1261  Other / Off-topic / Can dice or coin be used to accurately predict the future? on: September 10, 2021, 04:48:28 PM
Let's say you want to know the "right unknown" through coin flipping... for example, you ask in your heart whether it will rain tommorow or not, and then represent one side of the coin with Yes answer and the other Side with No, what is the chance that you will get the right answer when the coin is flipped randomly?

In my opinion, and as a religious person, I think you will likely always get the right answer if you depend on GOD to give you the answer, but you have to be qualified to receive answer from HIM.  According to the scripture, HE doesnt listen to certain people (sinners). So, you'll need to be qualified to rely on that.
If this is the case, we could conclude that certain people shouldn't use lottery or dice to determine the truth because it probably won't be accurate.





*Hope people don't use this to test our CREATOR. You (esp believers) can only do it when it's absolutely necessary/needed. Testing HIM is not good.
1262  Other / Off-topic / Re: GOOD THINGS COMES TO THOSE THAT WAIT on: September 10, 2021, 04:08:26 PM
Well, people living according to the Will of GOD shouldn't be bothered about this things because they will always come to them that they wouldn't have to struggle one bit for their daily bread. Just live according to HIS Will and you will be shocked what happens regularly. All provisions have been made for those within the Will of the CREATOR.

*Hope you change the Wits in that verse to wait

It takes a while to drinking after the vaccine!I will be greedy!
Well, good for you man. In the country where I reside, folks would rather "die" than get vaccinated. You can't blame them, the level of trust between the government and her citizenry is next to zero. Over here, its mostly some frontline health workers and top ranking government officials and some rich folks who are getting vaccinated.


They have good reasons to be worried. People have actually died from vaccine complications, which they probably didn't suffer before getting vaccinated. That alone is enough to be careful and can be used as legitimate reason not to get the vaccine. I hope they stick with safe alternative to vaccine so  others can feel safe around them.
1264  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin——the intermediary for the interaction between human and alien on: September 10, 2021, 10:23:44 AM
If by aliens you mean evil entities who live above & below, who are lusting after our beautiful World Created for us by a good CREATOR, Ofcourse they exist, but they desperately want to breech the barrier protecting Earth in order to take full control of this World.
Meanwhile they are currently being prevented by our CREATOR and won't be able to get in.

They are not coming because they love humans. They desperately need to harvest souls and take advantage of this world .

When they come they will still be subjected to the True OWNER of this world and wont dare cross boundaries marked for them, including how they use Bitcoin.    Will they be able to take over a decentralized Bitcoin and its consensus? I have thought about it in the past and concluded that they can only do that if they are able to completely possess the humans network participants. This is when reputation and honesty of those who run the network would become really important. Thankfully, honest network participation and reputation are in line with Bitcoin Ideals.


1265  Other / Off-topic / It's better to let the ignorants know the truth of what's going on in the world on: September 10, 2021, 09:47:39 AM
They will likely seek for salvation... That is basically how I got saved, Immediately I knew what was coming, I became really afraid and realized that men (mere mortals) can't help me, then I relied on our CREATOR and got saved.

This is what will happen when "The Red" is given power to continue. It will force lots of people to seek a true SAVIOR once they see the evil.

I have always wondered what the blue pill meant until I recently discovered it was to keep in people ignorance of the happenings around them...(ignorance is bliss). That's is a very bad idea that I wouldn't even wish for my love ones. Let them know the truth and Truth shall set them free.
1266  Other / Off-topic / Re: Parking phobia on: September 10, 2021, 09:35:25 AM
Depends on how strict the parking rules are where you want to park, or are you worried you may be seen as incompetent driver?
Maybe you should have someone teach you what to do when you encounter such situations, you should have options and know easy & right decisions to take incase you find it challenging park. This should help you become more confident in your parking and driving abilities
1267  Economy / Economics / Re: Ways to avoid being scammed!!! on: September 10, 2021, 09:13:37 AM
I've notice an increase in scam complaint on my feed on a particular site , I wonder why? Are people getting scammed frequently thesedays?
I'm not sure I've been scammed on the internet  in that manner (through baits) and the scammers succeeding in taking away my money. I've always been extremely careful dealing with people especially online and that made me to avoid transactions on the internet with anyone even though there are some genuine opportunities to earn money and do good honest/good deals with people.   It's shocking how people easily try to scam others on the internet without serious consequences. An attempt to scam people shouldn't be ignored by security agencies... They shouldn't wait until people are scammed before arresting the scammers.

