Mmm. I know you're working on something quite significant -- a magazine. It would be a shame if something happened to it, you know -- maybe find its way on the main forums, hmm?

Actually, I have a friend right here -- he might do just that. Isn't that right, Leon?





What the gol damn hell is yer problem asslicker. Im gonna shove this headset so far up Leons ass and out dere his mouth he'll be able to floss his intest-ines by holding both ends.

I think Matthew is playing with you guys, i.e. expressing the opinion he really doesn't stand for.
I do that sometimes as well just to see where the conversation is going.

Every sane person would understand by now that all the crap that we've been through and have been taught in the school is a delusion.
It felt different when we were younger, but I always had this gut feeling that something was wrong.

From all the countries I went to school, only the USA has this pledge of allegiance nonsense. Not even Nazi Germany had this nonsense. Maybe only North Korea.

In fact before WWII, US schools used to do the Pledge with a Nazi-looking Roman salute



rofl. Creepy.


I think Boss is atlas (sorry if wrong boss). Anyway, I hold many similar opinions (flag worship behavior is creepy, going to church is creepy, etc)... but it is important to understand the value of an opinion. Opinions are like assholes right??

Do something and show you are productive, then people will take you seriously. If you haven't (or fail to succeed at) proving your worth, expect to be treated like an asshole.

Of course he's Atlas. He's been banned by Theymos and keeps coming back because he thinks we need him here or else we just won't function be able to function.  Roll Eyes

UPDATE: Initial design is complete, but I made some changes to the flatplan again for effeciency and presentation so it will be redesigned again until Monday at which time we will all take one more look at it, replace any photos that are not appropriate and then approve it for print.

This will all be simpler from Issue #2 people. The first issue is always the hardest they say.

@Bruno: We've actually thought of doing something like that, but right now the costs of printing anything other than -just the magazine- don't make sense. Everything that costs money has to first have a significant demand. Let's toss these ideas around for a bit and see what we can't do for Issue #2 (which by the way, I have more good surprises for everyone in store  Cheesy)

We'll be doing a full product review in 2 weeks when they hand over a single Vladimir to test and photograph in our UK office for BitTalk Media. Look for it in the first issue of BitTalk Magazine.
No BFL singles and no magazine....

I don't know if I made a public announcement of this or not (I think I did in the magazine thread), but Butterfly Labs informed me that they will not be able to release soon enough to meet the deadline for the first issue, but are actually interested in advertising in the magazine as well. I think this is all just a matter of time. Article such as product reviews are not that time sensitive though and we can do it whenever it is released. No point in reviewing something that isn't released yet. Sorry if that wasn't made clear before.

For the record, I also bought one of these so I have my own reasons to hunt them down to the ends of the earth if they were scammers. ^_^

(And for those of you thinking that will have a bias effect on any review, note that I am not the one doing the review, Vladimir Marchenko of the Bitcoin magazine is, and he has no intention of ever using anyone's mining hardware but his own.)

I mean, there would be some stupid noob who would do this to people like Phinnaeus or D&T when they got some terse answer they didn't like, for chrissake, not to mention LoupGaroux would be gone in a heartbeat and I would no longer have a master troll to learn from...

ROTFL

My first $10 would go to banning the OP.
Cheesy

I'd contribute to that cause.  Let's hope he has deep pockets to keep buying himself back in.
Something tells me Atlas' mommy and daddy aren't going to pay him thousands of dollars a week to feel relevant on a forum and fight everyone's obvious contempt for him.

Does anyone else find it odd how a self proclaimed freedom advocate/libertard (who never actually does any advocating) is constantly obsessed with bans and segregating the poor? What a poor confused ritalin ridden soul.

In Hong Kong, you can get a business permit in less than one day. America is a different story.

I'd also like to point out that the type of business directly affects the tome required to register. Ask Zhou Tong if he can get a permit for Bitcoinica in a day. We all know its more like 6 months.

As ridiculous as the concept may seem, many Americans regardless of their reasoning, feel proud to be a part of a country that has single handedly proven that freedoms and democracy are possible. There is no country like America on earth, for the good or the bad.

If America is that great why are you in South Korea?

