Bad luck of the (electrical) draw. If you had everything the same and operated in Wyoming with <6 cent electrical rates I might ship all my equipment to you and rent a cage.  Wow that is one mighty low electrical rate! So your 1st year cost for 7970 with assumed 150W with overheads and GPU cost of 530$ is about: 608$! 467€ ... Wow. That is amazing! My electricity cost alone is 170€ / 221$. And they say Finland is the promised country of Cloud .... In your case you would however benefit from less hassle, but that's it. A correction my electrical rate isn't 6 cents. I was just saying I would colocate my mining hardware to your location if you could offer 6 cent electrical rates (plus some rent for cage space). I would actually consider setting up something like this if it wasn't for the shipping costs, handling costs, maintenance needed etc. Definitely need to have a dedicated person there 24/7 in case something goes wrong with so many miners and HW at your disposal etc. Do you have this OP ? Not sure of your question. Do you mean a person available to goto the location 24/7? Well the 2nd location is just 22km from where i live - So yes Takes 30mins for me to drive there, and i do hang around there for other reasons once or twice a week when i can. It functions as our warehouse, plus i assemble stuff there etc. No matter what, i will be placing my own rigs there. Only thing scares me is the temperatures in end of July, early August. Average summer temperature is just ~18C for past few years (VERY HOT relatively), 1971-2000 average summer temp 15.9C, 30km south of the location. That is exactly what I meant. If I was doing this sort of thing I would make sure to be there physically myself or leave someone there at all times to watch over the rigs. Even 30 minutes is a long time. A fire can start at any time and the sprinklers would destroy all the hardware I think. Maybe insurance could help. Anyway feel free to carry on. I was just suggesting a feature you might consider adding for your customers. I certainly would not put my rigs anywhere without constant supervision by a person that lives at most 5 minutes away etc. |

Personally, I'm waiting for June with my mining hardware purchases... Indeed. I am not buying anything till AMD brings out the 7990 and Nvidia Kepler is proven to be exceptional at mining or something along those lines : http://www.fudzilla.com/home/item/26308-nvidia-gtx-680-pixellized-in-more-detailAt this point is it pretty 90% clear that the low end Nvidia will have 1536 shaders. I keep thinking about this and if it will mine or not properly ... |

Still waiting for someone in the EU / UK to let us know what the total cost was including duty and all that crap ( VAT ) etc.
Any news about a EU distributor or something like that to avoid all these silly taxes ?
Thanks !

So it seems like there are 4 options for new rig software ( Linux ) :
-DIY with Inaba's tutorial
-kano's xubuntu guide
-Linuxcoin which is dead
-BAMT which is alive and kicking
Any others I have missed ?

I don't ignore anyone, either. RandyFolds often has good posts, actually. Maybe people immediately assume he's a troll when they see his avatar. I just figured out this exists! Where do I rank?
You're fourth in global numbers, with 19 ignores. Here are all of the people who currently have any ignore color along with their ignore count: 15 PinkiePie (banned)
14 bulanula
10 RandyFolds
8 Surawit (banned)
8 plastic.elastic (banned)
8 smoothie
7 JeffK
7 Matthew N. Wright
7 The_Duke
6 Boss
6 ALPHA. (banned)
6 CoinHunter
6 buttcoin1 (banned)
6 Synaptic (banned)
5 psy
5 panerai (banned)
5 Edward50
This list looks pretty reasonable to me. WOW. Talk about being famous for all the wrong reasons.  The most ignored person on the forum that has not been permabanned. Though all the people who ignored me did so probably because of the SC posts I did when I had the SC disease. Fear not, I have my antidote from SoiledCon. I am now 100% supportive of LTC. Strange though that me and Randy have the highest numbers. Also strange that we were the most vocal anti-BFL people. Weird, guess many people believe BFL is 100% legit even with these delays. I sure hope they are indeed legit but me and Randy probably got most of those ignores for that reason alone, I think. Don't know if I want to hold on to that title. Hehe. |

