You can choose gay frogs guy or you can choose NASA.

Quote
Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals1 show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities.

If you trust gay frogs guy over NASA, then I can’t help you.  

Since when is scientific truth decided by majority vote?
The day IPCC get one of their endless predictions right I will consider contemplating their hypothesis.

Watching the silver price slowly fall back to $6 over the next decade will be even worse.

From a TA point of view, $10 looks like a very strong support and potential bounce. But, r0ach is always talking about costs of production and oil as the main factor. Oil price is gonna dump really hard over the next couple of decades. As much as electrical cars increase their market share the more affected will be the demand of oil. Main demand right now is coming from cars all over the world. Another interesting side effect is that long distance flights will become even cheaper.

I'm sorry.

Where do you think all this electricity is going to come from?

While there will certainly be plenty of volatility in the energy sector, even "dumps", broadly speaking oil will never, ever, be cheaper in real terms.

Even serious industry paid annalists acknowledge that we are past peak EROI, and there is simply no replacement for the energy density of fossil fuels.

I never would come to the 100k party under my alias in this forum, my opsec was crushed long ago. Like said, I don't care if this user is connected with my real life persona, doesn't change a thing.

Oh and good luck getting my name from any records, you'd have to hack the hospital records I was in, it was never in any news or made public.

Don't worry, I'd never look for your name or anything. No point for me to do that, as I'd never cause any harm to anyone. I just mentioned it for all of us readers here, to be careful when we write about ourselves.

A guy in Turkey published in Facebook that he had 400 BTC. IIRC, he was kidnapped, tortured, and his 400 BTC stolen.

I have sometimes researched the IRL identities of a few people here. Just for the sake of it. I guess all the clearly identifiable ones already know they are somewhat exposed. And I don't remember anything about it.

But how do you know it's the same person. If I wanted to hide my real persona, I would just use somebody else's user name and avatar and send you on a wild goose chase.

Ok given the objections to the USA for the $100k party, and opsec issues with going to a third world country, I’m calling for us to party in Belgium.  Home of the GooseBull.  Frites, biere et Bitcoin. 

I second that.

toxoplazmosis
A fascinating thing. But from my understanding, in rodents it makes them attracted to cat urine. It's humans that it makes aggressive.

And also, that's a chipmunk, they are not affected by toxoplasmosis.

Getting too old for electronic diffs, too old for lightning browser plugins, too old for millions wasted on disposable toys that go jolly fast and obliterate muh environment, too old for one weird company's blockchain shoved down at me from space.
There's a fucking war on.
These fuckers should all rally round designing and producing the only things that matter: chips free from govt control, miners that go jolly fast and obliterate only the tip of muh environment, software that is not as bloated, shonky and illegible as JJG's 'Memoirs and Musings: My Bookywook (volumes 1 thru 34)(part I)' and then and only after that, vehicles that are useful for the coming world with no roads and no electricity, a wealth of fallout, guns, bandits and finally, vast open spaces free at last from the the poor, the stupid, the hungry.

Well, at least the poor, the stupid and the hungry seems to be disappearing, it's of course the same people.
They are hungry because they are poor and they are poor because they are stupid. Stupid people won't get well paid jobs, if they get any at all.
I read somewhere that the increasing average IQ in the world, the Flynn effect, is not because we are all getting a little smarter for every generation, nor is it because we are getting more of the really smart people. It's actually because we are getting fewer and fewer dumb people in the world for every generation.
To put it bluntly, the losers aren't finding any mates, and thus do not procreate, thereby not spreading their stupid genes to a new generation.

I think some people are just waiting to see what the market is going to do before buying.  They will eventually decide it is not going down any more and then jump in and another rally will begin.  Or someone will dump and they will jump in and then keep the price at about the level it is at now.  I think the fact that we have seen a few dumps already without affecting the price too drastically is really bullish and shows there is some great support

Traditionally bitcoin dumps in Q1.
So personally I'm expecting that last v shaped super dump to come in January or February, and then we will finally be done with this shitshow. A couple of slow but accelerating years are coming.

Hmm not sure about that. They run 24/7 so must have some automatic fuelling system. Don’t know how you would do that reliably with coke.  That said I have never owned one so have no real idea.

According to what I read they were so efficient that  they ran 24 h on one "tank" of coke, that was the selling point. But I never used one myself, my grandparents had a gas stove, and we always had a electric stove, so, no personal experience.

