I do not believe the clock is publicly funded.

If money printing presses send money to Central Banks, and CBs buy Amazon stocks, and Jeff Bezos uses that investment money to fund the clock, then....

yes it is. The public is paying for it one way or another.
That can only be partially true, as in whatever percentage of equity is owned by CBs was the percentage of the clock funded by the public. If you tried to argue otherwise you'd imply the argument that everything that has ever been paid for with any of the (fiat) money in circulation was funded by the public.

It's more the timing of it than the actual thing itself. Our world economies are going down the shitter, our nation debts are soaring, wages haven't budged in a decade, they're still printing money by the billions per month, and inflation is settling in... all whist billionaires are erecting needless or inane monuments. Sounds like the years leading up to the fall of empires.

Actually, I'm more annoyed by the fact that Bill Gates doesn't fkn know the going price of bananas. They are so out of touch with reality it isn't even funny.

I'm not sure what your deal is, yo, but my chocolate starfish could use a good tongue-banging.
The number and variety of ways you have to express this single concept is mind-boggling (and quite entertaining). One more reason to stick to this thread for me  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

So you can listen to him talking about his asshole? Weirdest reason to commit to reading this thread.

edit/ well, I guess except insofar as the patron is a beneficiary of the debt economy, still, don't hate the player...

You know the world is going to shit when one rich tech billionaire is spending $42M to build a 10,000 year mechanical clock and bury it under a mountain, while another rich tech billionaire cannot tell you the current price of common goods found in a grocery store.  Roll Eyes

Seriously, fk those guys and their shitty tech.  Angry
What do you mean? Aren't you supposed to by up entire super markets for great deals on your food?

I'm not a billionaire and I have no fucking clue what the price of Tide pods is so that's kind of meh.

The clock thing is lame. More spaceships, fewer clocks is what I want from my Prime membership.

the 10,000 year clock is awesome

$42M could feed a lot of people in Venezuela too. But I guess clocks that will outlast humanity are more important.

Hey, maybe the androids can dig it up and put it in one of their "Humanity Museums" one day?


You can't feed EVERYONE (worldwide) because, if you do, population will keep increasing uncontrollably until a point where you will not be able to feed them... nor yourself.

OTH, I like the way of doing charity of organizations like the Bill Gates Foundation and the likes.

It's better to help people get their shit together than just feeding them without solving the core problem (ie: Venezuela foolish dictatorship).

Oh come now Torque.

We both know that all "aid" does is destroy anyone actually attempting to get local production going.

Most of my btc will be passed down when I'm dead

what's the point? so your descendants indulge themselves with parties, etc.?
it is better to inherit income generating assets, which you can buy with bitcoin once it is at a relative steady state level (100k, 1mil or more).


Yeah fuck that, your family can inherit property, land etc when you die. When bitcoin reaches $50,000 plus per coin I intend to enjoy a luxurious life.

Here we go again next stop 9k

Like I said, I'm buying drinks for the thread if we see it touch the $8k's again this year.

Too much resistance down to $9k.

I don't see it happening.

Beer-filled gut-bacteria tells me things will even out around $9.5k before resuming upward momentum.
Below 9,000$ is still possible, there are 2 scenarios I see on Bitcoin going down. The first scenario is Bitcoin will for a right shoulder with its lowest price at 9,200$, the 2nd scenario is 9,200$ is broken and it will continue to what people are calling the real 5th wave which is around the 4,500$ level. Right now I am just observing the prices as my money is still in Fiat so I am comfortable to what is happening to Bitcoin. Hopefully this will be the last dip of the year as I know a lot of people have stacked up their position by now.

I rather think so.

It doesn't really seem like this dump has it.
