Just realized why you all want a Lamborghini.
Ferrari is owned by Fiat
Nice meme I didn't get it. What the heck is wrong with having a Ferrari and being a bitcoiner. Are you joking with Fiat as in fiat money? Explain I'm curious I'm sure the joke was Fiat as in 'fiat currency'. But even if it wasn't, heck I'd own a Fiat 500 Abarth in a hot minute. Sweet lil' cars. I assumed the joke to be 'fiat currency' as well. Not aware of any meme level animosity towards Fiat (the company). |

In a bear market every news is bad news.
In a bull market every news is good news.
Just doesn't make sense.
Meanwhile in the stock market: Company posts a quarterly loss, stock pumps +10%. Company beats on earnings across the board, stock crashes -10%. Just doesn't make sense. People are, on average, mentally impaired. They just buy/follow whatever is the flavour of the <insert current time>. Thanks to the very same people it's quite easy to become filthy rich even without finding something like Bitcorn early though. They're also quite entertaining to watch from time to time. |

It would've been nice to be over $10k by now.
Yeah, was kinda hoping we'd be closer to $10k by today than $9k, but that's the 'corn for ya. It sways whichever way it wants. Also, Bill Gates has revealed himself as a lazy idiot, with respect to speaking about shorting Bitcoin if he could, and creating FUD. Nice guy. Just imagine if people were capable of simply admitting that they haven't done any research about a given topic. Pretty sure we'd run out of serious problems very quickly. |

Something that happens only once in a blue moon sighted one minute back:  24-hour change = 0.00% is bitcoin dead? Ofcourse it is, it has died 288 times to be exact  That number is merely an estimate for the lower bound. Also, wtf did I miss? Since when are the people = the government? I get that there's the argument that people get the government that they deserve (which is a pretty weak one), but ultimately governments never had anything to do with "the people" beyond pacifying them into submission with varying methods. |

EDIT: Holy crap. I just recognized I've attained Legendary status. I spend waaaay too much time here...  bob...you been legendary since I came back, like, a year ago And I thought my memory was fucked for a moment. |

So, we are approaching 10k... where are the rockets, trains, that kind of stuff?
I only see people talking about Roger's Cash. Do Roger deserves so much attention?
I'm waiting for a 100k bottom to get excited. Until then not much is going to change. Alternatively I'd also be happy with scaling being resolved regardless of the BTC price. |

 +4 WOsMerits The dank memes are dead now. Let the light of the force flow thru you *in yoda voice*  Any may the bitcoin price rise. BTW, the kid was right who sat with Mcafee last night:  Translation: 'Buy at the dip!' Reads サトシ中本 or Satoshi Nakamoto. Is McAfee into smuggling kids now or why was that little dude at their dinner? everyone be enjoying their 4/20 high? ... never fails to deliver, mmm but maybe a bad trip for the shorts but oh well.
My sense of time is so bad that I've completely missed it. Guess I'll make up today. No chance  Lmao, look at that bear. Thinks he's a fox. Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds and mine the shit out of them. Wonder what scifi is going to be like in a hundred or a thousand years. Playing gods? Or just restarting life from scratch because everything else is too normal? |

Isn't this proof enough that we're still beginning & getting warmed up for the real boom?  Yeah well, the time scale is going to be vastly different this time around though. Things just spin much faster than they used to. |

Waiting for blocklancer tokens to become $300 per token. How do you think we can make that possible?
We can't. Not for 10+++ years. The largest portals right now only have a yearly revenue of about 10 Billion and thus a net profit of 300 Million USD, or ~2 USD per LNC, probably closer to 20ish USD given expected returns. While the market is expected to grow rapidly, $300 isn't going to happen for a very long time, and even then Blocklancer would have to be a globally dominant force. Not impossible, but not extremely likely, certainly not easy and definitely not happening over night. the team's comments are in need in this kind of stuation, the blocklancer price has not got a good point in the exchange, the team has to really take care of this and I believe it can all be possible This has nothing to do with the team or with the project in general. Just about every ICO gets dumped into the ground due to low volume on initial exchanges and large players shaking out the clueless gamblers. |

