I think the A's are a good bet, especially with Colon on the mound... but the Rangers fan in me is going to stay away from that one because I want need them to lose.

I still might be moving up to Detroit in the next year, but likely I will be in Sterling Heights Tongue

100% of my family has said to stay way the fuck away from downtown.  I'm going up for a visit next month and we are going to cruise around and scope out the hoods.

There were some cheapies in the suburbs, too, but they clearly need a lot of work.  Still seems like a fun project, but maybe you could make a bitcoin community in Warren or something.  Typically better than Detroit...

I assume you bet this on either Nitrogen or a cash book. Congrats on the win man.

Nitrogen... thats an ugly copy/paste hehe

 Thanks man.  It was definitely a good day for me, went 5-0.

I'm going with the Rangers again today.  I see another 4-5 game winning streak in their future.

If you still have it in a few weeks I will probably do that Smiley

Gotta get a few other things in order before I need another GPU though...

I'm going to sell my house in Texas and use the proceeds to buy 20 houses in Detroit. 
1469  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crowdfund Homes in Detroit? on: August 06, 2013, 01:36:41 AM

Yet in this case its deal, deal then DEAL!   You make it what you want it to be. If for some reason Detroit turns it around you ( us ) are sitting on a goldmind as Bitcoiner's. Just my 2 cents.

Also, it's a relatively cold climate, and with an AC unit, a basement could be ideal for hosting miners.  E-Commerce can be done from a basement as well.

Both of these things would help the Bitcoin community.

Well, I've convinced my wife, I think.  We are looking for houses and crime rate.  Most of my family lives north of Detroit in the safer areas.

We are looking to buy 4 or 5 houses in close proximity... could be fun.  If not, then I can always bail and move to the safe zone in Sterling Heights Tongue

I'm not an artist... feel free to draw whatever you want. My idea is just an idea of an accountant, which isn't exactly the most creative mind in the world!

Still got a week left!

What country was successfully invaded and taken over by an airforce?   none.
troops have to take and hold ground.   Not easy to do with 105 Million armed civilians.   You need to take all the 300 Million guns back first.  I do not think you understand this point.   One could argue that the 2nd is MORE about protecting the country from FOREIGN invaders than its own government.   Read it.   

Invaded and taken over?  None.

I'd say that Japan could give you two reasons why an Air Force is quite helpful in winning a war without the need to invade.

As for the text, I think it's pretty clear that it was intended for securing a free state regardless of whether those infringing on those rights were foreign or domestic.  I agree to your points, and I kind of think we are saying the same thing, but thinking about different scenarios.  I don't think anyone could occupy the USA, except the US Military.  I don't believe that our country doesn't have enough people with the stones to actually overthrow the government.

All of my knowledge comes from 6 years in the USAF, and numerous hours of Sid Meier's Civilization.  Tongue

I'm trying to convince my wife to move to Detroit.

Got a lot of family there and would definitely welcome the cold climate... my mining rig would love to have a home in a basement. Smiley

I haven't used Block Erupters before, but I have read that CGMiner hates them.

BFGMiner is the goto miner for Block Erupters (and I believe all ASIC devices)

I guess you learned that lesson from the poorly armed afgan taliban?   How many 50 cal are in private hands in the USA?    And "small" arms can be used to get into invader's depots and get better weapons.   And then people come help and give you more arms (just to eff with the invaders :  afganistan and russia, then USA)

Ehhh... I think you are missing the point.  The right to bear arms was much more paramount to the publics protection from their government when the Bill of Rights was drafted.  You know, before the government had nuclear warheads and multi-billion dollar destruction machines.

Even if you get your hands on that 50 cal, the captain in the F-16 will just laugh as he shoots a 60 cal at you from the air.

If the tyranny gets to you and you want to revolt, you will need a lot more than what you can legally get your hands on.   Of course, the only way anything would be succesful is if you could form a coup with some inside help, IE a general or admiral would be of significant strategic advantage.

It would be very hard unless you could manage to stage a massive amount of troops in Canada and/or Mexico without the US knowing.

Being sandwiched between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans and having the largest naval and air power in the world has it's advantages.  Namely, a ground invasion would be pretty damn hard to accomplish...

Funny thing about small guns... they don't particularly work well against tanks and missiles...