In regards to the wifi part, I think that should be mostly for public wifi. If you are connecting to public wifi you are likely exposing yourself to scammers unless it's a super secured wifi and yo properly secure yourself before using the wifi

1268  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is the use of encrypted email and VPN is very useful? on: September 09, 2021, 04:43:50 PM
Useful in terms of your online privacy and safety? Assuming it's about your privacy/safety,i think it depends on who runs the VPN services, how secure and well protected the VPNs by laws/government.
If VPN users are doing nothing immoral, the secured and licensed ones should be enough in my opinion
1269  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The introduction of NFT has made the world become selfish, called it adoption on: September 09, 2021, 04:08:38 PM
The rise of Non-fungible tokens and because of the large sums of money involved, the originality of artwork into NFTs has captivated everyone's interest, they call it adoption since they could easily use the corporate influence to produce paintings and auction them at a high price for art lovers, they call that an adoption, isn't that awkward and betraying?
This demonstrates that these firms only go where there is free money to be had from their consumers,  and I continue to find NFT uninteresting.
They are working hard to promote NFT as a trend, but I believe it is overhyped.

Lots of the people involved in it are mostly interested in making quick money, I haven't seen any useful NFT yet.
 It's hard to get people to do the right thing when money becomes their main priority. Wish people will be made to earn money based on how much problem they solve, how well the problems are solve and how many people benefit from the solutions
.. that should make them create things that are useful and good/safe for people..

1270  Economy / Economics / Re: After 1 year of Covid 19 Virus on: September 09, 2021, 03:15:00 PM
Way too much hope has been put into the vaccines with no backup plans whatsoever. That makes me deeply uncomfortable but maybe I'm just being paranoid  Undecided


When you try solutions that "worked" in the past today without taking other important factors into consideration, you are bound to fail. 
Won't be surprised if other drugs that used to work in the past begin to fail too because the makers failed to factor in the complexity and changing dynamics of world/nature.
1271  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why privacy matters on: September 09, 2021, 10:30:53 AM
It is because most of the stable coins are centralized and only a few are decentralized. And making one of these is different from the usual.

Aside from being decentralized, it also offers privacy and that's why I'm quite surprised.
That's exactly what surprised me also. Everything on the crypto market looks similar to each other and nothing new appears. So I will also look after this coin as if it's really private and stable - it's a new step in crypto industry. Keeping earnings anonymously with 1:1 rate to US dollar amy be a great decision.
Yes, you're right. Only one important point remains - the recognition of the coin by the crypto community and its wide popularity. Without an active audience, the project will have no value.
While we were discussing the new coin from Utopia p2p, it's main Crypton coin reached 31K active nodes already. This number amazed me as that's a really big amount. Even in comparison with top coins, some of which has twice less number.




Interesting
But I  wonder if the developers can use the "Cryptocurrency" in a society they built themselves without compromising on important ideals like Trustlessness, Permissionless, etc

I think if you are creating a cryptocurrency and compromise on any of its most important ideal/principle, you run into problems and that cryptocurrency will likely not be safe to use in any community/society existing in dangerous times
1272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Question regarding the role of miners vs nodes in securing the network on: September 09, 2021, 10:07:48 AM
The 51% attack shouldn't be possible without all participants involved in running and taking part in network consensus... I sometimes wonder what happened at that particular point in time when miners became more powerful than all participants to the extent of having the ability to attack the network with higher hash power.
I think 51% of all network participants should have that kind of power to change things. That will likely make attack more difficult especially if you have clear rules how the power can be used by 51%.

Well, Bitcoin isn't perfect, I have noticed vulnerabilities that can be exploited but they're few compare to other cryptos I know about well. Infact it's probably the only true cryptocurrency as far I can tell, because it's well built (according to worlds standard), with principled developers.
1273  Economy / Economics / Re: @Deloitte: "The fiat currency will be gone in 5 to 10 years". on: September 09, 2021, 09:15:40 AM
Wonder which form of fiat the @Deloi.. is talking about, the physical, digital/virtual fiat currencies or both the physical and digital?
I think whoever the people of that time sees as their government will most likely control their currency especially in centralized manner.
So, if you end up with single world government, it will have ultimate control over the centralized currency/currencies.
It will be difficult for the entity/govt on Bitcoin unless it centralizes it which will be really hard for them at this point. Red line has been drawn, will they dare cross it? Bitcoin should remain a neutral currency and we should be able to print and use it on physical things when necessary.
Will fiat currency still remain by then? Well it depends on the definition fiat currency.

