Windows 7 was the death of computing.  Shifting from single CPU cores and closer to the metal systems to bloated abstraction layers and APIs.  In other words, everything about things from that period forward were focused on SERVER and multi-tasking performance (things like apache web servers) at the expense of workstation performance (things like video games and end user latency).  

And now you have people going even more overboard in that path pretending that it's valid to create video games the same way CG movies are done - in post processing render layers.  The purpose of a video game is it's supposed to be real-time.  I'm surrounded by idiots.  So, Windows XP is still technically the best gaming OS for things like latency.  Whether it's turd-like Linux distros even more focused on multi-tasking than Windows is, or Windows itself, none of these OS's after Windows XP should even exist for real-time or gaming performance, only for office work and servers.

Since this thread is read by half the spooks in the world, I would like everyone to welcome aboard Anne Neuberger from the evil cult of Judaism to be the NSA's cybersecurity director.  Since allowing a woman to be in charge of anything related to computers or warfare is completely asinine, we can rest assured the leader of the free world - god emperor Putin - will be most happy with this choice.

That's not the way you should think of Bitcoin.  Since it's a valueless pump and dump scam that's designed to centralize and doesn't have any fundamentals besides temporary regulatory arbitrage, it's more like a smash and grab robbery and you should be thankful for anything you can grab ahold of worth more than zero and run out the door with.

^Yea, it works at temporary regulatory arbitrage, until it's unobfuscated network traffic is simply turned off LOL.  Or you know, they send the SWAT team to knock on the door of the extremely centralized, giant ASIC warehouses the size of a football stadium that are impossible to miss.  Or track down the IPs of people running nodes.  Or Require all transactions within the country be routed through domestic miners which are all required to perform in-house AML/KYC making it the ultimate cashless society slavery system with biometric ID.

I see Trollgoossens is telling lies about Hirohito and Adolf again.  Why are the exact same stories in the news about Trump?  Do the Jews just claim everyone they don't like has a micropenis?

Project Mayhem success:

I think Dan Bilzerian was the man to officially end the paradigm of women being seen as some type of asset or status symbol.  His life was empty and meaningless so he attempted to seek out bimbos and social media validation to fill the void in his life.  He went so completely overboard trying to do this, other men saw the pictures and were like:  Wow, this is just sad; this is even worse than people who take pictures of their food.  Then men started to question: Who am I?  Why am I here?  Would the ancient Romans and Greeks laugh at me for acting in such a clownish, Dan Bilzerian manner.  What would Hitler do?

You and Trollgoossens stop posting pictures of bagles.  Post a picture of your physical silver stack.  Good floors, though.  Also one of the few people with a ball and chain that doesn't have a ridiculous looking, female decorated house. In Trollgoossen's pictures you can tell it's some sort of Barbie playhouse nightmare and he just exists there as a prop while she controls everything.

Most of the big moneychangers on earth at places like the squid are aware of my posts.  All of these people were hesitant about digital shitcoins in the first place because they're already wealthy and have no desire in being fleeced by a fly by night scam.  They worked hard to steal it all, you know?  

Since I'm one of the few people capable of explaining these things in non-jibberish form, pretty much everyone now knows none of these things have any actual fundamentals and are all just pump and dump scams.  They are therefore hostile towards being coerced into them with any of their own money when things like silver and gold are in inverse bubbles and a no-brainer to buy instead.  Nobody that already has any sort of money wants to play Russian roulette buying digital shitcoins in a momentum trade that can go catastrophically bad due to zero fundamentals when there's easy asymmetric trades at hand. 

Good luck getting the 'real' Satoshi to show itself on the verge of people claiming the price is going to $100k - $1 million a coin while only having a $3k cost of production or $6k post halving.  Meaning it's completely impossible without mining expanding so much that it would use more power than every nation on earth.  So it either fails to generate the Ponzi profits people claim then goes into a death spiral leaving everyone homeless, or every square inch of the world is covered in ASIC miners and instantly banned.  Either way he would be facing a firing squad as the Ponzi comes to a conclusion one way or another.

Bitcoin does not solve Byzantine generals because the basis of Byzantine generals is really just a Sybil attack and Bitcoin is not, and has never been Sybil proof when it's possible for the same guy to own every mining pool on earth in secrecy.  A single guy can therefore be operating right out in the open in a 51%+ attack state in perpetuity.  This has likely been the real world case for a good duration of Bitcoin's existence with the Bitmain monopoly and ownership of more than one pool, and secretly stashing hash power in different pools.

