701  Other / Off-topic / poptok1 on time travel on: August 03, 2018, 04:00:56 PM
Does anyone notices what above thesis implies?
I'm saying that human beings are already able to travel forward in time and back to the present.
No travelling back in time is possible...sorry. If you wonder how exactly, just ask.
I will call it Schroedinger's Time machine aka neutron bomb for market economy... if used with greed in mind  Roll Eyes
However I have a hunch that any data broth back from the future will split space time continuum so no actual paradoxes can occur.
But we will "never" find this out for sure.


In the next episode I will tell you how and why Big Bang happened, without any modern string mumbo-jumbo.
Only pure, good, old-fashioned, general relativity.
Remember that Mr Einstein expressed his doubts in quantum mechanics, this means that there is still place for doubts.
In fact there is a need for it because lack of questioning equals to lack of observers and absence of reality.

On quantum computing:
What gives the information?
I just noticed that there is no coherent explanation available on the web.
Most psychicist tend to go "mysterious" "all quantum" "illogical" when it comes to the actual computation process.
Their imagination takes them to elusive quantum field of information where in reality no such phenomena is needed.
The CPU:
Those Computers are a form of glorified refrigerators. Various chunks of matter like: metals, water, superconductors can be used as a quantum state object. This little piece of whatever, has to be cooled to the temperature close to absolute zero ( −273,15 °C ), 0 K, and very tightly isolated from the surrounding environment. Shielding and vacuum is necessary for the QCPU to maintain stable quantum state. Variances of shape for the tube in which electrons travel are many. General rule seems to be the spiral form. There are two of such tubes/wires, If electron goes spirally left it means 1, when right 0, when both direction at the same time it gives needer.
So, what gives the freaking info poptok1?
Obviously it is the chunk of super cold matter, kept in quantum state Smiley
What does it mean to be super-cold?
This is where the real fun starts. Imagine that centigrade scale, just like Fahrenheit are only the constructs, conventions. Only Klevin is used in real science. We can change the scales for centigrade a little and look what's happens: -299,79 °C = zero Kelvin. Noticed anything strange? Yes! This is the value for the speed of light. There is no law of physics that denies us the right to readjust this scale. It actually doesn't matter, as long as we keep Kelvin untouched.  It should help you to visualize the nature of the phenomena.
According to Mr Einstein special relativity, when an object is reaching speed of light "C, the time this object is experiencing goes to zero. So what happens when given object will be completely stopped? You guessed it, its time experience accelerates! The opposite for max speed of an object can not be a simple stop because everything is in motion relative to each other. Earth to sun, sun to galaxy etc. However when you freeze something to the temperature of -299,79 °C (which is impossible just like reaching speed of light) this object is considered fully-stopped by the Universes law. When such cold object "observes" another that has speed, time dilatation is taking place, cold-bit of matter "sees" the speeding electrons in fast-forward. If super-cold matter "observes" something that has speed of light, the effect doubles! Fast object appears to be moving at 2xC". No law is broken Mr Albert as this is just pure relativity.
In short please...
Minimum flow speed of time is 0Kelvin. Closer you get to it, the more "normal" world speeds up. That it Smiley
Quantum Computers, thanks to relativity and time dilatation can "see" in to the future.
All the possible electrons configurations in the tubes mentioned above, are seen in fast forward.
Cold chunk is connected to the regular CPU, like in your laptop and rapports the observation of electrons.
No elusive quantum field is needed,
Just one thing
IMO Mr Albert would like my hypothesis, because it is very simplistic. No extra dimensions or entities (Ockham Razor).
Would he approve my centigrade scales readjustment? I think I would get a kiss for it or at the least a lollipop.
Hope you liked this read. It was composed here from scratch because other "scientific" forums keep deleting this hypothesis.
If you wonder what is the basis for my temperature=time thesis, look for "Big Dispersion" theory.

 Roll Eyes...and I already know that it will never happen, not without a "pressure" from the public.
What are your thoughts, is it possible, is it sustainable, fair, logical and bulletproof?
-In my opinion it is but only in combination with fractional reserve lending abolition (which is a fraud anyway).
How to force, you know who, in to doing the right thing?
-protest?
IMO the only protest sign that's relevant but are there any "bad" consequences, how would aftermath look like?

I'm starting to dislike ChipMixer.
Some of its campaigners are heavily and regularly fluffing in mega threads*.
Maybe its hard to detect for manager, maybe he is oblivious to it, idk but in my opinion such frequent, anodyne discussions between same campaign members are harmful for the image of any given company, not to mention forum usefulness. DarkStar please fix.

Dear TheQuin & concerned fellow forumsters, don't you think that freebitcoin thread turned in to a definition of a spamfest?*

I have this sticking suspicion that it is partly your fault. No offens of course, this is not an personal attack.
I do believe that you are doing your best, basically no question is left unanswered. However in the long run this may harm the image of our last good faucet, some post are clearly simple triggers or blunt trolling that are not even worthy of reading, not to mention responding. You doing your job, are the main cause for trolls to post, you are the attention giver, in a manner of speaking.
I have seen this before, when wetsuit was still around, I'm assuming he left because of this among other reasons and the thread went civilized again. Obviously I'm not trying to get rid of you... far from it. Do not pay attention to my condescending tone, this is just to express my concern about usefulness of this thread and clarity on forum. My advice is to care a bit less. I'm more then sure that wetsuit would approve and share my opinion. *(rhetorical)

Interconnection took me an hour to decide whenever to post this or not, concluding: it must have been done

706  Economy / Goods / Re: Purchase with Crypto? Wild Jerky available for 18 currencies! What's next?? on: July 29, 2018, 12:55:11 PM
I can't imagine that somehow.
Yes, it is some sort of psychobiological issue. Hard for me to grasp as well but it does not change the facts, better to keep smaller but reputable means of payment than many, sometimes unknown methods. This seem quite reasonable.
I got a feeling it may also have something to do with recognition and "advertisement" of other coins.
Let say that I'm a fanboy of coin A and coin B is my "nemesis". I want to buy some sweet deer-jerky, I'm all set, ready to click check out and then... nemesis! Smiley -ooo no, im out of here dude
Second scenario could be the unintentional advertisement of a coin. Im doing my shopping and at the checkout I encounter a new coin, that was unknown for me up to this point. I'm interested, intrigued, I will check and research this new coin, some stats, some forum,  coin market cap and voila, an hour has passed without the actual transaction. IMO bad thing for businesses, distraction and new perspectives may discourage from buying.
Thats just my uneducated guess on the matter, it may be totally wrong Smiley
As to bulk buying mentioned before, now its also looks OK, might have been an issue with page zoom as I was browsing in 125% enlargement, fonts got distorted(?).
707  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More Regulations For Cryptocurrency? on: July 29, 2018, 12:04:10 PM
I think this is very necessary. There are currently too many fraudulent projects in the market. This has a huge impact on the crypto market.
Nobody is forcing you to invest in those projects, right? Why worry about other people decisions, why bother what they do with money that are theirs to throw out? I don't need daddy government to tell me what is good for me and what's not. I have a brain of my own, if all those regulations deprave me of making a mistake, how on earth I will be able to learn? I wont be and this is the exact goal, they want us stupid, they need us obedient and questions free, in order to rule more (d)effectively.
Remember, regulation equals defraudation. Anybody that is pro regulatory is a misled sheep, on its way to the slaughterhouse.
 
708  Economy / Goods / Re: Purchase with Crypto? Wild Jerky available for 18 currencies! What's next?? on: July 29, 2018, 11:42:43 AM
Quite impressive range of cryptos you got there. I think you are nailing adoption right there Smiley
I don't think that adding more cryptos will give any significant boost to your sells. Look how traditional payment options are set up it the shops, there is never more than few options available. There must be a reason, it is said that more options actually confuses customers and derails the focus from the merchandise. IMO might be true but times are changing so who knows.

I have noticed that single packages are cheaper than buying in bulk, so it is more economical to order 20 single packs than 2big boxes... kinda nonsensical don't you think or maybe somehow deliberate?

-snip-
What do you guys think?
They are no longer updating their ICO ANN thread tho they are active on telegram.  Undecided
Well they have this issue of being incredibly slow and unresponsive here on forum.
It happened before in the signature campaign, but all ended quite OK, no body was left behind and some were gratified for the wait.
Doesn't mean that such practice shouldn't be ostracised... just give them some time, don't worry but keep the situation in check.
710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to make bitcoin a popular payment method? on: July 27, 2018, 08:01:34 PM
This was recently pointed out directly in the decision of the European Parliament's Committee on Economic and Financial Affairs.
Could you point us to the source of this news? It would be huge, in fact so huge that I can't imagine, basically hard to believe.
Maybe we have some sort of misunderstanding here, by recognition as a legal way of payment, I mean situation where a shop keeper has no right to refuse you making a purchase with bitcoin. By refusing he is in violation with the law, and faces fine or prison time. This is how things are with fiat money now. There are some derogations from it like legal age in case of alcohol etc. Anyway source please Smiley
711  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to make bitcoin a popular payment method? on: July 27, 2018, 02:56:19 PM
Every country has an own regulation on payment when bitcoin is legalized to all country this is an alternative currency and will accept as payment.
If by legalize you mean that banks will have to make bitcoin an officially recognized means of payment, than I have a bad news for you, it will never happen Smiley No central bank will allow itself to loose the control over currency of any given country. No government will agree to utilize and merge its finance with technology of unknown origin.
Good news is that we, the people, can. Bottom-up initiative is way better anyway. Start to use crypto in transactions between friends and relatives, if you own a e-shop use it as well and voila, bitcoin accepted all over the place.

