One of the most amazing things about Bitcointalk forums wasn't just how earnest all of these dumbass 'entrepreneurs' were but how much good advice they were actually given by no-poo poo experts in various fields. Like just off the top of my head you had the aforementioned famous "help me buy, renovate and commit massive copyright fraud in a theatre" project by our dear friend logansryche, and if you read the thead members with jobs in construction, music production and other good Samaritans all give advice (such as "it's illegal to stream movies from Netflix in a cinemas" and "you need to focus more on making sure the building is habitable and less on concession candy") and it's all ignored by the amazing bitcoin man-child. There was also the Bitcoin camgirl project (possibly also by logansryche!) where an actual professional camsite runner steps in to give a huge amount of great advice about how to run a camsite and the project leader ignores it all, assumes she's trying to pitch herself to him for a job, and calls her a whore. That forum had a huge amount of expertise and wellwishers in it and it was all loving wasted on twenty year-old libertarian dunning-kruggerayns.

As for Tailspin, not only did he plan to just buy the rights, but he also believed that Disney would just do it without hesitation because they weren't doing anything with it in the meantime. As if there's no benefit to holding copyright at all. Razorwired posted:I know of two independent small screens. One in my current town and one in my childhood town.

Another logansryche 'company' was printing custom guitar picks with any logo you want on them. Including copyrighted stuff because he read the words 'fair use' online once and had zero idea what it actually meant. He also ran some scrapping company for a small amount of time, I'm sure he was equally inept at that too. Naturally, there's a thread - https://www.scrapmetalforum.com/day-life-scrapper/26442-logansryche-thread.html He's always easy to find because he uses the same username everywhere (so 99% sure the guy trying to feel superior to the camgirls wasn't him, he's not smart enough to even poorly pretend to be someone else). e: lol, someone bought the theater and is renovating it. Looks like it's some people who own a distillery, so have more than $5 to their name at least. https://www.facebook.com/thehubtheater EL BROMANCE fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Dec 4, 2018 |

Ah, that rochelle hub thread is always such a blast from the past, especially his obsession with the concession aspect. Yes, the theater that we can now see on that Facebook link needed incredibly expensive, complete interior tear out had him mention the concessions this many times on the first page of posts alone.quote:It's alot of money but alot of things needed to be taken into consideration like the purchase of the building itself and new concession equipment. quote:The add stated that all concession and cinema equipment are included but have no idea if the cinema equipment is digital or still using analog reels or what. I know from looking at the concession stand and equipment, that will need to be replaced. I put this project at $350,000 for new concession equipment and new digital equipment including speakers and projectors and the like, but it'll be significantly more if walls need replacing and wiring need to be redone. quote:Of course, it wouldn't be just me running the show, as I will eventually need employees to run the concession stand and run the projection booths plus a clean up crew. quote:If you go to the site I've listed, it lists the complete bill of materials including all new concession equipment, counter tops, carpet, chairs, sound, etc...

Maybe I'm reading it incorrectly, but he's talking about using melting points to separate silver from copper, and using the 99% he already has to top up the remaining weight. I also remember there being pictures of self-stamped ingots.

As someone who took a class once on recycling metals, this is extremely difficult. It takes great technical knowledge, great skill, and great investment in equipment. The good news is that if you could travel back in time, you'd find that only gullible weirdos were into Bitcoin back then and might have bought the product without knowing any better.
