Why does he not focus on the bitcoin company who refuse to honour his ownership of 8000 bitcoin instead of wasting his time suing the council?

What "bitcoin company"?

How are they refusing to "honour his ownership"?

Look-Up!

Not how it works. You need the keys to get access to your bitcoin on the blockchain. I'm guess he dumped his wallet containing all the keys. You can't hack it or it's not a centralised system so there's no one to go to.

You would have to wonder about his full understanding of this.
Also he wasn't very environmentally conscious, dumping electronic waste in the bin.

Very strange. Plus 8000 bitcoin back at start of 2013 were worth about $10 each, so not exactly as if it was some quirky new thing or worthless fun. How do you accidentally dump a piece of kit worth close on $100K.

Quote from: AustinPowers on October 15, 2024, 09:54:41 PMTook me about  five attempts to sit  through all of Pulp fiction.

Can't say i remember  much from it other than the dancing  and Sam J's big afro. Could hardly quote a line other than the Royal with cheese  bit. Or was that  the Simpsons version ?

No the trip to France was about the Royale with cheese and the big Mac was called Le Big Mac..

a $5 shake isn't probably much of a bid deal now.

Simpsons riff was McDonald's instead of Krusty Burger. They don't call it a Krusty Burger with cheese. Get out, what do they call it?! A quarter pounder with cheese.

They have over 2,000 locations in this state alone.

Must have sprung up overnight.

Everyday there seems to be more and more stories of extreme violence against women and children.  What's going on lads? Is it the cocaine
?

You are hearing about it more now, been happening for centuries

I remember as a kid seeing my dads sister and her family (without her husband) landing at our house one night very late on, they stayed a few nights until there was room at the 'battered wives home' as we called it at the time, I know that's not the word but I'm saying it to reflect the time when that was, very early 80's, had she stayed with him I'd say she would have been another victim of domestic abuse that resulted in death

As a result they left the country altogether and grew up in England, I'd say it happens in everyone's family, as in there is defo a relative that engages in domestic abuse that you don't know of   
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea
