I love this guy He gets excited about something and doesn't bother to hide it. But that makes him honest; he feels strongly for Bitcoin, and rightly so.

I'd keep some for the fee and for good Samaritan tax But I'd send the rest back to him.

Here's a WIP of some album art I'm doing for a pal of mine. If anyone's interested in artwork, I'm always taking new orders

I keep thinking the same. But I'm more worried a BTC client will have a backdoor. Always use open source

Well, he's not wrong. The question is kind of dumb. Bitcoin isn't tangible. But debts aren't tangible either, and we kill people over those. Tangibility's got nothing to do with it. Gold's as useless as you'll let it be (unless you're using it for certain mechanical applications.) But it's shiny and tangible and orangey-yellow, like the sun, so it must be worth loads, right? Right?
...right?

That would make a catchy song.
You're right. Oddly, I'm a songwriter. Thanks for making me take a second look at my own stuff. No wonder you have such a way with words, then

Whenever you want to print money, any excuse will do.
Bernanke has gas. Better print some money. Sunrise at 06:35. Better print some money. Look at the time! Better print some money. Wife yelled at me this morning. Better print some money. Entrail reading was positive. Better print some money. That would make a catchy song.

Great visual Seeing "free world" leaders beside the likes of Hitler would get anyone to start thinking critically of their own gov. It's all about control. At the same time, there could also be a history of BTC confiscation...which will be several times harder, as long as the web stays private and free. If not, it'll be easy, and that's the end of free will.

What software do you use to create these designs?

When the news says something about American soldiers putting down their weapons and refusing to follow their commander's orders because they felt what they were doing was wrong, I'll agree with you I'm sure its happened at some point in time, just, not a whole lot, or not for very long. But the trend seems to be, do what you're told or else you're a traitor, and though soldiers do have conscious, they're not given much room to think outside the box. I'd be scared to, personally. They kick your ass in the military until you see things their way. Actually, it has happened a lot. In fact, I was shocked at the amount of people who were simply discharged for going AWOL over the past decade. No prison time, no "traitor" status, just released. And again, your post shows more blindness to what would actually happen if the government decided to start slaying citizens. The commanders would be among the first to say "not happening". For example, listen to the open opposition from high ranking Marine commanders when Dont Ask, Dont Tell was repealed to allow gays to serve openly. I think the quote was something along the lines of "That is not happening in my Corp!" And you think they are going to just say, ah alright, well kill off a few thousand citizens who decide to stand up for the same Constitution that we are sworn to defend. Comon! Hrm, I dunno if I'd trust a fellow who was openly against Don't Ask, Don't Tell being revoked. But I suppose there are different reasons; getting more and more people into the military is a common theme lately, despite the military being already bloated beyond belief, and I smell another draft in the works. Can you link me a few sources for commanders actively refusing to follow certain orders? I know the military hasn't always been the best in the past ten years (there was a post recently about a member seeking donations for his brother's squad who wasn't even receiving the basic necessities required to do their job, let alone survive comfortably), but people change when times are desperate. If there is an uprising, I would hope the military would remember who their true commanders are, and it isn't the guys in suits at D.C., but money's never failed before. I have faith in humanity, but not that much; history has a strange way of repeating itself. The Germans can attest to killing their own kind, including the handicapped and deformed, and if they could do it under certain circumstances, I wouldn't rule it out completely.

What about the incredibly stupid, racist and fear mongering right wing Christians that are among them and think it's okay to beat children or send them off to fight in wars for no good reason? I hate them all, particularly the ones that assume I must be on the opposite side because I disagree with them and they don't know any other political ideologies the stupid pricks.
I love conversations like this, especially when they include these comments that make me laugh so hard my side splits. Anyways, there seems to be this mass confusion that Soldiers, Police, etc are all just brainless sheep that are going to follow any and all orders handed down to them no matter how extreme they are. Here is a crazy thought, they are people with the ability to think just like the rest of you (some seemingly a little better...). In fact, the only Soldiers I have ever met that would be willing to take anyone's gun are the worthless turds who are not very good Soldiers. So if you seriously believe you are going to have to fight the "war machine", you are probably being a little more extreme than those child abusing, war mongering Christians. When the news says something about American soldiers putting down their weapons and refusing to follow their commander's orders because they felt what they were doing was wrong, I'll agree with you I'm sure its happened at some point in time, just, not a whole lot, or not for very long. But the trend seems to be, do what you're told or else you're a traitor, and though soldiers do have conscious, they're not given much room to think outside the box. I'd be scared to, personally.

Hi I am new to the forum. I am interested in establishing a small credit line. How does someone barrow bitcoins?
Okay serious face Too serious... There we go. Borrowing bitcoins doesn't really happen, per se. You're looking to strike up a loan. Loans are really hard to do, because scamming is extremely common here. So stick around, make some friends, get your nose all brown, and maybe when you have 1k posts and a year of mileage on your account, you'll be able to ask someone for a small loan Not trying to be funny, but it's really tough, because people default all the time.
