Comment Re:Amiga Forevern GNAA GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION (Score 2) 58

Steemit.com has a voting feature that can cause sufficiently down-voted comments and posts to be grayed out and reduced to a minimum amount of screen space. But, back on topic, I'm a former Amigan and I was inspired by this mini-documentary. It's too bad that Amiga magazine didn't realize the human-interest angle of the content Samia sent them. I would have loved to know about her and her art - and I'd love to help her continue with it.

So should slashdot, reddit, hacker news. And nightclub owners should pay hot chicks that drum up their business. But capitalists are greedy so ...

Aha. Yeah, I wonder why there aren't any economically illiterate, perpetually lazy, whiny little bitch Marxist business owners that see things your way...

Comment If killers thieves and liars say you don't need it (Score 1) 348

Real people don't need some grasping, piece of shit politician - a fucking criminal (killer, thief, liar) doing business as 'government', pretending to 'know better' and make decisions on their behalf, in their 'best interests'. To the English 'home secretary' - fucking kill yourself.

Comment Australia? Hardly... (Score 1) 104

Whether this is supposed to refer to the landmass (unlikely) or the political entity, one particular subset of the idiot-fucks that presume it's their business to force their opinions and values onto millions of other people does not constitute 'Australia'. And why would anyone care about what these notoriously technologically inept parasites opine about this subject?

Comment localbitcoins.com (Score 1) 270

To devrtm, in the rather unlikely event that you get past all chaff comments, is localbitcoins.com something that could help you get some cash for some of your bitcoin while you research and figure out your other options? Other options, of which there many. ;) btw I'm also bozoforpresident on reddit which might be easier for messaging than /. Final thought - to all the mooing tax cattle, off to the slaughterhouse you go...

Submission + - How does one freely use Bitcoin in the Land of the Free?

devrtm writes: It appears that Bitcoin, a currency designed with anonymity in mind, can be effectively used almost anywhere in the world except in a few countries where it is regulated, and in one country where you can only use it if you give up your privacy. That country is the US. I have accumulated quite a few BTC from the currency's early days where block rewards were still at $50. There was a period of time where one could get a nearly anonymous debit card, or use BTC online with merchants. Nowadays, non-US payment providers no longer issue debit cards to the US residents and the US-based merchants accepting BTC are nearly extinct. The only way to use BTC in the US is to convert it to USD. Unfortunately, that conversion requires giving up your personal information to a US-based BTC payment processor, and there are rumors that signing up for those services raises red flags with certain three letter acronym organizations. I have nothing to hide, but I do value my privacy. Can one freely and anonymously live off of their Bitcoin wallet in the US? I am afraid he answer is no. Does anyone have an experience that proves me wrong? Please share.
