2481  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ★★DigiByte|极特币★★[DGB]✔$250k Investment, DigiByte Gaming, #DigiByteTip, DigiSpeed on: December 21, 2015, 04:08:04 PM
It's very tiring reading these toxic replies from the same few newbie accounts over and over again.

If your out of money then you have nobody but yourself to blame. You invested in a free for all market with no regulation and more than likely did close to no research before doing so. With that said, I've been around long enough to know that even if you did buy into the tail end of a pump and dump that if you hold long enough you will indeed make your money back at which point your should promptly exit the crypto market and not come back until you've done some research.

At the end of the day you need to put up or shut up but whatever you decide to do I'll continue to devote efforts towards making DigiByte better for all its users.

I very much agree on your post because I'm in that position more or less. However I did my research to discovered that research means "inside info" since it's all manipulated and features or projects doesn't really matter in terms of coin value. So I have faith that DGB will be pumped eventually and I can get out. It's sad because the project itself is great.

Well that was a completely random offer, you don't list any skills you have and there's a round number you are asking. I don't understand the point of this thread but good luck. I suggest you find a part time job and buy some BTC.
2483  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin dropping again? on: December 21, 2015, 04:05:56 AM
I don't think it will fall below $400 but of course it's possible. Didn't expect this drop considering how close we are to the end of the year. Maybe it picks up tomorrow.
2484  Economy / Speculation / Re: Does anyone know why Bitcoin is down today? on: December 21, 2015, 01:09:34 AM
No one knows as usual, the market can be manipulated, not as easily as the altcoin one but in the pas couple of months something very weird has been happening and there's no real answer.

Well then we should start incarcerating people for thinking about murder? Thinking about something it's not a crime. I recommend a documentary about that cop who had fantasies about killing and raping women. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4503900/

Anyway, like I said, a terrorist doesn't struggle with the fact, he's convinced what he's doing it's right for whatever crazy reason. But pedophiles (not all of course sadly) as many studies say are deeply conflicted about it and many of them never act on it, they even end up killing themselves. They are not "crazy" or "evil" in medical sense, that's why it's hard to find counterpoints in this day where a woman can turn gender but not sexual preference...

Either way, if thinking about it is a crime, then we should conduct studies before it happens and throw them in jail. But with the same rule we should then incarcerate all who harbor all evil thoughts.
2486  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Shocking Times: Movement for Pedophile “Rights” Marches On on: December 20, 2015, 03:02:13 PM
I think it's more complicated than that. Rapists, murderers, thieves and terrorists are either psychopaths or deeply trouble individuals/deranged and it's based on choice if you ask me. I don't think pedophiles fall in the same category.

OK.. so what you are saying is that raping an adult is a crime, but raping a kid is not so. Rather than a criminal activity, you argue that it is a mental condition. Sorry... I can't agree with you.

From what I know these people have urges similar to homosexuality, it's not a choice for them, they never do the transition and want to have sex with women or men, just boys and girls.

This the argument given out by pro-Pedophile groups such as NAMbLA, to legalize sex with underage children. They claim that pedophilia is a way of living, just like homosexuality.

No that's exactly what I'm not saying of course, raping a child is completely out of the question, read my post again. If this is a debate then there should be something more to it than pedos are evil. Surely not all pedophiles are the same, is it a crime to be attracted to boys/girls? I don't think they can incarcerate you for that. But they will in a second if you rape one hopefully. I think the debate is actually examining how complex this problem is. You don't see many terrorists don't wanting to be terrorists, or rapists don't wanting to be rapists. They just are or they are not. Many of these people may have all these urges from being abused themselves, think about how sad and tragic that is. I'm not saying give them a medal, it's completely repulsive but to say they are all evil is too simplistic and stupid, sorry. Underage sex should never be legalized that we agree, I'm just saying that I see the point they are raising.

This match Philadelphia 76ers vs Cleveland Cavaliers has potential to get points over 200 easily so that i have my bet on Over 195.5 @1.80 this is great deal to make easy profit.

Definitely one of the best picks for today's games. The Cavs will win this match but they won't focus much on defense at home. On top of that Irving is coming back so they will all try to make him the center of the offense when he's on the court.
2488  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BITCOIN IS BETTER THAN WESTERN UNION ? on: December 19, 2015, 10:17:22 PM
Finally some words of wisdom in this thread after a cataract of denial, Bitcoin might be an unique technology and disruptive idea but it's not as cheap or easy to work with for most people.

Bottomline is, the numbers just don't work, if they did Western Union would be out of business. Establishing a similar service with Bitcoin would cost much more I'm sure as I detailed in many of my posts. And remember Western Union even has brand recognition, so that's a huge plus.

