Namecoin is going to supersede DNS any day now...

Who cares. Go fuck off back into Vitaliks anus.

Buying again, starting @ $38k. Orders laddering all the way down to $34k in place, just in case.

This dodge pump is starting to piss me off.

It's distracting, and completely, brainlessly retarded.

Kudos to folk profiting from it, but it just boggles my mind at how fucking idiotic crypto-Twitter is on doge right now.

On the plus side, all roads lead to King Corn, so, I guess that is OK.

Saw this posted on the WO thread yesterday, and thought it looked interesting. I would be interested in something beefier in the hash rate department, but it's nice to see home miner solutions being made available again.

Paying with crypto for these is just a bad idea in general, but if paying with Paypal, that affords you some measure of protection if they do not deliver on time. Paypal doesn't fuck around when it comes to their sellers not meeting production deadlines for pre-orders.

Good luck with this project. We need more mining decentralization. Give me something in the 1200w range, and I would be interested in picking up a few for our upcoming ranch, which will be powered by wind and solar almost exclusively.

I'm probably wrong, but I have a feeling we're going to see $50k over the next seven days.

$39k again...

Observing quarterly shorts getting blown out @ $40k USD/BTC.

Get the fuck out of here.

Ignored.

I forgot. Scorpions. Have seen Scorpions around here. Very rare, tho. Have never personally eyeballed a Tarantula around these parts, but have heard anecdotal reports, like yours.

Rick can't stand Tarantulas.

Austin is practically overrun with them, from what I'm led to understand.

Not so much in the area we are looking in. Guess it gets too cold up here. Not many scary things around the Dallas parallel. Brown Recluse, Black Widow, Water Moccasins, and the occasional Rattle Snake are all that I'm aware of. Have only ever personally eyeballed a Black Widow around these parts.

Fair point. Did not consider that. IPFS should be free. Filecoin is indeed muddying the waters.

I retract my point about Filecoin being relevant.

Fuck no. I'm not into altcoins at all. BTC maxi all the way. The question was about other working blockchain products, and I noted one that interests me, due to its IPFS roots.

Dumped all my memestocks at market open, and bought a nice healthy block of corn @ $36,800. /r/wallstreetbets moderators being so blindly negative on Bitcoin ultimately turned me off their entire community and activism.

Decided I no longer wanted to be a part of it.

Back to degenerate sat stacking.

Back where I belong.

Not sure about that stuff. You asked about a working blockchain product, and Filecoin is really the only technical project out there that interests me beyond Bitcoin.

Was actually thinking about running a storage node, and start generating some income by devoting HD space, but I don't have SSD's or a system meeting their server RAM requirements. Don't feel like building one either. Was hoping to use my existing infra.

Not going to buy into it, but following the project, as a distributed filesystem interests me. I am concerned about NOT storing illegal content, so, not sure how that stuff can be resolved or monitored. Probably goes against what the coin was built for, but I don't want to be storing CP, for example (and yes, I am aware of being able to extract all manner of crap from the BTC blockchain. Doesn't mean I want to do it or support it.)

Filecoin.

Was thinking something along these lines is more apropos.

 Actually, yes. The driveway will be *AT LEAST* serving as a straightaway 1/4 mile drag strip before hitting the bridge leading towards the main parcel of land.

 Difficulty factor: Roaming, grazing cattle. Will need to find some way of making sure the cattle are completely isolated from the driveway and racetrack.

EDIT: Jesus a lot of my $GME buy orders executed today, on the way down. YOLO !!!

Is it wrong for me to admit I am sexually excited by the notion of hedge funds being absolutely destroyed ?

Things are getting pretty serious about Ranchero Lawblaw. Have engaged an engineer for a proper survey / evaluation of the land we're looking to buy. Also, surveying to see if we're able to build a well on the property, which will be critical.

Woo.

Them: "Wait, so, you want to build a racetrack, through a 100-year floodplain ?"
Me: "Yeah, 1% chance per year. That means I have a 99% chance, decreasing, of using it every year until I die. I'll play those odds."
Them: * Look on face of "Is this polite black man serious ?" *
Me: "Yes. I'm absolutely serious. Around the perimeter of the property. Please make sure we are abiding by easement rules for the properties next to us. We'll need a cross-section for the race-track intersecting the driveway."
Them: "You have obviously given this a lot of thought."
Me: "Yes."

Also, go Corn !!!
