Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I particularly like this quote.

Forget what you can picture. We are at the place on the map where they ran out of names or recognizable features so they just started drawing dragons and giant squids and shit.

Yeah I smiled at that.

NFT's ?

Ah yes I hear rocks are the hot thing now.  about as useful as all the other NFT stuff.  I still don't get buying a PNG image, fight me.  

You're not buying a PNG image, you're buying the hash of a PNG image. You're right to not get it. We can still fight if you'd like.

This is a nice pun. I gave it a merit.


I also gave his below  a merit:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178336.msg57768931#msg57768931

not sure if he did a great pun with tremendous dry wit it would have topped your pun 😊 or like myself he simply doesn’t get it.

Haven't read the previous posts to this, but couldn't resist a discussion of ignition mods.  I used to mod my old points vehicles with electronic ignitions, often of my own design.  My favorite hack was to make a cascode circuit by putting an IGBT between the points and the coil, which relieves the points of the high voltage burden and passes the high voltage switching load to the transistor (points still carry the current in series with the IGBT).  Simplest circuit possible.  I've done complicated stuff like building a hall effect ignition with magnets on a spinning disk in the breaker (the cannister that contains the points) of an old panhead.  Good memories.  Now I drive a modern car and do abstract stuff like modeling an oscillator based on bitcoin's 100 week geometric mean.  Life goes on.


Cool beans, I'll pm you when I get a chance and see what your thoughts are on the project when I get around to it.

Thanks for the merit and no, I dont understand it.  I do understand the racket though.
Just watch this for about 2 minutes, but replace "video game" by NFT, and "Auction House" by Opensea/etc

Take care of your body.
Dont get hammered every day.
Eat decent food most of the time.

Find a solid lover and have tons of sex as it will give the two of you good reason to take care of your body.

Make the food and the rest excellent rather than decent most of the time and live almost forever?

The Bolt was first recalled in November after five cars that hadn’t been in crashes caught fire. After investigating the problem further, Chevy recalled a second batch in July. The problem was traced to two manufacturing defects that could occur simultaneously. The defects—a torn anode tab and folded separator—created conditions that could lead to a short in affected cells. So far, the company has identified 10 fires that involve faulty batteries, according to an AP report.

My late dad would say 80 sounds good until you are 79.

At 64 my goal is to top the oldest male relative I know about he made it to 93.  So I am shooting for 94.

I want to still be having fun with the wife for the next 30 years.

Jesus How old are you! Cheesy

When were car Thermostats stock?

My first car didn't have a rear window heater until I added one myself Smiley

I believe thermostats are still pretty standard?

That Ford Capri of mine didn't have a rear window heater either, I also added a aftermarket one. I remember it was a sticker type thing, peel of the protective plastic and attach it to the window and plug in the the two wires to a power source via a switch. Simple and worked pretty well, but ugly as f.
They don't make them anymore, I was looking for one a couple of years ago as replacement for the broken one on the car I had back then.

I have been pondering if I should change the thermostat or not, but I might just as well go all the way and change that and the pump while I'm at it.
Electric fans is nothing new to me however, my SAAB 900 from -88 had one.

I put a rear defrost in my 79 Monte Carlo and a third brake light while I was at it. I went through at least 3 engine 2 transmissions and a rear end in that beast. Had some great times in that car. Smiley

Same here. It had two metal strips you had to tuck the metal sticker into. Well worth doing as the metal in my wheel wells had rusted through and water would get inside the car and everything would fog up. You might have been able to fix it with silver paint which I've seen advertised for exactly that purpose. Looks like this company still makes em. https://frostfighter.com/

You can test them but it's one of those things that if you have it out to test, you may as well replace it anyway. I've been putting it off on my car as the housing is a bit of a PITA to remove.

You kids, get out of my yard...

Hah, I think I ran into that on my buddys T-Bird and changing out those lines when they get old is not a fun job! Smiley
also all the vents were pneumatic controlled, the car was riddled with old plastic splitting airlines.

I jinxed the bull market when I predicted 70k by may.

back in april..

It was you responsible for this whole BTC dippening matter.     Angry Angry Angry Angry

Damned Philip..

Can you just stop jinxing the BTC price performance from now on? 

We would prefer that things (including BTC price UPpening) can go better for us HODLers?

Surely in a voluntary transaction, there is not going to be abilities for the individual parties to figure out how much surplus value each person got, and in many cases it might not be necessary to know those surplus values except to appreciate that they exist, otherwise the parties would not have voluntarily engaged in the transaction.

Precisely so. Though often some degree of estimation of the net value gain might be estimable. If I sell you the wooden frogs I make for $8 and you're selling them in your wooden frog shop for $12, I might get a bit of a clue.