I've mentioned numerous times on these forums that I do not agree with the way America is being run into the ground in recent years. My reasons for being in South Korea though are entirely superficial. I'm an oppurtunist with yellow fever. I was destined for Asia.

Do you know how small Hong Kong is? You can do the same in most small countries.

It's interesting you think Hong Kong is mildly fair or nice in comparison to the USA. Did you not know that people regularly clip their toenails on the subways, that the pollution is unbearable and that you are fined HK$1500 for spitting?

Like I said, the only way your points ever work for you is when you redefine things the way you want or selectively choose supporting points only. This is a true sign of someone without any understanding of society.

That's just a fraction of the yearly inflation rate. They just don't want anybody cashing-in on their printing press but selected constituents.

Yes, those bad bad men keeping people from printing their own money and stealing trillions of dollars from everyone. Why, we should all be allowed to steal from anyone we please.
The people never owned the money in the first place. Money is based on debt, remember? It's printed by The Federal Reserve and given to the people with a charge of interest.

Please go to a Ripple community and steal some of the debt (and the purchasing power of that debt) and tell them it's not theft because it's "just debt".

Well, that says a lot about Ripple's future as a currency.

Ripple is accounting. What it says is that you once again have no original arguments and keep getting all your information from libertard podcasts. Go back to reddit where they appreciate flakey, baseless, and thoughtless extremism.

This goes for flags too, outside the US, you don't see normal people hoisting up flags of their country.

The Constitution allows for the states to secede.

Sure does! And some have even considered it! But the negative impact on the citizens (who ideally wouldn't want to lose the communist benefits of the Federal government supporting them in times that their own production, manufacturing, etc isn't doing so hot) has kept them from ever going through with it.

Personally, I think Ron Paul has the right idea. Minimize the federal government influence. The thing is, even then people like you won't be happy because you'll say "This state is corrupt!" instead of "This country is corrupt!" because you're a loudmouth who doesn't get any actual work done. In that case though, I truly hope you move out of the USA ASAP so you can find a country that requires no effort to maintain and still produces wealth around the clock without a single threat of invasion.

The original revolution was the only worth fighting in my book. I don't see the benefits to come from anything else.
Guess what-- when you pledge allegiance to the flag (the one that was created back then), you are in fact giving honor to those who died fighting in the original revolution. Nobody pledges allegiance to the flag for current activities. Has anyone ever done that in the history of the USA? Have you ever heard a President say, "Now let's take a moment to remember what I just did just now. Please stand and put your hand over your heart to address me the way I should be"? You're delusional (big surprise).

The right to vote on a federal level is more of a ball-and-chain than a freedom.
Yes, rights are balls and chains. Having the ability to change things creates responsibility doesn't it. Isn't it great how that works? Why don't you try taking some responsibility for the America that you aren't helping to change asshole and stop blaming it on everyone else while you play TF2 with your parents money?

It allows the many to rob the few and the property holders through a centralized regime. How lovely?
Voting is robbing now?  Roll Eyes


The problem is "the system". There needs to be many systems with various rules of conduct according to their respective cultures.
Cultures are based on systems, idiot. If the problem is "the system", then the problem is effectively "culture".

There is no America.
Oh okay, I was wondering what the symbols on my passport mean, the taxes I pay, the benefits I receive, the responsibilities I share, and the men and women who work hard to keep people happy, healthy and sane on middle North American region. Usually we just call it "America". You can make up new definitions if you'd like (it seems to be the only way you have to win an argument).

I support Ron Paul because he represents my goal of dismantling the entire Federal Government. He is not a part of the system; he is against it and so am I.
Lies. Ron Paul loves the system. He is the most pro-constitution elective since the founding fathers. He doesn't want to dismantle the system, he wants to reassign responsibilities in a way that allows freedoms to be properly given with choice. Also, as a Doctor, he is against abortion. He would make it illegal if he could. By that alone, he is "evil" and "against your freedoms and liberties". Go back to school tomorrow and ask your libertarian teacher the answer to the next question so we can continue this.

I am for many different systems for many different people.
Good! That's the first interesting thing you've said in this entire thread. Lead with that next time.
