Samsquamsch posted:My absolute favorite part about this particular combination of story and site is the fact that a mole from BFL negotiated the buyout of buttcoin.org, changed the devastatingly true BFL article on their POS mining rig to blatant lies, but now cannot do a loving thing to try and whitewash what has happened. Glorious. I didn't understand a single thing of that sentence? Then again I don't understand Bitcoins either, other than I should've gotten in on this totally-not-a-pyramid-scheme from the beginning, so I would've been unable to trade them for real money today anyway? If I wanted to throw money I away I can just give it to some investors and they do it for me, this seems like too much effort.

Mr Havafap posted:I didn't understand a single thing of that sentence? Butterfly Labs (BFL) pre-sold bitcoin mining machines. Buttcoin, a blog that highlights the idiocy of bitcoiners, included articles very critical of BFL and the "broken piece[s] of poo poo" they sold. Someone bought buttcoin and changed all the anti-BFL articles to be pro-BFL. The buyer was later discovered to be Jeff Ownsby, PR for BFL. Buttcoin may or may not have been among the BFL assets seized by the FTC. Either way, Jeff cannot stop killhamster from posting about the ongoing FTC case. Hope that helps.

They bought the site but one of the original writers still had access to post articles. He's continuing to post articles that chronicle Butterfly's woes on the website that they bought from him.

Hydrolith posted:But... the article was posted to buttcoin.org, which BFL bought? Or did they buy some other kind of buttcoin? They bought ownership and editing of buttcoin.org. They didn't buy the comments, they didn't buy the social network stuff, they didn't buy the backup site buttcoinfoundation.org, etc.. The contract also left FCKGW (the original owner) as writing staff for 6 months (they breached this contract), and killhamster as staff indefinitely. Killhamster still posts articles there and Jeff Ownby is too busy with serious jailtime coming up to do editing and doing it might have been part of the evidence of the company committing fraud by using an alias to purchase the one review site of the product that was critical and make it positive. This has made it so that the owner of the site is unable to stop the chronicling of his own downfall because he was too cheap or too stupid to buy it all and hire the writers as employees instead of unpaid contributors with no editorial control between them and the internet.

Plus, the buttcoin guys are preparing to move to a new domain entirely under their control, and probably restore the original BFL articles.

If butterfly labs had an ounce of business saavy they likely could have bought the blog for a pittance. It had never made any money and the guy was going weeks between posts on it. These dumbasses gave him twenty thousands dollars for it.

So let me get this straight. They bought a website, including hiring the staff, and they employ those staff to write lovely things about them? And for contractual reasons they must continue to employ them?

This has already been explained at least twice now. Pay more attention.

Male birth control is on it's way and it's good. It's just a mechanical barrier for sperm in the form of a gel, that can be inserted and removed easily. This way you still produce cum (gently caress yeah) but it will be completeley free of sperm cells. Much better than messing with your hormones.

It's surgical. Which is to say, "easily" for the doctor.

The real schadenfreude will be a year after the male birth control comes out, when thousands of women are pregnant despite their boyfriends 'totally being on the gel stuff.'

Something that weirded me out about MRAs and them talking about male birth control is how happy a lot of them are to have girlfriends on hormonal birth control. But messing with MEN'S hormones?! That's dangerous!

Nitrox posted:Where does that Spermicidal gel go? How is it applied? It is not spermicidal. It is purely mechanical. It's basically a plug. Eruonen posted:Condoms are better because they actually prevent disease also. If you are in a relationship it is better to have this instead of the pill, which messes with the hormones and which you can forget to take. Vasal gel is a thing you do once and then it should work for years without doing anything. On the other hand stopping to take the pill is something you can do yourself, but removing the plug is something you need to go to the doctor for. Aerofallosov posted:Something that weirded me out about MRAs and them talking about male birth control is how happy a lot of them are to have girlfriends on hormonal birth control. But messing with MEN'S hormones?! That's dangerous! Yeah, and that's why men should be responsible for birth control, if there is a way that has less or no side effects and that you don't have to take care of daily, but only once. But it is still in the testing phase. So some of the claims for vasal gel might not be true after all. Lucy Heartfilia has a new favorite as of 13:10 on Oct 2, 2014 |
