Slush's Bitcoin mining pool (mining.bitcoin.cz) hacked - inside job from host is possible - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Van-man;40397917]He's stating that because those girls could either be underage, or someone else's pictures posted without consent. Hard to verify that the person(s) in the pictures [B]IS[/B] the person posting it, and that said person is also over 18.[/QUOTE] They seem to have a verification process. It's no different from a porn site. How do you prove amateur porn isn't underage? A lot of shit on reddit is gross and weird but adult women posting pictures of their own body for money is far from gross, weird, or illegal.

[QUOTE=Van-man;40398203]So you think it's wrong being concerned, considering Reddit apparently is A-OK with "creepshot" subreddits?[/QUOTE] I was under the impression they got rid of those? I just don't think it's right to prevent women from willingly showing off their own body for money, but if it's a concern about underage pictures I can understand that I guess.

[QUOTE=T2L_Goose;40398300]I was under the impression they got rid of those?[/QUOTE] They didn't get rid of them willingly. And for each one getting removed, 2 new spawned up under a half-assed disguise.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40395692]You can't lose money that doesn't exist[/QUOTE] Lehman-Brothers would like a word with you.

[QUOTE=Roger Waters;40397955]so basically you can't lose any money then, since physical dollars are not actual, direct money. they're simply backed by bonds and gold.[/QUOTE] It's been a long time since (American) money was backed by gold/ silver. Bonds don't so much "back" money, they are a tool used to raise money (dated IOU with interest). Anyone live/know of a country still backing their money with precious metals?

[QUOTE=Roger Waters;40397955]so basically you can't lose any money then, since physical dollars are not actual, direct money. they're simply backed by bonds and gold.[/QUOTE] Better than being backed by pure speculation (bitcoins)

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40399140]Better than being backed by pure speculation (bitcoins)[/QUOTE] Not to point out the obvious, but other then speculation what is backing your currency of choice.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40399140]Better than being backed by pure speculation (bitcoins)[/QUOTE] Uhh, money nowadays are only backed by promises and speculation.

The Nixon Shock of 1971 ended the direct convertibility of the United States dollar to gold. Since then all reserve currencies have been fiat currencies, including the U.S. dollar and the Euro.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40399200]I guess my A in econ doesn't make me a master economist[/QUOTE] That means you only know how to make and manage money, not how the currencies of the world works.

[QUOTE=Van-man;40399208]That means you only know how to make and manage money, not how the currencies of the world works.[/QUOTE] I know I was joking around

[QUOTE=Van-man;40398203]So you think it's wrong being concerned, considering Reddit apparently is A-OK with "creepshot" subreddits?[/QUOTE] Think of reddit more as the internet than something like facepunch. It's not one single controlled community, but instead essentially many distinct and uncontrolled communities. They don't have mods trawling subreddits looking for questionable content. They generally let subreddits be compleyely.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40399200]I guess my A in econ doesn't make me a master economist Very well, carry on[/QUOTE] I got an A in my Macro and Micro economic courses at community college, but I still found out things my professor was wrong about and loads more information.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40395692]You can't lose money that doesn't exist[/QUOTE] Check your bank account, you only see numbers no money.

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40395692]You can't lose money that doesn't exist[/QUOTE] Give me all your bank account info then, you can't loose your virtual money anyway, right?

I get it guys i already admit I'm dumb

I actually just tried to start mining today, but couldn't figure it out. (Cause I'm dumb!)

You could always speak to EA and get 50,000 more for ONLY $4

Damn, glad I stopped mining. I used slush's pool.
