  1. What? Is the pump broke? The pit seem flooded. Or is it cooling liquid?
  2. Everyone!!! It's a robot! His name is Bot-Bot and he has been sent down here to preach to mankind that multi-pool sucks and that he will destroy all auto-trader-bots that ruin the day for all of us. He has this insignia on his chest ==> <== I'm sure I've seen it before somewhere....
  3. Would it be an idea to have a thread or subforum called Website Suggestions or similar? I just had a hard time figuring out a proper thread to suggest making the main navigation into a 'sticky menu' that remains on top of the page as you scroll down. I don't remember if this is an option in IPBoard, but WP has it as an option I think, at least the theme I used. Is there some system of widgets or similar?
  4. At the moment I don't have much of a time horizon established, but by structuring my thoughts a bit I can sketch up the following template of progress based on my ideas and intentions. This is just a sketch, but you get the idea. Level of Formation - This is present. To shape an Abstract for a Conceptual Framework designed to be the Nucleus of Intent of the site which the whole site will rest on for the rest of its existence. At this level no code will be written, save perhaps a mock-up prototype of the site to be used for reference on the next level. Also at this level, an estimate of funding
  5. Indeed. I like the French word for gold, 'Or' I believe although it's an Indo-European language, is related to the Hebrew word for light אור or "Owr" (compare to Eng. Hour, and Ger. Uhr) and the Sumerian city Urim or Ur (in Babylonian Ur simply means City as far as I can see), where they are credited for having standardised and systemised the same units for time and space we still use today, based on the geometric base-60 system, the square and compass, and what they saw as a direct proportional relationship between the human body and the cosmos (no less), as if to chant the ancient mantra «As
  6. Hopefully now it's fine, and yes, as soon as I can agree with myself as to exactly what it is this site should be, I will hopefully manage to put together some working prototype to launch at some point in time not too distant. I will have to work out exactly what code is needed and I will have to find a solution as to how to produce this code. Thorough analyses of economic issues and a sound budget and prospect of some kind. Man, I am like a mermaid with a bicycle in all nearly these issues. But yeah, I will have to produce a working prototype sooner rather than later.
  7. Some have actually experienced that as far as I know. And yes, it was earnings from mining that was the issue. Can't remember exactly where I read it. Probably on CoinDesk, my main source of bitcoin news. Another approach was made from the head of the Danish national bank; he compared bitcoins to the glass pearls that were widely used to pay off indigenous Americans during the European takeover of the Americas. The good Dane may have a point, however, if this is the "reality" the lawmakers live in. Lately, things have notched up a step, obviously the lobby has been working hard, with compari
  8. I'll do. Haven't been giving this thing much thought lately I'm afraid, but I still think it's a viable idea that I wish to follow up. But with no money and lacking necessary skills and not much time to work on it, well, it takes time. I'll fix the opening post again and try not to leave out anything that is referred to in the the thread. Think I'll just shorten the title and add a sort of abstract at the bottom of the head post. -- Perhaps it would be an idea to make a sticky thread with a 'starting post template' or some basic formatting demands for posting new threads/projects? Sort of a
  9. I have no idea, its a, eh, a thing. It doesn't show up properly on the ultrasound. Stealth perhaps? Anyway, my tummy has been growing and there is a voice inside my head going on about me having to eat more fibre and carbs. That's why my internet went down the other day. Spagetti on the menu. And my car's broke. Turns out I only found one carb in one of all the cars in my street. Mine and most of the others had something called injection. Now what?!?
  10. I'm telling you, it's a fake, a dummy, doll, decoy puppet! Shambles! Look at that instrument on that orange hat, it's the thing they use to make it move. Why didn't anyone notice anything at the meeting? Talking of which, all I remember from the meeting is a flash of light, a probe, and now it turns out I'm pregnant! Blast!
  11. These guys make some really nice hemp products ==> http://www.hempys.com/— the below is from their about page:
  12. I'm not sure, but I believe the 9th one is a dummy! Look closely. It has clothes, obviously in order to hide something.... Outrageous!!!
