dlsx··on 13k BTC, 300k LTC Stolen from Cryptsy Exchange
BTC is funny, it is revolutionary, but it does not really have anything to offer over insured money in a real bank. Bitcoin, if it ever wants to have the every-man invest in this "currency" it needs to offer some sort of insurance, which usually requires identity. Digital cash that is anonymous can not offer this, so it is inherently flawed. To use it, quite simply puts yourself at risk.

So really the banks are correct in their assesment, the real value quite obviously is indeed in the blockchain technology.

dlsx··on Bitcoin Surges Past $400
He doesn't understand Chinese. When you said "ugly number" this is very important to the Chinse. They will push the price based on what number they are attached to.

If the price is 314.44 they will push it to 316.88 because that is the number they like, and if they dictate that price it is like they have created their own luck. At least this is my philosophy dealing with Chinese and watching their buy patterns.

dlsx··on Ask HN: Should I be a plumber?
No, because your passion is not plumbing.

You seem frustrated monetarily, yet seem to enjoy your profession.

Honestly, find a new niche for your services and keep working hard and doing your best in your current field. As long as you are following your dream/passion the end always justifies the means.

dlsx··on Bitcoin drops 50% overnight as China’s Biggest BTC exchange stops Yuan deposits
Your shocked because your old and have no sense of humor and think money is serious business.

Dogecoin has the fastest rate of adoption, of any crypto-currency. Ever, period. It makes every coin, even bitcoin look like an absolute failure.

Because it's fun, and kids think it's cool. You guys missed the boat, because you were too busy being serious.

dlsx··on Bitcoin drops 50% overnight as China’s Biggest BTC exchange stops Yuan deposits
Dogecoin 50% gain only alt coin to post gains in 24 hours.

>reddit and 4chan

Well looks like the internet has decided what coin they want to use.

Buttcoins are deprecated.

dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
I agree dogecoin to the moon!
dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
Can confirm.

I have sourced all the mcdonalds wifi in my area to grow marijuana. It's like how the sonar in the dark knight works.

All of the free wifi gets channeled in to my grow lights.

dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
Blah blah blah doge is up 600% !!!

I just got a girl to show me her boobs for 10K doge. You guys I'm not joking, hot girls are using doge!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the fuck is going on ?

Ahhhhhh!

dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
Litecoin is about to be overthrown by dogecoin.

Shows how little this site knows about how normal users perceive currency.

Keep your butts, keep your LTC, and your peer cons. You guys missed the moonboat and now real users are going to dictate the future of currency.

Doge coin has arrived to crash the alt coin market and rise above to save the people from all the greed and scum that has overtaken the bitcoin inindustry. Yes I'm looking at you hacker news. Why do you all just care about money so much?

dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
Dogecoin has the fastest rate of adoption, what are you guys doing sitting here holding your dicks?

Don't miss the boat!

dlsx··on Why I want Bitcoin to die in a fire
bitcoin, its ogre you loose.

The people have spoken, and DOGE coin is the people coin.

wOOF

dlsx··on BitHub = Bitcoin + GitHub. An experiment in funding privacy OSS
I think you would be better off implementing something easier to use like dogecoin. The reddit community seems to be adopting it, and it seems much more reasonable to buy 1000 doge for $1 than .00001 BTC

BTC has a huge problem and the mBTC uBTC just ended up confusing people even more.

>is this made entirely in chrome?

>chrome is a language

Google Chrome is a botnet. Not a programming language. Having it installed on your computer keep Google "in the know" because literally everything you type is key logged and sent to Google HQ.

dlsx··on Santa Maps Dive
Doesn't work unless you have the Chrome botnet installed.

Pls bury this thread, and uninstall Chrome for nightly.

dlsx··on A Warning: Do not turn in illegal files you found to the police.
I think you are missing the point. Which is that there is risk involved in a situation where not only should there be no risk, but this guy should be praised for his honesty.

The justice system, and the police bureaucracy is working against it's citizens. Something it was designed against from it's inception, so the only fucking reason things are the way they are is corruption and greed. Maybe a privatized prison industry isn't a good idea. Maybe, the bureaucracy is the problem, and that is the issue you should be concerned with.

dlsx··on A Warning: Do not turn in illegal files you found to the police.
You must be new

>It's an unbelievable story.

