"Wasteful" but necessary security investments: 1. Door locks 2. Bank vaults 3. Security cameras/personnel 4. Police/Military 5. Regulatory agencies 6. Trade reconciliation 7. Cold storage rooms 8. Bitcoin's PoW Before you dismiss the last one, convince me you can dismiss the rest https://twitter.com/bobmcelrath/status/1106679539806232578?s=21

It really is disappointing reading dumb racist shit on a BTC forum. The contrast between such brilliant technology built to cross over and even tear down boundaries on the one side, and the small mindedness on the other is just shockingly large. How these people can entertain both realities is a mystery to me. Get the fuck out of your basements and go out and meet people you ignorant racist fucks!
I disagree on this. I think a new and brilliant technology invites all sorts of crazy and it benefits from the crazy people. I read the WO thread everyday because of this reason. I have nobody on ignore because I find all these kinds of different perspectives super interesting. I wouldn't want to read the WO thread if it gets heavily censored. Let people like r0ach and Ibian make racists remarks who cares, let Bob posts pics of green dildo's, let JJG write up super long paragraphs. This is what makes this thread the best place on this forum. Like the famous Apple commercial: Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.

If we can hold this, we have broken the back of the bear market.
Much to early but I like where your going with this...tell us more. Major technical victory to the bulls today. For the second time since ATH, we have broken the bear line (other time was at $6k during the great flattening). If we can just keep tracking sideways from here, we clear away from the bear line and the downward pressure since $20k evaporates.  uhhhhh stamp data, log scale, puts the bear line at 42

Racism and wishing death on children is fucking dumb as a bag of rocks though. Green dildos and meandering diatribes don't fall in the same category as blatant evil. I do agree with you about the "heavily censored" part, though. And that's what the ignore button is for -- individualized censorship preferences.

Not one pi was observed yesterday..for shame on you all...or at least a few of you anyway.  Today after logging in most of the pages I am looking at appear like this. It seems my work here is done.  #stronghands Merited for pie day. But cute little self-induced echo chamber there. And he dares talk about objectivity.  Edit: Also Hawking's death day and Einstein's birthday for those who were unaware. The universe works in mysterious ways. Someone merit this man.
It’s done, my child. Thank you very much.

I agree they do not fall in the same category. But we are all WO participants, we all fall in that "category". Racist remarks and wishing death on people, meh who cares? We humans have been killing each other for thousands of years, that isn't going to change anytime soon. If people get offended by their posts, go get your emotions in check, they are just words on a forum. We are on a Bitcoin forum, we need to learn to master our emotions in order to gain more sweet and delicious corn! Someone merit this man.

What is a fuckyoucoiner?  Something you have to find out for yourself. My take on it: a certain amount of Bitcoin which will transform you into someone who buys or does anything what he or she wants. In a fuckyou kind of style. Without having to care about your financial future. It's not even racism. Muslims are not a race, idiots.
Fair enough

We are on a Bitcoin forum, we need to learn to master our emotions in order to gain more sweet and delicious corn! What a way to tie back into Bitcorn and speak sense at the same time. Emotions are an important aspect of life though and we would be ill-advised to discard them entirely. They're the other side of the coin and need to be balanced out with reason. Similarly going overboard with reason is a poor idea as well. You can reason your way into anything you want, not matter how grotesque. Without both reason and emotion things tilt off to the extremes. I'm sure I don't have to point out who in this thread tilts too hard towards reason and who tilts too hard towards emotion at times. We all know who we are. The question is what we make of it.
