Of course not. God does the thinking around these parts.

My mama told me I should wash my hands, be nice to old people and don't answer to Internet trolls, but I guess I'll bite this time. As per any dictionary a forum is: "A meeting or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged." . I didn't realize there's also a requirement to do deep research on any random idea I have and want to share with the rest of the community. Allow me to apologize and rest assured the I will immediately start working on a paper that will analyze my idea from all conceivable point of view, including but not limited to environmental impact, religious aspects, dependency on weather conditions, influence on snow tigers (they're an endangered species!) and so on. You seem really nice and friendly, I will make sure to send you a first draft for review, I'm sure you'll help.

I was poking fun at luke-jr...I should have pared down the quoted posts. Sorry for the offense, but I look forward to your dessertation...wait, it's a dissertation. Nevermind.

Let's make the rule really simple: blocks are invalid if there are tx'es older than 8h not included. What do you think?
I'd "time" them in blocks. What if there are too many to include in a single block? Wink
I kind of doubt there will be a "too many tx in the same block window" problem any time soon, but sure, blocks works just as well.

Have you thought that all the way through? 

Of course not. God does the thinking around these parts.

As a spinoff of the "A vote for Ron Paul is a vote for love" thread, I'm asking this question...

Should a Jewish owner of an eatery in NYC be forced by governments to serve a hungry neo-nazi skinhead, if he has the money?

How say you FlipPro?
I doubt the Jewish owner will even be @ the restaurant  Cheesy.

His workers will be the one serving him. And if they are not, I doubt the owner will give a shit what the customers personal beliefs are.

The owner is after one thing, MONEY.

Now if the Neo-Nazi is being nasty, that's a different story. Then the owner can simply call the police, and have him arrested... He isn't forced to serve "anyone".



So now you're saying that jews only care about money? You, sir, are a racist.
No OWNERS only care about money. And if they don't, then they're running a Shitty business.

And all jews are OWNERS? That, sir, is even more offensive.

Interesting indeed.

I wouldn't have expected a scammer to continue defending himself at this point after such a long period of silence, which almost leads me to believe that there is something to what TW says.

"The government's secret service".  Which government?  If the US, aren't the secret service only responsible for protection?  Not for fraud/theft/virtual security investigations?

I am pretty certain it is a joke, what with the fresh prince lyrics and all...

I hope that the fact that the search box only searches within the current post/subforum isn't lost on anyone. So to search the entire forum make sure you're at "home" or otherwise not in any post/subforum.

I had no idea.  Thanks!

Now you can take your internet policing to a whole new level!
613  Other / Meta / Re: Is selling drugs that are illegal in the US to US customers against forum rules? on: January 10, 2012, 11:10:04 PM
Flaxceed is just scared because he knows he is losing business, and his customers are realizing how much of a liability it is to conduct illegal activities in public view.

I urge other forum members to be cautious about endorsing or giving testimonials about this "service". Several posters listed in the thread below have likely incriminated themselves in their legal jurisdiction.  If you are engaging in illegal activity, you should not discuss it in a public forum.

Stay safe guys.

I cultivate exorbitant amounts of cannabis. I also manufacture methamphetamine, crack-cocaine and heroin in my basement, along with a drug of my own invention that I the schoolkids I sell it to like to call 'Blam'. I also traffic in russian prostitutes, both male and female and commit medicare fraud on a daily basis. And I'm gay. Call the internet police.

www.butterflylabs.com/product-details/
Butterflylabs is a scam. I mean, really? Anyone dumb enough to give these guys money deserves what they get.
Look like you are ~1000 posts late...

PS : It is not a scam (yet)
It was a scam the day they posted those fake pictures that have nothing to do with bitcoin mining. Think I have a old espresso machine in the garage, I can put a fancy heatsink on it. Label it a 20 watt, 24g/hash mining super computer and you can buy it from me.
Just because it doesn't look like a video card doesn't mean it couldn't do the same thing, relative to bitcoin mining.

He's got a point...they sold people a product that didn't exist, and may never exist.

Does nicotine inhaler removes nicotine in your lungs?

No, it just supplies nicotine with no smoke or other irritants/carcinogens. It sort of circumvents the withdrawal symptoms from nicotine and lets you battle the psychological addiction by itself, which is the real hard one to kick. Once you don't feel the overwhelming compulsion to smoke, kicking the nicotine alone isn't too difficult since you can ween yourself off it.

Aye, one of the hardest habits to break due to the powerful psychological and physical addiction. Harder than even herion, some say. I'm a smoker and it's the last of my youthful vises I've yet to try and tackle. I rather enjoy my smokes but ultimatly realize, even if it does not kill me, it has a strong possibility of causing me discomfort or early termination later in life. It just seems something a rational person would not do to themselves.

If I do ever decide to take the plunge I will likely start with one of the electronic deals. I like the idea of it having the look and feel of a normal cig without the smell of all the smoke. Though, I will miss the smell of a fresh bag of tobacco. Thats for sure.

Well, cheers to everyone and all their new year's endeavours. My only true goal this year is to... coming soon(tm)..

 Derek

I think the best way is to not start in the first place.

If you want to stop smoking you need to be poor Smiley That way if you can't afford to feed your family I don't think you will be spending money on tobacco.

That's quite an unamerican view. The government will provide, even booze and cigarettes...

What experience do I have ordering them? I merely offered up some easily available information as to the US legality of two items that flaxceed is supplying.