To attempt to fix this problem, you would need to use the Andrew Miller idea of non-outsourceable puzzle box to prevent the use of pools at all.  In that scenario, there would be more incentive for large hash rate actors to keep their hash rate pooled in the same place instead of diffusing it and would be more easy to identify, but since they can still selectively hide their resources in multiple locations to operate wide out in the open as a 51%+ monopoly, essentially colluding with themselves - Sybil - Bitcoin would still not solve Byzantine generals.  

It's 100% impossible to create a decentralized digital currency for numerous reasons such as this, from transaction validators being designed to centralize, to being unable to even check how centralized they are.

I think there's some sort of extreme mental illness in a lot of humans.  Take for example this Dan Morehead guy from Pantera Capital and Mike Novogratz.  I don't know the exact number, but these people are worth like half a billion to a billion dollars.  Besides building a Dyson sphere, it's enough money to do just about whatever you want to do.  Instead of going off and doing whatever, these people spend their lives in financial conferences to try and make EVEN MORE money off financial Ponzi scams.

So, at that point none of it is really about anything other than power over other humans, which leads to two pathways - some form of latent psychopathy, or a more general, primitive, bonobo-style, ape-like desire to be the most important ape in the totem pole. In other words, it's not really possible for these people to be 'advanced' or smart.  They can only really be one of two things, psychopaths or primitive monkeys seeking social hierarchy, power structure relevance due to the way they spend their time.  The alternative argument would be they want to 'shape' the world in their image somehow, but I doubt many of these tech billionaires have any real coherent plan that isn't just some offshoot of psychopathy or bonobo egoism and you're back to square one.

And he argues for...socialism...plus mandatory biometric ID chain anchor in a cashless society slavery system so people can't double dip on the welfare socialism.  Totally legit....

Might get to see a repeat of that.  The average man on the street is completely tapped out.  The millenial generation supposedly has 40% less wealth than the previous generation did at the same age.  I wouldn't be surprised if that figure was low-balled and they have even less.  In other words, there is nobody that exists to take the other side of the trade and be the greater fool to buy imaginary, valueless, digital scamcoins.
JayJuanGee's only hope is literally for Jamie Dimon himself to be the greater fool and come in and buy digital shitcoins from him.  What could go wrong?

Another day of noobs and scammers that don't know how bitcoin is *supposed* to work and think it's some sort of proof of stake system.  The entire point of PoW is that miners are supposed to be the only thing that matters.  You're not supposed to be forced to buy coins from a middleman exchange and face price gouge extortion by cartels if you want to use Bitcoin.  YOU - meaning everyone that uses the system - are supposed to BE the miner and mine your own coins, and that's where decentralization is supposed to originate from.

It requires some form of permanent, commodified, off the shelf, non-cornered, mining hardware, which has been shown to be impossible with things like ASICs, so Bitcoin's death really occurred the day the first ASIC was created and it's all just pump and dump scam ever since.  The simple act of claiming "what miners do doesn't matter" is just admitting the fact that Bitcoin is a failure, that mining turns into a completely centralized cartel with absolutely nothing resembling a Nash equilibrium at all.  Instead of admitting Bitcoin is a designed to centralize failure, they just make up some random bullshit claiming miners don't matter to try and keep the Ponzi going.

Incoming stupid JayJuanGee post pretending he's wiser than Aristotle and not a simple fly by night, digital scamcoin grifter.

'Stock to flow' only works on real, physical commodity resources humans actually need, not Bitcoins which are imaginary, valueless timestamps and not a commodity or resource.  If stock to flow worked on digital shitcoins, there would not be numerous dead, PoW, digital craptocurrencies out there already - they would still be alive.  

Things like "KanyeWestCoin", "TrumpCoin", and "CryptoShekel" would just steadily increase in price forever due to halvings - an artificial scarcity Ponzi scam - reducing supply.  But that is not what happens because nobody on the face of the planet actually needs any imaginary digital scamcoin because they aren't resources.  If you hoard all 21 million digital shitcoins, you have zero power because it's not a real commodity resource and you can't force anyone to buy them from you.  If you hoard a real form of commodity money like silver, the world actually needs it so you get to charge whatever the market can bear and 'stock to flow' actually works.  This is why Aristotle says money is required to be a physical commodity.

It is time to drop the hammer and foreclose on those digital shitcoins:

Can you please stop these anti-semitic attacks on Steven Mnuchin.

Me and Mnuchin are gonna drop the hammer on this bitch.
