Every single offering in this thread is either bogus or simply doomed.

That sound so strangely familiar.  As if a guy going by crumbs said the very same thing about two years ago...
who'd of thunk it? crumbs was right... too bad he was such an asshat about it, people might have listened.

 Speaking of asshats, Steve Ballmer said in 2007 - "There's no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share. No chance. It's a $500 subsidized item. They may make a lot of money. But if you actually take a look at the 1.3 billion phones that get sold, I'd prefer to have our software in 60% or 70% or 80% of them, than I would to have 2% or 3%, which is what Apple might get."

 Imagine if we'd listened to him and not invested in Apple.

It wouldn't even get to a dollar before people stopped mining which would result in extremely long (possibly infinite) confirmation times and that would most likely be the end of bitcoin.

 So you're talking about withdrawal symptoms then.  In large doses it can kill you and that would be the ultimate downer.


Indeed.
It's funny how caffeine can be found in nearly every store and product, but other drugs can't... in fact are deemed illegal by the man.

Have you seen this study on web building spiders on different drugs? http://www.badspiderbites.com/spiders-on-drugs/

The caffeine web is by far the most fubar. lol.

 Very interesting!  In the same vein but a slightly different light, have a look at this Canadian Wildlife service documentary on the topic of feeding drugs to spiders.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg3i3ZhhAPk

Too much caffeine?

I eliminated that (besides decaf coffee & rootbeer) nearly 3 years ago and have tons more energy than when I was drinking coffee through the day + energy drinks + diet coke. Tons more energy amazingly!

Running & sex help too. = Endorphines

That might be it too, because I drink 2-3 cups a day

But it's hard to give up on coffee  Cry

And I'v been drinking coffee since I was 8

Decaf still has some caffeine in it but less than 10% of full strength.
If you try it do half decaf / half regular for a couple days. When I did it, on the 2nd day I felt like I could fall asleep walking. Seriously! Then by the 3rd day I was fine and moved to straight decaf. I probably drink 2 cups a day still, but it's nothing compared to 2-3 cups full strength coffee... or tea.

Caffeine is actually a downer not an upper. So it ultimately makes you more tired vs more wired.

 Are being satirical when you say caffeine is a downer.  I can't tell but in case you are not, caffeine is in fact a a stimulant.


You're right, it's a stimulant.

I was talking "ultimately" or "in the end" (of a buzz) it can make your depressed or sluggish. Caffeine is a drug and taken in large doses it can sometimes have the opposite effect on a body because your body goes into fight or flight mode and counteracts the drug.

 So you're talking about withdrawal symptoms then.  In large doses it can kill you and that would be the ultimate downer.

Quitting caffeine will cause withdrawal symptoms similar to what you are currently experiencing (fatigue and an inability to concentrate) but those would be temporary (about 10 days).   I don't imagine giving up coffee will give you "tons more energy".  You'd probably be further ahead to quit all forms of artificial light after dinner (including your smart phone and computer monitor) and keep regular hours.

Okay, I will stop smoking

However, I still think it's only the matter of room temperature, because I couldn't get any REM sleep at 30+ C

 Have you tried e-cigarettes?  You can get the nicotine without all the other nasty chemicals in the cigarette smoke.

So there's absolutely zero chance that OP is suffering weekly nicotine withdrawal from

I light 2-3 cigs on the weekends and that's it

?

I guess I was transported to an alternate universe where nicotine isn't addictive at all to anyone, then. Bye.

 Some are more susceptible to nicotine's addictive nature than others.  In particular, the adolescent brain is more sensitive to the effects of nicotine and therefore more susceptible to its addictive properties.  I don't think you will find a definitive answer on how many cigarettes you have to smoke to become addicted to nicotine.

Actually, Bitcoin had its own glitch with the recent fork, but I don't see where one has to do with the other.

8155  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: July 08, 2015, 09:57:32 PM
I agree with you, holding btc for a long time might make you a huge amount of profit instantly if it goes up. But I wouldn't personally do that myself because I don't depend on miracles like that anymore. The time has passed, this ain't no 2 years go. The price went up yesterday but only by $10-15 dollars. Waiting for bitcoin to pass $1000 again is just ludacris to me. But I believe there's still a chance for btc to increase in it's value as more people use it, and look at Greece, for ex. online PayPal has been banned, this is a good chance for btc.



 Yeah that's jus' Ludacris.

I am a life long supporter of The Toronto Maple Leafs, and I feel that AM is a little bit the same as my beloved Leafs.
I think they still have a chance.

 As much as I would love to see this as well, neither the Leafs nor Asicminer will ever win the Stanley Cup again.  The Leafs don't need to as they are the most valuable NHL franchise without even having to make it into the playoffs - why spend the money on a winning team? Just imagine if they did start winning; tickets would be even more unaffordable for mere mortals!
  As far as Asicminer, they only ever had one star player (and it seems he was also the entire team) but he's gone like Bill Barilko.

Two laws are good for me
1) Do unto others as you would have them do to you. I.e. mutual respect and tolerance.
2) In all actions first ask yourself, if everyone on the planet does what you about to do, would the planet be better off.

 2) I am about to unwatch this thread... yeah it's best for the planet.

not to my address... you send to any address you want. even another yours. what do you think could go wrong with that? if 10,000 same transactions, same amount, same wallet, from windows computer.. antpool has problem mining{processing transactions} which causes a single transaction sent more than once

 If you need a common address to send the money from though, you need a common trust among the participants and I doubt you could achieve that amount of trust from the scammers who would attempt to defraud others with 104 phoney transactions.  Surely one of them would empty the wallet of the .1234 coins before the specified start time.

It could be sleep apnea.  What happens is that during sleep you don't breathe for several seconds to minutes or you take very shallow breaths.  The carbon dioxide builds up in your blood and triggers a chemical response to wake you up so you will breathe properly.  It happens many, many times during the night so you don't get a proper sleep (or any sleep really) and you will feel tired all the time.  It can lead to the symptoms you describe due to the mounting sleep debt.

 If you snore while sleeping, in all likelihood you have obstructive sleep apnea (this is the most common type but there are other forms of sleep apnea).  I have obstructive sleep apnea and I was experiencing similar symptoms to yours.  I now wear a mouthpiece, when I sleep, that keeps my lower jaw lifted slightly to prevent airway obstruction and it made a big difference.  That device is referred to as a mandibular advancement splint; it fits over your teeth and can be made for you by any dentist.  It cost about the price of a decent video card.   There is also a device called a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine you can get that will breathe for you when you don't.  It is quite expensive and difficult to get used to (I am told).

  I would check into the physical nature of your problem before delving into the psychological.  Sleep apnea is pretty common - it affects approx. 4% of the males and 2% of females.

 Good luck!