But having a primal attraction for them and not acting out seems to me more like tragic than evil, I don't think they want to be that way or have that feeling but they just do. Modern medicine can't give them a pill, theraphy doesn't work, they won't go away and they will always exist.

Maybe we can accept and be open to the ones that exist but refrain to do any harm? I recently saw in a documentary there is a forum for them and that got me thinking.

WTF boy? You must have fell and bumped your head.

Do you feel the same about rapists, murderers, thieves, and terrorists? You can say that some people are having a primal attraction towards committing terrorist attacks against civilians. Some others are having a primal attraction towards robbing other people's homes.etc. So what is your solution. When some guy comes to my house to rob my belongings, I should welcome him?

I think it's more complicated than that. Rapists, murderers, thieves and terrorists are either psychopaths or deeply trouble individuals/deranged and it's based on choice if you ask me. I don't think pedophiles fall in the same category. The subject is not really black and white in my opinion. From what I know these people have urges similar to homosexuality, it's not a choice for them, they never do the transition and want to have sex with women or men, just boys and girls. Maybe it's not the same case for every one of them but that's what doctors say. These are the times we are living, in simpler times they would all be burning at the stake.

This is a delicate manner but I always tried to put myself in the shoes of many of these persons who didn't commit any crime but had always to restraint this primal instinct that they were born with or acquired at an early age (possibly from abuse on themselves). We may want to think of them as complete evil persons but deep down I think we are afraid of them because we know most of them are real persons with the same emotions as the rest of us. The act of raping children is completely wrong and out of the question here of course, there should be no rights or discussion about that. But having a primal attraction for them and not acting out seems to me more like tragic than evil, I don't think they want to be that way or have that feeling but they just do. Modern medicine can't give them a pill, theraphy doesn't work, they won't go away and they will always exist.

Could be but the Sixers are awful at defense too...NY can light them up or it can become a fast pace game, keep that in mind.
2492  Economy / Speculation / Re: I'm dumping my bitcoins so you should on: December 18, 2015, 05:21:44 PM
The only point I agree is that there should be no faith or worse blind faith, but the rest is just complete speculation on your part. Yes it can be valued at $200 but it can also find support at $800 or whatever with the halving coming. Perhaps in 2018 Bitcoin is no more. If you feel this is a good time to sell, I won't really argue with that because to me it's not a good time to buy, so you may be right on that.

Personally, I would never sell even at $1000 because it won't change my life, Bitcoin price keeps increasing every year since it started, it may fail eventually, but so far it's a great annual investment if you happened to bought at a decent price (I bought at $230 which it's still a lot of many)

Yes it was awful, I thought she was badly injured on how it went and was appalled by the lack of concern by the rest of the players, they should've stopped playing!
2495  Other / Off-topic / Re: bitcoin affects life a lot on: December 18, 2015, 04:11:59 PM
It definitely has an impact on everyday life. I've been very active in this forum alone but other activities that I didn't do before like gambling, reading about Bitcoin, cryptotrading, etc all take time that before it was spent on other things.
2496  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today? on: December 18, 2015, 02:48:21 PM
I don't feel comfortable buying at this value, but every year Bitcoin price has been increasing so far so you should be ok if you are willing to hold for some time. Also many users here will tell you that with the halving happening next year the price will double in the next upcoming months.
2497  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is your gambling stategy? Are you risky, or do you prefer slow? on: December 18, 2015, 03:53:24 AM
It really depends on the game, when I bet on Poker games I always go slow and take my time, I don't usually take risks. On Blackjack it's a little more of the same and I usually try to stay put but this game in particular always send me off the rails eventually and I start to "feel it". That usually means bad decisions.
2498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2015-16 Regular Season Discussion on: December 18, 2015, 03:50:32 AM
The Cavs suffered with all the injuries but I told you guys it was a lock at home. If Irving is back I can actually see them winning @ The Oracle on Christmas day.
2499  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If people in third world countires all have Facebook , on: December 17, 2015, 09:51:01 PM
If these people (average persons) manage their Bitcoin wallets like they do their profiles they will be out of BTC in a week. Wallets, long address, decimals, qr codes, authorization keys and no refunds is not something for non tech savvy people to mess with.
2500  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Argentina’s New President Might Just be a Bitcoin Supporter on: December 17, 2015, 09:11:12 PM
Hey it's not complete BS if you read the article itself, we were just speculating about a future implementation of Bitcoin in Argentina, even if its small. But the article itself focus on how Bitcoin is relevant within the inner circle of the President, nothing more than that, and that Macri himself might know about it.
