Nostalgia
Remember those days
when even a luddite like me could mine a little bitcoin?
Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance - forever and a day
We'd fight and never lose
We'd live the life we choose
Oh yes! Those were the days!

I love it! Full 100% upvote.
But dammit, now you've got me singing that song in my head and I can't get rid of it! :-) Oh, that's ok. I like it!
Thanx!
Well, good to have songs playing in your head in case the electricity goes down :-)
Good luck with Irma. She's a nasty bitch!
Yes. Seems that it will be not as bad as the authorities told us. Glad we stayed put here and didn't freak out thinking our only option was to leave.
Ah, gooberment. Best to live life as detached and away from it as possible.
Beautiful song and beautiful singer... What are you mining now @onceuponatime? Let me guess, you are mining now with your mind. Right?
Nope. I'm still mining with my good looks :-)
yep!! case the electricity goes down
Those were the days indeed. Now a high performance computer packed with graphic cards has a hard time making more then a few dollars a day.

When I scrolled this post, I remembered how the song went. It's still a pretty catchy tune! Thank You for this post
LOL - same here! But I also don't mind as I like it too! 🎵🙂🎶

Although it was challenging but very memorable.

haha, same here... will have it in my head for the rest of the day I guess :-) In German we call it an "Ohrwurm"
I didn't know that. Ohrwurm is my German word for the day! Thank you!
Hey Terry if you like good music check out some stuff I have posted on Dsound & Dtube. these are good places for good music
Thank you, jesselee. I'll have to check that out.

There's a poet on the rise
A sentence, an image
A meaning, stories
Those were the days, those are our days!
Thanks for sharing and namaste :)
Those were the days, those are our days,
Now just a haze, a fading haze.
Meeeemmmmmoriiiiiieeesss!
Those are buried under piles of other cryptos and the P2P Blockchain system now! ;)
Namaste :)
Very nice. What is with the Canadian silver? You turned your BTC into Canadian silver?
Actually, I had other plans for my BTC. But I lost most of it in a Mt. Gox fiasco (the.re were more than one)
Haven't played this song for a long time, but so true....those were the days. One of these days I will play the song for you in dsound but need to wait until I get back from Turkey. This song brings a lot of nostalgic moments... and yes, we now don't need those wires and computers anymore to strangle us. Ha ha...
Turkey! I'm jealous. Some fascinating history there.
Yes, a different culture and we will be visiting a lot of archaeological sites.
I only started mining on Ethereum one and a half year ago. It was fun time, buying equipment and build it up by myself. It payed out really well now :) . Good old times.
The good old days, yup.
Been a while since I've heard that... thanks!
Alas, I got there "too late."
Took a look, determined it would cost too much.
The irony that in this decentralized world it now requires an "industrial scale" operation to make a dent... is not lost on me.
those were the days buddy those were the days
this is gonna go round my head for quite some time ;)
Its nice to have the memories of those good old days to accompany you in the journey but nobody should ever leave nostalgia affect his current days and his current memories. Don't give space to nostalgia to become remorse, thinking that those days were better than what we have now.
"What if..." is a phrase that nobody should not have in his vocabulary. Live the moment, cause every day is a good day and every day in the crypto world is even better. We are still early adopters. Life is good.
just my midnight thoughts.
perfect midnight thoughts! :-)
They were really fun days, I agree. I enjoyed them too. I remember when I bought my first block erupter at 335 megahash/sec
I thought when I bought my antminer U2's at 1.8 Gigahash/sec it would be a long while before they'd be obsolete. Boy was I wrong.
Just for fun, instead of putting out some Christmas lights this year, maybe I'll hang some block erupters and antminers in my front window and let them flash and see if 1 in 500 trillion chances I find a bitcoin block. That would be a nice Christmas present.
Do it!
I still have a couple of those!
Let's start a rumor that plugging them into your laptop reduces stress and cures bad breath. That way we'll be able to sell them!