  13. I am thinking of pick up Tai Chi again in the new year, and hopefully 2015 can bring some natural element that lives and loves-- to get my feet back on solid ground. There is a new chi-gong master in town apparently, and hopefully I can afford it. That's earthing right there. They advertise with yoga and tai chi classes starting January 2015, I can hardly wait to get started. Also I received a new job today, another CD cover. Same record label, and just about the same workload it seems. The manager called just hours after I finished the album that I've been working on over the last couple of
  14. Better hope they never both show up at the same time in the same place then O_o
  15. Ah, the "hum of the earth that is not a hum at all". Apparently, our planet (and all other planets for all we know) emits electromagnetic radiation where the wavelength is the same as the planet's circumference. It's not a sound as many people tend to believe, it's a kind of electromagnetic radiation, much like light, nuclear radiation and x-rays only extremely low frequency (ELF). Exactly what it is is hard to say. It may be a gravity thing or some kind of radiation exhaust or leftovers from the nuclear processes inside the Earth's nucleus or core, or a host of other things. Since people ha
  16. You could build a simple Faraday cage to run your miners inside. You could make a simple one using aluminium foil or you could do like the pros and buy fine copper mesh and build a sturdier one. ==> http://science.howstuffworks.com/faraday-cage.htm
  17. Yup. Not much different between bitcoin and the NSA/IBM Lucifer cipher from the seventies really. Like everything else having to do with internet, the bitcoin technology seems to have come from some skunk works letter soup agency. Not some secretive Chinese programmer. He might have been the messenger, but his message has NSA and DARPA written all over it. Naturally. Satoshi's secret wallet AKA «Satoshi's pension fund» could ruin the whole bitcoin economy.
  18. According to CoinDesk on 25th November, the Dutch Ministry of Finance (Jakob Kamminga) has voiced that, quote, «Bitcoin transactions will "probably" be not liable for value added tax (VAT)» and that «this is based on the notion that such exemptions apply to payments instruments, which, if the term is interpreted broadly, may include payments in bitcoin.» [Source]. And this reflects the main problem for me as a merchant to deal with these coins. The law is so ambiguous that planning ahead and accounting sounds more like a lottery than business. Ironically, some officials have expressed that t
  19. The world of crypto currency has its myths, and Satoshi Nakamoto is perhaps the most epic one. An untold, fractional epic that can be written as a 36 digit hashed crypto-key and turned into cash. I'm willing to bet Satoshi will never reveal himself. I doubt he ever even existed. And if he does, he seems to have a secret wallet full of pre-mined BTC stacked away some place, so I doubt he will ever go public: ==> http://www.coindesk.com/dangerous-satoshi-nakamoto/
  20. Sounds great. I am rather busy these days, I have a deadline on Thursday for a CD cover, so I have to get that one done first. Product testing is important. Yes, that was my thoughts too. Then again, even though it's a simple solution, so is a paperclip or a piece of sticky tape, then again, it's nice to have a working option baked into the wallet itself. Check your PM btw.
  21. I have a rule with these coins. BTC/FRC etc must be as simple or even simpler to use, more secure and more versatile than cash. Security is covered with encrypted passwords, so that is out of the picture, but that leaves simplicity. The simplicity of FIAT cash is about as simple as it gets, but if you bring with you a £100 note, you're stuck with those, and you can't split it just like that, you can't scan it and make it more or less valuable, you can't pay online with FIAT notes and so on. With crypto currency the development is on the right track. In the future you can probably register yo
  22. Right now I'm working on the physical wallet itself, trying to find a simple way to seal the private key. The simplest solution until now is a paper folded twice (I made it three squares in a row) with a lovely c-section (one for the ladies ) along the second false (fold), so you can "lock" what's printed on the first two squares away from prying eyes and cameras, while the rest is easily accessible. See attached sketch below. While working on this, I got thinking about the kind of ration stamps that were in use during and after the war over here-- could it be useful to have more than on
  23. Lone Gunmen March 4, 2001 PILOT EPISODE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRtqQLMAZek I love this one. Released in spring 2001, the pilot for the X-Files spin-off show The Lone Gunmen (remember the hackers Mulder visits from time to time, those guys, fantastic series covering most of the classic conspiracy theories btw) follows a plot that has very much in common with the 11-09-2001 attacks, or rather, in common with the conspiracy theories that came bubbling out of the abyss that opened, concerning the supposed inside-job conspiracy, RC planes, controlled demolition, the whole and shameful