EDIT: according to wikipedia they ran on "slow burning coal" whatever that is.

In other Christmas traditions, Mrs V8s' Aga went out sometime in the night. Certain dogs were complaining of the chill by 5am. It restarted easily enough for once, but is useless for anything till tomorrow really.
We do have a spare gas cooker in the back kitchen, but she uses all that for the Christmas meals on wheels for the villages, while I attend to our own lunch in her kitchen and entertain anyone staying plus the drivers who ferry the meals around.
Right, so lots of early morning rallying around later, heaters have been borrowed and showers had in friends' bathrooms.
Can see our own lunch not being ready till 5 or so, which is fine. All very Spanish hours.
Every year we promise ourselves to sort the plumbing, heating and cooking arrangements out in this house, but it would be a huge upheaval and a total waste of filthy fiat moneys, which would be far better spent on certain proper, sound, valuable, store of wealth type things.

Peasant that I am, I had to google Aga.

Now there is another thing I want damn you.

And you can if you want to, they are still made. Aga (short for Aktiebolaget GasAccumulator)is the name of the company that invented them, they used to be huge in Europe. Just google Aga cooker.

It sounds like the oil fired AGAs would be a bit environmentally unfriendly.  They are burning heater oil 24/7. That stuff must be GHG intensive.  

I guess they are outdated now, but when they where invented in 1929 they saved huge amounts of coal compared to what was on the market then.

EDIT: I think they are running on coke, not coal.

Never heard of "flash ball" before, a friend of mine directed me to this video of a store owner fighting of marauders during the yellow west protests in Paris.
Interesting.

In many countries there is a special movie that people watch around new years, in Sweden it's the 1982 version of Ivanhoe on new years day.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivanhoe_(1982_film)

I just learned that in Russia it's the 1976 Soviet movie "The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!" (Russian: Иpoния cyдьбы, или C лёгким пapoм!)
I would like to watch that movie, but unfortunately I don't speak Russian. Does anybody know where I can stream or download that movie with Swedish or English subtitles?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Irony_of_Fate

And also, Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year To You All!


EDIT: Links

They have it on Dailymotion with English subs.  Part 1 is here:  https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1urcgk

Thanks a lot!
I did finally find a live torrent, but streaming is so much better, I will be watching it when I get home tomorrow evening after opening my Christmas presents, on the new bedroom TV that I already know that tomten (Santa) will bring me.

I don't need privacy when shopping for groceries,

oh but you might

I can imagine any number of scenarios where a hostile lawyer being able to enter one's historical receipts for beer might be unwelcome.
I don't see it. And not only because the transaction details on the bank account only show the lump sum paid for groceries with no details regarding individual items.

Divorce, car accident, health insurance, professional malfeasance...the list goes on.  And if you don't think your shopping list ends up in a database I think you are delusional.

I think a little of each is the best approach. If you go totally under the radar that in it self will arise suspicion, pay the things that doesn't matter with plastic and the things you want to keep under the radar with cash or crypto.

Is it because you have the Q lined with noodles?

"Noodles all around your ass." I believe it's an idiom for "a shameless amount of luck".


Noodle in ass= French luck, confirmed.

Ok, I misunderstood. I pick 3475 unless already taken. Is there a list? I can't read 7 pages right now.

You should know that if the price ever breaks 3475 from here onwards you lose, that's an awfully low pick, PoolMinor got burned on his 3390$ choice. I don't judge you for being bearish, but there's at least a threshold..

3390    PoolMinor Sad
3475    Arriemoller


from NOW price put on the list is irreversible

only icygreen still have to put a valid price.... can't put in something that wasn't live from the start

LIST UPDATE

have to say every valid pick when added is just on the list...

so if it isn't going up anymore then he's the lucky one, in this case i must say i hope all the low guesses to get rekt Roll Eyes

I always lose these games anyway, so I might just as well go out on a limb.
Thanks for your games Mic, they brighten up the winter darkness.

2500 USD please, and Zalig Kerstfeest en Gelukkig nieuw jaar!

Read the rules. The highest price form topic start to 17 days after BAKKT launch (or Dec 31st 2019 if it doesn't launch), not the price on that exact date.

So you already lost. Pick something over $3450 Wink

Ok, I misunderstood. I pick 3475 unless already taken. Is there a list? I can't read 7 pages right now.
