Most of the people here are confusing security of the bitcoin protocol with security of some server which provides bitcoin services. Bitcoin hasn't been hacked. Bitcoinica was. That's a big difference. If you store the wallet offline or encrypted on a virus free computer, there is no way you can get hacked.
Where are all the people on slashdot that used to provide excelent feedback? I guess I have to move on as well.
They have problems delivering 28nm right now so take the 20nm predictions with a pinch of salt.
"However, the transition to 28nm does not appear to be going smoothly. ARM heavyweight Qualcomm was the first to introduce a 28nm design, the stunning Snapdragon S4 based on its Krait core. But the outfit is now struggling to meet demand for S4 chips and it is basically becoming a victim of its own success. Other ARM players, such as TI, Nvidia, Samsung and Apple, have yet to introduce a single 28nm part." -- http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/27414-arm-hopes-to-see-20nm-processors-next-year
I might be just guessing here but the use of this technology might be a bit overrated. Customers are not sheep and they are not that easily tricked into buying something just because it is placed on a specific shelf. The shops know what they sold, where they had that thing placed and they can even identify specific customers and their bought goods because now everybody pays electronically - so really, what kind of a big revolution this surveillance can bring to the shop owner?
bitcoin is free market money. if you're not interested, nobody is forcing you to use it so stop whining about it not being regulated. just continue using your equally worthless dollars and trust your governments to save the day.
some people buy gold because it's the most proven storage of wealth. some buy into schemes like stocks, bonds, etc. if some like the bitcoin so be it.
perhaps its wise for some comrades to move to a socialist totalitarian country where everything is regulated and handled by the government.
Having helped trigger the food-crisis, the Anglosphere is now beginning to make fixing it a priority. But as with so many other endeavors (when it comes to the Anglo-American axis), one has to approach the concept of "fixing" with some trepidation. The axis deals in dominant social themes designed to frighten people into giving up wealth and power to internationalist institutions. Global warming was one-such meme – and we have long been on record as pointing out that global warming was logically supposed to trigger water and food scarcity memes. These elite promotions tend to work as narratives, leading to the observer logically from one point to another.

