    Same as the US dollar. There is nothing backing it either.

    Why aren't the governments doing anything?

    Bitcoin is not any more of a ponzi scheme than the US Dollar. And thats one reason why they are not doing anything to outlaw it. If it ever went to court it would be all over the internet that in essence there is *nothing* backing the US dollar or most other currencies. Also, they probably were...

    Report: Mike Pence Offered to Replace Trump on GOP Ticket

    I think you nailed it. I hate it. I know pence. He is such a worthless piece of shit I can't even stand to capitalize his name. He makes me embarrassed to be from Indiana. I want you to think about that. Of all the reasons to be embarrassed about my home state pence tops the list.

    Politics: dog and pony show or actual change?

    I'm not even asking if its good change. Do you think there is any meaningful change happening or going to happen or is it just a circus to keep us in our seats? I know where I am everything is business (crime) as usual.

    Programming: open source licenses

    Just for fun I want to try my hand at sales and marketing. I thought I would take some opensource software, make a few tweaks, slap a new name on it, and sell it. I'm not worried about other people taking my software and doing the same. Are there any licenses that permit this?

    Bitcoin futures

    Now that I've thought about it I can tell you exactly what it is going to do and why. Its going to plummet. Non stop until its nearly worthless. Because I bought some. After I sell, it will go back up. Would anyone like to purchase an alert for when I sell?

    Bitcoin futures

    Anyone have any idea what is going to happen with the price of BTC when futures go live? Someone pointed out that short selling could slow it down a lot. There are plenty of people who think the bubble is ready to pop. Then again, there are also plenty of eager young people with money; and more...

    Private luxury aircraft, international travel

    Please, I passed drug lord status long ago. I'm way worse than that. The thing is you don't have to be a drug lord. Governments all over the world are much more tolerant of drug lords than they are of skilled political activists or journalists that don't follow the rules. And you get grief...

    Private luxury aircraft, international travel

    I think its wiser. Ports and airports are choke points. There is no accountability for the conduct of security at airports and naval crew are clueless about maritime law. Plus no matter the size of your wallet you can afford more vehicles leading and lagging you, better security, etc.

    As I have said before, I can't make a grocery list without someone stealing it, drugging me, and asking me how it works.

    quadcopter (funny)

    Some time ago an acquaintance asked if I had all the skills necessary to build a full sized one-man quad copter. I said I did. He asked if I could do it for 10,000. I said I could... But why would I want to?

    Funny Irish story.

    Years ago I went to Ireland to visit an acquaintance. I brought gifts of some of my favorite American things. Among them were a few cans of B&M brown bread. He and his wife enjoyed it to a surprising degree. The next day he gave me a can of a similar product from Ireland, which was...
