Give Smooth a break.  He's had to deal with the Monero scam thread, and now he's got James in his face.  The little victories give him the confidence boost he needs.

Let me pick apart the last statement without using any spelling/grammar nitpicks. "I think both twins will be winners!"

Over what period of time do you feel that BBR/XMR will both be winners? There is a cost to investing in two anoncoins - why would anyone pick the one with fewer merits over the long run? IMO, one coin will grab the majority of the market share until something superior displaces it entirely.

I'm tired of all this Boolberry crap, the only reason anyone is pumping this junk is because the coins became 40 times cheaper than Monero and everyone now has huge stacks of these silly coins hoping to become rich, they are so worthless even I own thousands of Boolberry's, they cost such a small percent of my networth it made sense.

If anyone is wondering, I angered James in the Boolberry thread and he pumped the coin up, I say thankyou for that, because now I have even more Monero and still enough Boolberry to ride your supernetwork IPO and make even more Monero.

It would make me so happy for these Boolberry's to hit zero and never return, and these silly myths about the magnificent Zoidberg and the pumper James finally be laid to rest.

But please, James, pump and pump, I can't lose.

The XMR/BBR sibling rivalry is adorable.  Sound like somebody is cranky because BBR spiked up +25% while XMR crashed -13%.   

1.  Sorry for putting the apostrophe in the wrong place.  Thanks Spelling Nazi.  

2. Linux = Linus Torvalds UNIX

3. Where's the "hasty generalization?"  All I said was that it's very nice to have two significantly different approaches for implementing CN.  Oh Noez, I said something nice about BBR!?  Quick, burn the witch!  

These errors are normal and 100% harmless. They simply mean that you were connected to a peer running an obsolete version, and your node detected that and dropped the connection. If necessary your node will also find a new peer to replace the dropped connection. The messages should decrease in frequency over time.

Reply to previous reply: No need for craneo-rectal extraction at this time.

Except that Zoidberg is a none trick poney, Linux has expert management skills.

The errors you are seeing are peers trying to send transactions with a < 0.1 XMR tx fee. Your client is rejecting them, as it should be. No cause for alarm. (someone with more experience correct me if I've got my head up my ass)

It's functioning properly - no harm in any of those notifications. Those are other users' transactions being rejected for insufficient fees and one closed connection (ordinary network behavior).

Drooling Masses update.

After much trepidation about updating due to never having done so before, I just successfully did so.  Windows 8.1, what else would The Drooling Masses have, and it couldn't have been easier.  The deleted p2pstate.bin has recreated itself but not the poolstate.bin.  I haven't closed the daemon yet so maybe it has yet to happen.  Also the "seed" command didn't work before updating and now it works.  My coins are safe and sound.  Below is a copy of the continuous errors I am now getting.  I believe it had been posted a few days ago but I don't remember what was said.

1. It is Torvalds not Torvald.

2. It is Linux not UNIX.

3. Linus Torvalds is one of very few individual developers who successfully made the transition to leader and manager of a very large and very successful project. Avoid hasty generalization.

Naw, he uses percentages. Anything more than smells more than 13.37% socialist and indiemap is out. Quick, hide the Marxists!

And by first mover, first cryptonote based token to reach $5m market cap and a decent trading volume - this without an official GUI, SPV wallet (web or mobile), etc.

I'm curious about indiemaps's anti-socialism prerequisities. If there's one socialist, does he automatically reject the open source project? Or does one free market-proponent and one socialist cancel out? Is there a weighting function? So many questions.

Technology isn't about 1 particular ideology - if it were then it would remain niche and no one would use it, similar to Linux on the desktop. Technology is neutral and it can support anarchists, libertarians as well as moderates just fine. If you want to participate in something that is accepted by critical mass, then be prepared to work with and support others who do not share your worldviews. I, for one, do not want Bitcoin, Monero or any other revolutionary value token inventions to remain niche - if they do, they they will die and be replaced by GoogleCoin or FacebookBucks. Uggh.

I think he's just mandating that they not be extreme statists.

How could you possibly mandate that all developers of an open source project conform to a certain set of political views? Why would you care, as long as the product performs as advertised?

Both projects are open source, so anyone may contribute code.  It's very nice that we have two good, but significantly different, CN-based coins to choose from.  XMR represents the democratic, bottom-up approach.  BBR represents the top-down Benevolent Dictator For Life model that worked so well for Linus Torvald's UNIX.  I think both twins will be winners!

The man asked a legitimate question, by refusing to answer and dismissing them as a troll attempting to drag 'us' down it does a disservice to the project you support.

TL;DR the answer was
