I'm being trolled! Anyway, I assume he'll have to make Coveney Tanaiste now given the spanking he took by the party membership."Worldly wisdom teaches that it is better for reputation to fail conventionally than to succeed unconventionally." - John Maynard Keynes -
Not looked into it much so could be missing something but...increase the block size? I realise that there would be strong pushback as it goes against decentralisation (less miners due to more powerful hardware needed) but due to Moores law that problem goes away? Maybe use segwit in the shorterm but I don't know much about that. To me it boils down to being a solvable flaw, the real flaw is a community of nerds in chargeOriginally posted by Denny Crane View PostLast edited by Tar.Aldarion; 02-06-17, 19:37.

Obviously awaiting the delicious moment in about 2 years when he has his first cabinet reshuffle. And sacks the whiny streak of Cork piss! Ha!
Anyway; how did you vote in the SF Northern leadership election? Oh yeah - nobody got a vote in that one. How did you feel about that?

That's exactly why I preferred him over Leo. Safer pair of hands imo. Varadkar just seems like a one trick pony to me. That trick being seeming like something new, just cause he doesn't do the overly schooled, trained not to answer a question at all, like most of them.Originally posted by Sickpuppy View PostGone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.Comment

Revenue and their harry potteresque 'inspector of taxes' have been hounding me to fill out my tax return as they think I owe them money, and taking swipes at my hillary Clinton level email scandal for sending them an 'unsecure' email with my p60 in it. Now they owe me 200 euro. Bit of a beat as it shows how little work my linkedfinance has been doing for me

I hadn't really come across Corbyn before this week, just blindly accepted the very commonly expressed view in the media that he was a clown, total liability, etc... Have watched him speak in two live debates this week and have been really impressed. Much more assured than May, who suffers from a critical weakness when it comes to elections - she seems like a complete heartless bitch.
Funny that in Ireland I'm a Fine Gael/Labour voter (on boards.ie they'd have you believe that FG are some kind of hard right party), whereas if I were in the UK I'd be voting Labour and obviously the Dems in the US. The reality is the FG are left of centre when compared to most parties worldwide surely!

He's some balls sticking to his really unpopular views re IRA, no first nuclear strike, etc...! Jesus, if that were me I'd be making appeasing noises to the red faced angry people shouting at me.

Run in with an ol biddy on the golf course. Snap hooked a drive onto her fairway. Excuse me we are playing this hole . Yes I know Mary but you haven't even reached your ball yet . You should wait she said. Listen missus your 50 yard monster drive is still up there and you will be past me when I'm shooting. What is the problem. ?
Well you shouldn't be on this fairway. Took my shot , unusually a good shot to the fringe. Nice recovery her friend said. I smiled and said I wasn't sick. Meanwhile my morto friend was waiting patiently to die. I was hot.Comment

Im very confused watching Twin Peaks, i would probably be worried if i understood it.

Fair play Leo some man..But whats all the fuss about?Black leader, female leader...New leader of Fine Gael, new leader of Fine Fail, same difference...they could be a former Catholic priest that is now a converted gay transgender Libyan buddist and it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference.

Main house moving day yesterday. Got off to an awful start. I was taking a half day but got stuck in work for an extra couple of hours, and the sky installer lad broke our telly. Mitchell was near the middle of the floor for various reasons, and my wife asked him to move it to the plug socket, and he grabbed in with one hand by the top of the screen and tried to lift it up. It happened too quickly for my wife to tell him to stop being a twat, and when she turned on the telly and saw lines across and up and down the screen as well as a thumb sized area not working, he pretty much said that he didn't do it at first.
He seemed to accept that we were going to report it to sky anyhow and he gave details of who to call, etc, and a sky person calling on Tuesday to have a look. Hopefully get a decent new telly or relevant funds out of it, but I'm sure they'll try to pawn a smaller TV off on us at best.
The rest of the day was much more productive though, but a hard slog.Comment

Lions were gash.
Sexton, Best and Henderson all had very off days from an Irish perspective.
Teo was good. Moriarty and Faletau good too.
Was really hoping for a last gasp winner from the Barbarians tbh.
Hope it was mostly jet-lag based malaise, because it really was very poor from a lot of them.Comment

As well how important is first mover advantage when there's no real physical infrastructure or sunk costs involved. Switching coin is relatively effortless and
Bitcoin's market share is continuously declining.
I think history shows that the easier to use and better marketed product tends to win out. Whoever makes a coin that is desirable to more than nerds, libertarians and drug dealers wins imo.Last edited by Denny Crane; 03-06-17, 11:35.Comment

Ta. Wife's brother and father helped move all the stuff, we just have to rearrange it inside the house now and unpack boxes. I also have to move the last few bits from old apartment (light and small mostly), paint a room and ensuite and clean the place as well as put away all the stuff we moved, and then I'm done. That simple. Should hopefully have most of it all done by Monday, the most painful bit is over now.Originally posted by dobby View PostComment
