This time wanna take profits.

Taking back the rainbow for stoners



Nobody owns rainbows, they're a natural phenomenon. I do have a particular issue with the way the alphabet people are using it because they originally were using it to promote tolerance but now it's all about exclusion and all sorts of nonsense.

People have long since forgotten that Vitalik actually said in the beginning [and I'm paraphrasing] that "Ethereum is NOT a competitor to Bitcoin. I didn't build it for that, and it's not suited for that. In fact, Ethereum should not be used as a form of money or currency like Bitcoin. Use Bitcoin instead."

I'm sure if what he said was written or captured somewhere on the internet, it has long since been buried or retconned. He would not want his beloved cult followers to know that he said or thought that.

...tactic of pushing BTC to millions of people in El Salvador at the same time with almost no attempt at prior education is reckless, and risks a large number of innocent people getting hacked or scammed. Shame on everyone (ok, fine, I’ll call out the main people responsible: shame on Bitcoin maximalists) who are uncritically praising him...

Anyway, had a great week with Rick - First great week we've had together since recovering from COVID19, and him retiring. Getting used to this whole retirement thing together is very nice. Weekends have effectively ceased to have any day-to-day meaning to us now, as we're starting to go out and do things every day now, so... Life is good kinda deal.

Prepping to have friends over for a party tomorrow afternoon, to celebrate Rick's retirement.

Life is good.

Have a great one, friends.

...I believe that cryptocurrency is an inherently right-wing, hyper-capitalistic technology built primarily to amplify the wealth of its proponents through a combination of tax avoidance, diminished regulatory oversight and artificially enforced scarcity...

...The cryptocurrency industry leverages a network of shady business connections, bought influencers and pay-for-play media outlets to perpetuate a cult-like ‘get rich quick’ funnel designed to extract new money from the financially desperate and naive...

...Cryptocurrency is like taking the worst parts of today’s capitalist system (eg. corruption, fraud, inequality) and using software to technically limit the use of interventions (eg. audits, regulation, taxation) which serve as protections or safety nets for the average person...

...This is the type of dangerous ‘free for all’ capitalism cryptocurrency was unfortunately architected to facilitate since its inception...

New poll incoming. Old poll results:

How much of your stash would you sell if Satoshi's coins moved to an exchange?

Pfft left and right nowadays are just two sides of the same coin. They both want to limit individual freedom, one wants big government the other big corporations to govern us.

I an absolute retard and use a locked-down/encrypted Mac Mini for my hardware wallet, running Bitcoin Core.

That's right.

I'm clearly banana bread in the head.

Yeehaw!

The Coinfloor feed isn't updating now. They appear to be migrating to CoinCorner, so this is probably terminal and another source will need to be found.

Not actually the first post. The "Explanation" link was added after everyone got fed up with people asking what it was all about.  (Actually, may have been when people got concerned about ip harvesting from the external link I had before).

This is actually the first available. Slightly higher price but we were in that awful bear market.



There were earlier ones but they have expired from the server they were on.

oooooooooohh...  niiiiiice...
that looks large enough to land a small sea plane.   Like say an ICON A5.    

Very nice.   more pics very welcome.
