People confuse e-cigs they see in gas stations with real juice vaporizers.

Here's an example of a good E-cig device:


And then there are the ingredients. The question is all about what liquid you pour inside

"Scientific" and "believe" just dont fit together. You can either believe, or proof. Not both.

World of Warcraft had an aspect above classical games which are closed worlds. However I always dodged that one.

Good old Pacman was my first one ever, on a childrens birthday party. Things you never forget. So for "all time" I would go with that.

806  Local / Off-Topic (Deutsch) / Re: sichere Email gesucht on: May 10, 2015, 01:03:28 PM
hat jemand einen Tip für eine sichere Emailadresse, ideal mit etwas Webseite, IMAP, SSL ?
Definiere bitte zunächst einmal "sichere Emailadresse".

Provider mit mehr als 10000 Kunden müssen in der BRD eine SINA-Box bereitstellen, mit dem sich Behörden unbemerkt alle Emails eines Kunden herunterladen können.
(siehe https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telekommunikations-%C3%9Cberwachungsverordnung)
Als Kriterien die Du meinst könnte ich mir vorstellen wieviel geloggt wird, wie lange die Logs aufbewahrt werden, wie lange Backups aufbewahrt werden.
Letzten Endes hilft doch nur Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung.
Nach der anfänglichen Augenwischerei integriert De-Mail angeblich jetzt auch Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung mit PGP, und die Behörden "setzen auf Quellen-TKÜ" (heißt "Bundestrojaner", Keylogger etc.)
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/De-Mail-integriert-Ende-zu-Ende-Verschluesselung-mit-PGP-2570632.html

Auf
https://stiftungdatenschutz.org/links-und-werkzeuge/ (von der BRD-Regierung) werden
posteo.de, mailbox.org und startmail.com empfohlen.

Habe mir Posteo mailbox.org gerade mal angeschaut.
"Konsequente Verschlüsselung mit SSL/TLS, DANE, DNSsec und PGP"
hört sich gut an.

Weitere Email-Empfehlungen sind unter https://prism-break.org zu finden.

Ich habe meinen GnuPG-Key für verschlüsselte Email im Jahre 2006 von der DFN-PCA signieren lassen. Aber was nützt das, wenn man in der Praxis niemanden hat, der ebenfalls PGP nutzt? Versuche mit Freunden verliefen im Sande. Die Unpraktikabilität von PGP ist bekannt. Mit diesem neuen DANE über DNS tut sich da was. Dass sich überhaupt mal was tut, ist sicherlich das große Verdienst von Edward Snowden.

Aber solange mein Email-Kommunikationspartner nicht auch einen PGP-Key bei sich zu hause hat, also keine Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung besteht, sehe ich eigentlich keinen großen Unterschied zwischen GMX und mailbox.org. Aber mailbox.org scheint da zumindest schonmal auf dem richtigen Weg zu sein.

"Definiere bitte zunächst einmal sichere Emailadresse" heist natürlich STASI-frei. Habe mit der STASI nur negative Erfahrungen gemacht.

Natürlich ist das mit der Merkel nicht zu bewerkstelligen. Und der Gauck ist ja auch eher so ein Aktentyp.

Weder Merkel noch Gauck hätten nach 1989 jemals in die Regierung und an die Macht (plus Missbrauch) gehört. Da haben wir als Volk versagt.

Yeah they did... Went from being what I felt was the best interface to being crap. At least in terms of the graph. It's like they hired someone who doesn't actually trade to design and implement it. I'm able to login.
Both Craptsy and Shitrex are Shitcoin/Scammer trade websides so naturally try to avoid honest graphs.

Don't trade over there.
809  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: List of POW altcoins with no premine, instamine and ninjamine on: May 10, 2015, 12:15:54 PM
I want to compile a list like this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1045967.0

But this time it's for POW coins with no premine, instamine and ninjamine. 

So on top of my head it's Litecoin, Dogecoin, Monero, Vertcoin(?)... What else?
I would remove Monero from that list since they tricked people with mining software efficiency.

