Right, it’s low enough now. Logging onto laptop to buy 0.5BTC.

Thank you for your service.

I’ve bought 4 BTC so far this week. Because incremental ladder trading.

Clean water would be my chief concern. Here's a good checklist in case you expect to be without power and/or clean water for a few weeks. It's a hurricane preparedness site but this is the stuff you'd need to think about...
https://hurricanesafety.org/prepare/hurricane-safety-checklists/

I used this last time I was in a hurricane, worked great, there are several similar products on the market...
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W2BQT4G

And of course, it's important that you know how to use all this stuff *before* you need to.
Water is a serious bitch, the stuff is heavy and takes up a *lot* of space. That said, 5 gallon jugs are not too expensive and every house has both a nice 40-50 gallon water tank, a couple of gallons in the pipes in the event things are really weird. I've tried rain barrels, but they fall apart after a few years and collect mosquitoes and odd things. Maybe a cistern.

If it rains where you live park your truck so water collects in the bed. Instant water for toilet flushing.

(Edit: That aquapod thing is a pretty good idea. I'll keep that in mind)

Pretty much every major metro in the US has at least one place you can buy used, good condition 1000L IBC totes for about $200. That’ll hold like 9 person-months of survival water.

Of course, one need be careful about what’s previously been stored in them. But they’re typically clean. Store some water in one for a couple months, then submit a sample for testing to your local water test peeps.

I wonder what became of cousin nutildah's BSV short. Grin

I know what happened to my BCH short  Wink


Congrats. To both of you, I might imagine.

For my part, my balls are as big as my bags.

Btw last time we past Vegeta we went up pretty fast, remember Vegeta is an iconic character with some real dragon ball Z powers.... One that doesn't let himself to be taken easily... Never saw the episodes? The guy is extremely powerful, probably BTC will be the only one to truly defeat him, time will tell when.

Wait... what?

Now, I never was much interested in Dragon Ball Z, but my kid used to watch it all the time, so I’ve been exposed. Accordingly, I may be laboring under a misconception. But...

My understanding is that it is not Vegeta whose power is over 9000. Rather, Vegeta is describing the power of some other character.

No?

Just imagine finding a USB stick on the street, all crushed by passing cars, and taking it home, repairing it, and discovering that it contained the private key to thousands of BTC. Wet dream?

Has happened to me once (sans the BTC). Found the remains of a USB stick on the street (only the PCB had remained, and badly damaged). I tried to repair it, but couldn't. Could it have contained Satoshi's coins? No one will ever know.

I'm paranoid like that...

Paranoid people — at least those who think the issue through — don’t pick up random USB sticks found lying about.

heh yeah that worked for stuxnet.

of course badusb etc

i never use flashdrives that have been in other systems. i just destroy them if returned.

EDIT read only (ie finalized) cds are my friend.

Open it in knopix or a vm fs what can happen exactly?

Exactly. I always do this, and also use VM to test-drive apps before installing on my main (host) PC. No viruses, no malware, no corruptions, no problems!

Edit: ...and always disable AutoRun after a Windows installation.

Always do ... what? Always attach found USB to a computer running Knoppix from write-only media? Always attach found USB to a computer running a VM? Always attach found USB to a computer running Knoppix from write-only media within a VM? Great.

What protects your BIOS/FW? What protects your hypervisor?

No way Trump is up to this crisis. You can't make a deal with a virus. Maybe it'll even get him, and those other boomer politicos.

Looks like Craig finally dropped a few hits of X. Maybe he'll come to the profound introspective realization that being a scammer sucks.

Dr. Craig please. Lips sealed

I can only wonder, if jbear was a segregated witness, to this priceless moment in time.

Hey, I _do_  at least get that that is a WTF moment. OTOH, What, Me Worry?

I was vacationing elsewhere. I guess that means that I had already segregated myself.

In my opinion it is this:

It is one thing to find an alternative protocol to Bitcoin interesting, or believe in it as an investment.

I don't agree with this view, but people have the right to make choices, even if they ultimately prove to be wrong.  Live and let live.

However, going so far as refusing to condemn the objectively indefensible, places someone beyond the possibility of respect.  A fellow traveler ceases to be a friend, which is a shame.

