... Bring on the Mexicans!
ETA: Racial stereotype alert!
Yes, for idiot responders. Mexicans are a defined nationality, and they are not a "race". In the USA, "hispanic" is an ethnic group, defined by a group of surnames. Further, the "hispanic" group is like an "add-on," and can be claimed by members of pretty much every other group. F'r instance, when I'm not screwing with the census and claiming my 1/8 Pacific Islander heritage, I have to specify "White, non-hispanic." |

Fascinating, tell me more about your travels, President Satoshi Obama.
That's all the proof I need. You are Satoshi.  |

They'd have to prove that the files themselves are evidence of harm caused. CP is photographic proof of abuse, these are just cad designs.
One interesting thing that's not been mentioned about the 3d gun revolution. Historically, legal or illegal, guns have been hoarded. Old men have buried them in the yards in case their kids might need to dig them up decades hence. And totalitarian societies, prior to their worse abuses of human rights, strove to take all the guns away. But how does that change if ten million guns could appear from ten million homes overnight? Looks like a massive empowerment of the individual versus the state. Granted, one might still want weapons around if one feared the late night break in, the crazy gang going down the street shooting and raping, and so forth. But versus the state, a 3d printer in every home would exactly equal guns in every home. That is the stated purpose of DEFCAD. |

Please don't be too tough on this guy. Despite the way he might come out on these forums he seems like a nice fellow. He even refunded people their tickets so at least he is honest. I found a video lecture of him and to me he seems like a nice guy (though I admit that some of the showing off on these forums is not so great). http://vimeo.com/11018684Sure, he's nice. But he's dumb with money. No matter how nice a guy is, if he's dumb with money, you don't give him other people's money to play with. Unless he runs the Fed. |

But you're using it as such.
He posted at times inconsistent with living in Japan, he spoke perfect English, and used a Times of London quote in the genesis Block. Yet, you say that the simplest explanation, based entirely on his use of a Japanese pseudonym, is that he was Japanese.
Yes. Does it follow, then, that I am a deity from the Forgotten Realms? Obviously, Myrkul is dead, so I can't be him. Perhaps I'm Cyric, or Kelemvor, just pretending to be Myrkul? |

Should we be replying now for Round 2?
Yes, please.  again, the round 2 lineup: Ekaros <--> Rassah Cameltoemcgee <--> myrkul FCTaiChi <--> Elwar Foxpup <-->wdmw |

And a Japanese pseudonym is far from conclusive evidence that a person is Japanese.
Never said it was. But you're using it as such. He posted at times inconsistent with living in Japan, he spoke perfect English, and used a Times of London quote in the genesis Block. Yet, you say that the simplest explanation, based entirely on his use of a Japanese pseudonym, is that he was Japanese. |

Except that there's no such person as Satoshi Nakamoto.
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. And a Japanese pseudonym is far from conclusive evidence that a person is Japanese. |

So this is rather two sided question:
Stability of BTC
Stability of USD
I don't have much believe in BTC on short term and on USD on long term...
Well bitcoins aren't hedged to any one currency so depends on the stability of whatever base currency we use ") I think the devaluation of the US Dollar will have an equal affect on the increased value of the Bitcoin. *as priced in Dollars. |

Occam's razor works equally well on more than two options. It's possible that he was a Chinese person, using a Japanese pseudonym, and tailoring his posting habits and language to appear western. Or he could have been a space alien posting from the moon, using a hyper-tech translation program and a Japanese pseudonym. Occam slices all of those away as well.
It is most likely Satoshi is precisely as he says he is. Except that there's no such person as Satoshi Nakamoto. |

Its a very difficult question to answer. The true answer is that almost no companies are really privately owned in the united states. Basically only drug dealers  . what we are really dealing with here is a sliding scale between more government influence is less government influence. The federal reserve is about as far along this scale as you can travel without being considered a fully governmental agency. I'd actually argue that drug dealers have a higher chance of being "controlled" by the government than the Fed does. Mostly because the drug dealers (usually) can't afford to buy politicians. |

Thanks.. actually 8fold cheated, but I didn't catch that, and so built off his chain.

You're also trying to twist Occam's Razor into a false dichotomy.
Occam's razor works equally well on more than two options. It's possible that he was a Chinese person, using a Japanese pseudonym, and tailoring his posting habits and language to appear western. Or he could have been a space alien posting from the moon, using a hyper-tech translation program and a Japanese pseudonym. Occam slices all of those away as well. It's also possible that you are Satoshi, and throwing FUD to get people off your trail. |

Mine came over with men with pointy sticks on horses, killed anyone who disagreed and the 1% still has the families who took the land in 1066. They didn't leave a mission statement.
Maybe you could learn a lesson from mine, then? |

You now have meal powder / black powder. It is crappy gunpowder, but it will work.
Smokes like a bitch when it goes off, too. Nitrocellulose is a little more difficult (and dangerous!) to make, but it's a much better product. Both, as I said, can be touched off with a small electrical spark. |

1. A Japanese person is not allowed to be awake during certain hours of the day.
2. A Japanese person can't speak good English.
3. A Japanese person can't voluntarily refuse to communicate in Japanese.
1. A Japanese person is much less likely to be awake during certain hours of the night. 2. A Japanese person is apt to make specific grammatical errors, none of which Satoshi made. (It's speak English well, btw... "speak good English" is not good English. ) 3. A Japanese person would naturally be more comfortable speaking in his native language. These are not proof that Satoshi was in fact a US-based native speaker of English, but they are evidence. Let's hit this problem with Occam's Razor: Which is more probable, that a native English speaker would choose a Japanese pseudonym, or that a native Japanese speaker would choose a Japanese pseudonym, and then proceed to go to great lengths to pretend to be a native English speaker using a Japanese pseudonym? |

There is no reason to assume he is anything other than what he said he was, since neither you nor I can prove otherwise. Speculation is fine, but claiming it as fact is simply incorrect.
There are plenty of reasons: ...Satoshi was extremely well-versed in the English language, spent most of his time awake during Western hours, and never spoke Japanese while he was here, or anywhere where his name followed... |

Governments do not exist to provide services to their citizens. They exist because their citizens want a safe environment with clear laws and will use violence to ensure they get that. It's not a service - you can't decide that you don't want it.
I respectfully disagree, as did several gentlemen some 230-odd years ago: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, That "safe environment" is the service which governments ostensibly exist to provide. I don't know about yours, but mine put it in their "mission statement": We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. |
