Does anybody find it weird that technologies like mp3, napster, torrent, bitcoin are almost always invented in the US where you get thrown in Jail if you don't pay your taxes or use pirated software, in other words, where the law is too strict?

Classic rage against the machine reaction.

Fucking hell, CW is a total & utter loser. He should have been splattered on his Mum’s face.

I see we disagree heavily,  my main goal is to give people a baseline like an UBI.  We are missing out on a lot of potential by people stuck in poverty that go through extreme stress and are never able to achieve anything great.  I believe everyone should at least have their basics met: education, healthcare, housing, food.

You are rich right? Go do that with your money and shut the fuck up about how the rest of us use ours.

There is only so much one person can do.  Don't you realize crime and violence happens mostly because of poverty.  I'm a bad person for wanting to make the world a better place?

Nope, crime and violence happens mostly because of genetics, with a little nurture on top.

Also environment. High levels of inequality with no way to personally advance also contributes. Quite a lot.

That would be the nurture on top.

No, that's environment. It's different. Words mean things and it is a different word. It's right there, see how that works?

No Ibian, the idiom is "nature versus nurture"

"The nature versus nurture debate is one of the oldest philosophical issues within psychology. So what exactly is it all about?

Nature refers to all of the genes and hereditary factors that influence who we are—from our physical appearance to our personality characteristics.
Nurture refers to all the environmental variables that impact who we are, including our early childhood experiences, how we were raised, our social relationships, and our surrounding culture."

Words mean things and It's right there, see how that works?

Physical reality trumps idioms. Behavior is, mostly, genetics plus environment. Nurture, what we call raising kids, is part of the environment. Another part is just how Venezuelaed is the economy?

You really don't know what in idiom is, do you.

And also, it's"Nurture refers to all the environmental variable" not the other way around as you claim in "Nurture, what we call raising kids, is part of the environment."

Nurture is literally whatever you do with your kids. You, yourself, are only a small part of the environment. Your idiom is wrong.

I think sticking to the definition agreed upon by the profession when talking about a subject is preferable to making up your own definitions. It helps a lot if everybody speaks the same language.

And an idiom can't be wrong, you still don't get what an idiom is do you.

Depending on the authorities in question, sometimes. But consider how racism has been redefined. They say it's prejudice plus power, which means that only white men can be racist. When in reality it's just plain ol hate.

Socialism too. An accurate description of the phenomenon is simply, forced redistribution of wealth. They deliberately complicate things for the sake of obfuscation.

I’ve seen that beard before, think it came through the glory hole. Only joking man, hope you’ve enjoyed your day & lunch. Good to put a face (sort of) to the username. Enjoy the rest of your day with the Mrs

I’ve heard purple things are on sale at Ann Summers.

You can post your desired pics here for community voting, I guess that will help for you too.

I am still too far for a hat but I always dream I will wear that someday too here.

Gentlemen, what do you think which of these pictures would look better on a hat?

For starters all haul trucks and excavators are going electric (better torque, far less maintenance) so the price of diesel is irrelevant you dinosaur.  

Nice.  You believe in 18 wheeler trucks run by batteries that take as much space as the truck's entire hauling capacity...or more.  If you were actually in the mining industry, you would also know there is no way in fucking hell you are running any of these enormous vehicles on batteries.  The tires on these things are the size of a house.  

nuclear fusion and nano technology could solve these kind of problems.  Nuclear fusion could generate the sufficiant force to move this trunk and nano technology will reduce the size. Lockheed martin is actually working on this technology, UE are also working on an experiment project called ITER to create a fusion reactor that will allow to produce electricity. the first step will be mastering this technology then the general use.

JPMorgan unveils first bank-backed 'JPM Coin' cryptocurrency

https://bitcoinist.com/jpmorgan-jpm-coin-cryptocurrency/

https://www.coindesk.com/jpmorgan-moving-its-in-house-crypto-to-real-world-trials-report

"Called JPM Coin, the token has been developed by engineers at the bank, according to a report from CNBC on Thursday, and is moving to real world trials in “a few months”

For the effort, JPM Coin will be used to settle a small portion of its transactions between clients of its wholesale payments business in real time, CNBC says. The bank moves over $6 trillion daily as part of that business, it adds.

Speaking to the news source, Umar Farooq, JPMorgan’s blockchain lead, posited three main use cases for the bank token, including replacing wire transfers for international payments by large corporate clients and cutting settlement times from days to just moments.

