Chickens 'gang up' to kill intruder fox on French farm

 If I were that farmer I'd be shaking in my boots.  Those chickens have tasted blood and he's next.

Been just lurking lately, pondering the 2015 fractal and crunching an analysis of it a little.  Well, that and getting on with RL.

Will go back to lurking a while, but still keeping tabs on this occasionally wonderful place.

Long live the WO, warts and all.

Oh, and GTFO JJG?

BitcoinTalk Lost A Third Of Its Users In February

https://www.ccn.com/bitcointalk-lost-a-third-of-its-users-in-february

"The BitcoinTalk forum lost a third of its referrals from the bitcoin community in February, according to available traffic data from website analytics firm SimilarWeb."



And yet roach is still here... 

There are multiple reasons.

1) The bear market. Basically, people lost interest in crypto.

2) The new merit system. Many of us got our legendary hero ranks before this new system and Many of us would still got so many merits and become legendaries in the new system too but newbies are very afraid of it. Most of them simply don't care about posting quality content anymore. Just spam and go.

3) No more good sig camps. And the requirements for the existing ones are very high so again, newcomers don't like it. All newb accounts are spamming ICO crap.

The major reason is the bear market probably.

Bitcoin lost more than half of its ATH value so losing only 1/3 of the forum members/activity is kinda success. Could have been worse.

4) centralization by moderators.
5) accusation
6) Porn, drugs .. etc

When did number 6 join the party, apparently I'm blind.

Looks like you have some people (micgoossens, lfc, Gayjuangee) in your ignore list.

Apparently yesterday was highest volume on CME ever



Edit:  sweet mother of god confirmed.  Look at that volume candle.

I wonder if this massive candle had anything to do with the CBOE not issuing anymore contracts?

Good evening all.

I dont really have anything today other than what any neophyte level one wizard would be able to tell you at first glance. Traders seem content to continue at these levels. The next round of action seems to be coalescing towards the end of the month. #dyor

Mt. Gox's former head Mark Karpeles found guilty by Tokyo District Court. Sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison. More details to follow
https://twitter.com/ynakamura56/status/1106362801193279488

More details: The sentence is "suspended" (執行猶予) meaning he may not actually have to serve time in prison. Still waiting for full report from the court

Update: He was found guilty of tampering with financial records, but cleared of embezzlement charges. Still trying to clarify whether he will have to serve time. More to come.

That is some more than scary shit, but it's more than obvious he's shilling. I wonder how much Craig is paying him?

Craig is paying who? Not McAfee, that guy is a bitcoin bull (and assorted alts.)

The cost of a cup of coffee ☕️ in Venezuelan bolívars:  

Aug. 2018:           25
Sept. 2018:          35
Oct. 2018:           70
Nov. 2018:        120
Dec. 2018:        400
Jan. 2019:      1,700
Feb. 2019:     2,000
Mar. 2019:    2,800

In 2006 a cup of coffee in a bar cost on average 81 cents and in 2015 already EUR 1.20.

You do not need hyperinflation for your money to lose value substantially.  Actually in this country in 2015 was even deflation. % just silently adds one on top of another and then BAM.

And double or more today

Mass shooting in New Zealand.  Multiple armed perps(??).  Attack on two mosques. Multiple fatalities recorded.  

Obviously terrorism.   Will see if reported as such. Bangladesh cricket team arriving by bus as attack commenced but drove off.

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/03/14/asia/christchurch-mosque-shooting-intl/

Edit:  TVNZ reporter has seen shooter’s manifesto. Is White Supremacist madness with objective of inciting a race war and conflict over Second Amendment. 

https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/live-mass-shooting-christchurch-mosque-police-respond-active-shooter-situation?variant=tb_v_1

Shooting was live streamed.  



This is obviously horrifying.  Possible that young children targeted.   I would ask that some of the more committed racists on this thread take the opportunity to reflect on our common humanity.  I would also ask that some of the bystanders to casual racism here take a stand against it.  And I don’t want to hear shitty stories about how you don’t like Muslims but wouldn’t shoot up a mosque.  If you encourage an atmosphere of racism, then you are part of the problem.

First thing, he's not fat any more.  The fish and rice diet in jail has served him well.

I'm actually glad he's out.  I have been very critical of Mark in the past, had a couple pretty hostile interactions with him on here back in the day, but I now believe that he was not malicious but simply in over his head.  I may be naive in that respect but it is my current belief. 

I also appreciate that he let the little fish swim out after the writing was on the wall.
