Drug have been banned in our country but i want to try weed. somebody says weeds efect is very goood

Ideally, soft drugs such as weed should have been perfectly legal in any country. But the governments don't want to do that. IMO, weed is much more harmless than tobacco and alcohol. If tobacco can be legal, then why not weed?
Drugs don't have to be legal, but should not be penalized. This means that although they are illegal, if you're caught smoking a joint you can get a warning, be asked to throw it away, maybe get a ticket, just like you can get for pissing in a park or smoking in a non-smoking area. Making someone go to jail because of harmless smoking, or just posessing a drug that someone put in their pocket is ridiculous and does more harm than good.
4762  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Dont Deal With Cloudbet.com - SCAM on: April 11, 2017, 05:10:44 PM
I have been using Cloudbet for 2 days and they took the BTC's I deposited to the website on the 2nd day. I contacted their customer support and they had nothing to tell me that was good. They said I didn't transfer that amount over. I provided proof too but they didn't care. So basically, I got robbed. Don't deal with this website.
As this is a scam accusation I advise you to move it to the appropriate section and make it in a proper format.
It would be best if you included the proof of transaction (id or a screenshot of your account history at cloudbet) and the messages you received from customer support in original form.

A copper coil enclosed in a rock was found in the mountains near Kosovo. Looks like an ancient transformer and was dated as being 20000 years old.
This is just one of many artefacts ancient civilisations left on Earth.

They are buying $120 above the exchange rate. Why would they pay so much? Nobody will ever give you free money and their rates would look much more convincing if they were paying just $10 over the exchange price.  Going so much above the going price would be a suicide for any legitimate business, so here's my prediction. They will keep this scam going for a while until they gain enough trust to lure a whale and then they'll disappear with his coins and request paypal chargebacks.
4765  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Other Alternatives for Earning Bitcoin besides Signature Campaigns? on: April 11, 2017, 04:26:23 PM
I advise you to learn a trade and offer it in the services section. I've seen people doing such little, easy jobs, like looking things up in the internet, transcribing and translating documents, making forum signatures and many more. Even testing services can pay off. You can also manage a company's forum, or a thread on one of the existing forums for money. If you aren't lazy and want to work you will easily find a job here.

I'm not planning a trip to the US anyway, so this doesn't concern me, but I think they won't do it. It's a serious invasion of privacy and if they do it they'll lose in billion of USD (over 200 billion a year) the tourists are bringing to their country each year. Good luck, even Trump's pockets aren't that deep.
4767  Economy / Speculation / Re: No SegWit? No $10k Bitcoin. It's that simple.. on: April 11, 2017, 12:45:03 PM
The market has decided. Whether or not you have.

Core, BU, Classic, XT.. blah blah blah.

You can't fight the market. Or you'll lose.

And right now.. we're ALL losing.

The problem with segwit is that it is designed to never take place. You will never have more than a super majority for a change like this. So the designers are either stupid or don't want it to happen.

U will never have miners agree on anything with 95%. You can ask them if we should change the 21m cap and 5% will say yes.

I am supporter of segwit and want it implemented. But it would be much easier with a hf and much lower treshhold.
I think you might be right. There will always be that 5% of people who want to see the world burn. They won't follow the rest just to be different, to show they are individualistic nonconformists.
The percentage should be lowered to at least 80%, which already is a vast majority. If politicians need only 51% and it's considered fair, why do we need 95?
4768  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: April 10, 2017, 08:57:23 PM
I haven't saved any number of bitcoins till now. Past week I have started to use bitcoin and faucets have given small earnings. Now as campaigns are available for newbie I believe soon I'll start saving bitcoin.

Now you are newbie, that's why you couldn't earn from signature campaign. But also it is not enough for you to earn 1 bitcoin only behalf of signature campaign, than you could do any other ways, like trading. Because as you said you do faucets, I suggest you, do altcoin trading, it is more better than faucets. 

But I think now there are one or two active campaigns that are allowing newbies to participate in their campaign so its a good start for him and instead of wasting time on faucets sites I recommend you to start solving captchas and you will get paid in mrai coins and once you make enough mrai coins you can exchange it to bitcoins.
Starting journey in this forum, their joining signature campaign should be good practice if you have found that's great. In my opinion, do work in faucet sites or solving captcha seems like both of waste of time. Instead of this activity research yourself and obviously learn about trading.
That's true. Although you might think a faucet is free money it is not. You're spending valuable time and energy that you'll later have to resupply by eating, drinking and sleeping. Getting food drink and a bed requires money, much more than you can earn from a faucet in one day. With this in mind it's easy to come to a conclusion that faucets are a complete waste of time. Even writing for a campaign is a waste, because it won't cover your daily expenses. It's just a way to earn money while you're reading stuff on the forum.

