I believe that BTC price is determined by an alcoholic garden fairy, named Phil. He takes his most recent Pacman score (he plays nearly everyday) divides it by the middle two digits of a random phone book entry, then multiplies it by the number of things he can see that begin with the letter 'F'. That, to the power of 3 and dived by Pi, is the current value of BitCoin.

Haha, you write really well. Reminds me of Douglas Adams.

Kudos.

I've posted this before on here but when the Silk Road was a thing (around 2014), I bought 46 bitcoin for $9 each. Spent them all on drugs.

Didn't save any.

Apparently you live and learn but that was a hell of a pill to swallow when they went to $10,000 a piece!

Oh well. Fuckabix.

Cheers BB

Feel your pain here but. I've bought copious amounts of bitcoin at £9, £12, £18 in bigger quantities and did exactly what I intended to use them for, buying weed ha. Which was incredible at the time. No regrets, we weren't to know. It was a lot of new scarily complicated information at the time and a lot to figure out. I'd try spend mine as quick as possible as overnight they were way less or sometimes way more, this use to baffle and scare me ha

oh that bigga

Brilliant 🤣🤣

Wrong you forgot to multiply by infinity at the end.

Pretty much all coins vary in value like stocks do. There is finite supply of coins based on mining, which is using processor power to solve pieces of the block chain which gets more difficult as it progresses. However no matter the amount of coins that are availible if they are not wanted then the price goes down.

Often times certain events influance the demand for the currancy. The reason it went down this time was due to a Coinbase announcement that they where not going to be allowing BCH trades for a specific period after the hard fork that happened just recently. A big BTC holder sokd off a shiload of coin which started it to drop and of course others started following suit and sold off their coin as well. There are also things like market corrections, people pulling out to invest in stock or alt coins and a bunch of other random shit. Some of which is predictable and others very much not so.

Hope that kinda sumarizes things.

Shouldn't that coinbase announcement help BTC as it's a substitute for BCH?

The cryto world is even more fickle then the actual stock market. CoinBase is one of the biggest market places / sellers of crypto so it put a lot of people on edge. Been downward a lot since then.

OK what determines supply and demand?

Supply is limited by mining difficulty so it's always growing at a slower rate. Basically coins are getting harder and harder to mine.

So the bitcoin value should be increasing not decreasing?

How many people want to buy vs sell!
It's the same as the stock market it's customer sentiment.

I noticed my wallet went down a couple days ago, the pound happened to drop at the same time, is this just purely coincidental?

You also have the halving coming up, which will further reduce supply, unlike quantative easing from fiat currency.

It's an indicator of techno optimism and government pessimism.

Escobar punching the air rn

You could just stop fucking with your stereo.
Its nothing to do with weed its to do with self incompetence.
Changing music while driving is as bad as using your phone.

what if sting comes on?

HAHA Awh that made me LOL.

Or Simply Red

that's fine and dandy but someone in the thread mentioned the very real possibility of simply red coming on

Can't remember.

Not the magic powers part, I took out my neighbors mailbox backing out of my driveway while otherwise feeling amazing thanks to the kind folks here.

I drive around the countryside for work and I'm high most of the day, never caused me a problem. Have crashed 3 times while sober though, but one of those was being side swiped by a lorry (driver fell asleep). Wish I was stoned, might not have hurt so much..

Never while stoned, many while straight headed, all on motorbikes.

Why are you looking at your phone while driving? Let alone driving while high looking at these comments too some of y’all need a moral check imo

i took out a bird (of the avian variety) whilst driving (stoned). it was a being wanker and had it coming. however, that was a conscious choice...

lolol!

Nope only once when I wasnt. I think when I'm stoned driving I'm much more aware of everything. Only bad thing is the police , worst thing you can hear when stoned is " Lads checkpoint " .

Nope, been doing it for almost 20 years. Funny thing was just talking to one of my best friends from back in the day. We used to get stoned and go for a drive. Used to do some, what I find scary now country lanes, with crazy bends, up hills and down hills.

Seen some funny shit too whilst stoned and driving.

Would panic when a police car would go past or pull up next to me at the lights but now I vape, so don't give a shit anymore.

Ricky, that you?

Jokes aside, I drive way better stoned than sober. Much smoother and less aggressive.

I have been driving stoned for many years and never had an accident.. but I have witnessed hundreds when out driving...lol...

PlayStation for me.

As for driving round stoned, I live in my cur my cur is my home, I’m sure you get stoned at home probably, all types of weed.

I play call of duty better when stoned I can ice skate better when I’m baked and I drive better when I’m baked I can’t remember what I had for breakfast most days but I can quick snipe a brother from across the map easy hahah somethings activities weed enhances me slightly I’m sure of it never binned a car yet touch wood seen many a close call been in a few over the years but never actually wrecked a whip when stoned

I’ve crashed twice. Both times I wasn’t stoned

Do a lot of driving stoned myself, never had any issues. The last time I had an issue was when me and a friend rented a hotel room at like... 18 I think. We had an ounce of some weird ass weed we needed to get rid of... smoked the whole ounce through the night, and then I tried to drive home and when I pulled out of the hotel I was driving on the wrong side of the road (was the middle of the night with no cars out).

