Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[JayJuanGee]

It's not healthy if you attempt to frame history in such a way that largely just imposes many of your own values on other peeps.  There is that angle, too.

And maybe if you stopped being such an insufferable condescending, know-it-all jackass who has to try and shame anyone that slightly disagrees with you, you might have more friends around here.

That, and writing your ungodly long, droning walls of text that no one has time or patience to read.

We can agree to disagree.  

I thought that I had reasonably and even fairly described what appeared you were attempting to accomplish in your earlier post, Torque.

For some reason, you were trying to paint some kind of historical picture of a mythical forum in which earlier members were somehow more united than current members and purportedly singing a kind of kumbaya... which is just nonsense.

In essence, your overly emotional response to my post above seems to be connected to your inability to substantively deal with the way that I had characterized your earlier post...  

I am glad that you pointed out some of my short-comings, Torque.  Accordingly, I was wondering why I was having such difficulties relating.

You bloviator!

I learned a new word, thx Bob

Yep.

Sucks to be me.    

I am like a cat, trying to relate to dogs... or maybe it's the other way around?

Which DAW is that ? Don't immediately recognize it. I'm a Steinberg whore.

It's a new purchase, and one I am exceedingly delighted with.  It's Bitwig.  Obviously inspired by Ableton Live, but it's hallmarks are being crazily modular in every way imaginable with both standard linear tracking as well as algorithmic  pattern based stuff, or a combo.

That picture is its sampler.  It is very simple, but extremely well thought out at the same time.  In fact that is the sort of theme of the whole thing.  It does NOT have all the features of the top end DAWs but what it does do is amazingly simple and intuitive.  I'd say it is both minimalist, and incredibly tweakable.  I tried Live several times over the years but it just never clicked.  For some reason this one did.

I used so many DAWs over the years.  In fact I did a lot of work in both Cubase and Nuendo.  Both such solid pieces of software.  I also went through a Samplitude period, and had Logic before Apple bought it.  In the end I did most of the work in my studio (when it was still my job) in Sonar believe it or not.  In fact I was a contributor to it.  I made all the impulse responses it came with.  But my close #2 was Reaper.  And now in the wake of the death (sort of) of Sonar, if I do anything in a traditional multitrack setting it's in Reaper.

Oddly the only DAW I never used much was Pro Tools... lol.  I mean I could get around it it, just like I knew what a pair of Mackie HRs sounded like... (But i use Dynaudio).

But the workflow and built in instruments and effects in Bitwig are delightful.

Here's something I am currently scratch-padding out... no mix yet, all ideas. https://sndup.net/854h/TheWater.ogg

  Damn! That was my last merit.

I just sent you two.

 Thanks very much!  There are just too many posts I want to merit, I wish we could have had something more along the lines if a 'like" button available on every post.  This merit limiting works fine for a decentralized, digital currency but it's not as good for forum posts.

here is a lucky 7

Bob's like the third ragequit I have seen lately in a number of widely different forums. Is everyone just starting to go fucking insane from this Covid and election season?

On a related note, I got back from a medical appointment with a specialist earlier this afternoon, who is big into epidemiology, and she off-handedly mentioned the world should start returning to "more normal" in about May, with respect to COVID19 starting to have a waning impact on daily life.

Taking it with a grain of salt, but praying there is some truth with her experience.

If you had written me off as you suggest, you would not be mentioning me so frequently.  

I enjoy playing with poop.

Sue me.

May?  Like 2021?  I have hoped for sooner...

I guess you gotta take what you can get... :/

I think there is a chance the aftermath of the US election is gonna make Covid look quaint.  I can't believe I am saying this... but I am hoarding ammo.  Really.

An interesting writeup from one of the Winkelvoss bros.

Good read, thanks for sharing.

Interesting regarding the different kinds of inflation (measured in luxury goods and assets inflation is clearly already there). Printing yourself out of dollar debt through a soft default is a ‘luxury’ the US has, but be aware other countries with a debt in dollars can’t. It is going to be ugly, whenever those seemingly unavoidable days come.

These winklevoss guys get more outspoken now things are getting ugly:

Even before COVID-19, and despite the longest bull run in U.S. economic history, the government was spending money like a drunken sailor, cutting taxes like Crazy Eddie, and printing money like a banana republic.

Yep, I wonder what "got to them"?
Did not get some "cantillon-prime" loans or still sore about that Larry Summers thingie?

Get some help Bob.
You are obviously in pain and seem to be exhibiting signs of schizophrenia or a serious bipolar condition. You need help buddy.

* BobLawblaw yawns

Got help a long time ago. Stop projecting. Perhaps you are the one that may need help ? 🤔

Stop boring me to death already, bellend.

Many on ignore...
Unignore from time to time?
What’s the fucking point! Bob.

Imagine the day when they both will be running for the United States Presidency! One will be the POTUS and the other his vice. How hilarious this would be? If it will ever be, remember you read it first here on the WO, the most informative thread of all bitcointalk.

Ok, they open the skull, insert a chip with electrodes, but WTF it does?
The pig with implant is shy and does not want to come out, investigating something away from the camera.
Conclusion: ?

that implant.. will it allow us to control nubile young females to grant our every desire?

No it will send you to reconditioning for thinking of it.

well if its reconditioning by said nubile young females... hmmmm

Today, 6 years ago, Hal Finney passed away.

In Jan 2009, Finney predicted that one day #Bitcoin  could be worth as much as $10,000,000 each!

Since then, #BTC  is up 9,000,000%.

Rest in peace Hal. 🙏

Good afternoon WO!
Observing @ $11,470
Some A**H**L made a mess with me and I missed $12k ride.

Now since I am back, hopefully I am not going to miss the party again.

What if "reconditioning" involves extracting your groinal probe from the VCR?
