A: Was I talking to you?
B: Why are you trying to be a dick?
You were talking to all of us who read this thread. I am not being a dick. Just being intellectually honest. You tried insulting me by calling my unexceptional, without knowing a thing about me. And tried peacocking and telling everyone what a great swinger you are with the all ladies. Mmmkay... how about intellectually, honestly, fucking off? |

Meh..I disagree completely. I have been divorced now for 10 years after 17 years of a mostly wonderful marriage, I have 3 beautiful children and a solid relationship with my ex that I would not trade for the world. Marriage and life are what you make of it. If you put a negative connotation on something it will most likely be that in reality. Just a thought.
Yeah, but you have to realize that your relationship with your ex is the exception and not the rule. Most men get royally screwed over by the ex-wives, both during the whole rotten, depressing marriage and then afterward. Sounds like you didn't. Also sounds like you had substantial disposable income to spend on your teenage daughters, and a willingness to do it. Very antithesis to what most men have post-divorce. I'm not going to say you are wrong Torque, even with the use of the word "most". I am, however, going to point out that there are very divergent norms in different subcultures. In my peer group, while nearly all former couples have moved on from their procreative pair bonds, the norm is of friendship and cooperation in the remaining child rearing responsibilities...but then I tend to hang out with grown ups. |

Speaking of Bitcoin, who the hell voted for another leg down in the poll. I didn't approve of this. Bob?  |

I don't mean to make a big issue out of this specifically, but your peer group is the rest of your country. Nobody does well in Venezuela. |

Hey here's a suggestion. Instead of reading statistics and asking questions of us on this forum, why don't you start asking questions of yourself? Like, for instance, "how the hell can I become a better person, smarter, healthier, less fearful, more entertaining, more positive and more of the type of person I would be in an ideal world."
Nah, forget all that shit. Just move to Thailand. Beautiful young women go crazy for us fat old dudes. |

You are absolutely right about my "unexceptional" comment seemingly directed at you. It was not fair or kind. I imagine you are mostly likely exceptional in many ways. But spouting off tired stereotypes about divorce makes you seem very unexceptional in that category, although I don't know anything about you in that category for certain. |

That's a rough deal. If you are in the states then she will change to whatever degree by the culture. And if you are over in the flips then... well, have you ever been to the harbor in Manila? |

Never really thought about it before today. I'd hate to part with half my corns for no good reason, that's for sure. But I was a totally different person back then. |

So you cede that these issues exist. Great.
Did my reply imply as much? I don't think they are issues - that's why I was asking. After bitserve, fluidjax too pointed out the meaninglessness of focusing on 51% attacks as segwit-specific attack vectors. Fungibility isn't a real issue, either - still IMHO. As SW transactions become the majority, only old or newborn coins will be left in your Type 1 (coins that were never touched by a SW transaction). Besides, LN acts as a kind of giant mega-tumbler. If/when LN really gets into widespread use, it will only help fungibility rather than undermine it. Segwit isn't flawed all of Jbrehere arguments are all flawed Typical Bcasher's echo chamber. |
