Is it the scrabble shIeeeet or the other sheeeeIt what is counting as the real bob’s sh......t??

Honestly speaking it's boring 😉

I have often visited the beautiful city of the Medici, it is wonderful.

It was of course also the birthplace of the great renaissance thinker Niccolo Machiavelli.

He is often quoted on how men should be judged on the company they keep, but here is something all here will probably agree with:

“It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones. ”

Satoshi knew this, which is why he chose anonymity.

She is also doing the WO sign, very suspicious

She’s part of the WO gang.
She’s breaking the systmem from inside to send Fiat to collapse and gain on her true BTC investments.
I would say she already did a pretty good job in Argentina, let’s see what she’s going to do In Europe now.

Remember when the goal was to get 21BTC, which surely would put any of those folks who had been able to HODL onto that amount as being in a very decent position at $100k per coin, and now there are a lot of meme-ing around the random 6.15BTC goal, which seems to rely on BTC going much higher than $100k per coin in order to really be comfortable.

I guess that part of my point is that amount of BTC goals are going down and down and down.  Of course, we have those who are either with a mediocre budget or are just getting in striving to get to 1BTC and more.  There have surely been some of those folks participating in this thread.  At some point, we are going to have peeps aspiring to get 1 million satoshis... or whatever other reasonable amount becomes our new deflationary goalpost point.

The shining.
Opening sequence.
Only movie I saw after reading the book didn't left me disappointed.

So sorry to hear about your dog machasm.

A big thanks to all of you for the condolences, it's truly heartwarming.

To make a short story long.

16 years ago a small and hungry, but tame and human socialized cat appeared on my doorstep and wanted food.
I let him in and fed him, I would then let him sleep at my place when he was not out playing. This turned in to a ritual where he would go out in the morning when I woke up, and in the evening I would whistle and he would come home and eat/sleep.
One morning a female cat sat outside waiting for him, it turned out he had a girlfriend. The girlfriend was a bit afraid of humans, you could only get within about three meters before she started to retreat. I let her live in my garage. They were a true couple, something I have never seen in cats before. Every morning she would wait for him and they would go of and spend the day together, and part in the evening when he jumped in through my window.
One day, after about a year or so, the little male didn't come when I whistled, I don't know what happened to him but there are a lot of dangers for reckless cats in the country side, and he was a very reckless cat.

The female however stayed on and I would feed her in the garage daily. One cold winter day when I opened my window, she jumped up on the window sill, for some reason she had decided that I wasn't dangerous and decided to trust me, I let her in the warm house.
After about an hour or so she was again sitting on the window sill, meowing, asking to be let out. I let her out.
This too became a routine after a while, and after a couple of weeks I heard her meowe outside the window, and when I opened she introduced me to four black and white kittens, They had children.
She lived in my garage with her kittens during winter and spring, it was two females and two males, One cold day in February one of the males got run over by a car (I live just some 8-10 meters from a country road with 70km /h speed limit).

End of spring/early summer I persuaded a young woman who had and still have a horse in my neighbors stable to take two of the kittens, she took the two females.
By now she was used to be in my house, (the cat, not the woman) and one day I let the door stay open for a while, and she came walking in with the remaining kitten. After that moment they both lived in my house.
The remaining kitten was shy and a bit unused to humans, but as time went by he got used to me.
The female cat would go out in the morning and come back in the evening, just like her boyfriend before her.

She was a funny cat and liked to show of when I was outside with her. She would all of a sudden start climbing high trees and make long jumps and other stuff, sometimes she would give me dead mice, neatly placed in a row next to each other, she was a darling.
Unfortunately, after about a year, she too was run over.
Now only the kitten, who was now a cat teenager, remained.
I decided to keep him indoors, and he seemed just fine with that, he was lazy, overweight, a bit afraid of things and never showed any will to go outside.
The overweight started already when he was breastfeeding, long after the other kittens stopped feeding, he would remain sucking, and that was a pattern he kept up all his life.

14 years later I'm sitting upstairs by my computer reading the WO thread and I hear him making strange noises at the bottom of the stairs. I go and look and he is on his back kicking wildly, after a short while he calms down and lays still, breathing heavy. I pick him up and carry him in to my bed where he comes to and after a while hops down and carries on like nothing happened.
Some time before that he had started loosing weight, he would still eat, but he wasn't as eager as before.

I thought at first that he might have slipped and fallen down the stairs and hit his head, but two months later, when he was sleeping in my bedroom I'm awakened by the same noise, and there he is, having a seizure on the floor, it was short and he seemed alright afterwards. I thought that maybe it was just some residual damage from the slip in the stairs.
But as time went by, he would get a seizure about every month and the last month he started getting them every week, and then the last days daily, and that's when I realized that he probably had a brain tumor or something like that.
So I made arrangements, I loaded my Ruger 22 LR revolver, prepared a plastic box with a blanket and had my hearing protection near by.
By now, yesterday,  he had two seizures a day and I was sitting by the computer waiting for the next one (he was sleeping in my bed). Somewhere around two o clock in the night I hear the by now familiar sounds, I go in to the bedroom and holds him lightly while he kicks in the air, and when he stops kicking and starts going in to the unconscious faze that he has after the kicking and before waking up, I quickly put him in the box, carried him outside, put the gun to hos head and fired twice.
He kicked wildly for a short while and then it was all over.
I took him in and cleaned him up a bit and let the other two cats sniff him and understand that he was gone.
Today I have put him in a new plastic box witch will be his coffin.

We never really bonded, that cat and I, he was more like a room mate, but nevertheless we liked each others company, and he liked to jump up onto my bed and be rubbed on the belly when it was time to go to sleep, when I turned out the lights he would go and sleep in a cat basket or by the very end of my bed.

And that is the story about the cat named Ponken (little boy). He had a good life.

Just had a lovely walk and found these little buggers





Nice

Couldn't agree more. Back in 2013 when I first got into Bitcoin, I did it because it seemed like a good investment.

Because it was an investment, I would worry about my buy in price, I always wanted to maximise my profit and of course regretted missing bottoms here and there and wish I allocated more of my investment stash.

For the last few years my attitude has completely changed, assisted by the drop in rates by my home country's CB I now view Bitcoin for what it actually is. Not an investment, but as a savings vehicle, I am saving for my retirement and my children's future and I do that not with a savings account, but with Bitcoin.

For years the central bank and my government has been destroying my savings through corruption and inflation, not any more, all my excess income now goes straight into bitcoin and will stay there forever. And that's how you do bitcoin people. It's not an investment, it's a savings vehicle. Strong hands forever.

Who sold at the top?

<whistling>....

Yeah sure....

Why are you making jokes about vegeta? Is it because it's from my community croatia?

10/15' of pleasant reading.

I had a couple transactions come back to me in 2017.... so I am not sure what can cause that because I did not do anything besides attempting to send and getting a pending transaction that ended up coming back to my wallet.
