pete_dushenski: does no one in winnipeg look for jobs or something ? i've been trying in vain to find

a long time but this is pure bs."
pete_dushenski: "All of this adds up to
a multifaceted perception problem for those of us who are operating legitimate businesses that are dependent on Bitcoin. Both trustworthiness and terminology matter." << bitcoin clearly needs more marketing from chuck et al., only then can bitcoin truly succeed as
a tool for fiat banks to understand how the world works.

a rating of -2, and supplied these additional notes: He's seems to be
a yes-man for all camps..
adlai: right, it doesn't quite cut it to literally repeat the same words. the identical message must be replicated with original content. this is why "bitcoin difficulty rose yet again" is such
a tontrivial beat
mats: >we did
a run-around because potus is an intransigent idiot
mats: >The Joint Chiefs felt that
a direct challenge to Obama’s policy would have ‘had
a zero chance of success’. So in the autumn of 2013 they decided to take steps against the extremists without going through political channels, by providing US intelligence to the militaries of other nations, on the understanding that it would be passed on to the Syrian
BingoBoingo: <adlai> how about
a monthly wordcount minimum, to be padded with "Bitcoin exists, relax bro" etc << This only works when someone is doing something stupid and
a flavor of "Bitcoin exists, relax bro" can be presented. See Paxful.

a monthly wordcount minimum, to be padded with "Bitcoin exists, relax bro" etc
adlai: trinque: since what matters for notarisation is that the hash enters the blockchain, you just need to find
a/the first transaction paying to it, regardless of its source. yes, you need to scan the entire blockchain. yes, you can ignore transactions which aren't "from" 1BkCTj36789blah
adlai: well Red did said, "Hopium can drive

a dog"
mod6: gotta walk
a lot though, from what i'm told.
mod6: south dakota still has
a lot from what I hear. i've never hunted there yet. but i hear that you'll see like 100 birds get up at
a single time. so many, it's hard to actually pick
a target.
mircea_popescu: yeah foxes are
a problem. can't really have lotta fox and lotta turkey/pheasant/grouse in the same place.
mod6: yeah. there used to be
a lot more wild birds here in minnesota, so say the old timers. but the land development and introduction of
a lot more nest-feeding animals like skunks, coyote, wolves and foxes have shrank the population.
mircea_popescu: easy enough way to protect the population, if it has any wildlife habitat. make hunt rooster-only for
a while.
mod6: i cook three of 'em at
a time. we eat 'em quite
a bit.
mod6: they're bigger than grouse. bout the same size as
a chicken, maybe
a bit bigger.

a year anyway. plenty, neh ?

a rink, and lace-up !
mod6: i got
a buddy who played for calgary
a while back. maybe 10 years.
pete_dushenski: i don't remember being able to do much more than
a minute-thirty back then, but i figure, hey, let's give this another shot
pete_dushenski: so i tried
a wall sit for the first time in, like, 5 years last night.
