If a burglar came into my home armed and with intent to harm me or family, I will shoot first and ask questions later.
He or she should not have entered my private home and by doing so it was with malice in mind.
Would I want them to die? Of course not. But at the heat of the moment these things will not be registering in my mind.
My will to survive by protecting myself and family will be first and foremost. If they do get grievously injured and or die, they should have though twice before entering my home.

Your title reminds me of a book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip Dick. That same book was made into a movie called Blade Runner. Both excellent by the way |

Besides sex?  Working out on weights at the gym. Practicing my martial arts and kicking a bag. They all give me the high I need to relieve stress from the day to day grind and stress from work. |

Love thy neighbor is thyself....live simply and within your means.
Do no abuse drugs and alcohol amongst other things
I try and follow the words of a famous poem called the Desiderata which I think is priceless by
Max Ehrmann
Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

Even though North korea is talking of peace and all I would not trust their leader and his actions. He is going thru the motions since his nuclear testing has stalled and his country is dying of hunger and the economy is in ruins. If North Korea had the money and the technology they would not be talking of peace but war. You can take the tiger ou of the jungle but never the jungle out of the tiger. Once a dictator always a dictator. Now watch them award Kin Jung-Un the noble peace prize!  |

What if it's used? And I thought all trezors were metal?
As I recall the aluminum Trezors were pre-sold at 3 btc and no more than about 200(?) aluminum cases were CNC machined. Plastic original Trezors sold for 1 btc. Here is a picture of aluminum Trezors laid out on a table:  There may have been some aluminum Trezors or cases unsold and kept as Trezor sold twenty metallics in 2016 (sold out in one day) in combination with a Cryptosteel. Hope you find one! Very nice BTCNews...good info to know...now I need to find one! |

Hmm..the advantages of BTCitcoin for me are
Ease of use to sending money in the form of Bitcoin to other people
Private...I do not have to go thru any banking or paypal system and diveulge information on who is sending and is receiving. So privacy is key.
Its fast, no longer do I have to wait for the bank to place a wire transfer and wait in line to fill out forms..again privacy issue.
Low transaction fees...I do not have to pay PAYPAL or a bank an exorbitant amount to send the money.
Can do it easily thru a mobile wallet in an instant...all I need is a Bitcoin address and the coin can be sent anywhere around the world/
And last but least,...there is no middle man to get involved to make them richer of off my back

HODL HODL HODL
I buy and hodl because i know bitcoin has only started its climb to reach 100k and up.
People who are selling are either panicking newbies or day traders squeezing out newbies...locking in profits or shorting bitcoin.
You have to look at bitcoin charts for long term not short-term hodling.

Why do people dump their bitcoin? Like in any other market either they panic or sell off to lock in their profits..especially traders who are not interested in buying and hodling onto bitcoin.
There is also the fear of losing money especially when buying at a higher price and the price of bitcoin plummets.
I used to fall in that category. Now i just buy and hodl regardless of what the price of bitcoin is. I am in for the long term of bitcoin and am not affected by the constant price swings the market sees on a daily basis

Where has Jesus been the past 2000 years?
Allowing all the atrocities mankind has committed thru the centuries..to name a few...holocaust...Zimbabwe genocide...spanosh inquisition ..Turkish genocide against the armenians.
How can this evil be permitted to happen and Jesus not come back and put a stop to it.
Why is he coming back now? Everybody always wants a messiah to come back and save them. I dont think this will be happening at all. Sad but that is reality.

First of Roger Ver can go to hell.
Bitcoin was here first...his shitty alt coin bth can go with him too.
Bitcoin was here first and will be the only Bitcoin no matter the amount of propaganda he comes up with.
That being said..no the lawsuit should in no way affect the price of bitcoin at all...nothing has changed in bitcoin except Ver slandering it.

No I would not.
Just because in the old testament God commanded Abraham to kill his son and he was willing to do so does not mean it was right.
First of I do not think that this story actually happened.
And If a God did command me I would flat out refuse.
I do not think God would ask for anyone to do such a vile act to begin with.
My God is an all loving God who would never condone such atrocities!

First of...a person would want to be immortal.
The question is, is that a wise desicion? Seeing all your friends and relatives dies off while you live on forever?
Thats is if you want to and they do not. I can only imagine what living forever does to the brain too.
I think there will be a time the human mind will be able to be transferred into a computer like brain that will allow a person to
continue existance forever.
On my end, I think a person should allow nature to take its course and when dead to move on into the spirit world as God intended.
Then again to each his own.

Is an auction of BitBills planned soon?
There are no auctions planned from my collection. I cannot speak for others. Its been well over a year since I have seen a Bitbills auction in this forum or anywhere else for that matter. |
