Survival of the fittest is the name of the game here, and your mismanagement of your funds has proven you do not have what it takes.
We still need something to regulate our life in Bitcoin world. An instrument that allows to "reverse" a payment if there were no delivery of the good would be very handy. +1 I see you have caught on to Rarity's interesting form of sarcasm. Took me a while  |

I support this. Until the exchanges have independent account balance audits from a reputable firm, things like anti-fractional reserve day are a must. Personally, I have very few coins on any exchange already because none of them have proper auditing or insurance.
Anti fractional reserve decade sounds better. Nobody wants a collapse of the countereit system in a day. That would be messy. A good target is 15 years. How are we doing towards that target? Metrics anyone? |

Their 'books' are no good as they can be easily forged.
Oh really? Forge me some TXs then. Can you make it look like Satoshi sent me 1000 coins in 2009 please? |

While you're busy chewing on that red herring, you might be interested to note that a new flavor of red herring came out a long time ago. Ben stopped claiming it was antennas in Alaska that caused the earthquakes but now it is nuclear devices placed in deep drilling holes. Still ruins the taste a bit of the already over-sensationalized financial info but hey, he does have an interesting style. I wonder what he's saying on Japan Sky TV now.

He makes some pretty good points but then with a completely straight face goes off on how the US threatens Japan with artificial earthquakes. Like, EVEN IF IT'S TRUE (monumental IF), how is anyone supposed to believe it or take him seriously anymore?
About the artificial earthquake please look further with HAARP project. In fact, it is probably much easier than you think to provoke artificial earthquake. This is done by sending vibrations into the ground with the same frequency than natural frequency of the earth (on weak point). You can do this with any kind of material and it allows to break them with pretty low amount of energy. This is a phenomenon called resonance. This is the exact same phenomenon used by a singer that breaks a glass of crystal only with his voice.

I see no fruitful way of arguing this. Your money is/was with Pirate. The PPT operators only provided a service and collected a small fee for that service.
The only question I would be interested in if I had paid a unaccountable pseudonym to give money to a BullShit trust would be: Did they actually give my money to the bullshit trust? This is bitcoin, if they had given the money obviously they would have proven it beyond a shadow of a doubt. If they didn't, well I'll let you connect the dots. |

First, go look up what social capital means, comprehend the definition, then come tell me how THAT relates to an intruder forcing their way into my basement, kicking down my interior door, knowing that I am in there, and intending harm to anyone inside. Please be specific. Specificity is important when life and death is at stake.
Well thanks for providing that extra specific information which you had left out before. Yes the details of "kicking down an interior door, knowing you are there, and intending to harm anyone inside" do make a difference to your earlier statements, though they don't provide a clear story in my mind. Why does this guy want to harm you? There's a lot to read about social capital, the wikipedia article seems not too far off my ideas on the subject, but in my opinion its just an idea to keep in mind and I'm not going to recommend devoting hours to study the concept. One easy way to measure it in an area is to see how quickly you will be picked up when hitchhiking. Japanese seem to have a very high level of it. Often big cities lack in it. Another way to measure social capital might be how quickly you are shot at when entering a home or how many locks and fences are up around the neighborhood. |

The home is all inclusive. Family and loved ones, various assets, property, and most certainly my favorite coffee cup... not cup of coffee.
This has absolutely nothing to do with statute/criminal law, enforcement, or penalties.
Its a big ole bear protecting the den, cubs, and feeding grounds. Its a skunk spraying when threatened. Its a rattlesnake biting a predator. It protecting and defending whats yours. I can accept if you know nothing of this, if you have not worked and traded blood, sweat, tears, and time for anything you value, and created a home and a family you value.
Most criminals bank on citizens and home owners not being armed. Its conditioning. If they break into your home, they are fair game, and the police didnt stop them. They react. If you dont instantly react, you risk the harm or death of someone you love. For me, that is not problem to kill someone else to save a loved one,property, assets, or self, because they all mean the survival of my bloodline. I have no problem killing and field dressing big game. A predatorial intruder is no different.
If you allow yourself hesitation, you may have just aided in the murder of your kids, wife, mother, father.
You sir sadly come from an area that is lacking in social capital. The symptoms of this are easy to see, total fear and distrust. I'm guessing you are not going to stop and pick up any hitchhikers or help out a stranded traveller with some money for food. Let me guess, you can't just go over to your neighbor's house anytime and look in their cupboard for flour if you are out. Sorry to hear it. |

