Of all the days for this to happen!! Any chance he 420 specials can be extended till it doesn't cost a mint!

its asking for a £43 transaction fee if i want to send the btc in the 30 min provided by the escrow, ive had to cancel my order

Thanks for the link, I saw the record fee spike and thought there must be some issue, it's still climbing vertically. They need to burn more coal! 8-((

The CO2 cost of BC is humungous... please LB Gods make some other crypto available for payments!

I second that!!
ETH, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin would be very easy to implement. And would mitigate the risk associated with putting all the eggs in a single basket :)

No more purchases for me with btc, not until a sensible payment option is available. :((

So frustrating :(

the pool of waiting transactions is insane

Unbelievable :(

you came to the wrong decade mate

Resin is a term applied to the vast majority of concentrates from hash to shatter but rosin is specifically pressed with heat in order to extract without the use of solvents. Rosin is therefore a resin but resin is not necessarily rosin.

I have a rosin press and plates I'm looking to sell if you need

sad to add DMX here

Solid list but I’d put Pac above Biggy. East vs West and preference aside, lyrically-speaking, I think 2pac is notch above Big.

tupac had the charisma of a rock star and gravitas of a rebel leader. a great story teller but not as great as mr wallace i think and puffys beats are more consistent than the work of tupac's producers.

Puffy's beats?! lol

puffys samples

Yeah. And anything that Puffy “produced” was made by someone else. Don’t get me wrong, puff daddy was a producer but only in the sense he brought the ingredients together... the ingredients being MCs and producers. The majority of stuff that came out on BadBoy records was produced by The Hitmen (featuring legendary producer Easy Mo Bee) of which he did head up but as more of an organiser than anything else.

the only beat$ that really count are the ones that come in wads

Gotta love the one douchebag (Itche) who downvotes but adds absolutely nothing to the discussion. If you’re going to downvote (a comment of personal opinion of all things), at least add to the discussion by posting your own opinion why you disagree.

I don't think downvoting a post when you're too busy to reply makes you a douchebag. Ease up a bit man, a downvote is hardly a slap in the chops now is it? Spark an L and chill.

As for reasoning it's quite simple. Biggie is respected far more widely as a lyricist than Pac. That doesn't mean you can't enjoy Tupac more than Biggie or anyone else for that matter. Music is subjective and what appeals to one person may not to another. That's the beauty of it!

I find the list above massively lacking anyway and it blows my mind that Pac and Biggie get almost singled out as the greatest dead rappers. As Nowherematt mentions bellow there's not even a mention of MF DOOM at all or....
Big Pun, Prodigy, Phife, GURU (?!), Sean Price, Dilla, Heavy D, Adam Yauch.

The influence the guys above had on hip hop is absolutely insane.

Yours sincerely
Dr Douchebag

Not mentioned yet we need DOOM and Mac Miller.

Oder Falco.

reeeeeemix

You need to throw big pun in the mix for sure.

100% needs to be there, I’d put Pun and Big as my Number 1’s personally.

Did I miss Mars Volta on that list? Top 3 Rick Rubin

Also Yeezus, System’s first album and One Hot Minute top tier.

I got hooked onto hip hop when I first PE LP and Ice Cube's Amerikkka's Most Wanted got released, so a long ass time ago. I think Rubin worked on Fear Of The Black Planet with PE. Their first 5 LPs are classics in my library

Rick Rubin changed my life - or at least had a big influence on my musical taste. I vividly remember hearing Slayer's Reign in Blood for the first time back in '87. I was gobsmacked! 28 minutes of total mayhem - it never occured to me you were allowed to do that on a record! Along with Electric by The Cult, and Licensed to Ill by the Beastie Boys, to name but a few, he has helped provide the soundtrack to much of my life.

when u see rick rubin for the first time you would never think he produces rap albums

he is indeed a musical genius!

i come across Rick Rubin on the magna carter documentary

how does rick rubin compare to scott storch?

Not a fan of Scott Storch. In the words of Timbaland: 'you just a piano man'

Me neither.. hahah just a piano man. Indeed! He had a few true bangers in his heyday tho...

seriously

I would completely agree this would solve many problems, just looking through and there are some really amazing newish sellers but they are right at the bottom below all the "Cali" too which seems unfair.

