Pope Francis was in the USA last week what have we learned?

I'm a catholic. I've been watching the Pope visit the US over the last few days, especially last couple of days, Saturday and Sunday where he's in Philadelphia. What have I learned personally? Pope Francis to me is all about unity, care for each others, everyone is included. This is easy to say than done. How do we do it? First I think through a lot of prayers where god will lend a hand. With faith that it can be done among all of us, I believe that can be done, it's a like a chain reaction. Pope Read more [...]

Bitcoin price continue to climb today

Well not a big jump, but over the past couple days it's in the positive direction mostly. There isn't any good news at all, and it's still in the positive position.

Russian planning to criminalize all Bitcoin activities including transaction mining owning

Despite some news about Russia planning on to criminalize anyone whom have anything to do with Bitcoin, including transacting, owning, and mining, but apparently that news doesn't hurt Bitcoin price today, it went up over 3% to $234.

Anyhow, the latest maintenance I did was replacing the brake pad.

Also sometime the steering Read more [...]

Bitcoin mining hardware manufacturer still producing them?

Short answer is yes, apparently Spondoolies-Tech are still manufacturing Bitcoin Mining hardware. However don't expect to be able to buy directly from them.
