M-20 5'10" 165lbs I've been curious about how people actually think I look. Who better than random people on the Internet. by [deleted] in amiugly

Slightly below average (since this sub is about being average). Sorry but I don't have any feedback :(

M22 looking to see everyone's oppinion by rhynreaper in amiugly

[–]goldcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your skin is good but you'll need to lose the fat. I will be honest: you do not look attractive right now, but you can definitely improve it to above average. Eat less snacks and junk food and work out more, youll look great.

[18M] Am I ugly? by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]goldcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a better haircut and you'll be 4.5/10. Just about average. Hit the gym and you'll be a 5.5/10.

[18,M] Never really felt attractive, give up? by throwaway_24489 in amiugly

[–]goldcakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to him but you look very young. I can't really judge - I have seen it go either way, but in any case you'll be a 4/10 to a 7/10.

[17M] Am I ugly or no? Any feedback helps. by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]goldcakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're not ugly, you're average and that's perfectly fine. Stop worrying about it it. I'll rate you 5/10.

Omg, you're not ugly! It's not your appearance that's making you lonely, it's being depressed about it.

French Constitutional Court rules unconstituional to cut water from people unable to pay, making it effectively unconstitutional to block water access to anyone by Zenobist in worldnews

[–]goldcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is paying for water also like paying for food?

You are paying for the distribution network. You can most likely find free water fountains around you.

UPDATE on SUNSfan home invasion - burglar sentenced to 30 years in prison. by charlysotelo in DotA2

[–]goldcakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but if you think humor is about the suffering of other people then you do not know what humor is.

Rape is rape, regardless of the genders involved. Joking about rape can be problematic as it normalizes the culture, and it can be painful to those who are victims (note the word 'are', not 'were'). So that's why I personally will not make a rape joke, and will look down on those who do.

It is not about what anyone wishes. What is morally okay is different to what someone wishes. If I wish to kill all Jews, that does not make it okay.

The day a 'fake' currency fixed inflation by acusticthoughts in Bitcoin

[–]goldcakes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here is one simple way to stop inflation: stop printing money. Inflation is simply the transfer of purchasing power from holders of a currency to the printers.

If there is no money creation, there is no inflation. Period.

It has nothing to do with your useragent. WebRTC (streaming without plugins) is only supported in Firefox or Chrome.

Yes, I will. Considering the forum costs $1.5 million I will be glad to work full time on it as a web developer, and also hire a sysadmin.

Will Congress let the spying stop? Provisions of the Patriot Act expire on June 1, and the Senate can’t agree on what to do. by drak0bsidian in politics

[–]goldcakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good thing I can choose not to use private companies.

I do exactly that. I use Firefox instead of chrome. I use duckduckgo instead of google.

What's your point?

Just so you know, Rand Paul, a Republican, is filibustering the renewal.

Sorry but it is non-partisian.

[–]goldcakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

but it costs me to keep the damn thing running

Let's assume it costs you $0.01 a week, so $0.52 a year. That should be enough to generate a million satoshis.

Not to mention extra wear and tear.

You clearly don't understand hardware, because silicon will not break in many lifetimes of your device.

The person who develops the first (or most effective) "disable my asic" app will get rich.

Ok, so it also disables the integrated hardware bitcoin wallet features. Why throw away something that's being sold for $70 right now (Trezor)?

[–]goldcakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The argument was never "spend $50". If you actually read 21's docs, they're expecting that people will only get a million satoshis or so over a year.

The point of these ASICs are not to make money. They're to allow you to participate in the blockchain.

Signing a phone contract? That phone company might want a cryptographically signed signature on the blockchain so there's no avenues for dispute.

Laptop stolen? Send 1 satoshi from your phone to a pre-determined address and Prey will automatically lock it. The source of the satoshi authenticates you.

Again, the argument is that people WILL spend $0.01 in electricity for their devices to get enough satoshis to participate in the blockchain. Even if we assume bitcoin's monetary value is $0, it's still worthwhile.

Read 21's docs. They are talking about 'a million satoshis' tops.

Why wouldn't they preload it then? Money transmission laws. FinCEN's guidelines prohibit preloading ANY amount of virtual currency on anything, otherwise you are a money transmitter.

[–]goldcakes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point completely. If $0.005 worth of bitcoin derives more value for you than the cost of mining it, then it is worthwhile even if you can get it for cheaper elsewhere.

Do you spend 10 hours shopping around for the lowest prices every time you buy something?

When the amount is small enough, it doesn't matter if there's a huge markup. You're still thinking the sole purpose of having satoshis is for its monetary value -- which is irrelevant when we're taking about a few fractions of a cent worth.

[–]goldcakes -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, it wouldn't. We the bitcoin miner might care, but the average user is perfectly happy to spend $0.01 in electricity each day to make $0.005 worth of bitcoin - because they'll see it as a cost of obtaining Btc.
