This is a monstrous fuckup of enormous proportions, if this is true then their "trading engine" is broken beyond repair (it wouldn't even deserve the name "trading engine" anymore) and should be taken down and replaced by something else immediately!
Lucky it's a free market then and you can just take your business elsewhere, innit?

Does anyone know an easy way of showing more than two browser windows on one screen? I use my TV as my monitor and I know you can split into two easy but is there any easy way to split them into four or more? Without the address bar being at the top? I've tried to do this but it ends up looking funny. It's just so I can watch more than 2 live price feeds at once. There's probably a website that can do all this in one window but I'm not aware of this.


F11   ?




I tried making some of my windows smaller and did that - it only takes the current tab full screen  Cry

Fine, you're arrogant because you can't stop talking about how much better you are than US citizens Tongue.

You don't know shit about what has happened to our populace and our land.  Corporations and wealthy individuals own everything.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wealth_inequality_in_the_United_States

BTW, I don't buy the whole capitalist-socialist dichotomy.  Everything is shades of gray, and it is the extremes you have to watch out for.

You seem to want to restrict the term arrogance to what is probably better termed "US exceptionalism".  Yes, this is a form of arrogance, but arrogance can take many forms.
i don't have much of an opinion of u.s. citizens really. but the consensus about them is well established. i also don't buy the capitalist-socialist dichotomy... as it's commonly illustrated.

i think the perceived arrogance of people from the US is much due to US exceptionalism, yes -- i was making that point because that is what non-US folks are exposed to. but i am talking about the dictionary definition of "arrogance".

sure, there is great wealth inequality in the u.s. that doesn't mean there isn't far greater wealth inequality elsewhere, such as in South America. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/32/Gini_Coefficient_World_CIA_Report_2009.svg

it also doesn't speak to the effect of historic exploitation of the southern hemisphere by the north. over 53% of world net worth (based on PPP) is concentrated in North America and Europe, which has less then 15% of world population. when we talk about wealth inequality, surely comparing that of the u.s. with that of that of bolivia is sort of ridiculous, right? are we talking about being entitled to basic human necessities, perhaps education? or are we talking about being entitled to a basic minimum income? or big screen tvs? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_of_wealth

in the u.s., when people complain about entitlements, i hear complaints about people buying big screen tvs with welfare checks. (i take that with grain of salt) surely, you don't think that these are the sort of entitlements that Brazilians seek? that they are arrogant for fighting for? especially given the nature of wealth inequality?

am i arrogant for fighting for a better education system for my children? i must feel so self-important?  Smiley

it's one thing if the state does not exists. it's another thing if the state will exists for the forseeable future, and exploits, and allows exploitation. in the latter case, i think it is only reasonable for people to try to reform the state, to legally prescribe what had once been unwritten -- their ownership, their rights, their dignity. even if i do not support reformism. i still do not see this as arrogance. someone who is arrogant by definition does not see themselves as equal to others.

You're all right to hold on to some for the future, and I kept a couple just in case, but it does feel really good to have made money and cashed out. For many of the dream chasers here cashing out is a bedtime fantasy. I don't want to dream about it anymore. At what point do you cash out? At retirement or when you have a big purchase and need the money? Never? I hope the price goes to a million a coin and we are all rich off a few coins but I most likely won't live long enough to see that happen.

I haven't spent a coin since Jeremy was selling Amazon cards to Americans. So I've been saving for a long time. Time to spend!

How many coins did you cash out in total?

Just over 1800.

Edit: that's all I've ever had which includes spending at SpendBitcoins.

How are you planning to withdraw it from Gox though? Gonna take the 5% extortion fee?

That can't be helped. I may as well tell you, it's almost over now. I have several family members receiving from accounts I helped them make. They will receive the funds and transfer to me slowly. The extortion fee isn't as bad as the tax will be.

There is limit $10k USD/ month at gox. -> $500k is 50 man-months :-)  (if any)

That's right. That's why you need family or really, really close friends.

Really? Did they changed that recently? When I traded on Gox trusted status (apostilled docs) got you $100k daily for a max. of $500k monthly.

People are so panicky. Crazy. If someone even farts people just hit the sell button in total panic.

Noobs need more testicular fortitude. One might start by ignoring the trolls who scream crash/manipulation/FUD every time they go short.

rampion,

you abhor debt, but at the same time are dumbfounded why he would sell off his bitcoins so that he can get out of debt.

I sold hundreds of bitcoins back in march/april to eliminate myself of debt, and i regret NOTHING.

I see, its just that it takes a while to me to understand because i've NEVER been in debt in my life. NEVER.

In debt or held a debt? Don't they have credit cards in Transylvania?

Yes they have, but I never use them for my personal expenses, I use debit cards. Why I shouldnt use the money I already have, instead of the one that I will have? Good to have them in case there is an emergency, but I why using them systematically and recurrently? Its plain retarded in my book.
I can agree with that and I too only use debit cards, I might not have much money but I'd rather spend it all on myself than have a chunk go in credit card charges, that's like volunteering to pay extra tax.

Guilty as charged!  I guess though the gods must have been looking out for me because I didn't fill in the fields correctly so it didn't register the "sell".  Undecided

Guess I'll count my blessings and hold like Leonidas!

Examples of good debt -


Not good debt, just less-bad debt.

Debt is a millstone and makes a the borrower a slave of the lender. Take it from someone who knows.

Debt is not bad as long as it it good debt,

Examples of good debt -
homes that you have equity in (tax right offs)
student loans if you have to have them (dont go to extreme, study your major, job opputunities and wages after graduation) - Also dont pay these off first, pay all other things off, incase you die no others have to pay for (unlike a mortage)
12 months same as cash - Do this all the time with furniture, tvs and such pay it off in 10 months so its not on a credit card and your cash is not upfront

Bad debt
Large car loans, no need to drive a $30k new car when a $3k dollar nice one works
Credit Card, - Yes everyone needs a credit card to pay for things but find a good rate, and pay it off within 6 months


Might be, not mi cup of tea. I guess that when you are used to debt you just do not feel any stress by owing money recurrently and consistently, month after month. I prefer to abhor it as a matter of principle.
