I learned about 3D printing machines and the essentials to build one yourself.
I also learned a valueable lesson in life about appreciation of people around me.

The weak interaction is the only known interaction which does not conserve parity; it is left-right asymmetric.

And is that why our heart is on the left side?  (this is almost a serious question)

Mine is set for that time zone too, because I need to match up forum posts to block chain transaction times.

You're right about the auto detect, for I just checked that out. Even though I penned middle, I meant eastern Atlantic Ocean in regard to the US, with BMT in mind--4 time zones east of NYC.

That said, why is Sonny's local time zone as such?

Could be he's using a proxy or Tor or he's traveling.

I can understand why some of the folks are a little worried about the whole thing, and his sad life story doesn't really help either. But I wouldn't dare jump to any conclusions mostly because I'm not involved.

That said...

When one first signs up on this forum, a default time zone is used. Can anybody tell me if this is accurate? Otherwise this guy is in Europe or the middle of the Atlantic Ocean: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bflsonny-67253

That's GMT, i.e. UK.
And I also believe that's the default timezone. At least I remember having had to change my timezone.

EDIT: the forum software does auto-detect. But why would he be in the middle of the Atlantic?

I returned from vacation after having my mining rigs off for two weeks and looked up my electric use. My kids stayed home and just the wife and I were gone. I learned that mining Bitcoins is far more expensive in electric cost than I thought it was and I owe an apology to my kids.

Solution: Have kids power your rigs via giant hamster wheel powered generator. You get to mine and the kids get exercise, its a win-win!!

I think that number 42 tattooed on his arm is significant, for I've seen it mentioned on this forum many a times.


The number tattooed is 12, for D12 his rap group.

You're new here, aren't you? When Phinn says it's 42, it's 42.  Grin
