Brazils President. A well armed people can't be enslaved by tyrants.
https://twitter.com/i/status/1264263778620911616

thats a simple statement, while almost all simple statements turn out to be false.
Brazil got quite a number of gunshot kills per 100.000 nationals.
Too low for Nutsonaro?

Gunshot kills made by criminals to unarmed citizens who can't defend themselves, That's what he is changing.
If you know that you might get shot yourself if you shoot someone, you just might think twice before you shoot.
If good people have guns, bad people will hesitate to shoot them = fewer gun kills, how is that so hard for the stupid left to understand.

Sir, the underlying problems are lack of education and empathy. Guns only scrape the surface, bullets don't decide between good or bad.
How can guns stop madness? It's not impossible. They never did. The "bad" don't think twice, and there are not many more dangerous things than "good" people with guns. The "good" german people also just only wanted the best for themselves, which they thought (or became taught) is the best for all. And we all know in what a nightmare this was turning. Now, one of the mistakes in understanding is through not having to experience this kind of nightmare, so i just refer to the "lack of empathy" aspect i mentioned earlier, because education can't be the main problem here, don't you agree?
And well, there ARE stupid leftists, as well as stupid rightists. Remember the bell curve? I'd try to be like in the middle in this regards.

Communism is only ever imposed on a disarmed population. This alone is reason enough to never give up the 2nd.

Or...why a certain part of society champions disarming the population...

Yes. Communists are the dysgenic part of the population I mentioned a few posts up. The meme that "communists are not human" is literal truth. And there are more of them than ever before, and next generation there will be even more.

Tangentially, Brazil is looking better and better as a living destination. It's promising to see that Bolsonaro is trying to arm the population. I expect the sky high crime rate to be moderated within a few years, as long as Bolsonaro is still alive.

That's some statement.
I agree, let's wait for the statistical outcomes within the next few years, if this goes on.

@Ibian: Your use of the term "dysgenic" proves that i'm right with the education part.

Your use of Nutsonaro proves that you are a worthless twat.

Yeah, gimme your worst!
U serious?  

The facts and data don't really back that up at all though do they.
I've lived in the USA, and I've lived in Australia. Much, much, much less chance of being shot in Australia. That's a cold hard fact, no matter what you want to believe.

There is a decent argument to made about the enslaved by tyrants thing. Maybe a lot more gun deaths are worth that. But arguing from a "safer with more guns" perspective is not backed by anything except your feelings.

Well, actually, there _is_ a lot of data to back up such a statement. Your anecdote, trying to conflate two different cultures, is what's irrelevant here.

Scholarly data in the US indisputably show that, in areas where gun bans are lifted, violent crime diminishes.

Cite?

Oh for fucks sake. Google it. Yogi is right on this one, it's not controversial or even up for debate.

Compared to 22 other high-income nations, the U.S. gun-related homicide rate is 25 times higher.[17] Although it has half the population of the other 22 nations combined, the U.S. had 82 percent of global gun deaths, 90 percent of all women killed with guns, 91 percent of children under 14 and 92 percent of young people between ages 15 and 24 killed with guns.

Guns seem to really help.
If it's mainly only the gun and ammunition manufacturers who are helped by them the most, but hey... We're just gonna sell this with the "freedom" tag, what could go wrong?

You are one of the dysgenic people. None of that shit matters, even if it was true. The only thing that matters is, is the state going to kill a large part of the population? That's what communists do. And they can only do it to a disarmed population.

https://blog.jim.com/economics/lockdown/

it was never about deaths it was about not overwhelming the hospital system in the USA and Sweden

but with 1 payer in Sweden and more slack in beds..that is why they are close. Sweden with a 1 payer

medical plan and beds per capita would be right up there even more so than the USA. Sweden also had

testing in place a couple of months ago and ramped up which we have yet to do.

So in reality Sweden is looking worse as well with all that in place, unlike Germany. IMHO.

The USA issue is it a complete cluster due to political games and denial by the Executive Branch

damn hard to play catchup with the pandemic math. Anyway, what do I know? What comes to mind

is both Sweden and the USA missed the boat on how to approach this, in 20/20 hindsight.

1) Ibian is on deep more ignore.
2) Doing a quick google on
"does violent crime diminish when gun bans are lifted"

Did not bring up many studies that supported this assertion. Perhaps you have to use a different query?

Pls support your sources. Preferably with scholarly research, impact factor > 3 would be a start.

Or just say it's your opinion and be done with it. I'm always ok with bullshit, just like to ensure it's identified as such.

Hello all.

Apologies for the sparse reporting lately..a family member in a high risk job had to be tested again over the weekend..results....NEGATIVE.  Prayers answered...thank you.

Needless to say...have been pretty stressed out...as I am sure many of you are.

