Republicans seem to like cancer OK. At least when a Democrat is suggesting investment in researching treatment for it.

I pointed out earlier to my sister that if 2016 really wants to keep killing awesome 69 year old British dudes it'll come for Tim Curry next. She was not amused.Koumei wrote:Jesus shitdicks, now Alan Rickman is also dead, also age 69, also from cancer.
It's really easy to do. States get 12 nautical miles from their land borders and the Straights of Hormuz are only 21 nautical miles across. There's literally no high seas corridor into and out of the Persian Gulf.
It really doesn't need to kill Tim Curry. After his stroke, he probably isn't going to be in shape to do any acting anytime soon, if ever again.Whipstitch wrote:I pointed out earlier to my sister that if 2016 really wants to keep killing awesome 69 year old British dudes it'll come for Tim Curry next.

He's actually just been cast as the narrator in the Rocky Horror remake.hyzmarca wrote:It really doesn't need to kill Tim Curry. After his stroke, he probably isn't going to be in shape to do any acting anytime soon, if ever again.
I'm a little shocked he doesn't have heart problems, as much time as he apparently spends angryPrak wrote:It doesn't check the "british" box, but Trump is a well known 69 year old man, so I'm hoping [Mod Edit] Wishing death on anyone is forbidden[/Mod]
This is a great illustration of why libertarianism is a pipe dream. What exists outside government regulations isn't a free market utopia, but the formation of trusts who muscle their way into the market and then do whatever they want. Bitcoin suckers shunned systems where they can at very least vote for the people who appoint the central bank presidents and ended in an absolutist dictatorship.Red Archon wrote:Bitcoin developer Mike Hearn declares the project a failure.

It's bumping up to the halving date, so one or the other promise has to be broken. Looks like they are breaking both. Big surprise.Frank Trollman, 2013 wrote:So here's a thing that's been bothering me about the whole BitCoin thing: the entire claim that it has any "real value" at all is that there is, ultimately, a finite number of them. After a specific time in the future, all BitCoin mining operations will have zero return because there will be no more bits to hash. At the same time, the entire claim to having "real utility" is that you don't have to pay transaction fees because the overhead of verification is taken care of... by the mining servers.
If the "real value" clause ever actually comes due, then even if BitCoins can be sold for a billion dollars each at that moment, the mining servers will still turn off. And then the financial infrastructure that every BitCoin transaction and wallet is freeloading off of will just cease to exist.
It takes real resources to store and verify commodity currency, whether the commodity is bars of gold or strings of numbers. Right now, BitCoin is paying for those resources with the issuance of new virtual coins. But the up front promise is that they are eventually going to stop doing that. At which point they will be paying for the resources required to maintain and verify these coins and transactions with... nothing.
So even if BitCoin doesn't have any particular scandal that makes it vanish into the ether of e-gold and other digital gold currency scams, the music still has to stop eventually. They are saying simultaneously that they can keep transaction fees down by paying for financial infrastructure with newly issued BitCoins and also that there is a limit to the number of BitCoins they will ever issue. And while both of those things can be simultaneously true for a while, in the long run one or the other promise has to be broken.
I'm glad I clicked on the dropdowns.Ancient History wrote:http://www.lizardpeoplemeet.com/
