After 10 years of bugs, hacks, scams, bans, civil war, breakthroughs and fortunes gained and lost, Bitcoin has spread like a virus around the world and has set the stage for a new financial system. Bitcoin's future has never been brighter, but much of the fun and positive spirit that got us here has been abstracted away. It's time for that to change.

The mission of Bitcoin 2019 is to reignite the BTC community by advancing shared goals and highlighting the people and organizations bringing them into reality. From the biggest miners and most active core devs to Fortune 500 companies and darknet markets, this will be a yearly gathering of old and new friends that inclusively reimagines the narrative around digital value and manifests an amenable answer to the question: “Why does this technology matter?”
This blurb is immensely annoying. There is the usual mix of well-meaning core types and total fucking scammers speaking.
Can't see the point of going myself, but you?

first time that I ever heard about the kind of usage of goofball that you refer to, so seems to me that your interpretation must be an extreme regionalism or perhaps a small group of your friends

You made me look it up.

...I was led to believe it was used in this sense in the USA as well.

Just thought I'd give you a heads up. (Damn, is "heads up" another Canadianism, based on hockey?)   Huh



"goofball" is close to be endearing (or at least neutral as in "silly") in USA.
Isn't it funny that the same word in a neighboring country means something totally different.

Or, wait..."mate" is not used in US.
Definitely, not a buddy/friend/acquaintance. Actually, it is more of a scientific term (as in "mating") than anything else.
"heads up" means the same, however.

Definition #2 places it firmly as a Canadianism but the other similar definitions are less specific and I was led to believe it was used in this sense in the USA as well. Maybe south of the border only criminals use it. It's more common in general use here.

It obviously has its roots in the prison system but it was first brought to my attention when I was playing in bars years ago. Someone told me it was an acronym for Go On Or Fight.

It is always taken very seriously. To not respond immediately is considered a sign of weakness and cowardice.

As for "a small group of my friends", I don't generally associate with the type of people who use that expression unless I'm being paid.

So in the last issue of We Are Completely Fucked I opined that humans are a lot like rats, and we will probably end up the same way.

You might wanna check this. more or less same.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
This week in crypto:

I wonder if Trollgoossens has comprehended yet that bitcoins don't actually exist and you're paying $4000 for a timestamp.


This is a retarded point, roach.  Bitcoins don't exist.. what a stupid-ass level of existentialism you are expressing, and I did not even know that you did weed or whatever it is that you been smoken to come up with that level of lameness.

Is there a BTC/USD wall observing connection, goofball?

Aren't we talking about bitcoin, here?

You must have gotten the wrong memo if you consider bitcoin to be a shit coin.  Perhaps you should go to one of the many alt coin threads.  You must be lost....

hahahahaha... already knew that you were lost because you sold all your bitcoins in the sub $700 arena.. and bought gold and silver with those proceeds and failed/refused to hedge your bets... go figure?... and you been trolling and lost ever since.. and seemingly bitter and resentful about your decision, too... .. hahahahahaha.. .pobrecito..... that's why there is a term named after you.  Eg.. "getting roached"    Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I've seen you throw the G word around a number of times. Are you aware how offensive it is to many people?

Where I live it is considered a challenge to fight. It is a word used to describe rapists, informers, pedophiles, etc.

It's the ultimate insult.

I use such variations of that expression to contain ideas like silly, goofy, retarded or stupid.  It is meant to be somewhat insulting because I am suggesting that the person is engaging in some kind of purposeful behavior.. such as in the case of Ibian bringing up racial superiority bullshit and suggesting impurities with the mixing of races and other baloney that seems hardly even relevant to this thread, except that he wants to have a platform for baloney talk.

Anyhow, first time that I ever heard about the kind of usage of goofball that you refer to, so seems to me that your interpretation must be an extreme regionalism or perhaps a small group of your friends?  So does not really seem to apply either to how I am using it or to all of a sudden consider some kind of novel meaning to otherwise commonly understood usage.   

In other words, I am neither convinced that my usage is that level of offensive on a general usage level nor dissuaded from any desire to use it, as I consider to be appropriate, such as in the cases that I already have used such expression variations..

14-Year-Old WinRAR Exploit Allegedly Threatens Crypto Wallets

According to a user on the Bitcoin subreddit, there is an exploit on a common version of WinRAR that enables the potential theft of coins. The bug, which allowed executable code to be inserted on a system after opening a RAR file, has apparently existed for 14 years but is only recently coming to light. Now that it’s common knowledge, exploits are likely to be written for unpatched systems.

Nice beer, I felt thirsty when I saw the cold beer you've been shown. Cheesy
I'm not nutildah but maybe we're just the same, I'd like to drink beer too.

Btw, Is there xhomerx10? I just want to say thank you to him for a nice hat.

If you want to give me an idea of what you would like by sending me a PM I will make one for you.

Bitcoin Whale May Have Finished Selling After $230 Million Move

A bitcoin whale that has been accumulating 113,000 BTC ($440 million) since 2014 may have finished selling after ₿60,000 ($230 million) was moved at the end of last month, emptying the fourth biggest bitcoin wallet.

The address in question was largely buying throughout much of 2017, but turned to selling last year and now may have finally sold everything.

Just noticed you added 7-Zip when I replied to you. Wouldn't use anything else. Open source FTW.

Yet another reason to use cold storage. Keep those coins (or at least their keys) away from the internet.
