Subways are largely owned by franchisees and not corporate, apparently the Subway thing was a gimmick around 2013 being done by a franchise owner that was big into Coinbase, you can strike that off the list at this point! Like there's one in philly and one in russia and one in brazil, in other words, Subway aint doing poo poo.

Ahahahaha the guy that wrote a self published book about how bitcoins are a scam is now going to self publish a book about how the AI stuff everyone is excited about is a scam next!! HOLY gently caress He really, really is a professional debunker rationalwiki host and wikipedia editor that goes around finding whatever is hot and deciding it's a scam that only he is smart enough to see through. And this is the prophet buttcoin goons rallied behind!! Un loving believable. Let me ask you this now, dear reader: Please don't buy any more of this idiot's books folks, or do it if you want I guess it's your life, good luck and namaste.

cool. I've been speculating on coinbase off and on for a few years, mostly when i see news about bitcoin and it reminds me that it exists lol. I bought $1000 worth back at 5000 ish so i'll be happy to come out of it with a couple hundred on top

AI is a scam. The only reason that its technology seems to be progressing is because the definition of AI is becoming looser and looser.

"Haha these cars literally driving themselves? That people have been working on for years? Massive advancements in the types and functionality of neural networks? What a loving scam!!" How can Intel, Nvidia, IBM, Facebook, Google, etc participate in such a scam?? If only they were as smart as buttcoin readers they could save billions avoiding that scam. Apple and Google and Microsoft and Samsung iterating on AI assistants? Fell for a scam too. It's very sad. If only they had read the rationalwiki, they could have been warned. Maybe a self published book from a unix sysadmin that knows nothing about finance or AI will do the trick though.

wait wait wait... you think self-driving cars are running on artificial intelligence? hey guys im currently running the artificial intelligence microsoft office 2013 but is it worth updating to the artificial intelligence office 2017? also whats the deal with the artificial intelligence android 8? is it really all that much better than artificial intelligence android 7 (which is really pretty smart already) i like how youve reverted to your pouty "you guys are just wrong anyway" state after all your failure to reason out an argument for your views on bitcoin being the currency of the future and not the most obviously identified scam of the kind where a constant supply of new investors are perpetually required to pay off the older investors Ham Sandwiches posted:knows nothing about finance or AI

Hi Vortmax, an entry on the list was wrong. The thing is, all those merchants listed still do accept bitcoins. That really is a thing that's happening. So, the updated list is the correct one - I hope it's helpful.

vortmax posted:But why didn't you check it before? Why only after you're caught? And why should anyone listen to you and your "research"? What kind of answer are you looking for here? So a guy asked which merchants accept bitcoins, I checked some third party websites and verified several. some franchises of Subway accepted bitcoins (and still do), just not all of them. In this case, someone overstated a few franchisees accepting bitcoin as Subway accepting bitcoin, and the google results indicated that it was the thing, so I left it on the list! I hope that the more updated list is helpful as a reference, and apologize for including Subway (all franchises) when it should be Subway (3 franchisees that love loving bitcoins, you won't be near any)