If you gamble for fun you won't be disappointed. The profit may come or not, but don't expect it to.

A lot of people enjoy that adrenaline though, just from the prospect that they might win.
Adrenaline is fine, regret and bitterness is not.
4770  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-04-10] Banning Bitcoin Will See Government Losing out on Opportunities on: April 10, 2017, 08:48:02 PM
They are discussing how to deal with it. The word cryptocurrency is a bit unfortunate as it scares all those unfamiliar with the term. It suggest that they're dealing with a hidden currency, while it's functioning more like a payment processor with an ability to invest. Bitcoin in its current form doesn't pose a threat to governments or the banking system and shouldn't be feared and banned. It brings a lot of benefits to any ecosystem that accepts it and technologically advanced countries like Japan see it.
4771  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Again the attack again Muslim. on: April 10, 2017, 08:05:31 PM
At first,you said the terrorists belong to ISIS and since ISIS claimed,the terrorists were muslims and when i said ISIS is the evil child of israel,then you say even if they doesnot belong to ISIS,then also they are muslim terrorists.Most of guys just need a reason to blame the entire muslim community.Let them continue with their propaganda.In today's world,islam is the fastest growing religion especially in western countries and it will not be a surprise for us if the blamers say that muslim terrorists are responsible for fast spreading of islam religion.
I'm sorry, I don't follow. What were you trying to say?
It doesn't matter if ISIS claims to stand behind the attacks or not, the perpetrators are usually dead and can't confirm it. what matters is that they are Muslims or at least an overwhelming majority of them is. The last well known terrorist that wasn't Muslim was probably Breivik and it was many years ago. The Muslim community should openly fight those radicals, not support them if they don't want to blamed. Cut them off, don't treat them like your brothers in faith and you might change the way you're seen.
4772  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Yes, she was charged with assaulting a police officer on: April 10, 2017, 07:36:39 PM

The guy lacked training and experience.  He probably reacted to verbal insults.

Either way, he overreacted.  Guys like him should not be police officers.
He does not have what it takes to be a police officer.

He could have killed her.  Total power trip.

I agree she didn't pose a threat to him. He was stronger, armed, most likely had a pepper spray and a taser. There were many ways he could've dealt with her.
That throw to the concrete could've resulted in a broken jaw, concussion, a broken arm and many other injuries. Why didn't he slowly twist her arm to make her kneel and then handcuff her? It was a stupid, emotional show of force.

Where did you come from OP? You are sick of the scam sites but never had a bitcointalk account? How come you're a team of crypto enthusiasts that want to start a Bitcoin business, but none of you have used this forum? How much money do you have, because if you want to rent out your miner there are sites for that. To open a legit cloud mining business you need some serious hash power, and that means a lot of money.
4775  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Snapchat first investor thinks bitcoin could realistically be worth $500,000 on: April 10, 2017, 07:06:41 PM
The important part is "by 2030." 13 years is such a long period for cryptocurrency, that it could die and be reborn at least twice. Take a look a t the charts, we watched Bitcoin reach ATH of over $1000 in 2013 and drop to $150 just over a year later. We can only speculate how many similar events will happen in 13 years. We could even have a world war by that time...
4776  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Okcoin and Huobi extends suspension of bitcoin withdrawal until on: April 10, 2017, 06:51:03 PM
I thought the Chinese are workaholics and they'll deal with this problem fast, but no. I guess it's not about making rules and updating the sites. It's hard to comply with the government that doesn't really know what it wants. They'd like exchanges to close down and Bitcoin to disappear, but they don't want to fight it openly. The best idea according to them is to be as annoying as possible and try to deter new investors... Slow it down, buy time, maybe it dies in the meantime  Roll Eyes
4777  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Again the attack again Muslim. on: April 08, 2017, 11:48:34 AM
Most of the attacks are not carried out by muslims.Whatever US and israeli media says,media around the world starts vommiting it without any investigation.We could see US govt always shouting that Al qaeda is responsible for all terror attacks and now US has found another organization named ISIS and once again started shouting ISIS is responsible for all terror acts.Could any one say a valid reason for where Al qaeda has gone now?Do use your common sense for a while and think whats the truth? ISIS is the evil child of israel.But,whatever we muslims say,most of people will turn a deaf ear because through continuous news against islam,your brains are brain washed.
What are you talking about? Are we living in two different worlds?

