How can you trust an OS that wants to "update" itself almost daily? Decentralized open source software is the way to go.

Speaking of which, when will we see an open source mobile OS to run on our ARM devices?
Word! No, I don't mean the Office malware package. |

The issue with linux is lack of software in specific domains. It's great for developers, usable for graphics, just not there yet for music.

By the way, I am still on the lookout for a reliable dead man switch arrangement. I'm afraid if anything happens to me, my family won't be able to collect. Any tips? Should I open yet another thread "out there"?
The best way I can see this working is by already transmitting the transaction, to a wallet that your family already own, but with a time delay of anywhere between a few months and a decade (depending on your desire for maintenance). I'd like to think this can be done by transmitting into a specific block in the future with nLockTime ( discussion here), but I may be wrong. Possibly there are features within the lightning network that can facilitate this as well but again not sure. This would act as the most reliable insurance for worst case scenarios, and don't already have shared custody set up, but more importantly would guarantee that your family get your Bitcoin, at an eventual date of your chosing - without the need for the switch, which is a single-point-of-failure in itself. What if you don't have access to your switch for example? Pragmatically speaking this is what you want I believe, a permanent solution dependent only on the variable of time, as opposed to your access to a switch. Hope that helps with the brainstorming. Thanks for your reply, dragonvslinux. Unfortunately, your proposed solution doesn't cut it for me. My family are mostly nocoiners. Besides, I don't like to set up a transaction to a different address. IMO, the coins shouldn't move if there is no need to cash out. What I would like to do is send an encrypted email with instructions on redeeming a wallet through its seed - and send it NOW. The dead man switch I am imagining would just send the key to decrypt the email containing the seed. |

Please guys, don't scare off that piece of shit too quickly - take it easy - I'm bored doing r0achie, need a new bitch to refresh.
Could he be ready for Kathleen's bike already, or do you reckon he needs toasting a little longer? |

As evidenced below: thanks for paying me in the last two days, Bob... that is why we are such buddy, buddies......  #NoHomo.[edited out]
Here is the list of people mr popular bob has been paying in the last 2 days {long ass list of people Bob bought a beer for, from a loose comment he made while drunk, which proves he is a man of his word. [He also offered me one even though I had only been lurking during that time]} He's unhinged, here is a link to his trust flag if you guys haven't supported it yet. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=2580400I've added my support to Lauda's warning, and added a trust rating of my own (without flags though, since I never came into direct contact with The Nutter Above All). |

am not googling lol surprise doll wtf is that
I think it's something innocent. Lols are small dolls produced in a variety of skins and attires. The point is collecting them all. Some girls are crazy about them - toddlers to teenagers. Surprise doll? Must mean unspecified series/attire, or something like that. |

Well, wasps can bite and bees can sting, can't they? Enough reason to not welcome them to my garden I think. To be honest I have never been sting by a bee but.... I hate when one disturbs my peace of mind while I am sunbathing because I think/fear it could sting me. I don't even like flies nor mosquitoes even if those won't bite me.
Wasps are dangerous and need to die by fire, but bees don't want to sting you as it is their last defense and then they die from using the stinger. Don't bother them and you can walk right through them. I had one queen Bee sting me when i was young but I sat on it! Damn that hurt.  If where you live supports bats then put up some bat houses and that will take care of the mosquito's. And making sure there is no standing water on your property keeps the mosquitoes and flys away as well. Wasps more dangerous than bees? Why? I mean, I don't really know. To me both are just annoying when it comes to me trying to relax. No big deal though... But if I can have then away of my close proximity I am happier. Avoiding standing water on my property is not possible as I have a big pool just side to the house... It doesn't seem to particularly attract mosquitoes (probably because I have it chlorinated and perfectly clean all year round). Also mosquitoes don't bite me (or if they do, which probably do, I don't get an itch nor notice anything). I will consider the bats houses thing (will google about it) as I don't mind bats... But I don't think my GF will approve that. It already took me a lot of effort reasoning about the convenience of putting some geckos (which she strongly and irrationally fears/hates) "housing" on the outside. Maybe my dislike of wasps/bees is also irrational. Go figure. It's my garden though.  Wasp, bees, bio warfare. Wasps are more aggressive (many wasps are predators, while bees are vegetarian). Wasp stings are generally more painful than bee stings. However, bee stings are more likely to cause serious anaphylaxis and death in allergic individuals. Geckos are moderately useful for keeping mosquitoes in check. Bats are better, but they prefer to feast on small flies (fruit flies etc), usually more numerous than mosquitoes. They are also a good indicator of clean air, since they can't survive in heavily polluted areas. The best bio-weapon for mosquitoes are ladybirds (ladybugs) from what I've heard and read. They are relentless predators of anything that moves. They are already effective at the larval stage. Preferred food: aphids, but they do eat mosquitoes too. The ideal solution would be some aquatic predator that could clear mosquitoes while they're aquatic larvae, but I don't know about any widely adopted specific solution. Frogs anyone? |

I have a feeling we're going to greet goodby Bossian soon.
The shit hit the sock, with LFC bet.
I think that if Bossian really wants to honor the bet, he could settle with GoosEscrow(TM) and state it out loud. Most WO peeps know those funds are safe with micgoossens, if anyone. He's the guy who routinely pays up prizes for his games - from his personal funds and without a blink. The value of the prizes is significantly larger than this bet amount. |

Gentlemen, FFS! I'm just done catching up and you post over 3 pages in a few hours? This won't end well.

I'd keep the Sarah bit out of the main hostname, but maybe it's just me... |

Bossian, I see your point about the time of the bear. It does make some sense, but my attention vanishes when you go on and talk about 1k.
The descending line in the last chart starts in November. I guess it would have been difficult (impossible, more like) to draw from a point further back in time?

Updating Direwolf's digest. (JSRAW, we're doing what we can, but it's not our job!)
The Goose volunteers as betkeeper. LFC is happy with that. Bossian doesn't endorse escrow.
Goldkingcoiner shows how to properly quote the Roach, in specific contexts.
Pamoldar shares a special birthday.
And I finally caught up too.

I've got some slight life issues ATM. Watching the corn doesn't help a bit.
Shitty times come, shitty times go. Waiting.
Well, at least I had no boating accident yet.

You did not sufficiently off-set with a short this time around? I cashed it out already, and I won't short again right now. |
