I'll be honest, if I got a million Bitcoins that's exactly how I'd act Cheesy except actually, maybe crazier.

Yesterday we noted how the parabolic rise in Bitcoins lately looks a lot like the gold bull market on a chart.

This is a bit of a random question, but you wouldn't happen to have bought these components from the robot shop would you? I swear I recognise some of that stuff from there especially the LED display. It looks great, will remain to be seen whether you can get it too look presentable and work well with normal people though.

For the last bloody time, NO SUCH THING CURRENTLY IN EXISTENCE AS FREE ENERGY!

Just because it doesn't cost any money doesn't mean it won't cost resources, what's good about these ideas is that they are decentralised and don't rely on a managed infrastructure to operate.

Okay, let's be honest, how many of us browse the forum drunk at least once a month?

I almost bought €5000 worth of bitcoins in early 2011 when I was drunk. Fuck... not drunk enough Sad


OH. damn...

That would have been a hilarious story to talk about if you ever met a professional trader Cheesy they'd be like O_O

Not much you can do except wait I suspect if it hasn't been that long they may get back to you, if not, you'll know to be much more careful next time.

I think if it is ever changed generating might be the most appropriate term? Doesn't bother me too much, what bothers me is when people try to invent their own numbers and math like with stupid crap like 'satoshis'.

Maybe you have misunderstood the general point I've been trying to make in this thread. A while after starting the thread I came to a conclusion: making arbitrary distinctions in the legality of weapons and then rationalising those categories is pointless.

Well the point I've been trying to make is the whole idea of blaming everything on an inanimate object when it's the squishy organic meatbag pulling the trigger that's the problem Tongue
8052  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Adam Curry & John Dvorak Bring the Hate for Bitcoin on: March 10, 2013, 04:32:04 PM
It amazes me how often people try to cover up their own incompetence and stupidity by blaming it on an inanimate object, or in this case, one that's just made up of algorithm's and numbers which isn't even in the physical world.

BLEHHHH! >_<

Edit: I'll be honest, I didn't have the patience to listen all the way through, it's the exact same accusations you see troll spammed on these boards.

I hope they succeed in this ban.  That way people will get pissed off and finally do something Grin

Stupid people shouldn't be able to own cars either, but they do. Forgive my cynicism, but I have difficulty believing a government could actually educate and train almost any applicant sufficiently to prevent accidental firearm murders.  


The problem here is if you don't think that the government aren't capable of educating or training people in firearms then what makes you think they'll be at all competent in enforcing a ban? From what I've seen American soldiers and police officers are worse than the gun owners that they're going to be banning. I shouldn't have to remind people about the infamous friendly fire incident which got British soldiers killed in Iraq which is why I am seriously staggered that anyone would suggest banning guns is going to achieve anything worthwhile.

Just to show I'm not hugely biased and just being anti-american the Tottenham riots which happened recently were supposedly started off by British police officers who were doing an arrest and ended up shooting the guy they were going to get, there was a big fuss about whether or not he resisted and stuff or did anything to deserve it. Which pretty much shows you that the idea that anyone has a right over other people to defend themselves or uphold the law with or without guns is just plain bullshit.

As far as I'm concerned the idea that police or government forces are some how 'morally' superior in enforcing this etc. is just silly loyalist propaganda.

Yeah, like that South African Olympian that killed his girlfriend because he thought she was an intruder.  

The answer to this is simple, stupid people shouldn't be able to own guns, which is why I advocate education and training, not gun control, I often look at these incidents and even without any knowledge of guns am amazed at the complete stupidity of the people who caused this. Not only that, it's seemed to most that the Olympian incident it was murder, how do you shoot someone that many times and 'think' they were an intruder?

Usually defendants in those kind of cases either plead insanity or claim it was an accident to try and reduce their jail time once they realise they've been caught, it isn't normally to do with them being innocent at all.

If they can send spam, then it is a problem of the network. The network should not allow them to do that or it should make it unfeasible/uneconomic. If it doesn't do that, it needs to be fixed.

This actually reminds me a lot of the logic behind a large games company never fixing something, when they discover a blatantly abused glitch or bug, their response the majority of the time is to run around banning people and locking threads pointing it out. Instead of just fix it which in the long run would be far easier and make them more money because then people could keep playing the game.

Where the fuck do people get off this logic that making a problem illegal or banning it fixes everything? It seems to be a commonly accepted and wrong piece of reasoning everywhere.

Can we please stop using the Keynesian slur "hoarding" when talking about saving money? The term "hoarding" is more closely associated with the psycological disorder of collecting items to a point where it negatively affects their lives.

I second that motion!

Motion thirded? Cheesy There's an awful lot of neo-keynesian propaganda on this board considering it's about a decentralised currency.