#6 What drugs are you on at the moment? List Legal and Non Legal.
That's a very rude question. How many bitcoins do you have? I've never done drugs (at least not knowingly) in my life.
I've heard people say this before and I've always stood in wonder.. what could they possibly mean? Really they have no concept of what the word drug means? Despite the importance drugs have had in human society? A dictionary might be helpful if that is really the case.. More likely it is kind of a statement of faith, like claiming the virgin birth or Joseph Smith really had gold tablets delivered by angels. You say it not because you really think its true, but to prove to others you are better than them or part of some elite club. Or it means something else? Enlighten me. Well I'm not so interested in the elite club unless it helps improve human knowledge and make us safer and smarter so I'm gonna go send some coins to Erowid instead. If you have any interested in drugs as a hater and/or user you will appreciate their resources. And you will like they have a coin logo on their front page now http://www.erowid.org/donations/donations_bitcoin.php |

Thanks! Let me give a TL;DR recommendation: the last 1 minute is by far the best part |

defense of what? your life, your house, your favorite coffee cup?
for me, the list of things valuable enough to kill for is rather short. for you, obviously not.
The point is, after someone has forced their way into your home, are you prepared to deal with the consequences of not defending yourself with deadly force? Yeah, the door is open. Help yourself to a beer from the fridge.
What do you suggest? Discussion? "Hello sir, are you here to kill me and my loved ones, or just take my stuff?"
I'm sorry, I just don't understand the need for leniency against someone who is willing to force their way into someone's home.
I saw some guys who forced their way into my town. Discussion was out of the question. Some other guys forced their way onto the street. Took care of them pretty quick I tell ya. They were seriously within like 200 yards of my wife. What am I supposed to go out and ask them if there's a long range rifle under the coat? Seriously though, I've had strangers in my home on many occasions, and also been robbed of some small goods on a couple of occasions. Never was I tempted to use violent force, and life went on with no big trouble. Just sayin' |

S.DICE does seem like the best 'legit' investment on either exchange though. cash flow is sick. To get 20% yield in the global bond market, you gotta go greek.
And I think we can all agree SatoshiDICE will be around much longer than Greece όχι |

I like the enthusiasm, but I would say don't bother.
1) We need oxygen too
2) good ideas sell themselves
3) do you want bitcoin to look like groupon?

Just for some perspective, China has a very oppressive communist government, has something like 1.6-1.7 billion people, and only has something like 1.2 million prisoners. United States by contrast only has 310-320 million people and imprisons 2.3 million or so people.
In China, they just kill you instead. "Watchdog groups believe that actual execution numbers greatly exceed officially recorded executions; in 2009, the Dui Hua Foundation estimated that 5,000 people were executed in China — far more than all other nations combined.[2] The precise number of executions is regarded as a state secret." In the US, it's more like 50 deaths/year. 50 per year you say? I was under the impression that NYC police alone execute close to that number per year. Heck Obama's personal kill list is longer than 50 right? Just wondering if you included people like Chavis Carter or Abdulrahman al-Awlaki in the list? Oh and of course, yes the precise number in the US is also regarded as a state secret: http://www.mapinc.org/drugnews/v04/n772/a05.htmlIf you include people who were so retarded as to be born in other places like Iraq, this number might get just a tad bit higher than the 5000 you quote from china. But looking carefully yes, these people all were alleged criminals, allegedly black, allegedly poor, allegedly terrorists, or allegedly jewish.. so yeah they had it coming to 'em right? After all if you can't kill innocent women and children after labelling them terrorists or drug dealers, you can't really call yourselves a civilized nation can you? |
