Ha ha!  Well I did read somewhere that technical analysis is simply astrology for men and that astrology is no better at predicting the future than random chance.  It gives me something rather than watching TV to do in my free time though.


I consider it more akin to reading tea-leaves.

This is disgusting. Dirty dirty dirty move... using the death of fellow WOer's close relative to shill your anti-vaxxer shit.  Sad

Oh the irony...

I did not sell any btc to increase spending, but had to make some moves in a couple of unnamed alts that had obscene gains in 2021.
House remodeling is expensive.
My bitcoin stash keeps accumulating (slowly) due to mining rewards.

For those of you who like viewing some expensive RE (I have to say that the buildings themselves are amazing from the engineering perspective), check out this, although this is probably out of reach for almost everyone here...but in 10 years...who knows:

Bitcoin ‘may not last that much longer,’ academic warns

I don't think the price wants to go down but someone has a lot of ammo. Hopefully they'll run out soon.

I am not a prepper (maybe I should be?) but you better believe I am hoarding a little urea to keep my truck running without having to hack it.  I might even buy a little deionized water to wet it down with and make it last a little longer.

How hard is it to hack it?

I remember reading at the time that "freeze" refers to ice cream in japan and that the victim probably thought he was being offered a Halloween treat. It was October 31 and there were Halloween decorations in place. Trick-or-treating is usually done after dark.

The Wikipedia said the 17th which is way early for trick or treating. It seems they made an unfortunate mistake that shouldn't have resulted in death.

Moreover, considering that in those 11 years that you have been here, you have not deigned to put an avatar, then such a trifle should not worry you much.

As Jefferson said ... “On matters of style, swim with the current, on matters of principle, stand like a rock.”  Wink

I do like the current software, although a dark mode would be nice. It's more of a joke related to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50617.0

Something could probably be done with user style sheets.

is this a Mickey D's witch or Taylor Swift?

Funny. When I was searching this up, I saw someone noticing the resemblance to TSwift. When I first saw it though, Swift was a non-entity and probably running around a school playground.

The video is on YouTube and at a regular speed, it's quite a bit better. Embedded YouTube links weren't a big thing in 2009 when this forum software was written, apparently.

If I'm not wrong Texas has a law that let's you kill anyone entering your property uninvited after dark.
If I recall correctly the couple that shot the Japanese student did shout "freeze" several times and he did not stop, and it was after dark.

I believe this effectively applies to your residence. You can't just gun down the mormons walking up your drive, even if one is Mitt Romney.

While not guilty in a criminal sense, still held liable for shooting an innocent.

Think twice before pulling the trigger or calling for a shot.


Dude went to the door for what was potentially a threat. Not smart.
755  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 15, 2021, 08:25:38 PM
The defendant (shooter) stated that japanese guy/boy was 'moving erratically' and did not "freeze".

Interesting edit.

Not that I would claim it as a good shoot, just that the media tends to present it as a dude just randomly taking down trick-or-treaters.

Here is my 2c about that "purple" posts and shooting those who went past them.
In short, it is idiotic, imho.

Your idiot opinion has been noted.

... exquisite response to the triggerred liberal

... but pretty sure your purple-marked posts need to be some colour other than purple for the bottom 3-5 feet

... I can bring over a tin of black paint and a brush and we'll get to work painting your black bottoms? .... Or is it bottoms black?

Surely the rest of the post would be blue, green, yellow, orange, red for maximum F.U. factor?
758  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 15, 2021, 07:54:03 PM
Why? Because it is completely arbitrary and does not accomplish what is intended.
Assume several scenarios:
1. A visitor from out of state was traveling, went to piss past a purple post. He/she has no idea, thinks that it is some kind of a decoration-bam, wham. Not exactly the same, but in Florida a nice Japanese student visitor was killed through the door when he was simply participating in Halloween celebration.
2. A local drunkard drove his truck past the "signs", went out to do #1 as well...bam..wham!

In both cases, those who do the shootin' would be dragged through the courts, charged with manslaughter, and even IF they prevail, it is DEFINITELY not worth it if lives were not REALLY in danger.
Protect the property? Well, bears and rabbits shit on your property daily with no recourse..well maybe they got shot too from time to time, which is fine.

Additionally, assume scenario #2 happened. If the guy/gal who was shot in this scenario was also local, you would NEVER be safe.
His or her relatives...they got 'them telescope rifles as well, don't ya think?

Again, shooting mere trespassers is not legal in any case. Urban legends, old wives tales and the fact that you would probably get away with it if you weren't completely stupid notwithstanding. It's merely supposed to be a no trespassing sign. Though I do agree that it's really not very good from the point of view of someone who has never heard of this totally non-obvious custom.

By the way, I do recall reading that there were other parts to the Japanese student (though I think that was Texas) that were not being reported (quelle surprise) which, while not making the event particularly better, do shine a different light on things.
759  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 15, 2021, 07:50:28 PM
"At least" signifies "bare minimum".

Painting posts entirely purple is absolutely legal and acceptable.

That's "from the ground" though, amigo. Though I think it would be hard to mistake the intention.
760  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 15, 2021, 03:38:56 PM
I read that as a minimum requirement that you can exceed if you so desire. But I'm not a native speaker.

You can exceed it but that is height above the ground. So the bottom of the mark must be three feet or more above the ground. If you painted it extra, then it would be less than three feet above the ground.
