1  Economy / Trading Discussion / What is the legitimacy of the people selling prepaid credit cards? on: August 28, 2015, 03:26:57 AM
I have seen a few postings offering prepaid credit cards, and I was hoping to maybe get one. The problem is that I'm not sure about how legit a business it is and how to check that they are not stolen cards, or something. The thing is that I was hoping to buy something online at a place that doesn't accept bitcoins and I don't want to wait for a credit card or have to pay any expenses for using my own money (because middlemen make things so much more complicated and expensive).
Also, is there anyone here you've bought prepaid credit cards from (or have purchased an equivalent service from)? I hear about a Xapo and some other bitcoin-related businesses giving you debit cards, can they be used online, or only for BTC transactions?
Thanks in advance, have a good one.
2  Other / Politics & Society / So, which shootings do we call terrorism? on: July 25, 2015, 05:37:49 PM
Dylan Roof   killed 9 people, injured none. Joseph Jesse Aldridge killed 8 people, injured 1. Thomas Jessee Lee killed 5, injured none. Cedric G. Prather, 5 killed, 2 injured. Christopher Carrillo killed 5 people and injured none. Michael “Augustine” Bournes killed 5 and injured none.
Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez killed 5 people and injured 3 people.
Which shooting was jumped on at a moment's notice, with mentions of terrorism? What determines who is called a terrorist? Religiously motivated violence? "Terrosim" is an arbitrary way to label violence, a way to drive the narrative. Don't be fooled by it.
3  Other / Off-topic / A webcomic I want to recomend on: July 12, 2015, 04:39:32 AM
If you recently have a lot of time in your hands, be sure to check out viruscomix. It's a really good and though-provoking comic. For best effect, read it from the beginning, there's a bit of lore that's really great to see develop. It doesnt update often, tough http://www.viruscomix.com/subnormality.html
