It has seriously degraded in the quality of posts. Too many trolls, too much FUD these days.

Bots have been around for quite a while. Even I am contemplating about writing one, BUT in my case I have no experience in writing such programs so I might not do it after all.
523  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is no hedge against inflation - i unadopted it. on: September 26, 2014, 12:54:43 PM
My thoughts are that your research is lacking the big picture. and you need to do more research.

5 years ago bread was $2 now its $2.50
pick ANY item in the world you want to buy and then look at the price now.
beef, oil, car fuel, pepsi, beer.

now for another example, using bitcoin this time:
5 years ago 2 pizza cost 10k bitcoin. now 2 pizza cost 0.1bitcoin. meaning to can get 200,000 pizza's for the same 10k bitcoins

learn about what inflation really is, and dont worry about the small day to day price changes, much like economists dont worry about day to day special offers of 50c off bread, or 'happy hour' in bars. or buy one get one free on pepsi.. the big picture long term is that bitcoin is DEFLATIONARY and legal tender is INFLATIONARY.

as for your unadoption.
lets say you only had 1BTC and now have cashed out
i dare you to hold your bank notes for just 2 years. and on that piece of paper write out a shopping list of things that you can buy with it. ($400 shopping list).

and in 2 years lets see how many of those items on your shopping list you can buy. and compare it to purchases using bitcoin.

goodluck with your FIAT savings  Grin
For once you are correct.

10 years ago I could buy a lot of things with the same amount of money I use today to buy only a few. Even bread costs twice as much as before.

@RyNinDaCleM

Reading up on Elliot Waves, it doesnt mention anything about ABC, or these numbered boxes you have drawn.  Perhaps you can give us a list of what you are using to do TA. I see you are using Elliot Waves, ABC of something, Trend lines that you use to draw triangles.

I wonder if this type of TA requires some form of abstract thinking that I lack.

Even after reading up on EW, I am still not clear on what we are seeing drawn on your charts.

Personally I have not been at it for as long as you have, and I have not done anything related to TA for 4-5 months so I have forgotten a few things, but generally I am bad at it, I knew we were going down from this recent swing to 450, but I couldn't set on an entry price, I just cant figure them out.

A quick test to see if you're valuable is to login and do this;-

Code:
env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"

If you see;-

Code:
vulnerable
this is a test

You need to do something about it.  For it actually to be exploited by anyone requires a few other other things to be true about the system (webserver running an old style cgi script for example) but it should not be taken lightly.

I have a number of systems that I am patching that are vulnerable at the command line, none of them could be exploited to my knowledge at the moment but it is important none the less.

Neil
There is another article on the matter that even the patched version is still vulnerable, as the patch is incomplete.

Any chance the Bash exploit was used here?

Doesn't Bitcoin use the shell to execute wallet notify scripts?

Its called an infrared camera. This isn't exactly new tech.

Are you really suggesting this is true?
Considering its possible to detect what somebody is talking about behind soundproof glass simply by observing the leaves of a plant or some bag of chips, yes.

Yeah but this is saying they can detect the heat on the keys of your laptop from a plane. You're telling me their infrared cameras can see through my roof, and 2nd storey?


no
I think they mean from cameras installed on airplanes.

It might render keyloggers useless, but then you'd have something innovative as mouse logger.

if(TopWindow(bitcoin) && wallet_encrypted_locked)
    mouse_movement_log();

Every single day people have bots running that identify transactions that are weird and spendable by anyone or weak brainwallets or re-used K value.

Your odds? 100% loss odds. I have martingaled before, from 0.00001 to 1.20 btc loss, after I had a consecutive 16 streak loss.

This is why people call it martinfail.
