Ah well, sticks and stones may break my bones...

...and the time I tried and failed a 65' vertical drop at Montana Crans, that broke two bone, one of them in 8 places; two cheek bones while totaling a Harley Davidson in Nova Scotia (it's okay, it was a crappy AMF one!); the pre-airbag side impact crash in Bozeman broke a wrist; broke two bones in my foot missing a step and sliding on a dog toy; having 45,000 lbs. of flat steel dropped on the car I was driving pretty well destroyed every bone in my right shoulder; and two cracked ribs avoiding arrest during an interesting protest with Autonomie Operaio by going through a storefront and landing badly...

... but words, dear sweet, sweet, child psy, will never hurt me.

Unless those words are something on the order of "duck, there is a whacking great mallet flying at your head" and I fail to react in time, but I wouldn't blame the words, theirs would be merely an unheeded warning not a causal effect in the conjunction between head and aforementioned flying mallet.

Silly little boy, don't come to a battle of wits so woefully unarmed and ill-prepared. You will only end up embarrassing yourself in front of your betters.

Yet again.

i have to say i see it quite differently.

i think it was a very poor talk.  all she did was give a superficial historical review with a heavy slant towards the negative events over the last year including her own mishap with MyBitcoin.  she showed no understanding of the economics behind why Bitcoin was created or how it fits into the financial crisis of the last 4 years.  she even had the gall to say she understood Bitcoin better than most ppl in a previous video interview with that other supposed financial expert who's name escapes me.  David Birch.

its high time we get someone who is articulate and has a deep understanding of the corrupt financial world into which Bitcoin is trying to insert a viable solution.  

if i were to give a talk on Bitcoin i would spend 75% of the talk emphasizing the mess we're in with central banks printing money all over the world in an attempt to stop the debt deleveraging deflationary spiral.  i would throw up pictures of M2 and debt/GDP ratio and how they started their upward parabolic moves in the 1970's when we went off the gold standard.  i would then throw up a graph of the asymptotic Bitcoin issuance curve contrasting their shapes.  i would talk about how gold has always been real money backing fiat paper and how Bitcoin is digital gold.  i would put up a 100 yr graph of the declining value of the USD and overlay that on top of the Dow and debt levels.  i would throw up a non log graph of the last 100 yrs in the Dow and show how we have peaked and are in a frightening massive head and shoulders formation over the last 12 years with a projected line straight down the shoot over the next decade.  i would throw up a graph showing how Obama has doubled the national debt in just 3 yrs.  i would throw up a graph of declining housing prices and how this correlates with decreasing household wealth.  i would go over the 2007-08 crisis and how it began and why.  i would explain how Geithner, Bernanke and Hank Paulson broke the rule of law and bailed out crony banking institutions and AIG.  i would emphasize that not one banker who caused this whole mess has gone to prison.  i would explain that 0.01% of the US population owns a counterfeiting ring that only they can tap into and every USD they print devalues the other 99.99% of the populations's USD's.  i would throw up a graph showing why this very phenomenon has resulted in the tremendous wealth disparity of these ppl to the rest of us.  i would go over the European sovereign debt issue and explain that banks all over the world dumped their bad debts onto gov'ts and are pushing them into default as we speak.  

for the rest of the 25% talk i would only insert the basics of Bitcoin into key selected points staying away from the technical side and showing just why Bitcoin would solve a particular problem.

this is just off the top of my head.  sorry for the rant but listening to her made me puke.

Just saw your post now, apologies!

i got bitcoins for picking bad pictures. those look like facebook profile pics. i thibk fb is using that stuff to ban bad profile pics

hilarious thread

you want to walk around with SNITCH on your head be my guest. & Where is your hero now? a fucking lying scammer thats what. So you have no fucking right to justify SNITCHING what so ever. Remember what go's around comes around.

Bitcoin doesn't install Growl-- something else must have in the past.

PS: there is an open bug in the 0.6 release that it is not compatible with some versions of Growl; if that isn't resolved Growl notifications might be completely disabled.

every time I cilck on tasks it says nothing available 

Thats what I want jst a few cent to experiment. buying sounds tricky,  just want to play with it first

Creepy.

Just get lost

That is actually true. I got a bit carried away there and didn't think it through fully, but the OP's layout would still allow the remote IP to be discovered.

Golly, that sure ups the old impression of just how mature you are psy old sport. Could you not throw in a couple of neener neeners to really make yourself sound like a complete 6 year old little crybaby?

Okay so you seem to think that for some reason, just hacking a simple message board and getting to the root will allow people to circumvent TOR....?

WTF?

So let's go back to the very first part of this thread -- the title:
  "i thought transaction fees are optional?"

The correct response is:
  "You thought wrong, sorry."
