Re: when will 3D die?

I agree with this pretty much. I have actually taken a look at 3D before and I will be honest I thought it was alright and I would consider watching a movie in 3D, but would I buy a 3d monitor and 3d nvidia glasses for my PC? No way. 3D how it is now is not the future.

Did Snowden not inform everyone that the US was spying on its allies like the EU?

Re: Hire a troll... Id troll anybody
by
Book
on 07/07/2013, 12:16:19 UTC
These days the media portrays anyone that insults and is just a horrible person online as a "troll". Seriously is annoying when that happens, trolling is usually to annoy someone or maybe upset them, some kind of emotional response, without being detected. Posting a comment for a shitty music video like "Your music is shit" is not trolling, neither is posting "Trololololo".

I agree about saying you think music is shit.
But "Trolololol" is totally trollish.  ha ha
Maybe at the end when you're revealing it was a troll, maybe, but trolling is about people thinking you're a serious person just like they are.

You just have to wait. It is not better at all.

Do you really think it's profitable to make a new account and wait for years before you scam someone?  Especially in light of the new trust system implemented, which further makes one's title less of an indicator as to how trustworthy they are.
Exactly, its more efficient to just get a legal job in the real world. I don't support this account buying/selling though.

Re: Is selling malware against the rules of bitcointalk?

It will damage Bitcoins image, if the biggest Bitcoin forum allows advertisement for malware.
Ban is appropiate.

And you think money laundering, drug dealing,  mining scammers..etc are what?
poster boys for a good clean image......

People don't do that on this forum. Mining scamming maybe but not the rest.

If USD was to go away tomorrow how would you know how much a Bitcoin is worth?
Euros, Yuan, gold, rubles?

I think the OP was referring to an increase in Bitcoin's value, not the dollar's collapse, although both are probably inevitable to some degree.

What if there was no more gold or silver or fiat money, How would you determine Bitcoins value then?
If every currency is wiped I guess people just determine on resources and objects. Most likely the same way the where when these currencies were around.

Feel sorry for US citizens these days with having such a bad government.

Our governments are just as bad, they're just better at covering it up.
The UK gov isn't the best, we have a huge amount of CCTV everywhere spying on us, but they're rarely causing problems with the internet.

Can you buy and sell bitcoins in the UK?
What do you mean, like legally as a business? I guess, Mt Gox acepts GBP.

Can you order a bag of poop and have it delivered to someone's doorstep with PoopCoins or ShitCoins?

That'd be so awesome.

Maybe you could contact these people and ask if they will accept it http://www.shitsenders.com/

Its a prank site that sends packages of exotic animal feces to people's doorsteps, and then tricks them into reaching into it to find out who sent it, but it doesn't actually say who.

Can't chargeback paypal doesn't allow disputes for virtual goods.

Now that is funny.  Where have you been?  What planet are you from?
It's true, paypal officially doesn't get involved/accept disputes over virtual items. If you paid for something like an online game account or bitcoins and get ripped off, they won't accept your chargeback. Only way would be to claim it was unauthorised.

Re: [WTS] AMD Tomb Raider Download Codes

I would have liked the new tomb raider to actually be about that like the movies. How they made it as a survival game on a lost island, I think that was a waste of a TR game. Hopefully they make one in a few years that's on the plot.

I would probably agree with you if I knew more about TR but I haven't played them since the early playstation/xbox days  Tongue
I haven't played any of them I just meant if it was set in modern cities and tombs like the movies I might have actually got it, I don't think lost island/survival suits TR. I mean it has good reviews and many people will obviously enjoy though.

Think the only coins worth looking at are the ones on Mt Gox, litecoin included because it will be on Mt Gox in July. Yes I believe when cryptocurrency is mainstream a few others will make it to the top as well, but right now BTC and LTC. I think any genuinely innovative new coins will have to wait until all the money-hungry clones stop coming.

I agree with this mostly, I do think that when cryptocurrency becomes mainstream a few of the namecoins will also make it up there. Bitcoin and litecoin are the only valuable ones now but I doubt in the end cryptocurrency will be solely based on them two.