Oops... but I quickly figured that out and got back in the right lane haha.

yes empty roads are dangerou because you find your own flow

I'm just glad you werent listening to simply red

Totally Right up to Fast and Furious 4

Lots of ways without those ridiculous (imho) rigs. Chop up very little pieces into a joint or even a hand rolled Cigarette. Very efficient way to get THC into your bloodstream quickly.

Thanks man. Might get myself some. Any recommendations for delivery to England?

That's weird. I've enquired with both of those and they both said they don't ship to UK.

Thanks dude. You ever tried cap n crunch?

I tried captain crunch, both the "wax" and "shatter" (There were two on offer and I ordered both)
It was my first time though. I bought a basic dab rig and blow torch thingy. (melted marshmallow is the best) Most people who dab want to avoid smoking mass amounts to get really stoned from what I can tell. I really like dabs. Definitely gets you high. I'm in Aus so have never seen any locally or anything, just here on lil big and youtube inst etc. You might be able to hot knife the dabs or a joint as mentioned but its actually really hard to work with. The "shatter" I got was more like honey and was as sticky as industrial glue or something. The wax was a little more handlable.

Anyway thought I'd share my experience.
Peace :)

Thanks mate. I tried nextdayweed they had some very tasty live resin. Highly recommended.

I’ve looked at that live resin. What’s it like, it’s supposed to be super strong, do you feel the difference and does it last and worth the money as it’s so expensive?
Sorry for all the questions but I don’t know anyone else that’s actually had any yet.
Thanks

It's amazing mate. Incredibly strong and one hit gets you lifted for a good few hours. I highly recommend. I had the orange cheesecake and it was lovely.

Only thing, make sure it'd kept in the fridge. Once it dries out fully it doesn't taste anywhere near as good. Keep it in the fridge keeps it sticky.

yeah i've had the flower from them. I reckon its the quickest. took like a week to get to here to aus. tasty stuff too. will try the dabs next.

Peace :)

MJcocentrates and Radar Breeder

Consider wax it burns a little easier than shatter which is like a rock. You can even stick it into a cigarette if you chop it really fine?

Hi mate. Not sure how old this topic is but it sounds like you want a Dab straw/Nectar collector.

Where to get one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=dab+straw

The one I bought: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07NTL6VRM

I've been using this little beauty for the last two years. Its definitely one of the best concentrate vaporisers out there!
Please excuse the cheesie vid
Regards

Normally with shatter you should have a dab rig, i personally don't either, but i usually sprinkle it in a spliff as i pretty much don't use glass pieces apart from my glass blunt which i only use occasionally, but if you have a pipe or bong you can easily just sprinkle it over the bowl.

Another analogy is its a clone of bitcoin, and everyone with a wallet on Aug 1 gets a free clone. After that new coins are mined separately on bitcoin and bitcoin cash, it's former clone.

It's noteworthy that it had a market cap in the billions from launch. You could call it hype cycling but when you realize what it is: a clone of a proven currency with an agenda to lower fees and serve everyday users then it's not so hard to understand.

Offensive hacking is causing harm.

Somebody set you off on the wrong foot. Offensive hacking is also used to check if the security framework in place is sufficient to withstand an attack. Or to identify possible problems that would facilitate a black or grey hat hacker with illegal/malicious intentions.

Because the minute you connect something to the internet, the first attacks will follow soon. There once was a time that the volume of these attacks was rather moderate. Now you get a couple of hundred to millions of attempts every day, depending on the size of the whole infra.

States think that they can hack or intercept whatever or put filters in place to prevent access to content if it does not fit whatever agenda. They also like to register you as much as possible: on video, with an electronic ID, biometrics. That stuff combined with everything you created for fee on some social something, that was also keeping your location, phonebook and know all your friends. Then you have the copyrights sharks that prefer to deny fans access to music because not profitable enough with their set of filters and fines. Another chunk of interesting data, musical preferences, who's listening to what.

As anyone hundreds of registrations or subscriptions for something on the web, left a digital trail of passwords and email, or even your home address. Without any doubt a couple or dozen or even more were once hacked or 'accidentally put online'. Large multinational corporations of the type that was against 'ethical hacking' as Sony. Well at least we know why :-) And if you think it can't get any worse: dive into the world of 'smart' devices and the ....:drumroll:..... internet of things, a free botnet/swarm of broken by design, no longer supported, no longer updated or default configured devices. Those things create various opportunities to fake an identity or to rob data off all devices near that cheap 50$ Chinese NAS that had scans of all ID and credit cards + the letter from the bank with the PIN and the family foto album and a week later a notice that somebody used your card in an ATM in Zanzibar, somebody logged on to your bank account and changed in which country your card can be used and set the amount to withdraw to the maximum.

Now who's the bad guy?

Absolutely, what you got in mind?
