:driving:

What's going on in Vegas? :confused:

a group meet up... madwi, myself, Jarblue, the clifford, and a few others..

Pic's :pics: or it didn't happen. :rofl2:

Thanks for the invite

Mmmmmhmm...

whoahhhhhh nelly!!!! get with Mr. Madwi.. I threw out the idea, he put the wheels in motion...:rolleyes:

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

you are more than welcome to attend... march 9th to march 11th

He said I wasn't welcome because my Z is stock.

:confused:

:o

:bs:

:ugh2::ugh2::ugh2::ugh2:

mannn, if I dont find cheaper flights, my tail might be driving the Z...:mad:

Note board I had hanging on the door of our room on the cruise. :rofl2:

Found a btcrecover program on github ... going to screw around with that. Since bitcoins went crazy and nearly hit $20K apiece, I went and dug up my wallet from 2012 and found 10.09 mined bitcoins still on it. I hope I've got a decent idea of what the password would be. Brute Force! :rock:

Bitcoin dropped on Friday. 1 bitcoin is worth $13,813.04. If you have 10.09 bitcoins. That's worth $139,373.57. Nice chunk of change. :tup: They are saying that the bitcoin market is headed for a ruff ride. Gov't is looking to get their taxes off of it. As it is capitol gains. They look at it the same as stocks and bonds. You make a profit, they want a piece of it.

I have a spare 980 4GB GPU if you want to use it for cracking.

I thought I had gotten everybody in the group emails. Nothing personal if I missed you. Everyone is invited, except Bonez and his stock Z.

:icon14:

tickets are not that expensive.

Bargain basement prices on rountrip is $295. Seats are in the cargo hold, under the leaky economy class toilet though. :icon17:

:Sorry guys can’t make it one of our therapists had an emergency needed to go back to India for the whole month of March.

White boss said you f*ching Asian you can’t leave work!!!
Go and cook me “pansit”

Sorry guys. In for the pictures. And the Vegas girls.:tup:

See...

I remember thinking it wasn't worth the effort when the price was around $100 apiece. They were pushing $20K apiece earlier this week :eek:

If I crack it, I will definitely be installing a Fast Intention Twin Turbo on my Z :rock:

I think I'm good on that front; thank you very much for the offer. I've got a buddy helping me out. He's got the experience and hardware. I'm just going to get things started and run it on his machine. If we run into problems, he's my troubleshooter :tup:

Have a wonderful Saturday everyone :hello:

I really want to go screw with this bitcoin stuff now, but I have so much to do around the house to get ready for hosting both our families for Christmas that it's not even funny :mad:

Don't feel bad. i still have to go and buy 2 more things for the wife. And still have to wrap everything. Run the sweeper in the house. Brush out the dog. :eek: He's a golden retriever. And a bunch of other stuff. And i don't feel like doing any of it. :icon14:

We've been cleaning for weeks now it seems. Mostly just little stuff left, but there are a couple of big tasks that need to get done but I don't have the ambition. One is to finish trimming out the new wine niche we put in under the stairs and the other is installing new wall mount for the TV and new wall mount speakers including rerouting the in-wall speaker wire. Not really interested in doing either of those.

Good luck to them. Unless the bitcoin community wants to pay the taxes it ain't gonna happen. The government can take it from companies accepting bitcoins, but they'll never get capital gains taxes from individuals that don't want to pay it.

I've seen brick and mortar bitcoin stores that will pay you cash for bitcoins or vice versa. No identification exchanged, so I'm not sure how anyone would find out you made a bunch of cash from selling them.

Wow ... check out the transaction history. I was mining a whole bitcoin in like two weeks back then :icon17:

We took that cruise. That was 10 days spent there. We didn't put up much Christmas stuff because of that. My Z is still up on jack stands. Have to install the OS Giken diff, the diff cooler, the SPL rear upper control bushings, SPL sub-frame bushings, Z1 brake bracket, hood vents. After all that. Alignment and state inspection. Plus finish the basement remodeling job I started last winter.

Good luck finishing all that by Monday :icon17:

From what I read. The gov't just has to follow the transactions. They will have no problem with that. All the gov't's is holding back and wanting to see how this will play out before dropping the hammer. The Chinese have done some things already. They all want their pound of flesh. If they can't get it. They will close it down.

No matter what we think. The gov't WILL have the last word in this.

In my wildest dreams. :rofl2:

Rusty was just browsing your build thread and SPL set up.

Dude your Z would not need any Viagra with those solid suspension bushing!

Time to send out a few RepZ.

They can follow the transactions all they want. What they have to do is associate the transaction with an individual. Right now I'm sure it would be easy for the government to do so because bitcoin users know they aren't doing so just yet. Once they do start trying to tax bitcoins, the transactions will start going through different channels to avoid government oversight. Eventually it may have to go underground completely, but it is likely the bitcoin economy online is sufficient enough to survive in an isolated environment; there's a lot of stuff you can purchase anonymously with bitcoins. Or they'll just use currencies outside the US government's jurisdiction. It's not hard to convert foreign currency to US cash without the government's knowledge of who the money belongs to.

Where does one view this?