>wikileaks is using the publicity assange generates through media and publicity stunts.
exactly! - that's why he should not be trusted. media report about things which they like or they give it a spin they like.
he seems to me like a created hero to save us all (and meanwhile following agenda of someone's)
the less score I get for these kind of posts I make, the stronger my suspicioun that you just blindly trust someone cool. people are a very easy target to manipulate if you do it in a smart way (and this wikileaks thing is a very smart way). its ridiculous how most of the people can't think criticaly about this issue. i have no insider information but from what I can tell, this looks very suspicious.
I very much welcome any less centralized leaking mechanism. I hope you're with me at least on this one.
And now my question is - why it wasn't leaked by Assanage? I worry that Assanage might be not so honest as he is being protrait to be - he might have some agenda and leak only things people behind him want to leak. Its just these little things I base my judgments on but its exactly this kind of news I was expecting not to see on wikileaks.
Sorry, I meant IPCC not EPA. But they are the same bunch. IPCC receives money from big corps who like global warming, even oil companies - do not get mistaken, people behind the corporations seek global governance and increased power, its not about short term profits. Global warming meme is an important theme they need to push on us because it is then easy to advocate food and water scarcity memes which they can of course solve by global governance. Just take a look at all the help the western world is sending to the poor countries - it doesn't help - the power is just spread through mercantilistic paractisies based on fiat money. Another thing about IPCC is the climategate scandal - you get the idea how does one manufacture data because unfortunataly we are heading probably for som 10 years of global cooling and it doesn't fit their plan.
It has been conclusively shown that global warming is manmade by proved-to-be-corrupted scietific entity called EPA. They intentionally reported wrong numbersv and they are supported by large corporations and governements. The result is that taxpayers are being robbed massively and the big corporations profit hugely!
People use words as they see fit. Global warming meme is falling apart so they need to be smart and talk climate change now. The point is they want to profit from it.
Earth is getting hotter because the sun is hotter - it has nothing to do with CO2, that's just fabricated nonsense. We are just being fuck*d so we willingly give up our wealth.
Global warming is so last year. Global cooling is the next big thing (with which they'll rob us all):D
But lets see what they'll do - with global cooling it might be hard to rationalize important agenda like water and food scarcity which they desperatly need so they can gain more power wordwide.
however - its smart to call it climate change these days...
Your reasoning is very weak.
I have some evidence that the world will be a better place if you deposit a couple of thousands to my banking account. Do it as soon as possible, the world might be doomed if you don't.
- I hope you get my point.
So - turn of your TV and start to think for yourself, you'll see how this world works. Global warming is a meme developed by the wealthy to make them even more wealthy - but what's more important: powerful.
Facebook IPO is around the corner and in that case, I believe the fall of facebook is getting closer... people making that IPO must know something already. Its very unlikely that they do IPO just to raise cash - they have anough of cash already, its the other way around - they want to get their ivested money back. I am guessing, but it will be very interesting to watch it unfold in the comming years.
NY Times knows what they are doing while supporting this call for centralized password management and identity system. They serve the powers that be on their quest to even greater power. I agree with their point - increasing the so called safety - but on the other hand I am a bit worried about having a few people in charge of the identities of eventually entire population. Almighty government and rich corporations will certainly be willing to help us with our identities.
You want money to build manufacturing (which is mainly what we're talking about here)? Easy. Tax the hell out of companies that use foreign outsourcing
Its not a bad idea generaly. Sure, encourage local markets and get back to the smaller sustainable microeconomies inside nations. First thing striking as unrealistic is that the elites ruling this world are rolling the globalisation scenario and won't go back with it until they satisfy some global domination goal they have. But lets not care about those for a moment.
Economy is wobbling and falling on its knees. No, seriously, do you believe in this miracle recovery we saw an indication of in the markets for the last several months? Job market sucks, real estate bubble is deflating. They already mess with the system trying to patch it here and patch it there, print some more money and hope for the best. We can be certain that changing some of the policies drasticaly is very risky bussiness right now. Like suddenly abandoning trade deficits. They can make some progress reducing it with China now perhaps more open to start manufacturing goods for their own people. But it certainly won't happen overnight.
I see world economies struggling for the next couple of years. The governments on the verge of bankrupcy will tax the hell out of people, bet on it. But its questionable to what degree will they punish foreign outsourcing practices. I guess all the taxing will just be a direct need to raise some money to survive. Life will be thougher for common folks, food is going to be expensive. And now you suggest to tax the goold old cheapo china goods heavily. The prices will skyrocket. Don't forget all the money printed that will eventually find its way out and could cause massive inflation as well. Keep in mind that the important changes has to be gradual, and that takes time. The balance of the world markets might be more complicated than you think:)
Another thing to consider is the response to such higher taxes from China. They might not like it.
I agree with you on that China selling dollars thing. Its true that they must do it the smart way. Like buying up commodities and companies producing them - like miners. They are already doing that. But I don't think that the US should not be worried that China is getting rid of the dollars as you call it not-cheaply, its the other way around. In this way they can accumulate wealth with still valuable dollars.
But yes, what do I know. I follow these events and speculations as a personal hobbie. Thanks for your response anyway:)
I was flying from London yesterday and I was being questioned stupid questions like what have you been doing there, what museums have you visited...etc. And it was just because I got unlucky that my my eyes ended for a half second on the policman.
But what do they think they will find out with such questions? Do they not know that professional terorists would be 100% more certain with their answers then I was in this unexpected questioning. Also a terrorist would never lay so suspisiously an eye on the policemen as I did.
Its pseudoscience. Perhaps its just because they want to pretend they have things under control. Or they just lower the unemployment or some other ridiculous reasons.
Such practices are really uncomfortable.
I highly doubt that this would happen. ARM is currently one of the most important tech player on the market. If apple is interested it is straightforward that many other wealthy companies would try to outbid apple.
From what I can see, apple is using some nasty tactics and even microsoft looks like a good puppy right now in comparison. This acquisition would make the tech industry and its consumers suffer big time.
For now I am completely discarding this rumour - especially when I look at ARMH's stock price - I sense manipulation.

another false flag event in the making?

I am not impressed, its tiny. Do you know how much capacity our bittorrent network has folks? Image a beowulf cluster of these... and you got it.

There is no such need for us. They need it just for their global governance plans. They seek total control and power.

yes, they are worth more in terms of that funny money. when you value it in the real money the result is quite different.
