Hm well there is always remote signing on an air gaped computer. I don't think intel's security flaws could compromise that method of doing things in any way. Not without a stuxnet level of sophistication attack. Maybe theoretically possible but not even close to practically possible. https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/windows/armory/

Dude, we are getting to the point where hardware wallets are not optional. Either buy a hardware wallet and play the bitcoin game or sell your bitcoin and go put your money in wells fargo. Pick one IMO.

I like my trezor but the guys over at coinkite https://coldcardwallet.com/ claim their product will be better due to using secure hardware.

Someday when it comes time to terraform our first planet we can just build lots of cars with no catalytic converters and drive them around on the surface.

You guys should ressurect this thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=374873.4300 it was a hoot. 200+ pages long too.

The neo-liberals aren't a secret organization... You can order a subscription to foreign affairs from magazines.com for chirst sake. https://www.magazines.com/foreign-affairs-magazine.html

It is known that there is a group of elites out there who have a vision for the world that involves massive depopulation. They are not all powerful or anything like some Illuminati myths would have you believe. They are one faction out of maybe four major power factions on the planet. Their leaders are mostly Jewish intellectuals and can be thought of loosely as the neo-liberal establishment. It is reasonably safe to assume that at least some within that clique would be willing to accomplish the depopulation they desire through cataclysm if necessary.

Haha 20 mega sounds awesome.

I really feel like the whole mBTC and uBTC thing is wrongheaded. We shouldn't be thinking about it as fractions of BTC. We should be thinking in terms of satoshis and building up. Like bytes in computing vs the metric standard. Kilosatoshi (kSat), Megasatoshi (mSat), and Gigasatoshi (gSat), ect... It's so much more natural to think in terms of multiples than fractions. Plus we are much more the spiritual successor of the computing standards than the metric standard.

If bitcoin ever becomes so capitalized that 1 satoshi is like a dollar, well then we just use it like we do currencies now. 0.01 satoshis would feel be pretty natural as a penny. And really if we get to this point again where things start costing 0.00001 satoshis, well that is a problem I can live with.

1 kSat soon to hit 0.1 USD! Anyone think we can see kSat USD parity this year?

Oh ok. Yea, I think you were a little too coherent.

You do realize who ever comes next will probably be worse, right? Not saying trump is an angel or anything but it will probably be someone sort of socialist or communist next time.

The way I look at it is it sort of depends what's going on. If there is vigorous and lively on topic discussion happening than don't interrupt it. If it's a slow day an no one is talking about anything anyway, why the heck not.

His post could be good investment advice because it contained many different words and several parts of speech. It was similar to many other posts of which some were longer and others were shorter, thus defining itself as indispensable.

Haha. Have you ever seen this? Actually Ironic

No. This is totally false. Once the boats get to a certain size I would definitely stop thinking about bigger boats and start thinking about spacecraft.

Maybe it's just the sort of talk that we need in order to help get out of this bear rut?

That was great though. Lols were had.

Well the stuff about dash not being anonymous isn't animosity, that's just facts. But I guess there was a little bit of animosity with the bit near the end where I was imagining that potential beautiful irony.

The animosity comes from the fact that they are a complete and total scam/fraud yet still their market cap is around about the same as our legitimate project. That's frustrating you know. Watching that day in and day out.  It just wears on you. It can make one a little bit bitter.

Incidentally, watching dash day in and day out for years now, I really feel like I empathize with car company executives. That must be what it's like to be an executive at Ford watching Tesla except 100 times worse. Here ford is making tons of really great products at really competitive prices and they are having to cut product lines to stay in business. While Tesla never needs to make a profit, hardly even makes any cars, relies on welfare and their marketcap is something like 50 times greater than fords. But Tesla doesn't need products when it has better marketing! Not unlike our friend dash. Can you imagine. When ever you think we have it bad. Imagine what it must be like to be a auto manufacturer exec.

There are definitely strong arguments to be made for cats. No doubt. Also if you ever take anyone out who has sea sickness they will be so much happier. And all your stuff wont be sloshing around below deck. And you can actually cook without hurting yourself. And they typically move a bit quicker since they have a shallower draft. My only problem is by the time they actually get up to decent quality and out of that "ikea furniture" range they are devastatingly expensive.

But you know I'm just gathering all of this from the best piecemeal research I can accomplish on the internet. I have never had the chance to get out there and look at these things in person. Hoping to be able to do that soon.

That doesn't look like something I could afford. I spend my time looking at boats I can afford That's for like racing or something right? I have a family to lug around too.

The cat maybe more practical for me. Ill take a look at all of them though. The Corsair C37 is pretty crazy looking.

*edit* Oh the Lucia is just the 40 foot Fountaine Pajot. Yea I've looked at that one. As with seemingly all the cats the interior looks so chincy. Like its built out of ikea furniture.

"Yacht Observer - Yacht affordability, tracking & discussion"?

Wouldn't that be funny. If dash got banned for it's marketing claims that it's anonymous even though it Isn't. I wonder if they would try have their cake and eat it too by explaining to Japanese authorities how it isn't anonymous but telling everyone else to just ignore that. That would be the worst of both worlds for them, banned for being anonymous while not being anonymous enough to protect it's users from said ban. Maybe monero could survive being banned for being anonymous because it actually is, but all the dash users would just be tracked down on the blockchain for using an "anonymous currency".
