tell them to just upload it to https://www.coindl.com/

What do you think I told them in the first place?

Does the current inability to short have anything to do with this move?

I strongly suspect that it does and I can't wait for kronos to come online.

7 days ago I got this email:

Hi hazek,

Just thought I'd follow up your last email.  Thanks heaps for your helpful links regarding Bitcoin.  We've researched into using accepting Bitcoin as payment, but it's not feasible or practical to pursue at this point in time.

Thanks again for your interest in the film.

Regards,
Ed.
 

Oh well. I replied asking why, but haven't heard back since.

Lol nice try, but I'm not using google translate  Grin What you just wrote should actually look like this: Je to ekipa, ki bo odšla v Kenijo?  Wink Wink

Cool, želim vam srečno in varno potavanje in da doživite vse kar si želite doživet Wink

Now ask questions about Bitcoin so we can plug any holes you may have in your knowledge about it. Tongue

Oh, yeah that makes way more sense  Wink
2009  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Live Discussion on kenija2012 WILL be here ~ All Welcome in 12 Minutes on: June 05, 2012, 07:10:07 PM
..therefore allowing you to pass on knowledge gleaned from us to others of your ilk that may also be interested in Bitcoin..

I doubt there will be many opportunities for teaching about Bitcoin when they'll have their hands full with medical work, maybe if they meet any local entrepreneurs they could introduce the idea to is probably the best chance they'll have.
2010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Live Discussion on kenija2012 WILL be here in 10 Minutes ~ All Welcome on: June 05, 2012, 07:06:38 PM
Ok some more questions then:

Have you already raised all the money you need or are you still fundraising?
Have you made any prior arrangements with any of the locals or are you going in blind so to speak?
How long do you intend to stay?
Have you thought about how you're going to ensure your safety?
Do you have any mental strategies prepared to deal with probably not so rosy circumstances you about to find yourselves in?


I think that's enough for now.  Cool

Phinnaeus Gage I completely misunderstood the purpose of this thread, I thought it was going to be a live chat with them where we, the Bitcoin community, ask them qestions but no I see that it's actually meant to be the other way around where they would like to ask us question so that they better understand Bitcoin, or do I still misunderstand what is happening in this thread?

What is the most important aspect of Bitcoin in your opinion?
2014  Economy / Speculation / Re: Rally!!!!! on: June 05, 2012, 12:26:14 PM
We need kronos ASAP to slow this madness down a bit.. before the pendulum overshoots more than necessary.
2015  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Empowering honest Bitcoin users on: June 05, 2012, 01:06:49 AM
Can you seriously not see the foolishness of suggesting people, once they receive coins for which there was a mere accusation of theft made many transactions ago, that they'll turn around and tell the sender: "hey these coins were once accused of being stolen and I'm now going to keep/delete/return them, so if you still want to do this deal with me, you need to send me new coins.."

Are you really this thick to suggest something like that?

Take the hint already.
2018  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Empowering honest Bitcoin users on: June 04, 2012, 06:26:11 PM
You introducing a system that imposes a form of taint does nothing to prevent theft but does make using Bitcoin a hassle for those who are innocent.

Therefore I do not support this and will vigorously reject any movement towards this initiative and any like it.

A huge +1.
2019  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One strike web of trust, where a verified personal photo is your ID? on: June 03, 2012, 11:28:04 AM
What would you do with identical tweens, provided that one of them went rogue?

Good question. The solution is probably a live video chat with the twins or real life meeting with them to ensure they actually exist and grant them their spot on the list. If after that they abuse each other's membership ID and get each other removed, they'll only be able to do so once and it's not much that can be done about it I don't think (at least not off the top of my head right now).

Also fake mustaches and wig might be hard to recognize in a video chat.

Just check out The Juice Media | Rap News (http://thejuicemedia.com/) it's all one guy most of the time!
By the way they accept donations in Bitcoin Smiley

Video chat will require some tests to prove it's live real time and perhaps some touching, tugging and pulling of their face to ensure it's not a mask.. Someone like that would need to have his mask on every single time they wanted to use their membership ID in a transaction.. plus I think facial recognition doesn't get fooled by a simple fake mustache and the rap news guy's mask are very obvious.
2020  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: One strike web of trust, where a verified personal photo is your ID? on: June 03, 2012, 11:21:42 AM
Also, what would prevent a scammer from paying someone to do the video verify and then use that account in some elaborate, long con?

First: anyone could only once scam someone if they didn't care being on the list
Second: it's your responsibility when dealing with someone and receiving their membership ID and being able to see their photo to verify it again for yourself

The initial verification is only for preventing fake photos being used and preventing a new signup by the same person. Preventing someone using a members ID in an identity theft is done by an on the go individual verification.

So say you as a member want to do business with B, you don't know B, B tells you his also a member of this organization's list of members bound to certain rules, he gives you his ID, you give him yours, you each other either meet in RL or meet in a live video chat to make sure the photos match, boom, now you know you both have agreed to the same rules for which you, because you are still both on the list, you are able to know neither of you has broken yet towards any other member. The list will also show for how long someone is being on it..

Of course if you have only 5 people on the list this is pointless, but imagine if you have a huge community of people on it and you as an outsider can't do business with any of them if you aren't on the list, then it becomes much more significant and you will have a huge incentive to stay on the list if you wanted to continue to do business with that community.
