I know what you're referring to, I can't remember whether it was a TCC goon or (more likely) someone from Bluelight but I wish I could find it again. IIRC he ordered some designer chemical because he thought the structural formula looked like it ought to get you high or something. As far as he knew, it had never been tested on humans (or any other animal). He shared it with his girlfriend, it gave them a buzz and shut down all the oil glands in their skin. They turned scaly, all their hair fell out, and their palms and heels cracked open. They started to recover after a week or so but his girlfriend was pretty upset because what little hair grew back was patchy and white.

Between an old-fashioned overdose, or blood poisoning from not getting a gangrenous limb amputated, or getting caught by a side effect they had no clue would occur, it's a race to see what kills them first. I have to think that the number of people who do research chemicals recreationally and manage to make it to 50 is vanishingly small.

A while ago I got a really bad cold so went to a doctor. He prescribed some big-rear end bottle of unadulterated codeine syrup to stop me coughing at night so I could sleep. At no point did I even consider chugging the thing, and actually only needed 1/3 the bottle so I had like a whole gram of codeine phosphate chilling out in the back of my fridge (until it expired and I binned it).

That's true with regard to bitcoin mining, but quantum computing would also fundamentally break bitcoin. You'd be pretty easily able to compute a private key from any public key, so you'd be able to take whatever bitcoins from any wallet you wanted. People have been thinking of ways to counteract these private-public key vulnerabilities for awhile, but bitcoin is currently still vulnerable to such a thing. But that would require actually having a quantum computer large enough to accomplish this. And it would require using that quantum computer to steal bitcoins instead of using it in countless other, more productive ways.

Also brasilians wouldn't let a foreign man sleep with their daughter, small house or no Also no matter how hot it is, they don't go naked to bed together Also the whole "yeah there was an officer who knew what Bitcoin was" years ago in a Podunk part of Brazil Sounds like a first worlder making up a story about his amazing trip to the jungles, saved of course by Bitcoin

Brazil.txt reads to me like this guy writing his own pedo wish-fulfillment porn about banging a 15 yo Brazilian girl. He just changed the "climax" of the story because he was worried about the mods pulling a straight CP story (good job with that buddy, it's perfectly okay now) and tacked on some poo poo about Buttcoins on the end so he'd have a excuse to post it. Redditor (this did come from Reddit right?) wants to bang underage girls. Sunrise, sunset.

Can you imagine if actual corporations decided to get into BC? They would eat Bitcoiners alive. Why on Earth Bitcoiners think that anyone with real power would be willing to allow a bunch of disconnected early adopters to be the Elite has never made sense to me.

Because sad rear end in a top hat buy into the myth that the rich are somehow better, and to be better must mean that you should be rich, and it bugs them to the point of distraction that they aren't. It's the mentality of someone who fumes with envy over some guy driving a supercar that costs most than all of the possessions his extended family owns, yet ignores that the rich ubermensch is driving his Lambo in the dead of winter and is already showing signs of rust.

A country would just make butt coin v2 with them being the early adopter. You're still giving them too much credit. A business or a country has no reason to use a bitcoin-like system. All of the potentially desirable qualities of such a system (cryptographically-secure electronic payments, distributed accounting) exist in other forms without the downside of having to burn enough electricity to power a small country in order to run it. A commonly found thing in the YOSPOS thread is that a lot of idiot bitcoiners on reddit think that Satoshi invented cryptography and distributed databases, so to them any payment system that uses cryptography is now just a derivative of bitcoin. A sort of awkward labeling situation has been created where businesses want to appeal to idiot VCs so they'll say that they're adopting blockchain technology when what they really mean is that they're using a distributed database with cryptography to sign transactions, tools that were in use decades before bitcoin ever existed. All of the proof of work bitcoin mining poo poo built on top of a system like this is worthless to a business.