Ban ban ban if you ask me, charging a premium for something and not having to supply any real proof (for opsec obviously) leaves way too much room for cheeky beggars.

We have to agree with you sir. We sell shake but have been taken off the wall.

Your shake to smoke is very good but just because your not on the wall doesn't mean you should support the above posters. It's more likely that the products you vend are niche and due to that and the lower engagement you get on posts because of the goods will likely translate into no wall time. Have you considered perhaps offering a budget conscious but less shaky and more bud like offer as that's something LB could always do more with (in my opinion)

I've never purchased any of these strains, but that they are an option seems only a good thing. There will be people that take advantage of that, just like there already is with any other claim of a weeds origin, or even strain, but it also allows the real deal to be sold.

I think we should be left to make that decision ourselves, not have them removed, which will be the result of a ban on claiming its origin, as that is what commands its price. There are so many options here, that no one needs to pay those prices for that weed, real or otherwise. My 2c.

Essentially, you can 'claim' anything. In the cryptoverse there is really no way to prove anything. If people choose to buy 'Cali' weed online, they take the rough with the smooth as far as I'm concerned. It's the buyers responsibility to follow up and ask questions of the vendor. It's up to the vendor to address any buyers' objections. This may be done with or without proof. It's then up to the buyer to decide if the vendor stands up to scrutiny or not. Banning the term 'Cali' essentially opens up a can of worms. Buyer beware and sellers back up your claims. It's simple as that. I won't risk 'Cali' weed because I cannot verify it. Seems like a pretty simple and logical buying methodology. Belief is down to you. Proof is the vendor's business.

i agree how u prove g13 is g13 seed etc etc

Definitely, nobody is forced to buy anything and it's up to the buyer to determine what represents value for money to them

exsctkyba tesco t shirt costs 3 quid a similsr quality with CK on costs 30 does everyone buynthe 3 quidder

is there any opposition to this?

Yeah I'm opposed to it, I find it ludicrous that it's such a big thing that people are making threads over it. If your not interested scroll past. Oh and I'm gonna put a proper thread up later but it appears using the cannverify app that the Cali I got today is actually from California. As for the codes being easy to fake one Reddit post (which is all the proof I have seen so far) does not a 100% factual statement make. So yeah I'm opposed to this suggestion ;)

Is that the 'fake' stuff from The Gentlemen? Seems legit to me...

Yup it's the stuff that was declared 100% fake in another thread

Opposition is a strong word but...

Why single out Cali? Is Dutch going too? Morrocan or Thai?
How about Organic?

They're giving buyers some idea of what to expect.
The bigger the claim the bigger the spanking if the drop doesn't match.

Yeah anyone can share a pic of weed and says it's cali or Dutch purely to charge more

I agree. Though I know juggle boys have barcodes you can scan to check its theirs

Oh god, don't get someone started on that barcode stuff, apparently it's super easy to fake! lol
Don't see why some people are so intent on vexing about this topic; use your common sense, you're either willing to pay premium or not, chat to the seller and see if you're comfortable laying the wedge, and worst case dispute it if you think it's fake / you've been misled.
Banning terminology, ffs, where does it end? There's always going to be people trying to mug you off, be sensible and you probably won't get burned.
Peace and love biggas
PS don't be that guy and shit post on established vendors when you haven't even purchased the product!

Have always thought this as ppl charge premium prices for cali. Some ppl buy cali as it is seen as dispensary quality stuff. So they don't want to put anything in their bodys and trust sellers thinking theyre buying superior qwaulity product less harmful to health.

I just stay away from Cali branded shit !
So for me is rather off putting than advertising lol.

Hear hear.

Yep. Great big red flag

100%

bigg up

Here here boris. Couldn’t agree more.

We aren’t “the robots” we are just another biological robot. Only thing that differentiates us, is that we don’t live in balance with nature

Can't think of much of a worse fate than immortality

So then can I ask if you had health and loved ones living just as long when would you like to die, optimally?

Yes.

ok then im asking :)

how bout if you have to wear a mask the whole time

ok but you might actually want social distancing at some point

ba-by

...baby don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me, no more.
What is love?...

Oh sorry wrong song!!!

Frankly by all of us bitching all the time.

yes, exchanges that hold your bitcoins with your identity are part of the global banking system and ultimately control both your funds and data.

you can go even further by mixing your coins so an analysis can not trace them, coinjoin does this.
