fantastic
guess who's reading A.S.
Round about 2002, one of my friends in high school (I was independent study, and did a few electives at her school) was reading it. Meanwhile I was neo-liberal, I guess? But mostly just anti-evil-Bushit, really. In the intervening years, I came to see that no matter who we vote for, tyrants always win. I still haven't read A.S., but I did see Part 1 on the opening weekend while cosplaying John Galt, and it was/is art imitating life. I'm on the DVD special features (in costume) along with a ton of other Shruggers saying "I am John Galt."

Can anyone log in at all? I can. Strange. No, I'm not getting successful login. I was able to reset the password but even that new password didn't yield a successful login. Browsers tried: Chrome v18, Firefox v15. Been researching the problem, it might be performance related. Might also be something else (something related to the session cookie, or server running out of session space). In any case we are upgrading the server ASAP, today or tomorrow. Edit: sometimes clearing your cookies help. Cleared them twice on Firefox 15, Safari 5.1.7 never accessed the site before I tried it.

I usually see a topic for the first time, click Watch and don't reply at all. At a later date I Quick Reply, and after I quick reply, the Unwatch link turns to Watch. If I hit refresh, it remains as Watch. I rarely use the advanced editor, pretty much only when starting threads or editing posts.
ETA: It just happened when I posted this.

Anybody else having this happen?

And democracy is itself founded on a logical fallacy: The idea that if a lot of people agree on something, it must be right.
I think it's more founded on the idea that if one lot of people disagree with another lot of people, sticking a piece of paper in a box is preferable to tearing chunks out of each other. If voting could actually change anything and <1 elections were not decided by fraud, it would be illegal.

The operation forced Federal Firearms Licensees (at threat of government force) to supply violent drug cartels with rifles, resulting in thousands of innocent deaths to date and untold more in the future. As a result, the FFLs were subjected to defamation, shutdown, criminal sanctions, and increased victim disarming-regulations while the government pretended that it wasn't 100% at fault for the entrapment, arming known felons, and violating numerous state and federal laws.

Thanks for the support and the replies, everyone. This is now a thing. I need a name for this thing. So this thread is now a competition. Suggest a name for the thing, and if I pick yours, you win the 3 BTC I have in my wallet (minus tx fee). It should have a vacant .com address. For the record, my own suggestion is The Hard Bit, for hardware bitcoin wallet. hardbit.com is taken, though ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) bitagotchi.com buhbomb.com bitallet.com

The phrase was originally used in the movie ‘Hackers’ to describe a lead character’s state-of-the-art laptop. More recently, it has been used by the cast of MythBusters.

Seriously.. Why does THE important thing for bitcoin seem to be how many merchants take the currency?
Converting between bitcoins and fiat incurs expenses. If I have to cash out bitcoins to fiat, I pay a fee for that. Or if the merchant receiving bitcoins cashes them out to fiat, then the merchant incurs the fee. Sure, it might be less than 1% but it still is an avoidable conversion if I can pay with bitcoins and then the merchant can use the bitcoins for paying for some of its purchases. So the more choices of places that bitcoins can be spent, the less the likelihood that the coins will need to be cashed out. Key word, I suppose, being "have" - in other words, immediately - or at end of day, ie Bit-Pay. If you get a liquidity provider rebate by doing limit sells that exceed all bids on the orderbook and are able to withdraw via ACH for free, or advertise on LocalBitcoins, then you're not forced to pay fees.

Meanwhile, unemployment has dropped to under 8%.
Allegedly.

Middle version is using complex font as an additional way to obfuscate the name, besides unusual text direction. Bottom version are just initials using complex font. Notice how letter A at it's bottom forms anonymous person head. Vector format. All elements (text, black box, grey box) are on separate layers, all kinds of modifications are possible.

after seeing the debate... have any obama supports switched their views?
True support of Obama up til the debate necessarily included supporting mass murder (Fast and Furious, the successful false flag op to justify "gun control"/victim disarmament by "breaking a few eggs" - in other words, countless innocents on both sides of the U.S./Mexico border), so if you support the actions of a mass murderer, I'm not sure why you'd suddenly stop supporting him after hearing his words.
