’t know much about public housing. Public toilets are cheap and quick to build to address what seems to be an important public health issue. |

As a leftie I would suggest maybe you need more public toilets in SF. I take it addressing the symptoms rather than the cause is the conservative approach.

It’s worse to be a leftie than a homosexual on this forum so you got that going for you.

Yeah I dunno mic. It seems like a remake of Die Hard? Most recent movie I saw was Den of Thieves which I enjoyed but they tried to turn it into the Usual Suspects and didn’t quite pull it off.

Congrats Bitserve! and honorable mentions to Bones and Xyzzy who were so damn close and Gab0 who first spotted the exact photo location Fucking Amazing Sleuthing guys. I am really impressed. Never expected anyone to get the exact location of the newspaper stand where the shot was taken. And when I posted the very first picture and people were saying New York, I was baffled as to how you could possibly figure that out from the photo. There is actually a sign saying West 47th Street in the background between the red and blue shirted men but I think too blurry to read with the image compression.  Spirall and Mic you both instantly guessed NY from the very first picture. How did you manage to do that?

I should hope there's more to that case than meets the eye. There should be reasonable belief that an offence has been committed for a warrant. I don't think receiving a large sum from an exchange would be sufficient for money laundering charges without some kind of incriminating evidence (IANAL of course). He is a 4chaner. That’s reasonable cause right there. Pro tip: HSBC are mercenary and DGAF. |
