Will the bitcoin be under the ideological enforcement of Tea Party zealots?
Believe it or not, us teabaggers tend to enjoy and defend freedom, hence the whole "don't tread on me" thing.

Not entirely true ... "enjoy and defend freedom" only where it fits your agenda. On things that doesn't fit your agenda, it's all about govt control ...  abortion and gays / lesbians comes to mind.
IF it was truly enjoy and defend freedom like you said, what do you care what others do to their bodies and with whom they do it with??
You're thinking of strict conservatives. The Tea Party is part conservative, part libertarian. It's about strictly following the Constitution. The Constitution more or less says that the federal government is to stay out of your life.

As far as gay marriage, most people's only problem is because churches could be forced to perform them, because of a federal law saying you can't discriminate based on orientation. I'm fine with it if a federal law is passed (which could override the discrimination law), but until then, I don't want anyone to be forced to perform a gay marriage against everything they stand for.

As far as abortion, I think 1st trimester is fine, but by the middle of the 2nd trimester it's nearly a human. If you can't be bothered to get off your ass and get to an abortion clinic for 2 hours without procrastinating for 6 months, you don't deserve an abortion.

Thanks for assuming the worst because I don't believe what you believe.

Well Im still looking...
Listen to mlawrence. There are already an abundance of online wallets, some of them are fairly secure (StrongCoin), others not so much.

Sadly, the best analogy I can think of is breadsticks: Lots of them are tasteless grain mixtures, others are amazing. Unless you dedicate your life to it, you're never going to make breadsticks as good as the best that are already out there, and you're still very unlikely to make ones that are better.

All you're going to accomplish by making this is wasting about $400 on development and hosting.

586  Economy / Services / Re: If you can identify this silver round for me I'll send you an Indian Head Penny on: March 13, 2013, 02:23:37 AM
So I was at my local coin shop for my weekly visit and I asked what kind of rounds they had available. They said an old guy had come in this weekend and cashed all of his silver out. Among old Engelhard and JM bars (which I grabbed), I found these rounds I had never seen before. I liked the look of them cause they were simple and raw, and obviously old. I have been looking for about an hour and I can't find anything on who minted it/where/when it was minted. If you figure it out for me I'll send you a pre-1900 Indian head penny for free. Here's the pictures (front and back):




No clue what it is, probably a private mint that's long gone by now.

That reminded me of when I went to a coin dealer near where I live and spent like $11 on a penny from 1899 in very poor condition, just to say I have a pre-1900 coin.
587  Other / Meta / Split products and services? on: March 13, 2013, 12:15:23 AM
Might it be better to split "Goods" into "wanted" and "for sale", and "Services" into "wanted" and "for hire"? It would almost certainly make it easier for people to find what they're looking for.
588  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Apollo 13 film vs the handling of block chain fork, which is better thriller? on: March 12, 2013, 06:39:31 PM
I suggest everybody willing to read a thriller take a look at the chat log in Bitcoin-dev while the chain fork was taking please and a miners and developers tried hard to agree on what to do. Every line is chilling...

Read it at http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/bitcoin-dev/logs/2013/03/12

Have fun! Best regards, Sergio.

Has anyone thought of buying ASIC miners together and splitting the earnings? Say, for example, 3 people buying a Little Single together and splitting the earnings 3 ways?

591  Economy / Services / Re: Your public address in the StrongCoin address book on: March 12, 2013, 02:46:07 PM
All StrongCoin accounts have an address book. https://www.strongcoin.com/

I'm proposing to auction of 5 spots to anyone who wants StrongCoin users to have quick access to your public address. This would be for 1 year.

Please post offers here.

What are you offering, exactly? To add someone to everyone's contacts?

Nice site by the way, only online wallet I've seen with import/export.

How has paypal not blocked them yet? Cashier's check is actually preferred, so this will work well.

They don't accept orders under BTC1.5 or so.

That is incorrect.  For PayPal the min is $20 (as quoted by TheButterZone below) or ~0.4 BTC.   We have currently suspended sale however based on the critical warning by the core dev team.  Once he blockchain fork is resolved we will be happy to buy your coin(s).
No, I meant for check. I wasn't aware that the minimum trade amounts varied when I posted that. Ended up swallowing my pride and just using Paypal. Nice site, quite easy to use.

A man walks in to a bank and asks if he can convert his dollars to bitcoin.

His account is frozen and he is reported as a possible terrorist to the FBI.



now this is good

I'd like to sell BTC0.75 for $35 (about $1 cheaper than spot), but the price would be negotiable. Paypal would be preferable, PM me if interested.

What "critical design aspects"? People are used to seeing a cluttered grid of unnecessary things. Look at any website, and it could be easily rearranged into something like this, with very few elements. It would look much better, be easier to use, and load faster.

Can you tell me exactly what that design is missing, and why what's "missing" needs to be there?
I can't tell you what it's missing because I don't know what you were trying to design and I usually charge for that anyways Wink

I can tell you what you overlooked. For some reason you've settled on a whopping 30px padding throughout but despite all that space, the content still looks squished together. To fix that eyesore rather than add space around the content, increase the font-size, line, and letter spacing to improve readability.

While you're at it, ditch the drop shadow. You've done an awful job of implementing it because it exceeds your content width and doesn't blend in well. Frankly it would look more "minimal" without it, but that's what you're shooting for, right? The header is also abnormally sized at 108px tall, it may just be 2px off (or Cool but it's picking up on the small things that make a good designer.

Thanks, I didn't save the layers, but I'll keep that in mind for next time.

All true, but in any design prototype worth it's salt you'd already have appropriate placeholders in there instead of going "Here's what it's gonna look like, now we're gonna need to go and scrap all of that again to do it for real."

As I said prototyping circa 1999.

You said "web design circa 1999". If your only problem with the actual design is the color (and these specific colors were requested, as was the layout), then your problem isn't with the design.

It will not have to be made from scratch, some PHP would be added to the current files, and they would be renamed with a ".php" extension. Considering the going rates for websites, BTC1 is pretty good for a template, even if it were horrible.
