Hm, using 2 of each char per line seems to make it work here though:

Not sure what exactly is the issue with my first attempt here...

All my reader see on that is a 1d barcode that reads "11116660"
I tried using different characters and then i could get your address:

edit: the aspect ratio seems to be an issue though; i can only get it to read if i put the camera at an angle so that the whole thing looks more squarish on the screen
edit2: or perhaps the issue is the separation between the lines; i tried with a font that got the blocks touching and it reads easily...

The thing is, it will eventually go up again. And sometimes things move quite fast with Bitcoin. Only wait to buy if you're confident you will manage to get the purchase done before it rises back past the current price.

Even if the rumor was true (i don't think they are), it shouldn't affect Bitcoin's long term value.
Regarding the U.S., news from that side have been relatively positive. Not as good as if they had just let it be, but they seem to indicate they are willing to let people use it, as long as they pay taxes on it.

Last i heard, it was because some unfounded rumors about China banning Bitcoin; people that don't understand Bitcoin's long term potential panicked.

If you pay a too low fee, your transaction might take longer to be processed. But even fee-less transactions have been processed (though there have been a few rare cases where it took a few days until a charitable miner managed to mine a block with it).

The only way to get "work" from heat, is to transfer it from something to something else; if everything inside the house is at an equilibrium you can't extract work from heat, unless you let the heat leave the house (or otherwise lower the average temperature of the whole house). The only purpose insulation could have would be to limit where you're loosing heat.
Limit but not stop. All the joules of energy from the heat difference will transfer eventually, there's no such thing as a perfect insulator and there's a distinct barrier between the hot and cold areas so energy can be recovered between the two sides as it inevitably passes through. But to get more energy, you need to let more heat out; you would need a hole in the insulation essentially. If you make it harder for the heat to go out, you'll be capturing less energy. It's sorta analog to placing a valve before your waterwheel; if you hold the water back the wheel won't be spinning as fast. |

You can't have it both ways, either it is hard for the heat to leave the house, or it is easy. The more you keep the heat inside, the less energy you can get from it going outside and vice-versa.
As far as I know that's the point of insulation  A house would need over a meter of insulation to stay warm just from body heat at 0 deg C outdoor. Heat will always find its way out so if its going to transfer anyway then its worth trying to recover and re-use as much as possible, that's what sterling engines do but 'sterling' is misleading as it only describes a particular type of heat recovery system. Heat recovery is simple enough but it doesn't get used enough, it's used in some areas like high efficiency power plants but will get more common as energy prices go up. The only way to get "work" from heat, is to transfer it from something to something else; if everything inside the house is at an equilibrium you can't extract work from heat, unless you let the heat leave the house (or otherwise lower the average temperature of the whole house). The only purpose insulation could have would be to limit where you're loosing heat. |

I'd put bit furys into her ass hole then turn them on. Then stuff her mouth with more.
Holy shit dude! LOL You want to put ASIC chips up her ass and in her mouth and power them up. That takes BDSM to a whole new level. This is still in main discussion? Are the mods on vacation or what? rofl Some people are being rude about it; but they are still talking about the girl mentioned in the OP, so i guess that isn't off-topic... |