I have been waiting to post a review for a bit because I wasn't sure how to proceed. I really wanted to give flaxceed a rave review, because he is a real, friendly and non-scammy merchant, but there are a few issues I have.

I ordered some Clenbuterol. While the transaction went smoothly and I did receive my goods (always a surprise with bitcoin), it was sent requiring signature confirmation, which is by no means the correct way to ship substances that fall in a legal grey area. I ended up having to pick up the package from the post office, against my better judgement. If this was silkroad or through escrow, I wouldn't have risked picking it up, as that error is on the sender.

As far as the actual package, it was very discrete and unremarkable and would raise no suspicions upon a casual inspection...but how was I to know that before I went in to the PO? I could have been walking in to pick up a bag spilling out pills on the counter.

Regarding the product, it seems to be what it says it is, as I am trembling like a leaf, but the box claims it is from a 'labaratory'(sic) in Switzerland. A quick look at their website and a google search of the lab's name brings up nothing to support the validity of the claim. Searching around some other sites, it appears it is from an underground lab in Thailand. There is no quality control or assay information available, but it is apparent that this drug from this manufacturer is very widely used, so I decided to trust it.

Overall, a success, but the signature confirmation thing has to go.

Regardless of whether it endangers the forum, you shouldn't publicly post that you are attaining drugs in this way if you aren't prepared for this information to be public.

Cool...I *maybe* attained a legal substance under an alias. I didn't recall posting it, but hey, quoted for posterity's sake. Call the internet police.

Randy,

You're right.  Outside of Bitcoin, I don't go on forums.  How much time do you spend on forums?

And you should see my thread on "The Word 'Troll.'"

As for Lou, he was harassing a newb so I stuck up for him.  Is that how you'd like all newbs to be treated?  What if the newb was a nice 60 year-old lady?  

Besides, after judging the way he communicates I have no doubt Lou is a very tough guy .  I'm sure he can handle it.

He wasn't harassing a newb, he was mocking a moronic post. If he was doing it in the newbie forum, then I could see doing some white-knight defense of it, but it was here in this utter clusterfuck of a thread, composed of mostly trolling. If you would like me to see your thread on 'The Word "Troll"', you should link it, but in all seriousness, I probably don't care. I'm just here to troll.

stop smoking - smokefree for more than a week already  Smiley

good for you, m8!  You taking any medication or doing some activity to help with the addiction and habit breaking?

I got a nicotine inhaler and was able to kick a pack-a-day habit pretty easily. Gum and lozenges killed my stomach, and I imagine patches would leave my hands unoccupied and wanting a cigarette. Having something cigarette-like to puff on every time I had a craving was great. It's a passive inhaler with 2mg delivered cartridges that load into a thing that's sort of like the plastic tips on swishers.

I would recommend it to anyone trying to quit. The only caveat is their price: I think 160 cartridges was like, $300+ dollars if you paid cash, plus a doctor's visit to prescribe it. Mine was free courtesy of Los Angeles County. Check your state, city and county (or whatever the equivalent is where you are) as a lot of them have free or really cheap smoking cessation stuff. A lot of states have a 'quitline' program (google it) which provides free patches and 'counseling'.

Does nicotine inhaler removes nicotine in your lungs?

No, it just supplies nicotine with no smoke or other irritants/carcinogens. It sort of circumvents the withdrawal symptoms from nicotine and lets you battle the psychological addiction by itself, which is the real hard one to kick.

assuming that you run a bitcoin client on the pc that you're using at the moment and you want to unlock it to send a tip.
i dont think you can assume it for most of the cases.
and someone may not want to wait 6 confirmations to get his tip from an unknown sender.
it should be integrated into the forum - this would improve quality of the content.
its much easier and efficient to just click a button, rather than do a bitcoin transaction.

The problem is then that the forum must serve as a bank, a responsibility I am sure they do not want.

I like the idea, but implementation is unrealistic.
620  Other / Meta / Re: Is selling drugs that are illegal in the US to US customers against forum rules? on: January 10, 2012, 01:55:15 AM
Sildafinil citrate (Viagra), which is on your list there as controlled, is not scheduled or controlled in the US. It is legal to possess without a valid medical prescription.

Clenbuterol is not controlled or scheduled by the US either, and with no approved medical use, you are free to import as much of it as you want and do what you will with it.

I am under the impression that it would still be illegal for me (as a US citizen) to sell sildafinil to my neighbor (without being a pharmacist), am I mistaken?

I think you are right about Clenbuterol.  The fact that he is advertising it as a weight-loss aid and describing it as "amphetaminey" might raise some flags however.  Seeing as how you have experience ordering these things, I'll trust your judgement.

What experience do I have ordering them? I merely offered up some easily available information as to the US legality of two items that flaxceed is supplying.

Possessing and attaining are two very different things, as any lawyer can tell you. In Minnesota, you can possess up to 42.5 grams of dried cannabis flowers and only receive a civil infraction, but to attain those 42.5 grams in any manner is felonious trafficking. In California, you can possess up to 8 ounces of dried cannabis flowers and concentrates, but to manufacture or attain the concentrates is a felony. There are two prime examples for you. I am sure you can google up some more with your incredible internet sleuthing skillzors.

Yes, you would be committing a crime by transferring a prescription medication to your neighbor, just like it says up at the top of every prescription bottle. The substance is irrelevant, the crime lies in the unauthorized transfer. The same would apply if you were to give your child some leftover antibiotics that were prescribed to you.

On another note, caffeine could also be described as 'amphetaminey', perhaps you should rail against it for a while.