811  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Please discuss. Is the future of crypto in POW? on: May 10, 2015, 11:02:45 AM
Read this post by ArcticMine

Here is the Ripple agreement. http://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/opa/press-releases/attachments/2015/05/05/settlement_agreement.pdf Well worth reading especially Appendix A. My take is that a fairly launched POW coin (no pre-mine, insta-mine or ninja-mine) is likely safe. So would a proof of burn such a Counterparty. The rest could easily be currently under investigation. If they are working their way down the market capitalization list, it will be very interesting to see how they react to DASH. I would also suspect Ethereum is in the cross hairs not only of FinCEN but also of the SEC.

If Fincen starts going after IPO/ICO/presaled coins, do you think the future of crypto is in Proof of Work?

FUD. Fincen will continue to eagerly do nothing next several years.

OK, not that I understand how they are going to do that exactly, but, FinCEN only has jurisdiction in the U.S. right?
So, they can only do that with coins/developers in the U.S. right?

Exactly.

Solo mining is dying and unless you are a necromancer you are not advised to play it. BTC mining is very alive and in evolution, though. Methods are fading away but new methods are being born. It is the nature of BTC we must adapt to. Although I read alot of people here have doubts about cloud mining, my acquaintance has made a nice amount of money from it already. No, it wasn't problemless but he hasn't given up, become more experienced and now he has significant success in it. I too am willing to try it very soon.
I wish I picked up on mining BTC when I had the chance several years ago. I was going to buy a bunch but shrugged it off lol, my mistake. Now its not worth attempting to mine would not make any money solo mining it seems.
What was the reason behind your deed that you shrugged it off?
That's because most of it is a scam, and some is being hacked so can't pay the users. But, I agree with you that we must adapt for it.
There is no binary option that you have to do Cloudmining only, or install own miners local exclusively. From my history it is doable to add Cloud to owned equiment for coping with exploding Difficulty.
However, then you have numbers to compare. Expect your local install will jield better results than the rented one.

So I can highly recommend it especially cloud mining script at the moment
here
https://scrypt.cc?ref=bafLp
In the later days of my personal mining I had added cloud mining to cope with Difficulty, instead of expanding own hardware further. Just outcome was never really compareable with self owned hashrate.

If Janet Yellen knows anything, everything is possible. Below or above doesn't matter if both ar spiraling down.

Recently, Russia and China are getting closer together. Maybe we should watch Rubel and Renminbi.

There is still people who don't know what Bitcoin is that could benefit from its use.
The benefit has been privacy and private production of new coins. Today, after Edward Snowden, we know more.

And people do not anymore mine Bitcoins at home.
818  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is day trading on Coinbase profitable? on: May 09, 2015, 04:18:10 PM
Trading doesnt sound very hard.  just increase your balance 1% a day and you're rich!

The catch is that its very hard to win consistently.  The days where you lose will
make it like taking 1 step forward 1 step back...add in the 1% fees and you
start to see its not so easy.
The fees are exactly that high for a reason. There goes the gains.
819  Economy / Speculation / Re: Could Greece bankruptcy fuel the next Bitcoin rally? on: May 09, 2015, 04:16:52 PM
It happened all before with Cyprus in 2013:

Shares of the cyber-currency bitcoin have surged in the past week as investors seek safe havens following the unprecedented bailout of Cyprus' banks.

http://money.cnn.com/2013/03/28/investing/bitcoin-cyprus/

And today:

Schaeuble Warns Defaults Can Surprise Before Greece Test

“Experience elsewhere in the world has shown that a country can suddenly become unable to pay its bills,” Schaeuble said in an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung published Saturday.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-05-09/greece-huddles-with-creditors-ahead-of-ecb-test-as-support-slips

It's "Schäuble", not "Scha-eble". Since you are most probably someone from far away from the area of interest: Just believe me, Cyprus ain't Greece nor has given Bitcoin anything. More like nothing. What's left from the Cyprus Effect?