Hottest day of the year so far in the UK, it’s 77 degrees Fahrenheit. About time we reached T Shirt weather. Hopefully the change in weatger coincides with a change in market sentiment & we start a climb back up in Q2 - Q3 of 2018.
I’m feeling $12,000 by the end of May, who’s with me?
Just off the top of my head, that would equate to 115 F in May... are you suicidal? I just left my house for the first time in just under two weeks. And I didn't go out in a t-shirt because I didn't expect it to be 80.6 Fahrenheit. Needless to say, I'm going to stay shut-in until the weather gets fixed if I can help it. Need to be more careful not to sleep through deliveries for the next few months. |

I voted May 31st for the 10k Euro game. Picked that on a whim though. Last time I overshot, this time I'll undershoot. |

Global warming? Global warming!
Did you know that spiders don't breathe? They don't have lungs. Instead oxygen simply seeps into holes in their bodies. And as we all know, the atmosphere was denser in older times - denser atmosphere, more co2, more oxygen, bigger bugs. Also dinosaurs. There were dragonflies so big they could have eaten humans, if we had existed back then.
co2 is not a pollutant. On the contrary, it is plant food. Plants take in co2 from the atmosphere and excrete o2, oxygen, the thing we need to live. You may have heard of it. It is the very foundation of the entire food chain.
More co2 means more plants means more oxygen means more animals means more life. It is a Good Thing. In addition, warmer weather is better than colder weather. More people freeze to death than die from heat. So go on, burn some oil. Do your part to improve the world.
I like the "waste energy" lifestyle, but only so that governments will get forced by the loud plebs to dump money into researching abundant energy. Need more incomprehensible future tech today. Hate the warm weather though, fortunately ACs are a thing. Take a trip to Denmark in the winter. Learn to love heat. I have spent two months southwards just to not be cold this year. Might make it a habit. I lived in Thailand for around a year, also spent some time in the Middle East. I can deal with the heat, but if I given a choice I'd go with cold weather over hot weather every time. It's just more convenient to have the option of putting on more clothes to negate the effects of weather, which is impossible in extreme heat while outside. Ideally I'd prefer something around 16 to 20 Celsius though. |

U.S. treasury yield curve has flattened to lowest spread in a decade. On track to invert within 6 months. Usually market crash and recession follow 12 months after that.
Will history repeat?
What do you all think that Bitcoin will do in such an event? Epic rise or epic crash?
Hopefully epic rise. With predictable oscillations between equity and crypto. |

I only care about bitcoin everything else seems insignificant
Pretty much, sitting here day after day waiting for 2021 ish when my stash will make me rich. Running two companies is boring & unfulfilling. I want to travel, fuck hookers & snort copious amounts of cocaine. I highly doubt you will find that very fulfilling for very long. The travel part might work, accompanied with a hobby that requires constant striving (e.g. learning any arbitrary skill or set of skills and pushing it to its limits). The latter part sounds pretty boring. I have this idea about taking up archery at some point. Probably won't, but it's as good a hobby as any. It's fun, can recommend. Who cares if it’s legal or not?
I can’t imagine a life without social drug use.
Any sane person would care about legality when it comes to the Middle East or some parts of Asia. Their drug laws are completely and utterly insane and only a complete moron would play with that kind of fire. In Thailand people kept trying to sell drugs to me. I don't do drugs so there was no temptation, but even if I did I would stay the fuck away from that knowing how seriously local authorities take it. Never be underinformed, about anything. Even if it was safe to use drugs in Thailand I wouldn't want to take anything from some random person that offered them to me on the streets. At some point safety just comes first. Who cares if it’s legal or not?

