@ iCEBREAKER Have you considered relaxation?
Christ enough with the censorship already...and this is icebreaker on relax mode dude, you will know when the hull gets breached and he opens up on you. Apparently you madam are fairly new to bitcointalk. This is extremely tame compared to the usual psychosis, if you don't like the naughty words you certainly won't like it when the threats, all out brawls and doxxing madness goes down.
Hay, I have no issue with free speech, that's why I am willing to challenge at times. Also, I like a laugh and can take a ribbing too but, I have friends that just can't handle this sort of space and we are pushing some real bright people away. There are plenty of threads that you can say fu*k & sh!t and stuff like that as many times as you like all over this board.
However, Crypto will go mainstream and we need to be at the front end of that. Having a space where you can come for info and an environment where outsiders feel confident enough to ask questions without worry of ridicule is important. Especially at a time where the ethereum community is divided.
Anyhow, I want PoW but then we lose the PoS people and they usualy have money to invest. So if we go for a combination we will pick up the miners that drop off the other chain when casper arrives and get some whales too.
But we want to hear from everyone
@tyler LMFAO. 23,000 ton/25,000 horsepower icebreakers may lack nuance, but make up for it in terms of ability to disrupt frozen processes such as calcified groupthink, thus clearing safe passage for the flow of new ideas and perspectives.
As for a hull breach, good luck with that.
The Arktika is a double-hulled icebreaker; the outer hull is 48 mm (1.89 in) thick, the inner 25 mm (0.98 in) thick, with the space in between utilized for water ballasting. At the strongest point, the cast steel prow is 50 cm (19 ¾ in) thick
@greenie
There is friendly, safe space for crypto-noobies. It's called Reddit. And for the really bright, there is StackExchange.
OTOH, this is BITCOINTALK. It is the enthusiastically/infamously adversarial crucible through with only the best crypto may pass with its dignity left intact. Can't take the heat, stay out the kitchen. Think of this forum as Arrakis, where Satoshi trains His faithful. The carcinogenic toxicity is our local equivalent of the Gom Jabbar.
Since all ETC's options are to some degree contentious, I also prefer to go with the least contentious thing that could possibly work (Because KISS).
But the only thing that matters is who ships splendidly working immaculate code first, so Charlie Hos' ETC2 hybrid project may beat Casper to the finish line.
Cheers to you for being able to take a ribbing and keep on ticking. You'll fit right in and be helping us haze outsiders in no time!
