Punchline fail.  I guess it doesn't really need it, we all know that's the nutjob from "Ancient Aliens", but still... just seems flat without it. Really? This has been repeated so much that i assumed just showing his face already implied the punchline... |

Hey crypto, what's wrong with the "He's a psycho" theory? Obviously that's much more unbelievable than a complex conspiracy theory involving hundreds of people that would unravel with just one weak link. The way its been told is WAY more unbelievable than cops and the media making shit up. That's probably why there are thousands if not millions of people who don't buy it. Unravel with one weak link? I don't think so. There already are weak links like the doctored evidence picture of the gas mask (look that one up). The reason it won't unravel is that most of you will continue to believe the lie even when evidence to the contrary is right in your face. All it would take is on whistle blower to blow the whole thing wide open. But it won't happen, because there is no conspiracy. Your burden of proof is so low and your logic so crazy that it scares me. There were some inconsistencies in some statements = the government did it! People being interviewed weren't weeping like in the movies = they're actors! I have a friend like you on Facebook - they post all manner of crazy things they have learned from the same websites (Info Wars etc.). What really annoys me is that amongst all the rubbish they post, there are a couple of things that, yeah, people should be up in arms about. But you turn people off with your unfounded and crazy theories. You help the government and powers that be get away with things that are actually happening - they love you to be wasting your energy to things like this when there is REAL corruption going on. It would actually make sense if it turns out that lots of the conspiracy nuts are really disinformation agents of the government (or of some other powerful entity or group) that intentionally mix valid and crackpot theories together and spread tons of completly bogus theories in order to make it harder for real whistleblowers to be taken seriously... |

That is one of the issues with events conspiracy theories tend to revolve around; it is usually stuff so absurd that "normal" people have a hard time believing it could be true, regardless of actual facts. Another thing is that often the alleged strings are arranged in such a way that it is plausible that even if it was real it would still look like it isn't for most people.

Perhaps it would've been better if they didn't mix things like that, so some messages wouldn't be contaminated by the association with less credible messages?
Less credible for *you*. I'm fine with it. Good point, there is always someone open enough to accept a wide variety of conspiracy theories; and obviously what is crackpot and what is proven fact, depends on who you're asking; even though real truth is absolute, acceptance and recognition of said truth is subjective. |

...  I can change the width of my nose by about the same amount just by doing those two facial expressions; and notice both pictures show someone slightly strabic. |

He was wearing SWAT type gear, they wouldn't let him where that inside.
Do you accept this?
He used a fire exit to go get his gear after going inside the theater as a normal person. Orange hair and normal person just doesn't compute lol I've seen way crazier hair on many people; in modern times strong hair colors aren't exactly rare. but... but... it doesn't match his skin tone!  I was talking about artificially colored hair. |

I hope to still be around when medicine figures out how to keep prolonging my life indefinetly so i can eventually live in a society with so much technological and cultural advancements that the need for having a "job" will cease to exist; people will not have jobs, they'll have hobbies, and even people that only do things that no one else would pay for would still be able to live in the highest standards of living without taking anything away from anyone. So, my answer to the question posed here would be the government should assist the wellbeing of everyone as much as we (the society) can afford; but obviously, carefully weighting the benefits in short, medium and long terms, no point in living like a king for a day if that will make you rot dead the next day.

Ok, the -server command itself is working, but i need to use bitcoind for the backupwallet command, i'm pretty sure in previous versions i could use the main executable for all the commands...

Single dash? Isn't that supposed to be only for single letter commands? And isn't it /server? It was working with the slash before the update...
|

(I'm using WinXP if that matters)
I need to start Bitcoin with the /server commandline option so the batch file i created to do scheduled backups of my wallet can issue the backup command in order to safely obtain a copy of the wallet (don't wanna risk it trying to copy the original while it is being written to and ending up with a corrupt backup)
(edited to fix the command line, i am using the slash, i just got mixed up while writing the post originally)

Ok, to satisfy your curiosity here is the support/resistance chart with price on a log scale.  Would it look less or more distorted if the vertical axis was log too? |

2016 blocks = 100800 BTC. At the start of a new difficulty, a dedicated agency like the NSA could probably mine 100,000 BTC in a day. Keeping the same hashrate they could mine another 100,000 in four days at the new difficulty they set. If you doubt this, remember the NSA has their own chip fab...they might have even tested their tech, search for " mystery miner"... Looks like mystery miner only mined a max of 500 GH:  .. which is now less than 5% of the global hashrate of 10 TH. I'm guessing this is someone at Pixar or some other render farm. To mine an entire difficulty adjustment in a day would take 14 times the current network speed of, or 140 TH, which is 280 times the mystery miner's peak hashrate. We're safe from this mystery miner... Is there any reason to be confident that was MM's full power and not just a small test to see if the system worked? Or that even if it was his full power at the time he hasn't invested in more hardware? |

Forums need a Multi-Quote button.
If you have Quick Reply enabled (in your settings), you can click "Quote" in multiple posts and they will all go into the Quick Reply box. Works the same in the full reply/edit mode, except the previous replies show bellow and in reverse order (if you're using the forum defaults, but i think you can set it to order replies differently if you wanna) |

Why do I keep clicking this thread?
Is there an "ignore thread" button somewhere?
Unfortunately with SMF, once you participate in a thread, it will always show up when you click on "new replies to your posts". If you click on the "notify" link, and you confirm you wanna unwatch the topic, does that remove it from the new replies to threads you're participating list? What if you reply but set it to not notify you of replies (in the Additional Options section) ? |

Which miner currently would be recommended for a machine with core i7 running WinXP 32bits? (don't wanna compile it myself, never had much success compiling complex things out of the 'net)