What do you get for smoking a reefer over there? In Japan around 5 years in prison were the norm if I recall correctly. Not sure if Thailand would be more or less strict. Funny sidenote, psilocybe mushrooms were legally available all over the place in Japan until around 2006. They were outlawed because people were unable to clearly label them and to tell them apart from your everyday edible mushroom. |

Racial differences, the basic cliffnotes version:
Whities are pretty smart. We have good IQ.
Hispanics have lower IQ than whities.
Black americans lower.
African africans even lower on account of not being contaminated with white blood.
Certain asian countries have higher IQ than uses, especially china and japan.
Jews have the highest IQ of all.
IQ correlates with lifetime earning potential. That is, jews own a highly disproportionate amount of all the wealth in the world. Blacks will always be poor.
In addition different races are better at certain things than others. For example, the fastest olympic runners are mostly black. Comes from running from lions and after gazelles. Chinks are smarter than whites, but less creative. And asians have faster reflexes than the rest of us.
There is no controversy over any of this among professionals, it's all pure biology. There are evolutionary explanations for all of it and it can all be measured. And yet it is called racist and if I had a normal people job this post could get me fired. If I was german or british I could be jailed for it.
I am not sure if you are right or not... but... I think it is not very smart to SAY all that... more so if you don't refer to the scientific studies where all that is proved beyond any possible doubt. Yes, in some countries it could even be considered racist speech. Not that I fucking care, but I don't know the need of doing it. Why would I spend literal days getting all that together when not one of you will spend weeks and months reading and understanding it? This is the internet, any information can be found for those who wish to find it. Those who are interested will study the topic on their own, and the mental children who can't tolerate reality will carry on with their tantrums regardless. When you make blanket "cliff notes" statements like that (and this has nothing to do with whether I may agree with them or not...hell.. they may indeed have some truth to them for all I phucking know) but you need citation links to back them up, and I'm sure you know that. Then again this is just a no holds barred random internet thread (lately anyway) complete with random delusional posters, so ateotd maybe it doesn't phucking matter anyway... This goes to both sides though. If you're going to complain against the contents of one's argument due to a lack of citations you should be providing a counter argument with relevant citations yourself. Can't expect things out of others that you won't provide yourself. I personally lean into the camp of "listen to anyone willing to talk" as long as they don't become (physically) hostile or start repeating themselves. And even then I try to make sure that they're not putting nuance that I'm just missing and thus dismissing as repetitive. |

super lie, smokes and fumes aren't healty... otherwise I agree... you almost have to replace the full blood with raw thc to get death... and even, I bet that water in the blood will kill faster than thc . Vaporizing marijuanas is the way to go. No cancerous byproducts are released due to combustion. In theory. I wonder how much research has gone into checking out all the folks that pretty much chain smoked into high age. I don't enjoy smoking (tobacco) in general, especially not in large quantities. But some people seem to deal just fine with it. I've been wondering to what extent internal well-being correlated with longevity regardless of healthy lifestyle choices. Japanese smoke like crazy too and they're one of the longest living demographics in the world. Wish science was as rigorous and inquisive as it should be. If I ever get filthy rich (billions kind of rich) I'll look into funding all kinds of research that corporate shills wouldn't normally advocate for (cause omgerdmuhprofitz). |

Pot on the other hand is harmless. I ate two bars of chocolate with a friend once (one each). One bar had 16 segments of which one segment was enough to floor a casual smoker. Needless to say, we were pretty much immobilized and just spent the following ~12h+ listening to music and watching Youtube. Would definitely repeat.
Same here. I ate a whole bag of pot popcorn. I was gone for a solid 24h. After, no hangover or anything bad. Not a fan of smoking so I stick with edibles. 100% safe stuff. I ate 4 mushrooms at the fullmoon parzty, in koh phangan, and came out of it allright. I think, but i don´t know inb4 you're still at the fullmoon party.  |

Edibles aren't obtainable here, unless I make them myself which I am too lazy to for non-special occasions. And smoking (hand rolled) has this social ritual kind of feeling to it that I quite enjoy. But probably stick to edibles for the most part if I lived in the US though. Especially with the ridiculous amounts of variety available these days. |