It could also be used to provide instant settlement for securities issuances, as well as to replace U.S. dollars at held internatinally by subsidiaries of major corporations using JPMorgan’s treasury services."

Just accidentally clicked on page 1 and saw a load of price wall related posts - was a bit surprised

[JayJuanGee]

Shitcoins were already anticipated by satoshi, especially in terms of their attempt to imitate, copy and take over, and even if satoshi did not spell out every possible way that shitcoins would be employed as attack vectors

Shitty JayJuanGee argument appeal to authority that bitcoin was created by God himself, is perfect in every manner, can't die even though it uses a completely arbitrary design with no objectively good traits, and can't be inferior or useless to something someone else creates because it was in fact made by God.  I've noticed just about every dumb JayJuanGee argument uses this false supposition.  

Looks like you don't even understand the concept of appeal to authority - because I have not done so in the reference posts or any other posts.  All I had been suggesting in my earlier post was that satoshi already accounted for shitcoin copy cats.. so we neither have a surprise here nor a lack of a btc schelling point that you were lamely attempting to argue.

I use the term "God" metaphorically here, but using batshit stupid JayJuanGee logic, physical metals were in fact created by "God" and thus have to be perfect,

I am not saying anything like that about PMs, you fucking diptwat.  First this thread is about bitcoin, so PMs are only secondarily relevant, if at all, when you are attempting to make a connection. Second, you have been trying to irrelevantly make such PM pump, so you are the one who has the burden to show that PMs are going to be a good hedge in the future. I don't have any such burden to show PMs are bad, and I am not attempting to make such an argument with any kind of conviction - even though I have asserted that it is likely that there is no reason to hold them as a hedge against the dollar and various dollar shenanigans when bitcoin largely seems to supplanted such necessity.  I personally hold zero PMs, but I could see reasonably that some folks, even BTC holders might want to hold 1% to 5% of their holdings in PMs - but like I said, BTC already serves such dollar hedging purpose, so seems a bit like a BIG ASS waste of effort to be trying to secure, store and lug around such PM assets when BTC is superior in several ways.. especially in terms of its portability, sever-ability, cost of storage/secure transfer and verification of authenticity.

while Satoshi is obviously a false god and not a real one - a deceiver. So, metals therefore are the real perfect creation and all digital shitcoins are the altcoin scam.

That is some real gobbledy-gook that you spouted out there, and does not even seem worthy of a response except to reiterate that your lame attempt at putting forth a religious narrative theme is quite in left field.... and you might want to reign in your phony baloney a little bit, otherwise your handlers might not want to pay you for your ongoing troll/shill efforts.

This letter is an official statement from the Trezor team about the recent phishing attacks.

https://blog.trezor.io/a-message-for-our-community-about-recent-phishing-attacks-b6fc77fdb0b6

I noticed that they list authorized resellers, and even though the list is decently long, such list of authorized resellers does limit the suggested locations in order to feel a decent level of confidence in the security of the product that you get.

A surprising thing about security, an attacker could wait several years before executing the attack.... 

I hate the fact that some products might be more expensive when they have to go through official channels, but in the cas of storing bitcoin value, it could be well worth the extra 20%... so instead of paying $100 in a more open market, you may have to pay $120 in order to go through a recommended dealer.. something like that. 

I actually had an incident with one of my phones that I bought used, and later, I was thinking that it just might not be worth it to get my phone through an unauthorized channel, even though I may have to pay double.  Kind of sucks, but security is important in a world that hackers have such a considerably great incentive to get into your stuff and make irreversible transactions (costs of being your own bank are not low).

Bitcoin daily average block size hits a new all time high of 1.3MB
https://www.longhash.com/news/bitcoin-blocks-reach-alltime-high-of-13-mb



"Bitcoin’s daily average block size made a new all time high recently at 1.3 MB per block. This is made possible by certain BTC scaling solutions like SegWit, as well as continued demand for the network.

Just three months ago, Bitcoin blocks were only 1.2 MB in size, and six months ago Bitcoin blocks were 1.1 MB in size. With SegWit adoption recently hitting all-time highs, Bitcoin is continuing to accommodate more transactions while keeping network fees near all-time lows.

Continued efficiency in packaging on-chain transactions is only one of Bitcoin’s recent accomplishments. Off-chain transactions on Lightning Network are also continuing to grow rapidly, as Lightning Network development begins to bear fruit in the form of early consumer applications and games.

The recent release of Satoshi.Games and the pre-alpha launch of the Lightning Labs mobile application are both positive signs for Bitcoin scaling and adoption."
