 instead of having a "pay for all of this in cash you moron" line at the top, nope, let's specify it everywhere, but still carry a credit card because there's literally no way you get to use that ever on the run also there's no way avis will rent you a car without placing a hold for a few hundred dollars on said credit card, so that's either going to fail because the card will be frozen or it's going to fail because you leave a huge red flag with your location also i'm moderately sure every time i rented a car at a new place they actually validated the driver's permit, fakes can piggy back on a real one's identity i guess but good luck testing it before actually needing to run it for real also google maps tells me this is a 2.5km trip until the ferry, which breaks my brain as to why you wouldn't stay in the god damned taxi and skip the most hilariously risky step to save what would be a brisk 30 minute walk quote:Plus, Force knows how to craft a good escape plan, say prosecutors. faaaaaaart quote:Beyond alleged access to hundreds of thousands of dollars, Force knows the dark arts of the Dark Web, according to prosecutors, thanks to all of his government training in how to hang undercover with online criminal suspects.

Aleksei Vasiliev posted:http://www.forbes.com/sites/steveforbes/2015/04/02/how-bitcoin-will-end-world-poverty/ quote:If you live in a shantytown, you operate outside of the legal economy. It’s not that you want to operate outside of the legal economy, but you have no ownership of any property. Why not just write your name on the piece of corrugated iron that you call your front door, that's public and transparent too, and just as meaningful in court when the government already has a way to register who owns what land and it's not a loving blockchain. I can just see my government now: Well, we already have a system for recording who owns land, and charging people tax when land is transferred, but it looks like everyone has started using this blockchain thing and stopped paying us taxes, I guess we're irrelevant now, glory to the revolution. quote:A blockchainbased transaction is verified within ten minutes. It’s not verified within ten minutes for a credit card, which is why 5% to 10% of all transactions are rejected on the spot. It’s not verified until often days later. Even a check is not verified for days. And that is completely taken out of the system. So on day one, on day one, the retailer’s sales go up because they don’t have to reject the transaction. What is the problem that bitcoin allegedly solves here? Is it that if my credit card was maxxed out, and then I paid it off and then try to make a purchase 1 minute later, the credit card network still thinks my account is maxxed out? I don't know if that is the case anyway but even if it is, does this prevent 5-10% of transactions going through? Or is there some other reason why credit card transactions are rejected but needn't be? Is it just that CCs have transaction limits which you don't have in bitcoin, so basically I can go and give away my entire life savings in one transaction with bitcoin, and that's good?

you can get an instant rejection with credit cards but with bitcoin you may have to wait a few hours or days or weeks????? it's a good thing miners will always exist

you see, the major problem with the favelas is that you can't prove you own this shack you built illegally on land you don't own once we have the blockchain to individually assign blame to shack builders, we can sweep all the poor into the ocean legally

Holy poo poo that's amazing, I'd buy a chicken erryday from a bunch of badasses like that. My grandfather came back from the war, finished high school at like 21, opened a paint store in CT, then after like 30 years moved to FL and opened up a paint store there with my uncle. Did all right for the next 20 years or so until dying from lung cancer, yay smoking. Way less awesome than goddamn airdropped fried chicken but still way more awesome than bitcoins.

Bitcoin is great because it is exposing who in finance and 'business' are actually morons and will help proper companies never hire these people, while also showing which companies are lead by idiots and should therefore be avoided. Sorry about your boss being a credulous nincompoop, Sarah, hopefully this interview was an April Fool's joke released a day late
