The images the brain is processing while lucid dreaming are coming from standing wave images inside the fluid of pineal gland as seen by its retina, is that correct?

These creators, are they still out there? Are they still unhappy with the situation; a deathstar is on its way here to rectify the situation ASAP?

There are no creators.  DNA molecules and the living organisms that contain them just came into being spontaneously.

How do you explain cheetahs then? They're half dog and half cat for god's sake.

An omnipotent immortal artificial intelligence is created to serve its creators and now they're wondering why it just decided to wander off and do whatever it feels like? Is that the story so far?

What we're looking at here is the breakdown of society. A company is openly committing theft against its customers and is allowed to remain in business.

"... the evil pyramid scheme that is Bitcoin, ..." -- OP

Imagine that it was Nigerian scammers that had invented e-mail and they used it to scam all the early adopters. Some people would claim that e-mail is a pyramid scheme in the aftermath. Could e-mail have survived such a rocky start?

It would only be vigilantism if someone stolen them to avenge the victims of black arrows incompetence and negligence, I've not seen any convincing evidence that theft is actually the case yet. Although that would be better than the alternative.

Even though time passes and does not comfort my feelings it do not feel stolen (yet) and still want to believe BA will offer proper compensation at some point in time.

I personally think BA does have a real crap supply chain, vendor management and customer service...
They have proven (more than once) not being able to maintain a proper/realistic production schedule.
They have proven not being able to get what they require from their vendors
They have proven not being able to offer what they stated to their customers

It looks like I (amateur miner/developer) would start tomorrow an bitcoin mining ASCI company a promise delivery within 6 month, with off course no experienced team nor established vendor relationship.

This would have been a (meant) scam, I assume we'd not hear about BA anymore with their founder enjoying a pile of dollars somewhere on a sunny island.... But we still hear and read about them (mainly not in a positive manner though).

To make it short, I think/assume:
1. BA realized about supply chain management early 2014 - too late
2. BA realized about vendor management mid 2014 - much too late
3. Consequently, BA faced reliability issue on their X3 unit putting even more pressure on their (nonexistent) supply chain management
4. Consequently again, BA faces customer anger for defect product and delayed delivery putting even more pressure on their (nonexistent) customer service

Since I still trust BA has good will, I think it is a wise decision to continue with new product development since only next gen units could now fairly compensate customers. Refunding/financial compensation would just kill the company in my opinion and vigilantism by stilling from them would only benefit to the theft (BA customer would probably never see a single satoshi of such a theft)

For the history, I have ordered two X1 units back in November '13 and received them functional (without LCD and WiFi) late July '14. Units are working perfectly since then.
Now required from BA a free "X1 14 nm" as compensation, which they said they'd investigate...


This BA pre-order has been scam from the beginning same as BFL and all the others. The guys who run these operations are career criminals.

The fact is that BA lied to get my money, never delivered any product and is not refunding me.

Josh zipkin claims he doesnt like the branding of jews. however, his behavior paints a different picture. its people like Josh that make the jewish people look bad. i have to be honest - i have never knowingly done business with a jewish person. i have nothing against them and do not think ill of israel or it's people. with that being said Josh Zipkin is the first real con artist I have ever had the misfortune of doing business with. i have never been duped and had so much money stolen from me as i have with this asshole. you cannot paint an entire ethnicity with a single brush stroke.

i want to learn more about this jim brown fellow. i want to know how involved he was with this con.

The fact Spondoolies has been delivering makes the Jews look like Bitcoin saints however, this business of shipping people bricks isn't looking so good.

re: Angry

I find that post a bit misleading; the situation looks like a scam from the beginning when they used our money to buy Bitfury chips for their data centre until currently where they're claiming to have been the victim of theft. It would be ironic that they would have their ill-gotten gains taken from them but the idea that Black Arrow still has control or just sold the coins is gaining traction IMO.

To believe that BA is just an honest company that ran into trouble you first have to believe that the convicted criminal (for fraud over the internet) who runs the show has turned over a new leaf so-to-speak with this company that appears to be based on the BFL business model.
