is bitcoin still happening? are people still doing this?

my friend who worked for a bitcoin mining company was let go last monght and is now working elsewhere. i think they just fired a bunch of engineers too. it's never good when you fire all the engineers at an engineering company.

i believe in ross ulbricht

if only because i'd rather see mark go to jail than some naive idiot child

ulbricht went to my high school

i don't really remember him he was kinda nerdy but when he got busted i remember thinking "oh THAT guy" and in my head he was still a high school student i just hadn't seen in over a decade and not a 30 year old man so wrapping my head around him being the mastermind of a huge criminal organization kinda blew my mind for a few weeks

i guess implicit in phrases like "channels of inquiry" and "daring to forge your own path" is a defensible belief that you don't need friends to hook you up with "entheogens," don' need an understanding of the risks involved, don't need a safe place to do them. still, gross.

risks like walking right the gently caress out of a 2nd story window

is... is he dead now

he walks back into the front door there later in the video, but the poster of the video says its 2nd story so maybe it's a walk up balcony for a 2nd floor apartment i dunno, it's just an amazing video how quickly he goes from giggles to basically trying to kill himself

So the sand hill people's excuse was "it's just a game"? Isn't a "game" where you gain or lose money like that also known as betting, which is also highly illegal/heavily regulated?

but they are idiots.

doge is a great thing because it's some random japaenese womans dog and now she has 34k followers on vine

https://vine.co/v/eu2EtgYp9Be

and it is just endless dog and cat pics and her dog was on some dumb race car in america

it must be very weird to be the owner of the doge
