Yeah.. I bet he also knows the bitcoin price for the next 365 days, up to 8 decimals. This is going to be one of those phrases we'll quote in the future for fun. Like "640K ought to be enough for anybody."

faucets , buy and sell altcoins for BTC , Signature campaigns
This can work, but I've also heard of people losing BTC by doing this. It depends which coins you buy, they price of altcoins can rise and drop like crazy. I've seen rises of 200%; This is known as pump&dump, and if you buy in the dump phase you can lose a lot of money.

There's also been a rise in low cost airlines too, ironically you get what you pay for - an airplane which crashes midair.
A slogan: You pay half the price, we get you half the way!Omg ... that is brutal ... I won't even laugh ... as I want to pay always full price in that case ... I must say one thing - it is horrible when we hear about plane crashes.. But still when we do our math ... more people die everyday in their cars killed by an accident that in airplanes. So still ... flying is less dangerous than driving. There is no correlation between driving and airplanes. In both situation you can die, there's no way to rule that out. That said, airplane pilots only get paid once they're in the air - and usually have enormous debts and a low salary.. they often fly with too few fuel and have to make an emergancy stop. It's logical that.. such situations occur.

I'm watching some BBC documentary then some some youtube advertising play, it was from syrian rebels fighting the syrian army. Then it asked me to subscribe them. Who financing this advertisement?
Google will show you any advertisement, no matter what's on it - unless it is against the interest of the US government. Probably Saudia Arabia is paying for the ad.

The European number of magazine of Newsweek went out with a wonderful cover: on a photo a president of Russia Vladimir Putin is spectacled, a fire blazes in which - straight as for a satan, we will say so. And central bearing-out «Derelict: into the bulletproof bubble of main enemy of western society» the unweak turned out also. The theme of number, certainly, is devoted Putin and his life, to not visible the world. When he wakes up, that eats on breakfast (curd and quail eggs), as accepts ministers, how many floats and that reads - http://dusia.telekritika.ua/content/images/original/99811.jpgIs this a comedy magazine? I wonder which government paid for this, pure propaganda. Let's not forget that Assange is still stuck in embassy without charge. And let's not forget collateral murder.

Different government have different laws on sexuality. It has nothing to do with justice, just the rules of a few gangsters with a lot of power. Even, within the US there are different laws. In parts of Texas, all of Alabama and various cities throughout the country, from Maine to New Mexico, the sale of sex toys as a crime.

Researchers compared 259 participants' willingness to lie and cheat by playing a simple game that could earn them $8
259? This dataset is... beyond tiny! I think this is way to small to make any conclusions. Looks like they were in a hurry to make the yearly publish record, and quickly ran this experiment.
Was comparison just west and east Germany too? Looks like it: Those who grew up in East Germany were twice as likely to cheat as those who grew up in capitalism in West Germany. And, the longer someone had lived in East Germany, the more likely they were to lie about the result of their dice rolls. It is just way too few data to make any conclusions. It's like I count 300 cars in Japan, and conclude all cars in the world must be of type Hyundai and Toyota

From an Aviationweek blog:
Which is just about my reaction to the Sovi... er, Russian explanations, official and otherwise, for the shootdown of MH17. Let's take two that have floated around the Internet.
The first is that the Ukrainian air force shot the Boeing 777 down itself, using a Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoot carrying an R-60 Aphid air-to-air missile (the only AAM normally carried by the Su-25). This would require some remarkable timing and a pilot immune to nose-bleeds, because the Su-25 can manage Mach 0.82 flat out, on a good day, and a 777 can do 0.89, and furthermore the Su-25 is unpressurized and has a normal service ceiling of 23,000 feet. No doubt coincidentally, on the day this claim was published, a Wikipedia editor with a Russian address was found trying to insert a 33,000-foot ceiling on the Su-25 page. As for the R-60, the 3 kg warhead's ability to assure a kill on a large aircraft with highly redundant systems is dubious at best.
A second theory is that two Ukrainian Su-27 fighters trailed the Boeing and somehow drew the missile on to it. Aside from the fact that the Buk-M1 is about as discriminating as a Rottweiler with ADHD, and that it could be activated at such a short range that the Su-27s would be inside its no-escape zone, the weakness of this story is its extreme similarity to the KGB-disseminated excuse for the shootdown of KAL 007, 31 years ago. The story then was that an RC-135 was deliberately shadowing the civilian 747, possibly using it to "ring the fire alarm" and gather data on Soviet air defenses.
The Ukrainian air force uses a modernized Su-25, which has a pressurized cabin (service ceiling up to 10,000 meters) and bears more powerful weapons. Also, the MH17 could have been downed by a jet fighter (like SU-27), for which it would make an easy target. True, modern jet fighters can go off the radar these days.. but still I think it doesn't make any sense to shoot down a passenger airplane for either side. I think either it was a set up by a secret service or an accident.

