The major rule is pretty simple - don't post plagiarised content.
Bumping your own thread too much is discouraged, and you shouldn't use also to do this.

With regards to text formatting. If you do it, you risk losing many of the more serious readers. It's much the same as the misuse of quoting, and, even worse, nested quoting.

Just out of interest, why would you want to format text, and reduce the legibility for speed readers?

Social distancing doesn't do much to stop the spread of virus immunity, but it is a great way for the government to impose fines, and gain acceptance from the gullible.

Or at least run a wallet on a pruned node.

The last bike I rode regularly was a Trident T160 - https://sumpmagazine.com/triumph-trident/triumph-trident-t160.htm

I sold that some riume ago, and they have shot up in value over the last few years. I still own a Triumph Tiger Cub, and a 1939 Francis Barnett Powercycle, but they both need a bit of restoration.

Carbon dioxide is the life breath of plants and trees, so any increase should improve agriculture.
The decrease in farming output is caused by monoculture farming, bank repossessions of farmland and other financial penalties. and the changes in the use of arable land.

It isn't weird if you realise the the Eton/Oxford elite control the UK ( and most other Western countries), and they have been systematically raiding the UK, and the EU to fund their Anglophone empire. Boris Johnson has an Eton/Oxford/banking background, as have most of out MPs Civil servants, and lawyers.

Whether that is true or not, there is a greater disadvantage in the use of hand sanitisers. The virus fighting bacteria on your skin form one of the first lines of defences against a variety of infections, and they have evolved over thousands of years to help us to stay healthy. By killing them, you are raising the portcullis to allow infections into your body.

I know they are both based on fiat values, and governments are trying to reduce the use of cash, but many people seem to be withdrawing large amounts of cash at the moment. Obviously they are expecting difficulties with the use of banking accounts in the future. I suspect that they are expecting a financial reset, as governments try to replace the current virtual currency with a pseudo-crypto currency. Cash may become important in the transition period.

Bitcoin and alternative crypto currencies do provide alternatives,but they may continue to be slow in adoption. Cash has been trusted for many years despite the fact that it is a depreciating asset, and I believe that it will continue to be used after the change from the current banking system. Obviously banks will resist this, and any cash deposits will be withdrawn to reduce the supply. This could lead to an increase in the value of cash based on the current fiat currency, always providing that the public continues to use it of course.

Sending in the army is not the only method to apply force. I receive emails stating that I am classed as a vulnerable person, and if I don't accept the need for certain medical recommendations over drugs and vaccines, then I may lose access to certain facilities. This is something that is of great concern to some of my elderly friends, and it stops them seeking medical advice when they need it. I have heard of people being vaccinated without consent, and without notice. The nurse just jabs their arms when they are not watching.

I have never stated that healthy people cannot be infected by the virus. In fact there are estimated that up to 80% of the population has achieved immunity as a result of recovering from infection. Obviously this is contrary to the interests of the vaccine industry, and it is extremely difficult to discover research into this. I understand there is a legal action underway at the moment to force Oxford University to release suppressed survey results, but no doubt it will be too late when that is released ( if it ever gets released).

Information related to my statement are available either by direct comment, or by inference, in many of the virus reports. You just need to be prepared to think about some of the comments. Statements such as " I am a healthy person, I have all my shots, and I take my medication" are often found in reports by people recovering from the virus. Quite clearly those statements indicate that the person is not healthy, and has a compromised immune system.

He makes a number of incorrect statements. Bitcoin is a medium of exchange, and volatility doesn't affect this. Fiat is not money any more, contrary to popular belief. The prices of gold, Bitcoin and fiat are all manipulated. The cap is just one thing that gives Bitcoin a hard asset status, another is the immutability and stability of the blockchain, and now other crypto is likely to copy this. This is why they need an element of centralisation.

I think the guys has put together a bunch of misconceptions, and is trying to use an ancient Chinese philosophy to justify a weaker alternative concept.

I'm not sure that I agree.There is a basic level of knowledge required, but one does not have to have an in depth technical knowledge. Obviously one needs to know about wallet security, and have an overview of the blockchain and transactions and fees. After all. everybody uses the fiat system, but how many people understand the role and ownership of central banks, or fractional reserve banking, let alone SDRs and the various derivatives in use at the moment.

I son't believe that Bitcoin was created to be a currency. The 21 million cap, and the 10 minute block creation time, means that it will never be suitable for volume payments for low value items. It is money, and a great medium of exchange when time is not of the essence. Because of this, I hope it will never appear as a direct payment method in supermarkets. If it does, then it will need an intermediate banking or quasi-banking intervention, and this rather defeats the Bitcoin concept.

They have found traces of the virus in sewage samples from Europe that predate the published Wuhan cases. Of course that doesn't mean that it wasn't in China at the same time.

I'm such a wuss, i use ignore and don't get involved, usually because I don't understand the issue.
I miss members like tman, lauda and shorena though

The last thing we need is a crappy untested vaccine against a minor virus that hasn't killed any healthy person so far. These crippling vaccines are far more of a threat than natural viruses that we can gain fairly fast immunity if we have a sensible health policy.

I say that there is no record of any healthy person dying from the virus anywhere in  the world

We suspect that it escaped from the Wuhan lab that is part funded by Fauci. We  also know that it is unnatural. It has a section in its RNA string that couldn't evolve naturally. It had to be snipped out of another virus and added clinically. It is the section that makes it more contagious. The virus developement has been going on in several of the bio warfare labs, including Porton Down in the UK. It is rumoured that the Wuhan lab has sold a bio weapon involving Anthrax to Pakistan, so expect more of these pandemics in the future.

Thanks for that.

It's my traditional English background. The use of a surname without a title or Christian name was reserved for Lords,but that seems to have gone by the bye. The other use comes from references by public school boys, who tended to use surnames rather than Christian names. (remember that in England "public" schools are the top private schools, free education is provided by state schools).

To refer to your OP
I support capital punishment in cases like this if guilt can be proven without a reasonable doubt.

Branson is a treasonous money grabber, who belittled the UK, and tried to force us into staying in the EU. He is also a mate of Obama, and tries to manipulate politics to disadvantage the country in favour of his elite banking friends. Freddie Laker that Virgin airlines, so it isn't even a Branson creation. Why should the country on which he turned his back support him after he has milked the airline company?

Please note - this does not refer to Admiral Lord Nelson - the English naval hero. On seeing the title of this thread, that was why I opened it.
