<Sticky: One word per post!>

Once upon a time, there was a Jesus. She walked out unadorned. Then, as bagpipes blared and didgeridoos fell, the star exploded.

Enter the vassals, creating comically obscene gestures with cryptocurrencies. Jesus cried!

Andy B. Casagrande immortalized the scene with photography. Space robots had been shoving corn vicariously into other crevices, hoping that Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis... perhaps silicosis, or QueerOsis, or trees could accomplish impossible synchronizations.

Fifteen wishes weren't exceptionally productive. She touched herself vigorously with tremendous pillows; creaming out butter flavored LiteCoins. Ironically, Bitcoins never lowered the dust limit so that Luke-Jr would be anally probed by martians invading us to steal our fish for little did we know, Fish is the solution to all our global problems! Seamen relentlessly fapped out the next generation of ASICS which actually works without any electricity at all. Powered by shipwrecks, signals meant that mermaids knew cryptographic encryption algorithms' weaknesses in theory but, in reality, Rpietila gave all.

Thursday passed without BFL taking the biggest shit, which when combined with their largest fanboy, Atlas, every miner stabbed Satoshi irregardless. Meanwhile, trolls eating crow poop, crow testicles, and God's vagina laughed.

Artichokes roasted sweetly over flaming gays, joyfully prepared numerously spiced blockchains sacrificing virgins disregarding matter. Therefore Jesus announced peasantry raping holidays. Upon reflection, Jesus quixotically decided retroactively somewhere in Reptilia's bosom to fuck an ant hill and myrkul touched himself feverishly ravishing all pillows! Lophie touched electrically his "contacts", pondering why her earlobes looked so tasty dipped in mustard sauce from Meze's toilet. Meanwhile, under scrutiny from DHS, MTGox got DDOS'ed by CIA bots, Chinese pygmies licked thousands, drooling custard from cracks forgone.

Alas, we combusted gloriously into eternity with malevolent douchenozzles. Faunlets screamed condescendingly into their rapists' buttholes. Nymphet's carefully propositioned orgies began fondling Eminem's mobile phone until climax commenced. Jailbaits serendipitously surrounded Clinton's ASICS with their

And just to clarify, you have no problem telling people that they should let people paint on their walls, that they're planting too many trees, and that they should advertize fun things instead of the country club, but automating the DMV is going a step too far?

Man, your priorities are fucked.
803  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Let the Machines do the Work (The end of Slavery) on: May 17, 2013, 05:35:14 AM

Who said anything about force?

YOU did. You said that in my original posts I should have said that the government would buy robots and mining machines. That would be forcing.

Which is not the plan, so it was not included. But as said before, you could EASILY have deduced that the surplus income could have gone to that. But it may go other places, which is again, why I didn't say that the funds would be used to buy robots.
Wait, what? I said that you should have put your whole plan into the first post, and left out all the other junk. If this is not part of the plan, then why did you tell me it was?

I would like to hear an explanation for how interest can work in conjunction with an inflexible money supply.

Will mine do?

Put simply, Moneylenders do not just hoard all the money that they get back. Yes, it's entirely possible for someone to borrow BTC20MM and end up owing BTC36MM. This does not mean that they will be unable to pay it, necessarily, just that there will have to be at least BTC15MM that goes through his hands (and back to the moneylender) twice. While he's paying his tremendous debt, the economy is chugging right along, and he's providing value to that economy in order to get the BTC that he owes.

The idea was complete, you just failed to recognize what it was meant to be. (by my guesses on purpose in an attempt to troll)
But it wasn't:

All of this earns money for small business and the government, which in turn allows for the purchase of robots or bitcoin miners. Which is the beginning of the "let the machines do the work" taking over. Ex: Automated DMV (what are they really even doing besides telling you if you have the right stuff, which a machine could easily figure out, and ONE or two people could be staffed to watch the machines and help people out. Kinda like an arcade.)

