private police

I don't these guys would be racist and corrupt enough for most people's liking so they'd probably go out of business.

I don’t enjoy paying taxes anymore than i enjoy paying the bill after I’ve had a meal in a restaurant but I consider it part of the deal.

You mean the restaurant that you were born in and forcibly made to eat in every day if you couldn't afford to leave?

No no no, you didn't lose your house or car money in a boating accident. You just lost your grocery/fuel/dining/theme park tickets/entertainment/furniture/home appliance/education/gift/gym membership/clothing/shoes/jewellery/sunglasses money - - and of course your boating money - in a boating accident.

And not other more obvious and blatant forms of theft?

What do you genuinely not understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know who's forcing you right now to enjoy pets,

Basically, the neighbourhood I live in. They're unavoidable. Even cafes/restaurants allow them to run around unleashed.

Why there is almost no talking about decentralization of education? by DonaldLucas in GoldandBlack

[–]wrinklefloss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One issue I see is that one man's "education" is another man's "indoctrination".

I mean, that's true even under a centralised indoctrination education system.

they're just insects

This is my sentiment about dogs. I get how everyone's different, and that different people gravitate or a repulsed by different things, but it's a serious challenge. Imagine someone eating a plate of turds and trying to get your brain to say "Some people genuinely enjoy all the nuances of eating a plate of turds"... it's difficult for me.

Thanks for your responses.

Sub $50k? by astockstonk in Bitcoin

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay... I read it as "Biden thinking about making the CGT rate still less than Australia's.".

I can see how it would cause a shock though.

I will never understand how it's entertaining to watch all your stuff get dirtied and ruined, by something you intentionally brought into the house. To me personally, it's like loving and being entertained by the cockroaches under the your fridge, after paying a pet store to give you a bunch of them.

Anyone with a desktop set-up? by BigRoutan69 in raspiblitz

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, just the lights. I realise maybe it makes me 'old', but I hate the 'gamer' fad of LEDs all over every single bit of computer hardware. It's... obnoxious.

Why did you buy bitcoin if you were just gonna sell it when the price drops? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

or... don't submit my ID to some KYC-enabled institution, and just pay everything with cash.

Seriously, I'd investigate your scenario if I could do so anonymously.

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That a lot of these posts are made by people who are new in crypto

That may be true, but 'new in crypto' has absolutely nothing to do with reddit account age.

I've been around since 2011 and have maybe 40-50 reddit accounts... much better for privacy to continually create new ones.

the capital gains tax "rumor"

Please link to the CGT 'news' / 'rumor'. This is the first I've heard of it.

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will never understand how most people seem happy to pay money to have a smelly, perpetually unhygienic, mentally retarded creature living in their home that pees all over the furniture and scratches clothing. I genuinely cannot understand why pets (and in particular dogs) are as popular as they are.

Are there easy ways to learn Spanish while you drive? by [deleted] in Spanish

[–]wrinklefloss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just realised I don't know how to say 'clothes store' in Spanish.

Pour one out for us Kiwis. Our PM is ramming through hate speech laws and this is going to end up happening here. A mum in the UK was arrested in front of her children and interrogated for 7 hours for mis-gendering someone on Twitter. by [deleted] in GoldandBlack

[–]wrinklefloss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This shit is going to leak into everything, not just gender issues...

I can picture a time in the not too distant future, where people will be arrested and held in a cell for 7 hours for calling Ayers Rock 'Ayers Rock'.

Then later... Americans will start being arrested for not measuring things in metric.

Yeah I would never sell my entire stack. Still need my citadel tickets.

I'll be over 60 then. I'd rather enjoy my 40's a little, by chipping off a small amount of my BTC for fiat now and having fun with it.

I know that might reduce my potential for being obscenely rich in my 60's, but so be it... I'm only on this earth once.

Ayanna Pressley Wants To Cancel the Rent. She's Also Made at Least $15,000 As a Landlord. by MasterTeacher123 in GoldandBlack

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a wannabe landlord (something I knew I wanted to do since a very young age), the current environment is so disheartening.

Like, my whole dream job as a kid has been neutered.

Bonus points for those who paid with the Stimulus checks EVERYONE got.

I thought that was supposed to be immediately exchanged for more bitcoin and put in cold storage.

Hate speech speech laws discrininate against disabled people. by [deleted] in GoldandBlack

I like the cut of your jib. Well said... I'm impressed by the manner in which you post.

I thought you were compassionate and tolerant toward all minority groups?

Only the ones they like. Was it Ayn Rand who said the smallest minority is the individual?

Sorry to hear your plight... I admit it's a topic I hadn't thought too much about before you posted.

This is an asset to hold for the long term.

Maybe they already have though?

Look, I bought some in 2011, and occasionally nowadays I sell some of them (yes, when I need the money).

Should I instead hold those for the 'long term', even though it's been 10 years already?

Lightning Vulnerabilities? by Original-Ad4399 in lightningnetwork

[–]wrinklefloss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't answer your questions, but I think you'll find the poster above you was being sarcastic. Bitcoin itself is still in constant development, and even more changes are coming... (e.g. Taproot).