I received the conformation fast immediately, hours ago. I do not really know how to post TX. I used Electrum to pay.
Maybe the company is a scammer. What's your bitcoin address? You can see the transaction if you go to blockchain.info and paste your bitcoin address (public address of course)

Well I find it the natural follow up to the legalization of same sex marriage in many countries...., what's next Bestiality ? ....
I found "marriage" absurd on all its extent. Marriage is nothing but a dark age attempt to force someone to stay with someone else. It's also the bureaucratic hypocrites best thing! Take Muslims for an instance, they're mostly adulterers with strong anti-adultery laws. What would be just funny if they won't sentence anybody (women mostly) to death over that hypocrite non-sense. Perhaps we'll see soon all sexual fetishes legalized in Australia. I think it is rather extreme to legalize incest. Judge Garry Neilson, from the district court in the state of New South Wales, likened incest to homosexuality, which was once regarded as criminal and "unnatural" but is now widely accepted.
The judge should do more research before speaking, it is not widely accepted across the globe. see map https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d1/World_laws_pertaining_to_homosexual_relationships_and_expression.svg/350px-World_laws_pertaining_to_homosexual_relationships_and_expression.svg.png

Hi guys,
I haven't watched bitcoins news for a while, so I am not up-to-date. Since I want to purchase something on Amazon in the next days, I was wondering which services are there nowadays to pay with Bitcoins and if I might even save some money with them.
Your help is appreciated.
I think there were some guys running an intermediary service, who accepted btc and bought with usd. I forgot their name though;

That being said the whole Satoshi Paper was against any form of centralized control, and right now we are seeing BTC exchanges control btc.
A BTC exchange is not bitcoin, in the same way that piratebay is not bittorrent. Another difference is that you don't have to keep your money in an exchange, and many people on this forum advise against it. So I would like to know what this growing community thinks of btc exchanges setting price values as a whole are, are they against the whole idea of the Satoshi Paper in allowing a form of centralized control outside of bitcoin core to control it. Satoshi Paper took great pain to explain a potential flow in his paper, DISHONEST MINERS.
The price is based on supply/demand. They are not against the satoshi paper, just a couple of guys trying to make some profits. You have to remember that Bitcoin itself is decentralized, it's just you send your money into someone's wallet when you use an exchange - as in, you do not control it anymore.. but the bitcoin network itself is decentralized. Now I'm more concerned about who the heck is running the btc exchanges.
You do not have to use btc exchanges, simply have your own wallet. Well a prison exchange or drug exchange won't be regulated (LOL), but you know what I mean
Gold/Silver/Platinum exchanges all regulated Stock exchanges all regulated Currency exchanges all regulated Commodity exchanges all regulated
The bitcoin network is way more honestly regulated than the others - every transaction is confirmed by multiple nodes if they are valid. Invalid transactions get declined. The price BTC/USD will always change, as the USD is facing heavy manipulation and inflation.

I don't think this is going to change. it's just a fact. The threat of death reduces the criminality rate in the US. It should be implemented in EU to.
As I know, there were studies that claim that the threat of death penalty doesn't reduce criminality rates. It is the inevitability of punishment that does (and not necessarily of death penalty). To avoid futile discussion, let's compare numbers of willful killings in the EU and the US (per unit population indeed). Anyone got these figures? A mad person won't stop killing just because of a death threat. For example, there used to be a famous serial killer in the Ukraine who got off on killing people. No state has the right to kill its citizens, having said that, think I'd prefer the firing squad than choking to death slowly for 2 hours.
Almost seems like they're putting down an animal
A firing squad is way more humane. As a physician I've spent time trying to undue the damage that assholes like this cause. The only cruel and unusual punishment is the agonizing wait the victim's families have to endure. I say run him over with a car a couple times for good measure.
Why do we give medals to people that kill in the name of "honour" Then kill those that kill in the heat of emotion? The state or politicians traditionally got into power trough violence. In order to stay in power, they need violence - because their words of mouth are not strong enough. In one situation people kill and get medals, you are right. They usually have a lot of problems to adapt to the non-killer life after coming back to the US. Anyway they get medals because they did it in favour of a small interest group, who gains more profits and powers trough their actions.

This is one of the mere points of VK/facebook, other than showing ads in your face. Data is really powerful these days, I mean it was in the past too - but it's gotten way more powerful. These days data is money, it can save your life etc

The al-Qaeda-Inspired Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has ordered all girls and women between the ages of 11 and 46 in and around Iraq’s northern city of Mosul to undergo female genital mutilation, the United Nations said on Thursday.
“This is not the will of Iraqi people, or the women of Iraq in these vulnerable areas covered by the terrorists,” she added.
There is no logical reason for genital mutilation, it just demonstrates there are many retards on the world. Ironically it is in Iraq, "democracy yeah".. I think a cultural revolution is needed in Iraq.

lol... good luck with that. Nowadays with tools such as VPNs, TOR and I2P, it is near to impossible to track file-sharing. If some idiot is downloading the files without any precaution, then I don't have any sympathy for him. Politicians usually are not so technical skilled, they think the law simply applies to the digital sphere. Files will go trough the internet in one way or another, basically it's what the internet was made for - it's silly to try to destroy the infrastructure of the internet because they don’t like something.

Isn't the whole idea of buying BTC with credit cards just silly?
Transaction fee + people claiming they never bought the bitcoins and demanding refunds = costlier solution than a real ATM.
Depends on the speed, sometimes you just want to transfer fiat into btc quickly. True, there are transactions fees involved and it may be more costly than a regular ATM, but an advance could be the speed.