How To Make a Mint (which I often like to evangelize).
I'm so glad that you do like to evangelize this Smiley what a cool read... who could expect such a useful piece from this agency?
However the fact that this paper was disclosed tells us the whole story, they wont utilize this particular idea. Absolute morons at the top of the food chain, no surprise there. Basically they rejected the golden eggs laying hen... typical but... were we lucky?
Do you think satoshi read this paper? Was it an inspiration for his ideas? (tinfoil hats on) Laurie Law, Susan Sabett, Jerry Solinas was this satoshi?  Cheesy After their work was dismissed, left unappreciated maybe they got somewhat rouge and open source with the on-line version only of this work? How does their mathematics compare(if at all) with the blockchain?

The potential is there but that does not mean that it is going to happen, there are too many created interests that are invested in the idea of fiat money and they are not going to let this system die that easily and even if in the future it happened they will find another way to deceive people and make them accept a system that benefits the bankers and not the people. 
This is the exact reason why bitcoin will never be mainstream. It will always be a form of mutiny. It not necessarily a bad or a good thing, that of course depends on the users themself. We can already see how blockchain is being recognised by various governments, how they plan and introduce currency's of their own, centralized and under administration control. Decade from now, state issued crypto will be a quite regular thing. Early adopters and enthusiasts of today should bear in mind what and who was the first on the stage, because next generation will not care.
715  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When you think of currency what will come to your mind? on: July 25, 2018, 08:21:24 AM
Ahaha Beautiful picture! It's true! Notice how the technology is evolving rapidly and with them new payment systems. Even wonder what is waiting for humanity years through 15-20?
On the contrary my friend, this picture is a terrible piece of propaganda. I'm getting angry just by looking at it.
Look on what it is actually imposing here, primitive beings use cash, highly evolved ones use smart-banking.
I would reverse/extend this picture in a way where chimpanzee ahead of homo sapiens sapiens  is carrying a smartphone...
Bitcoin is cash, not a token of it. It can't be compared with regular banking and we know it.
Fist monkey is smarter than that guy on the right, middle humanoid is the most moronic one and this poor guy is just horribly confused. Worst thing is, that he is unaware of it. This picture is wrong on so many levels than I can even.... Smiley
716  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price goes 8000 above :) on: July 24, 2018, 04:10:46 PM
because of the possible approval of ETF
This could be one thing and the other could be that syndicate (trustee) of Mt.Gox finally sold all the 200.000 bitcoins.
Or maybe they just took vacations and selling stopped temporarily? I would be cautious with estimations here.
Stay calm, hype is never a good thing to follow.   
717  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Bitcoin ETF Decision on the 16th of August ? on: July 24, 2018, 11:59:56 AM
...short term bullrun can fade away.  Embarrassed
Such possibility always exists, no need to be sad, it's all speculative in nature and one can not have any real influence.
What matters is, that's yet another way for legitimization of bitcoins in general public eyes.
Sure, more bubble like spikes may happen, soon after some (even severe) dispersion but all in all awareness along with confidence for cryptocurrency will get boosted. I think it may prove to be quite good in the long run, when all the craze will come to an end.

However there is a huge "but" in my opinion, the ICO's. Wonder what is the correlation and how SEC will recognize those?
718  Economy / Economics / Re: Beside Cryptocurrenices where would you invest? on: July 23, 2018, 08:34:58 PM
I think that the simplest solutions work the best, as a result of this I say best investment today is land.
Its finite but still in abundance, always required by housing, industry and services. Agriculture is a little in decline as technology allows us to gather more crops from smaller areas but I think that in few decades farming will encounter a boom.
However one looks at it, whatever the perspective, land seems like a smart choice.  
719  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Supporting Families in Venezuela with Bitcoin on: July 23, 2018, 03:44:14 PM
KingScorpio is right, there is potentially more harm than good in incentivise those people in to mining.
However if OP wants to help, there is nothing that could stop him from doing so.
I think it will be best to look for people without crypto know how, on social media. Of course look for them personally rather than through some platform as founds can get defrauded. Reach such people with facebook or similar medium, ask questions unrelated with financial help to be sure you are dealing with genuine Venezuelan. Teach them what crypto is and than send some.
Looks like a hassle and probably is but what you are getting in return is metaphysical certitude of a real help.
720  Economy / Economics / Re: Market freedom collapsing projects at exchanges. on: July 22, 2018, 06:53:02 PM
-snip- limitations on the price at exchanges, it will help.
Basically the worst thing you can do. Think about it, who will decide the final price, at what basis, when?
What you are proposing is price fixing, which is considered illegal in the modern world.
Best case scenario results in highly regulated market but who will do the regulations, government? I'm immediately screaming no!
That's communism dude... it always ends with shots in the back of a head, in the midst of a dark forest (no joke).
Forget about regulations, real freedom makes all this crypto-gig worth something. Without IT its all lost!