Craig Wright's lack of principles and honesty is objectively indefensible.  This has been proven in a court of law.  He has lied under oath; it is not unreasonable to conclude he lives a tissue of lies.

When any man is obviously of sound mind and intelligent, but still disregards the obvious and will not condemn this plainly malignant, transparent liar, one can only conclude he is either; as corrupt as the man he defends, too egotistical, or too weak and foolish to look in the mirror and admit that he might be wrong.

And again, you conflate my support of BSV with support of CSW. Just no.

Dashjr has stated it is legitimate to kill all non-xtians. Does that taint all of BTC? No. For the person and the coin are two different things.

Do you think TRX and Justin Sun are two different things? Do you think TRX is not tainted by Justin?

If you believe that, then I have some TRX to sell you.  

There are plenty of reasons to completely ignore TRX. So I do.

Irrelevant false equivalence is irrelevant.

“I don’t like your question because I can’t answer it truthfully without revealing my corruption so I am going to pretend that I am above answering it”.

Have you considered running for office?

Don’t be a pussy.  Answer the question. Yes or No.

I answered the question. TRX is irrelevant to me. I can't be bothered to spend the time to look into it. Perhaps you have infinite amounts of free time on your hands. I do not.

Don’t pretend ignorance of Justin Sun and TRX - it’s completely transparent  You always run away from hard questions.

Stop being a pussy and answer the question.   Can Justin Sun be separated from TRX.  Yes or No.  

Go fuck yourself. I have no idea, and I can't be arsed to look into it.

But maybe we can figure it out together. What control does Justin Sun have over TRX? For example, can he censor transactions?

Yes.  Justin Sun can censor transactions the same way Calvin Ayre can



Stop deflecting and running away from the question.  Answer the question.  Yes or No.  

If Justin Sun can censor txs on TRX, then yes, Justin Sun has undue control over TRX.

Your implication that Ayre has such control over BSV is just embarrassing ignorance.

ANY SHA256 miner can guarantee that BSV will live. All they need do is not cease mining.

Now go fuck yourself.

You sound salty. Poor thing.

Your moral compass sounds way off. Broken.
Poor(er) thing.

You know nothing of my morals.

OTOH, Excoriating someone merely because they have a conflicting opinion of the relative value of the details of otherwise similar technical implementations seems to be rather broken morality to me. But whatevs. You do you.

Oh no you don't. Relevant equivalence is exactly right.

There are reasons, ripping to infinity - to completely ignore BSV. So we do.
Yet, you come here with your dog and piss all over, trying to trick people into believing BSV is anything but a scam.

Why is it that you don't post in the relative threads?

There's no long term plan here, at this point even if he somehow manages to prove that he owns Satoshi's private and gpg keys, i don't see how anyone would want to support a blockchain network with an "owner". BSvers can't be that dumb, or can they

He likes what Satoshi did

He doesn't like what blockCore did to Satoshi 's BitCoin

He might be Satoshi and keeps the trolls running

So far that's cool

 Grin

The issue is that BSv idiots fail to see that no one wants a "decentralized" network with an "owner".

The issue is that anti-BSV idiots fail to see -- notwithstanding CSW's statement quoted above -- that BSV no more has an "owner" than does BTC.

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! He's only the chief scientist of the protocol and self proclaimed creator, a patent troll who copyrighted the whitepaper and trying to build a patent forest around the tech, other than that BSv is as decentralized as bitcoin. Keep trying to preach new n00bs in. Even in his best case scenario miners will just go behind tor, then who he's going to sue? But go ahead go fight the internet that always turns out well  Roll Eyes

Correct. BSV is just as decentralized as BTC. Craig's escapades notwithstanding. As they are irrelevant from the standpoint of the protocol and the chain.

Shut the fuck up. You can't be this stupid. At this point you have just become another meme in the long list of idiots who spent their days on this thread trying to bash BTC because they had mental problems or some social hysteria disorder.

Stop embarrassing yourself with your altcoin non-sense. Any idiot who thinks CSW is even potentially satoshi is a moron of the highest order. Like world class idiot.

So just shut the fuck up and go away. No one likes you. I just took you off ignore long enough to rip you another asshole, you asshole.

Aww. You hurt my feelings.  Roll Eyes

You ineffectual idiot. I ain't goin' nowheres. Deal.