Keep telling yourself that.

dlsx··on Thoughts on Bitcoin
Your post is so true. My parents still have all their money tied in to their mortgage because the government said it's good for them. Maybe I don't value US currency, because I don't value my US government which is completely broken from head to toe.

But, it isn't just an issue for people in the USA. It's a blessing for people who live in more oppressed region of the world. Look at what happened in Iceland and how the bankers stole from the people.

People don't like the idea of their wallet being on someone else's hard drive. And that's exactly how the current system is ran. Your money is in a vault, and you have to go through an even worse time to get it than I do. And I don't pay fees, and so on etc.

dlsx··on Bitcoins stolen from the users of Sheep Market Place?
I have smoked and ingested marijuana for over 20 years and my doctor says I am in absolutely wonderful condition for my age.

>marijuana makes you smarter, stronger, and happier

Prove me wrong. And I was high when I wrote this. Zero mistakes, flawless use of internet comment section.

This isn't their government, it's ours. Take it back please.

1 person can make a difference. We are in this together.

dlsx··on Facebook
Please don't argue for Facebook you come off as anti-human.
dlsx··on Facebook
If only the mainstream media would listen to humanitarians like RMS. Instead they choose to listen to greedy slime balls that end in BERG.

Money is the root of all evil. Combine that with privacy, and Facebook IS the new root of all evil. I deleted my account years ago, and I know with 100% certainty it will never be purged. It's criminal, and I fucking loathe this fact. I would pay to cave in some of the faces at Facebook.

dlsx··on Tab Closed; Didn't Read
And this is also why people type in "Ad block" in to Google. It is the obnoxious few that ruin it for the rest of us. Now 100 people won't view your quiet embedded ad because some video pop-up. And these are mainstream websites that shouldn't be using dirty tricks like this.

These websites are losing business. They are listening to a team of marketers who are looking for quick conversions. What about that long term reader of a decade who just deleted your bookmark?

dlsx··on Empty Mansions: Don’t be old and rich in New York City
I doubt they were trying their best, I mean other than trying to kill her and "extract wealth."

What's sad to me is the general populace thinking a "doctor" is anything more than a spineless vulture pushing whatever status-quo pill regime is hot in the pharma industry. Doctors like this should be fucking hung, I'm not joking. I don't care if you are desperate for that third mercedes. You're a scum bag trying to milk the death of an elderly lady that doesn't know any better. Really, what the fuck is the point of "healthcare" in this obviously broken industry built on exploiting health rather than fixing it.

dlsx··on Poll: How many hours a day are you looking at a screen?
Desktop, at least 2 hours a day. I feel if I am not at the desktop I am not being productive, but 2+ hours daily productivity is great.

Laptop/tablet/phone/etc. Looking for inspiration, browsing, stuff like that. I would say sometimes more time may be spent here, but it probably is also 2 hours.

TV I try to avoid. I like to watch a few teams and catch some games here and there. Mostly movie time, so another solid 2 hours in this category.

6-8 hours easily, and I always feel like I could double this and still wake up the next morning with a full checklist of things to accomplish.

dlsx··on The exponential growth of Bitcoin value explained
I don't understand bitcoin. In the sense, for a normal person to use it. I don't understand a normal consumer using bit coin.

I can't even figure out how to setup this stupid wallet. It has been downloading a block file for over 5 days. How the fuck is this the future?

The future is retarded.

dlsx··on New Top-Level Domains
I have brokered .com domains for many startups over the past few years, and I can say almost every time the domain was fairly priced and a deal was reached without too much negotiating or time wasted.

I really think a lot of startups shoot themselves in the foot by just saying "everything in .com is taken." Well maybe, but that doesn't mean you can't pay $2-5k and actually secure your domain.

What I am saying is shelling out a few grand now for the appropriate .com will save you loads of time and headaches than if you try to brand on non dot-com and eventually realize you can't live without it.

dlsx··on Why I Will Never Go Back to the United States
But he doesn't have a choice. The USA will not let him in regardless, so saying he won't ever return is a rather moot point. If he was let in to the country and then decided this it would have a much different perspective. He is likely not pleased that he can't get back in he states and thus it is more than likely the OP is not telling the whole truth.
dlsx··on Redesigning Techcrunch
Good design, same shit writing.
dlsx··on Dear Googles: Stop asking
This.

And stop asking if I want to download the youtube app every time I go to youtube.com in mobile safari (It is the pop-up banner of this generation.) That goes for all you clever scripting savvy marketers, I fucking despise you.
