I hate people who... ahh... fuck it...
Just because BFL are a terrible asic company to do business with doesn't mean we should pigeon hole every other BTC Asic company as the same.
I don't think anyone would disagree with this ASIC company comparison at all.
With regard to stereotyping in general, what can I say. Nobody is perfect. Our life experiences shape who we are. But yeah, a little bit of "foot-in-mouth" due to having a degree of respect for Bick. If you've never been rudely shrugged off by a Quebecois IN MONTREAL because you lack the ability to speak French, and they refuse to speak English, then, well, I guess I'm the asshole...

I am a Quebecois... nothing nice to say about me?
If you are one of those fruits that turns their noses up to people who speak English, or if you are one of those people that wants to separate from the rest of Canada (even though Canada wants nothing to do with you, and would gladly show you the door) ... well, then I guess you're the first nice one I've met TBH.
I don't genuinely hate many things in this world. In no particular order; Scientology, Smug Atheists, Quebecois, Butterfly Labs / Josh Zerlan, Woman Beaters, Pedophiles, Rapists as examples, but yeah, don't like the Quebecois very much
You have a right to your opinions but stereotyping and generalizations of people does not reflect kindly on yourself. There are bad apples in every crowd. Just because BFL are a terrible asic company to do business with doesn't mean we should pigeon hole every other BTC Asic company as the same.
Its not About hating people or races. ITS About hating stealing BFL and asshole josh !!
Lets hate and kill BFL and not make war...

EDIT: WRT to dislike of Quebecois, I should qualify that as separatists, or other radicals who don't wish to interact-with or integrate with the English speaking populace. I recognize in retrospect, my usage of "Quebecois" was applied too broad and inaccurately. FWIW...
Speaking from experience, I really can't say anything nice about the Québécois.
Honestly, these guys and Butterfly Labs are meant for each other.
Birds of a feather, and so on and so forth...

I will NEVER buy from BFL
I will NEVER buy a BFL UNIT. USED or NEW
I will NEVER buy a product with a BFL CHIP in it.
Josh needs a big black dick constantly up his ass to be able to empathize what his customers have felt over the past year.
The GUY is a CON man's CON man.

Why bother ordering? You'll be able to buy them anywhere for at least a third of the sticker price.

I will be there for sure, but I actually have the perfect venue for meet-ups in Montreal. And it can be a permanent venue too. Is there any need for that?
It is very well located on St-Laurent, between Sherbrooke and Prince Arthur.
Jake.Hobson reads similarly to Jacobson, of which he is since he state in a post that he does own the building.

Poor Joshie, never remembers to include the year in his statements. Month of a unknown year only goes so far.

So, a multi-million dollar Monarch order was placed.
Gotta love the front of the building.
Honey, how much hash did you want me to buy? I'm there now.
Not hash! Hashing power! Hashing power! And you call yourself a nuclear psychic.

It might be interesting to offer courses on setting up wallet and other basics of Bitcoins especially in two streams, English and French, would be good.
Yeah, that's a good point. We will probably be the first place people come complain if they get their BTC stolen. No worries about the French part, I'm one of those "racist nazi" quebecers that abide by our "language police". Grin

Re: Is the title " Bitcoin Embassy " appropriate?
Sounds a little political.
What about Bitcoin Institute or Bitcoin Bureau? Huh
Just to specify a point that may be uncommon to people around here. The only official language in Québec province is French and we have laws in place to protect our french heritage, mainly to prevent english assimilation. The most famous law is named the law 101 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charter_of_the_French_Language). To put it simply, the name of the place MUST be in French. There is some exceptions in the law, "Bitcoin" could fall under those exceptions easily, but not general terms like "embassy" or "institute". "Bureau" could work though, we have the same in french.
All this to say, I know how that law works and I currently have a name I'm working on right now. I'm pretty confident in it and I think it's a really elegant solution to all this. I'll keep you informed.

Absolutely you must offer offshore mining.
That's something really interesting to consider. Didn't taught of it, thanks!

Hola!
From Canada, we're a duo of great miners willing to take over the world with Bitcoins! Grin
I've been lurking the forums for around 4 months, and I wanted to comment on some topics. Since there are rules on this forum, I'm going to respect them. So here's the first post!

Ok, so we are helping Josh with a realistic March 2014 shipping.
What will be the projected network hash rate?
What would will an under performing Monarch make in March 2014?
What are these Monarch's going to need PSU / PDU and control or back plane wise?
Given what we have seen in the past from BFL there is a lot of unanswered design questions here and with little or no guidance on what the finished product will be able to do, what it will cost in terms of 'accessories' to get this Monarch hashing for the user seems to me to be a good place to question this design.
Failure to plan.

The current expected date for our chips out of the foundry is early December. Obviously nothing will be shipping in November. Projected target is end of December but that is, as usual, subject to change. When I have more info I will share it.
Thus, according to Josh's own figures as elaborated on, HashTrade shouldn't expect delivery no earlier than late March, with all subsequent pre-orders placed after that wall purchase not being shipped till mid April, at the extreme earliest.
There is no way that BFL can sugarcoat an earlier shipping date, for it would 100% negate the already timeline stated by Josh, now push backed proportionally.
~TMIBITW
Besides....they never told anyone what their initial lot size was to begin with. We will call it...shrinking the Lots expectations to cover the first Monarch customers.
Ol' Josh is already saying December/January when before he was saying November/December.
November seems to have gone poof and no one can get him to remember...apparently.