The November 2015 Paris attacks were a series of coordinated terrorist attacks that occurred on Friday 13 November 2015 in Paris, France and the city's northern suburb, Saint-Denis.[9] Beginning at 21:16 CET, three suicide bombers struck outside the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, during a football match. The attackers killed 130 people,[2] including 89 at the Bataclan theatre.[11] Another 368 people were injured,[4] almost 100 seriously.[5][6] Seven of the attackers also died, while the authorities continued to search for accomplices. The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) claimed responsibility for the attacks,[7][8] saying that it was retaliation for the French airstrikes on ISIL targets in Syria and Iraq.

On 19 December 2016, a truck was deliberately driven into the Christmas market next to the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church at Breitscheidplatz in Berlin, left 12 people dead and 56 others injured. One of the victims was the truck's original driver, Łukasz Urban, who was found shot dead in the passenger seat. The perpetrator was Anis Amri, a Tunisian failed asylum seeker. Four days after the attack, he was killed in a shootout with police near Milan in Italy. An initial suspect was arrested and later released due to lack of evidence.[2][3] The event was designated as a terrorist attack. The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL/ISIS/IS) claimed responsibility for the attack, saying the attacker answered its calls to target the citizens of states that are fighting against it.
[/b]

On 22 March 2017, a terrorist attack took place in the vicinity of the Palace of Westminster in London, seat of the British Parliament. The attacker, 52-year-old Briton Khalid Masood, drove a car into pedestrians on the pavement along the south side of Westminster Bridge and Bridge Street, injuring more than 50 people, four of them fatally. He was born Adrian Russell Elms, but later changed the name to Adrian Russell Ajao when he took the name of his stepfather. He changed his name to Khalid Masood after he converted to Islam.

You really need to stop living in a dream world and accept the facts. These people were Muslims and were quite open about it, even if they had no connection with IS or any other big terrorist organization, they were Muslim terrorists.
4778  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin changes finance - but for the better or the worse? on: April 08, 2017, 10:49:42 AM
Bitcoin offers an alternative to traditional (fiat based) finance.

There's no interest that's inherent in this system. There's no mechanism for easy lending. There's no money supply manipulation. There's no lending off of a balance sheet (only) asset, i.e., imaginary money.

Does Bitcoin offer a positive evolution to finance? If so, how?

It doesnt. What it does is it disrupts the status quo and intends to give the people a way to make transactions without the banks being needed. Think of BTC as something that should be separate from the financial system but we could still do what the banks can without them.

Even if it disrupts status quo, it brings forth good changes. Even if it does bring good changes like bringing ease to online transactions and of course a good substite to credit cards, it also brings bad changes like bringing a new means for money laundering and more. To sum it all up, bitcoin changes finance not for the better and not for the worse with the intent to ease transactions which is good.
You don't understand, disrupting the status quo is a good thing. It makes people think about alternatives instead of sitting comfortably in their chairs and taking things for granted.
Fiat has its disadvantages and it's not the ultimate form of payment, but it's been with us for so long that for a typical person it's hard to comprehend they could live without it.

I will not be surprised if the man wanted in connection to this barbaric act is one of the so called refugees that were allowed into the country. Its been their method of attacks recently, ploughing cars into a populated area.RIP to all the lost souls
That is because the Swedes are extremely polite towards migrants. They are giving them money, jobs, houses and complete freedom. The EU parliament has recently voted on allowing the Muslims to have their own courts. What does it mean? Are they above the law of the countries they're migrating to? Maybe it's time to wake up and start deporting the offenders instead of allowing them to judge themselves according to their own barbaric laws.
4780  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there any genuine cloud mining with at least lower profit than investment? on: April 07, 2017, 11:14:15 PM
Does anyonw know any of the genuien cloud mining site?
Genuine : No any cloud mining can be considered as genuine/legit investment opportunity.
Cloud mining: They run just like ponzi schemes, most of them sell more mining power than they actually have.

Its better to invest in hardware mining if you have cheap electricity rather than investing and waiting for several years to get back what you have invested in cloud mining.
Isn't hashnest at least genuine and legit? I'm not saying profitable, but if you're really drawn towards cloud mining this would be your best choice.
Investing in cloud mining is a bad idea in general because the return period is extremely long and you can't access your hardware or money during that period.
