You just earned your first
+1 WOsMerit

That is the stuff of legends. Everyone can sport a few boring merits, but WOsMerits are for the 1337est of 1337!

I am sorry, I didn't get it. 🙂

You will, in due time.

For the time being, if you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

I've always wanted to know but never asked - where does this meme come from?

Quote
On December 5th, 2011, episode 14 "Malibu Beach Party From Hell" of season two of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reality TV series premiered in the United States. In the episode, cast member Taylor Armstrong cries during an argument, with cast member Kyle Richards attempting to calm her down.

On June 19th, 2018, Tumblr user deadbefordeath posted a photograph of a white cat with a confused expression sitting in a chair in front of a plate with vegetables in it, titling the post "he no like vegetals." The post gained over 50,300 likes and reblogs in one year.

On May 2nd, Twitter user @lc28__ made the first known meme based on the format, gaining over 20 retweets and 180 likes. On June 2nd, 2019, Redditor PerpetualWinter made the first known object-labeling meme based on the format, gaining over 310 upvotes in one month.

I've stopped arguing with "Schwurbler", I think that is what vaccination opponents are called in your country, but this Nazi comparison still gets my goat. Unpackbar.

Fine. I stopped arguing about topics with people that stopped arguing about topics. I still value your opinion and i also understand your point.

EDIT: You could have looked that up for yourself: Schwurbler  explanation (german). I also don't like it when people reduce anybody with a different opinion to a single word.
The current meaning of "Schwurbler" is a trending term for "Querdenker". I don't consider myself anywhere near those.
But it's always easy to fall for prejudice, which is exclusive to humans.

It was not my intention to reduce you to a single word, sorry for that. Your Schwurbler definition is wrong. Not all Schwurbler are Querdenker, but all Querdenker are Schwurbler Smiley Please feel free to continue researching the word

+1 WOsMerit each.

Yeah, the situation used to be: smoke a week ago, get pulled over while driving, take a test, fail because you have teeny tiny traces of thc in your bloodstream

More likely in your piss. Cannabis metabolites in blood don't last that long.

Much activity ahead of options expiry date tomorrow.

Bears happy at $58k,

I think the "important" options are monthly though - expiring on the last Friday of the month.

Can't disagree with any of the above. Regarding Bitcoin units, I've also thought about the vast gap between BTC and sats (that's an 8-orders-of-magnitude gap -- it's massive). It's not so convenient to use 0.021 BTC, but neither is 2,100,000 sats. Perhaps we could say that we are currently in a no-man's-land kind of level in between the units... Some have tried to use mBTC, μBTC, and so on (proudhon would probably like that -- math, science and all). In those units, 0.021 BTC = 21 mBTC, which is quite nice. For some reason, though, those units never took off...
I've always liked mBTC as a unit: when I joined Bitcoin, it was worth about €0.20. Now it's worth just over €50, but it's still a convenient unit (for "daily" expenses).
I don't like for instance 0.00003 BTC, and I don't like 300000 sat for the simple reason it's annoying to count the zeros. With mBTC, anything from a coffee (0.05mBTC) to a jacket (2mBTC) has a convenient small number.
My assumption has always been Americans don't like milli because they're not used to SI, but "here" it's quite common to use "m" for anything from volume to distance. It's the default now in Electrum, but for LN sats seem to be used more often.

I concur. I also like mBTC over all other units, including sats. I pushed my agenda here, looking for a marketing-friendly name (a "Finney" could be a bit too much of an inside reference, but I did like it), but even seasoned OGs like the WOers more or less dismissed the idea as worthless.

I was hoping a nice name* could help retail step in. It just didn't happen. I'm still thinking if retail was massively in, even at the mBTC level, fuckery with illiquid exchange books could be a lot harder to pull off.


* As in "I just bought 2 whole finneys!" vs. "I bought a paltry 0.002 btc" vs. "I bought 200.000 shitty sats"

I am Just Wondering "How The Heck This NoCoiner Got 20 Merit From a Single Post?"

I am here for the last five years and trying to get at least 100 Merit. But I am failed. Grin Grin

Actually, your account is four years old.
And the merit system is younger than that.



Psst... Eddie... I know it's been a blur of "WTF!?!" lately, but it IS November of 2021 now.
Jest Sayin...

Which makes it... hm... 4 years and 1 month, give or take a few days.
Just sayin'.

Rugged again haha. What a shit coin. Are you suckers really going to hold through another crypto winter? The writing is on the wall, sell before it gets worse.


Aren't you the most insightful of nocoiners that I never did meet?

He's not a nocoiner. He's got a few sats in the address in his profile, and he's hodling them.

As a creditor I expect nothing until what will likely be June/July 2022 and that's me being optimistic.

Sounds like nice timing. We could use that event to buy juicy BearDips...

Proudhon usually shows up just before prices soar again. Hoping to see him soon.

That's the theatrical effect indeed  Cool

China's final, final, final ever, Bitcoin ban honestly.

It's the end of Bitcoin again.

Works every time, Baa Baa better panic sell now!

Cue enter Billy and Proudhon full of glee.

1. CHECK

Like clockwork.

Proudhon is too funny to arrive reliably on cue. He might make the audience wonder for a bit... building expectation for some theatrical math&science effect.

I got about half way through your post, dragonvslinux, while attempting to decide whether I was going to quibble, and I had realized that there was something that was just off...

                  (3702 words total, 22.557 bytes w/spaces)


... By the way, can we stop talking about that bullshit coin in this thread?  There are other threads on this forum (and even other forums) for that.

JJG back to old JJG volume for a change.


Quality quibbling.
Oldschool elbow grease. A peep.
This is not AI.

The only thing that leaves me confused is that BTC is legal tender in El Salvador, and the blueprint of the law defines selling as "changing into a legal tender".
So maybe BTC is an exception to the rule and "taxically" untouchable?

... or maybe the lawmaker could argue when you buy bitcoin or swap some shitcoin for bitcoin, you're also "cashing out" the (crypto)currency into a legal tender - so you owe CGT.

You never know what byzantine concepts the lawmakers are going to come up with.

To all that disagree look into  sunken  pirate ships and the treasure involved when found some very interesting laws are involved as to who gets to keep what is found.

There are no laws that can pull the ships from the deep to the surface, though.
I thought that's what we were talking about.

Otherwise not sure why I keep seeing occasional panic in the market.

Some covert institutional whale selling some bitcoin to pay for Evergrande fiat fuckups?

The 64k question (lol look what I did there?) is how far will the fomo send it?  There are two things that are "different this time".

1. I think there will be more fomo than we have ever seen by a LOT.  
2. The distance between 65 and 650 is quite different, and yet exactly the same as between 65,000 and 650,000.  That's where the really chewy part comes in I think...
I have no idea.

The difference between 65/650 and 65k/650k is not in the ratio itself.
It is in the ratio between the numbers involved and the total amount of fiat in the world.

Q. Got it, daddy! So, is the whole amount of fiat in the world 1000x as much as it was when the corn was at 65?
A. Not yet, son, but they're working hard at it.

(Fuckin' legend!)

EDIT: I think @Biodom was meaning much the same thing in his latest post.
