Do you have any idea what a pain in the ass it is to get rid of gold? |

Update: Lander location found from the orbitar but still no response from the lander with any signals.
But as scientist says 90% success of this project can be achieved with orbitar itself.
Landing on other planets and moons is *hard*. |

Seems to be a little bit of a change in sentiment around recently. Bullish charts & graphs, people here are making bullish price predictions.
Anybody think we might start to significantly climb as 2019 draws to an end?
Well I haven't seen pages and pages of trains on fire and happy spacemen so I'm not sure if the time is right yet..... |

Alas, I am cursed with 'Hat Abandonment'. I'm so 'dirty'.  You're just whoring yourself out for dust Searing. Put on a hat. :-) |

He's alive. I'm not comfortable giving the details of his personal life, though, so I'll have to just leave it at that.
He did say he'd make a forum post soon... I'll remind him again.
Glad to hear he's alive. Good person. |

I hate to say point it elsehwere, since it was good here for a very long time. But it might be time.
His last post was ~18 months ago, his last time online was ~ 9 months ago.
It's accepting shares but the back end is dead so it's just a black hole for mining at this point.
Agreed. Point it at p2pool or something, right now whatever is mining there is just wasting energy and that's plain sad. I liked Eligius, it was my first pool, but if nothing else is going to happen it's really time to call it quits. And hey if WK fixes it, just point it back. |

Hope they are good at acting surprised  Note: The "fake" bars are real gold, however they have fake stamps for provenance. So the gold people have the equal of monero. :-) |

Every once in awhile I like to look at old bitcoin purchases.....
In March 2014 I bought a Wii U for 1btc.
I'm looking at it now. See how stupid I was?

Kinda. They don't get rubbed away, but they do die and are replaced. However Collagen is not a living thing per se, so like tatoo dye it sticks around. |

cells are dying and being replaced all the time
https://www.livescience.com/33179-does-human-body-replace-cells-seven-years.htmlNote: the cells in the brain don't get replaced when they die. [/quote] Pretty much: The human body is a ship of Theseus in real time. It doesn't replace all at once of course, but at what point does the ship stop being the ship? * SOT is a thought experiment. In a nutshell you have a ship that fought in a famed battle. So everyone decides to preserve the ship. Over the next couple of hundred years boards are replaced due to wear/rot/whatever. Eventually all boards are replaced. At what point did it cease being the Ship of Theseus? |

The fuck am I reading, is this some knock off star trek black mirror shit? This goofey shit deserves a merit.
If I'm really going to freeze my head I want to have wealth in the future that's not dependent on crap like banks. Thus I'll memorize a seed word for a wallet, and a separate one for a 10btc prize to the person who revives me. If the world is as cool as I want it to be, in a thousand years entire bitcoins will be so rare that people will spend the time and money to revive me for that 10btc of virgin corn. Thus the deal. If not then I really don't want to live there. If they're crap-sack enough to steal my bitcoins despite the offer of a deal I really don't want to live there, so dying is fine. If they upload my brain to a simulator to get my keys then as long as the simulator is cool I'm ok with that. If it's a crap-sack simulator then I will do my best to hack it and turn it into something a lot more fun. Hm.... |

so 10,000 years from now some dude drops your brain into a MemoSeed Blitztractokator (tm) machine. which basically is a blender with some chemicals and nano tech tossed in. he blends your brain to a fine puree, the tech absorbs the memories, and stores them so AI can look for seed phrases. your brain goes to the compost pile. profit?
Sure. The trick is how it's stored in my brain, and for that you really need to boot the whole thing up. And hell, if it doesn't work it's not like I'm going to do better just dying. I like to give people incentive. And if it's that much of a crap-sack universe that they won't honor a deal then I really don't want to be there. (Plus if they're uploading my brain to a simulation you can bet your ass that my security memories will try to buffer overflow their system and take over. Given how lazy people are with security this is not a big problem :-) |

But it takes the fun out of it when you do it like that. People are also addicted to the adrenaline. (You know doing non ethical stuff in secret with the fears of getting caught) There is, as they say, that. *btw I am single. I am free to do these stuff. Don't make it personal. I am talking in general. These stuff happen every day. Don't tell me every marriage in the world is honest. Most of them isn't.
Oh sure. And since we change our entire body molecular structure every 5 years it's pretty insane to assume the person you have now is the same one as 10 years ago. Things change. (Yes, this is why people freeze just their heads. Who gives a damn about the body, it's going to be replaced in 5 years anyway. Fuck it) |

Not saying it is not fun, just saying it gets boring quickly. Especially if it is always with the same person. Why do you think people cheat each other? They do it even when they love each other on a personal level.
It is just our instincts. We are two legged dogs. We want to fuck everything that moves.
Simple solution: Negotiate an open relationship. Then you can fuck all sorts of people and you don't have to go to Barcelona because your wife does. She can go with a boyfriend and you can do the Colorado mountains with your woman. All works out. |

Immortality, Cryogenics and UBI: How The Crypto Rich Influence ScienceThe rise of cryptocurrency is changing the philanthropic world by causing the redistribution of wealth from old money to visionary innovators and early tech adopters. The new crypto rich invest their donations by supporting scientific research in groundbreaking fields that may one day enable humanity to cure aging, reverse death and completely change the relationship between work and income. https://news.bitcoin.com/immortality-cryogenics-and-ubi-how-the-crypto-rich-influence-science/Don't spend everything on girls and lambos, also keep some BTC for this.  I'm kicking this one around but man Alcor and others have a bit of a professionality problem to overcome. As I said, if I'm frozen like this I want "This person has the passphrase for 20 bitcoins memorized. Revive me, You get half" etched on my container. If the world comes where that is an incentive to revive me then I *really* want to live there. |

 This picture is more suitable for alts IMHO. Right Lightfoot?  Pretty much. Alts have been having their asses kicked as of late. :-) |

In the meantime it's looking like a good time to drop gold you hold and not bitcoins.
Cool time to be alive.

The list of reasons to hold bitcoin keeps growing:
Imagine five years ago if in one solitary week the president of the United States of America - Referred to himself as 'the chosen one' 'Hereby' ordered all American companies to leave China just like that. Attempted to buy another country and called the PM of its custodian 'nasty' and cancelled his visit when they said they weren't too keen. Truly, we are living in v strange times. I do wonder what happened to the "Oath Takers", those guys who would do anything to protect the constitution against an overreaching President. Weird. |