*Mental masturbation*
Well I guess we know where our piss stains come from now. Also, let this be a lesson to the idiots who even support (or think they need) "ignore" in the first place: This guy thinks Theymos suggested this feature. He has been misinformed and miseducated on a fact, just because he chose to ignore individuals. He will forever be wrong on that point, and he'll never know the difference because he <3 ignore. Yeah. I don't have anyone on my ignore list. Maybe I really need some help  Joking aside, I could not use ignore because in 1/100 posts even a major troll is bound to say something that is actually useful. Besides, I will always be wondering what was said and hidden by that ignore feature  How much effort will I have to do to turn this ":-(" into a " " where my own ignore button is  |

I feel I have to respond : I really am surprised because I mostly try to stay moderate and not be too controversial on these forums. I would never have thought that I would beat Matthew  I have changed since my SC trolling days and I am free from King RealScam's brainwashing ideology. I also do the punctuation thing on purpose. I think it looks neater that way and easier to read ... Just like using proper English : once you get used to automatically do it, it does not become a pain and it actually helps you. Anyways, I was here when BTC was $0.58 and am here to stay. Y'all should get used to my "brain damaged" punctuation |

My apologies, I should have quoted the winning PM. Payment has been sent. Matthew was first. bulanula I did not keep your PM, but I did quote it in my reply to you stating that Matthew had won. That will show the time yours was sent. It was about 5 minutes too late. OK. Fair enough. Well done Matthew ! Hopefully I will be quicker next time |

What's yours dated? Can't see because it doesn't record my outbox messages. BitcoinMint can confirm or admin can I think. |

I thought the rules said PM only !?!?! I sent PM ... "FIRST PERSON TO PM ME WITH THE CORRECT ONE WORD ANSWER WINS" |

I doubt anyone would fork over the 30K to get a Rig Box at this uncertain moment.
They may have delivered for the Singles but people are still complaining about them being very slow with this.
Might still be a long con so stay cautious I would say.
Myself, I eagerly await the moment gigavps got his Single but this time with the Rig Box if possible.

LOL. It looks like I am the most ignored on this whole forum. Can theymos confirm this I did not think I would get higher than Matthew or Atlas but alas it looks like I did  Hahah, nice, your ignore button is like totally yellow. Care to take some pictures ? Thanks ! I really think I am the most ignored on the whole forum. Not good  |

This guide is outdated. There is an updated guide, though I'm not sure that it will address your problem.
Care to post it ? I think people stopped using Ubuntu after the stupid switch to 11.10 and forced Unity onto the users. At least I did ... |

Ignore kliffen. He is trolling. Last week on the BTC-E chat he was saying he borrowed 400 000 USD to buy 10 rig boxes  There is no way you get a new 5970 now from anywhere simply because they are EOL for a long time now and 7990 should soon be out etc. |

can anyone in short give me an example, why buying hashing power could make sense?
if you pay with BTC, I assume, you just have a deficit.
same with other currencies in theory.
I just don't get the point.
If you don't get it then don't use it. Simple as that ! |

is our society changing from materialistic, to informationalistic?
the past generation was manipulated into thinking they were rich and could afford to take out loans to go on a trip Or have a huge wedding.
needless to say, they will be paying minimum due for the rest of their lives.
the next generation, is not so gullible, with the internet maturing, new tools Connecting everyone from all parts of the world, this is allowing for the awakening of a collective perception, in which information is constantly being better organized.
We are the next Gen, having grown up with limitless knowledge at our finger tips, we are starting to see that we are all in the same boat, and OH SHIT the ship is split in two, and some fucker is telling us to "Stay calm everything is just fine"... we dont buy this BS anymore, and we will not stand by as government go to war for profit.
We will use what binds us together, to allow us to fight the good fight, the fight for free and accurate information
We will not live in fear.
Organization of information is are weapon, miss-information is our enemy.
GO BITCOINS! the best way known to man to Organize the distribution of wealth.
Sure. With people like ArtForz having 60k BTC mining them on a 4870 for likely less than $100 and with noobs that bought them at $30. Can't possibly think of a fairer way of distributing money, really |

I think you should do this. Tell him to buy about $100k at first so as to not raise the price too much. Start the rally engine ! People like you make me vomit in disgust. Seems like your sarcasm detector needs a check mate. Take it easy ! |
