Where can I buy solar flare insurance for the absolute highest cost?

Ummm....selling things to researchers makes money, doesn't it?

Oh, and an even better way to gain trust is to manufacture and deliver a successful line of products, hire more personnel to deal with increasing demands and complaints, and purchase manufacturing equipment and show it being delivered. THEN RUN OFF WITH THE MONEY!!!! HAHAHAHAHA SUCKERS YOU FELL FOR IT!!!

Can I use a bitcoin ASIC to mine for palladium?

I'd be trolling 24/7 if I had to put up with the constant onslaught they have to deal with.

I think anyone posting anything ASIC related should be banned until one is released.

If he keeps over-reacting to our suggestions, he's either going to end up with a standard desktop PC or a pad of paper with "GPU" written on it and a fan blowing on it.

Insane conspiracy theorist / scam artist clue #1: everyone blathering on about "dirty electricity" and the harm that man made EMF can do are ALWAYS selling something.

Used small SATA HD off of eBay: $15
That case is a super waste of money if the only purpose the rig will ever have is mining. If you intend to add a crapton of GPUs via extenders, you won't even want a case. If you INSIST on having a case and will not be going the extender route, go cooler master HAF series. It's cheaper than that thing, and you'll still be able to add enough fans to keep it closed and neat.
Motherboard is overkill, too. Just get the cheapest one that has the number of slots you'll want. I've got some that I got after rebate for $15 that work just fine.

I'm opposed to wasting their or my time over such a trivial amount when their product isn't even in the wild yet. I'd much rather they spend their time making sure there is a timely and proper delivery than responding to a non-issue of a perceived few dollar discrepancy in pricing.

The poll options would be "yes" and "no" and there would be no question. I would then, later in the thread, use the results to argue a point that has yet to be determined.

No.

Everyone who voted for a raise in Gh/s should contact them to see what they would willing to do for their customers.

Are you serious? Is he serious?

To above 2 posts, if you look at the poll, you see it's not just me, many people agree with the idea.

Also there is a big difference between Walmart and BFL.

Walmart buys with their own money, then resells a ready product.

The entire BFL company is funded by the Bitcoin mining community right now.

Your poll doesn't match your post; it doesn't ask if it's unfair that the little single is half the price of the big single. It asks if BFL should update the firmware of the single to upgrade it to 65GH/s. Everyone who's ordered a single would agree with that even if they think the reasoning behind your post is moronic.

Thank you, I was having trouble putting it into words because I was so stupefied by this entire thread.

I demand some new trivial, pointless, stupid shit to argue about BFL. Are we unhappy that they take weekends off or something? Come on, there's gotta be some tiny little detail that you're unhappy with that you want to be super vocal about for some reason.

On a side note, BFL should have made the decision to stop having a forum presence here a long time ago. You people are insane, and I would be ashamed to have you as customers.

I'm mad as hell! I paid for 40 Ghash. I'm not getting what was advertised. I DEMAND that the number be lowered back to the original spec!
135  Other / Off-topic / Re: Petition: BFL SC Single should be 65Ghash and not 60Ghash on: October 14, 2012, 09:12:24 PM
And if I put up a poll asking if people would rather have the Single SC have 100 Ghash, I'm pretty sure 100 would get more votes than 60. I'm not sure what that proves.

I also had no idea that there was any difference between Walmart and BFL. I planned on purchasing all of my ASIC devices through Walmart at 12:01AM on Tuesday.

To have 100Ghash would not only be impossible as it would require every ASIC chip to do 1.2Ghz, and the maximum it can do is 1Ghz according to BFL, but also illogical as it would make other BFL products uncompetitive.

There is actually logic behind what I proposed, and it is to retain the original price structure of: The more you pay for a product, the more value per dollar you get", this is how it was until the LITTLE Single broke it.

What are you missing here? If I poll people if they would like more Ghash for free, they will say yes. That in absolutely no way proves any point you're trying to make.

I also don't give the slightest shit if their "price structure" is off by a few dollars. You don't know why their price points are where they are, and they have no obligation to explain it to you. If their product isn't priced to your liking, don't buy it. That's how it works.

Are you so entitled that you feel you can dictate the proposed specs and price of BFL equipment? This entire thread is ludicrous.

Agreed. I don't understand at all what the hell you're making all this noise about. Buy it or don't buy it. Good god.

Go tell Walmart that their snack size Pringles are priced unfairly.
138  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why is Butterfly Labs so secretive? on: October 13, 2012, 11:00:48 PM
I demand to know what color socks each employee wears. Until I have photos of each employee's foot next to a driver's license, I will assume that BFL is a scam.

Kind of on topic: I think I'm going to buy a Jalapeno just to mod it to fit in a 5.25 bay for the novelty of it.

You guys are still calculating math on current time prices. You're not adding to the table if there are 10x more coins for sale the price will drop, today you can get 11k for 1k bitcoins, after this launches, you might get 2k for 1k bitcoins.

That's not how it works. Difficulty adjusts to maintain a steady minting rate.