1274  Other / Off-topic / Re: Growth Process on: September 08, 2021, 04:39:37 PM
A lot of people don't know what it means to grow a lot people think that growth of 0-100 can happen in two months, 3 months. The problem is that people have unrealistic expectations of life,This is why they lose in life and never really reach financial freedom. Growth is like this. You moved from an uncomfortable room to a room apartment,
* Then you moved to a room and parlour
*Then you steadily moved to a 2/3 bedroom
*Then you moved to a duplex
*Then a mansion


If you grow in that manner make sure you have enough money to fund and sustain the growth. I typically don't like growing things that won't be profitable....more like things that can't fund themselves without me taking money from my profitable businesses to keep them funded.
I will likely stop at Room and Palour unless I need to expand the house for people/things to dwell in and be fruitful. I tend to believe it's selfish to live in large home that benefits you alone.
Being fruitful means you live mostly for others. A tree bear its fruit for other creatures to consume
1275  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Interview session with store owner accepting bitcoin... on: September 08, 2021, 04:15:45 PM
Well, this needs to be sustainable. I prefer recommending people to rely on some sort of autonomous businesses built around crypto economy and do not rely too much on government infrastructures/system to thrive... Or people could accept crypto if they are offered some as gift, or if they are getting rewarded in Crypto for services that require voluntary payments.
 I think this is still early though. I see potential problems ahead if the right things are not done
1276  Other / Off-topic / Re: Need Advice on: September 08, 2021, 02:54:41 PM
If she is really depressed and not something else, she would simply need to become a born-again and be covered/shielded by Our Invisible LORD known as JESUS CHRIST. Sheep must detached themselves from evil things of this world and avoid being influenced by them. This is becoming my only option left to recommend to people in this time. Earth covering is weakening and this world is approaching the pit which is full evil like diseases, depression, (I don't even want to mention what people who aren't covered already will feel as this world drift close to very dangerous place.) Anyone who believes in our LORD will certainly be saved from the evil. I keep praying for everyone to repent and be blessed with the covering.

Are those three things you listed what the country is trying to do currently? What was the 'Baba owner warned about?
In regards to the third one, wonder what they mean by "public success"... Well, as long the success is not taken away from those who achieve it..

Donations should ofcourse be voluntary, or do you think there is an agenda behind the second? Maybe it has hidden terms?
1278  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin become Multivac? on: September 08, 2021, 09:57:02 AM
Well, the AI will need lots of private data from users to be able to do that and that can't be easy for it because it's against Bitcoin principles of privacy/anonymity. I however think that that sort of AI will succeed on centralized systems with Weak privacy which is typically what centralized system are known for.
If we keep Bitcoin well decentralized and privacy friendly it will be really hard for rogue AI to succeed on the Network. AI understanding users properly basically contradicts Bitcoin decentralization and privacy/anonymity features.

By the way, Bitcoin transparency doesn't mean AI can have access to people's private data to spy on. It mostly help users to monitor the network for evil activities from things like rogue AI. So, I hope it remains transparent without compromising on people's privacy/anonymity


So, whoever exposes users data to AI is seriously crossing the line and going against Bitcoin Ideals.  Users data should be protected and controlled by the users. I hope it becomes easier for most users to run full nodes and benefit from that features


1279  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are ghosts real? :o on: September 08, 2021, 09:09:55 AM
I believe ghosts and spirits are real as my friends and family had experiences but they don't actually appear like movies do.

There's this one time my father was eating in the kitchen when somebody turned off the lights. He was mad at my mom because  he thought my mom did it but she didn't. No one did.  It was scary. It happened around 1 am. I also had experiences.

Ghost do exist.










Ofcourse, they have their limit on physical world and they are evil spirits.
Better not to watch the ghost videos atall if you don't want to attract them to yourself. They feed on fear and ignorance. And they can't move things physically like it's shown in videos.

I used to think they can move things like it's shown on YouTube but I was told by the LORD that those youtubers are decievers used by principalities and powers.
Avoid such videos.
Here is something important people need to know, when you watch porn, you are inviting spirit of lust to live in you and spy on you. If you watch those ghost videos, you are inviting the spirit associated with it to dwell in you and take advantage of you.

1280  Other / Off-topic / Re: After death we can back again in this world? on: September 07, 2021, 04:26:12 PM
Nobody knows what leads us in the afterlife. Some believed that we reincarnate and some don't. In my own beliefs and religion when people die they go to the place where they belong and that is "HEAVEN and HELL". I believe in God and everything is written in the bible.

To be precise, all our questions about the afterlife would all be answered once we die. Life is short and time is gold for now enjoy what you have and enjoy life as much as possible because we wouldn't know when we actually die.

It will be hard to make it to the good side if we don't live the right kind of life which most people aren't.

Anyone who knows the truth will quickly have pity for humanity for abandoning the free gift from their CREATOR and chasing after things that do not matter. I would compare this to a people who had great and beautiful possessions from their parents but lost them and start wandering around looking for food to pick from refuge dump. They have forgotten they were once great people who fell due to sin.

I recommend knowing the parable of a man who found a pearl and sold all he has to acquire it. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew 13:45-46&version=KJV

Anyone who uncover the mystery of the pearl will likely sell all he/she has to have it. Imagine a device you can ask for anything good and it does it for you. The device actually made our world and it's not difficult to find. It's everywhere but people don't know it's great value.