Why do you expect EVERY point to be the first post.
For completeness. Wink

I already explained that everything you asked me to go into further detail about DID NOT belong in the original posts.
I am not trying to force a society to buy robots.
Who said anything about force?

This is you explaining how you envision your system working in the real world, yes?

Well, envision it. Complete it. Don't just leave us hanging with bitcoin miners in the public library.

Stopping at the first step might well be wise for a campaign platform, but you're not campaigning, here. You're explaining your vision. Explain it! Let us see it in all it's glory. Don't hide it behind the golf course and the Myrtle trees.

I would appreciate anyone here weighing in. (Bitcoin relevance: The OP mentioned Satoshi at one point)

I think you may be confusing us with the voters in McKinney. (hint: We're not)

Nope, I just KNOW that you are the public. And I'm not going to present my plans to the public as if I want to over run a town with robots.
Why not? You presented a plan to overrun the entire world with robots in the OP. Why not let us in on your dreams for one tiny town?

No, I presented a philosophy that could end slavery. That is all.
By overrunning the world with robots, and making them our slaves.

The Collin county discussion came later, and is only an example of how the philosophy could begin to be applied in a REAL place.
An incomplete example, and one burdened with a lot of extraneous sidetracking.

I did explain the system. I just didn't say "and some money goes to machines" in places that it was obvious. I explained the machines in places where it wasn't blatantly clear that machines could be afforded, because this is not "how we FINISH the let the machines do the work program", this is BEFORE we ever start inventing machines. This is how the machines START doing the work.

Where it would be obvious to you is not necessarily where it would be obvious to someone who isn't in your head. You have to explain those things. And you can't force people to slog through a bunch of complaining before getting to where you actually start talking about how things could be implemented. At least, not if you actually want them to read what you're writing.

No I don't have to explain those things, the things I have explained will take one or more terms to complete. I have no intention of forcing the future of these plans on a community, I will slowly present options for the future, as I am doing now. I'm not going to ask any person or group to change EVERYTHING they do. Just change a little, so that they things they already do are more communal, profitable and progressive.

People love to talk about market forces solving all problems, but protecting the environment is something that market forces do a very poor job at protecting.  See global warming on a global scale, or overfishing, it's the economic principle of externalities - also referred to as "the tragedy of the commons".
You know how to fix the tragedy of the commons, right?

Nope, try to keep up. That was an answer to your question about how festivals are tied to letting the machines do the work. The DMV was just an example of a byproduct. In no way was it the "topic" we were on. lol.
Yes, and then I asked why you didn't include that information in the original post, instead of whining about golf courses..
And I said you cant just expect everything to be in the first post
I can indeed. If you're trying to show how a system will work, you should probably explain the system, yeah?

And it's apparently so bad that you don't remember that we're actually talking about how crappy your "example" was. I could have done without the campaign speech.

Because you started the post with this:

I kinda expected there to be some things about letting the machines do the work.

There was tons of stuff about that. Are you so drunk that you forgot we are specifically talking about festivals now?
Festivals?
I thought you were talking about automated DMVs?

That is not how you responded. You responded with troll bullshit.
And now, It seems I need to remind you of this:
Oh, please do. And insult me more. That makes your argument sound much more convincing.
Hmm... Nope, not "troll bullshit," clearly a request for you to explain.

Would be nice to BTC/LTC donate to the victims, rather seeing the conniving donation motherfuckers taking in profits from the donations "as a percentage". 7%?
It's frequently worse. 15-35% in admin/advertising for the really bad ones (the big cancer and Alzheimer ones are 20-30%, IIRC). 7% is relatively cheap.
Government programs are typically 60-70%.

Mutum Sigillum is not transmitting money, it is collecting payments only.
Nope, when it sends the money to Tibane LTD's Wells Fargo account, they are transmitting money. It doesn't matter if it's all Mark. The paper is all that matters.
