chetty: “You know something
that I find quite interesting about
the other side? Under
the leadership of
the former Speaker [Pelosi], and under
the leadership of
their former leader [Rep. Steny Hoyer], when in 2009 and 2010,
they had
the House,
the Senate and
the White House, and
they knew
this problem existed,” he continued. “They didn’t have
the strength
to go after it back
then. But now are
trying
to make a political issue out of it now.”
chetty: well I dont
think she was
trying
to get into his pants
chetty: In an unusual breach of decorum, even for
the divided Congress, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi chased Rep.

to delete private keys from a wallet.dat file but as of version v0.6.0 of Bitcoin-QT/bitcoind,
there is no RPC method available for
this purpose." << assholes.

DreadKnight: mircea_popescu, you do
this
thing where you start linking 2 more of your previous blog posts in
the middle of
the one I'm reading when
things are getting interesting, it's like a psychological hook

titties heh

titties either, saw a lot of
them in vintage porn circa 30's 40's 50's

to
think of
that as another golden age
too -
there's a reason
they all left Germany after all <<
that reason is population pressure.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> I'm convinced
that one of
the reasons
that pre-WWII germany spiraled out of control was because people who were able
to make something of
themselves had already left 50 years earlier <<
this is actually a pretty good
theory.