Hearing a couple of similar reports from other observers...all I can say is ...my thoughts and prayers continue to be with all of you.

We will carry on.


-----
the evening wall report



Bitcoin is trading below $9k on surprisingly strong volumes over the weekend. A dip below the 26 day MA has the Bulls fighting for support between $8.8k and $8.9k. Looking at the cloud we see deformations along the top of a support zone indicating stresses are likely to be high in this region. Meaning we could see increased volatility as we head into Tuesday and the rest of the trading week.

D


For all the marbles really..how bitcoin reacts over the next couple of months is critical...   

On the edge of a reciprocal deep pool caused by the March 12th dip in the cloud..will harmonics draw the price downward before halving pressures can exert continued upwards pressure?    #dyor

Happy Pizza Day, WO,s
Accompany with a good wine or champagne at the right temperature.

the dude approves this message

An evening with this guy would probably be much more interesting TBH.

Are you sick, infofront?



Your wife must be nearby.

At least the girl on the table is wearing pants. That is hygienic and helps to prevent the spread of disease.

Now, how the hell does the woman on the bed get an ass like that? Hyper-impressed.

Look, I can kind of understand why BCH has some support. I think it's stupid, but I can see it.

But why the fuck would anyone continue to think faktoshi and BSV has any validity what-so-ever. He clearly has no idea what he is talking about. He had to plagiarise his phD, despite going to pretty much the worst University in Australia. He has been caught lying 987,392 987,393 times. He is a state loving boot licker. WTF is going on in these people's heads.

It is the big blocker's ultimate experiment.  They will never give up. 

Most of that community needs a leader, and they believe in centralization whether they know it or not.  They feel that authority grants security.  After all it is the way the world has been built.

So prepare for a new figurehead.  I still think it will be Daniel.  Hopefully this damages the momentum enough to push them further into obscurity.  But I am not convinced it will.

They are like termites.

Alright I am annoyed and saddened and really fucking tired. Also down to just one merit, but I will give it to the best youngster, newbie or kid who can write a decent - short will do fine - riposte to the kindergarten shit that is happening over here:

Of course I have sympathy for our fallen ex-member mindrust who has gone back 5 years in his understanding of bitcoin, but please do your best to put cobra at least in his place, the beginners and help section.

Satoshi Nakamoto left after the release of Bitcoin version 0.3.9
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin_Core

Does version 0.3.9 still communicate with the current Bitcoin network? Yes.
Does version 0.3.9 communicate with the BCH or BSV forks? No.

No need to guess which network is Bitcoin.

At least if Brazil legalizes guns we can start seriously considering it as a seastead destination.

The Atlantic Ocean off of Brazil is a vast open area with no hurricanes and low waves.

We have not considered it due to the crime.

Brazil is in serious battle with Chinese takeover. China invested heavy in the country especially in media outleds. Braziliens have a fight on ther hands.
Argentine non-official already communist. Unique Enabling Circulation Certificate (CUHC), cant move without it.
For sea-steads something like Tanzania, Madagascar or Seyshells more viable options, maybe.

Photoshop? I mean, I'm sure it's a fine ass and all (especially given the previously called out thumb grips), but it's looking to me as if there is some lateral distortion going on there.

Meh. Cobra just being edgy for the sake of presenting some edge. As is their wont.

When's the last time you honestly valued their opinions?

JJG should feel honored that they actually read his entire response though.

Does version 0.3.9 still communicate with the current Bitcoin network? Yes.
Does version 0.3.9 communicate with the BCH or BSV forks? No.

Define 'communicate with'. My keys generated under 0.3.9 spend just fine on BCH and BSV networks.

"Communicate" means a back-and-forth interaction. Sweeping old private keys is a 1-way interaction. Satoshi-era builds sync to the current Bitcoin blockchain*; BCH and BSV clients do not.

*

The Bitcoin software from satoshi syncs the current bitcoin chain (well, until it hits a bug with blocks over 500k, but if you fix that it keeps on syncing).

BSV OTOH is full of shitcoin features like the broken oscillating difficulty adjustment. Satoshi's (the real one, not your apparently drug addled maniac pretender) software rejects that stuff with a quickness.

Bitcoin, Gold are Not Rising Because of Major Market Manipulation

Researchers at the University of Sussex Business School’s CryptoMarketRisk project team tracked trades across the safe-haven markets since March 2020. The analysis led them to spot large sell orders on gold futures, a literal pump-and-dump on copper futures, and large spoofing orders on bitcoin derivative exchanges.

Thanks Paashaas, very informative.

how's everyone... I had to take a long time off. I moved everywhere until I could (thanks covid19).
Now I'm based in Europe ( ) again.
Probably will be more active here, don't know.
