bid vs ask ratio from MtGox website is 38 vs 126 right now. So unless you're suggesting that because of the move people who'd normally put in bids didn't have access to the site I don't see how that event could have had any effect.
I'm suggesting that we're likely only seeing a fraction of the bids. Prior to the server move there were bids at, for example, the 1c mark. It makes very little sense to me for all these bids to have been pulled by users at exactly the same time that MtGox moved servers. It makes more sense that tcatm's experience at Bitcoincharts is true also for MtGox's market depth reporting. |

aticonfig won't let me drop my 5870s below 1200Mhz. Anything I can do to address this?
What happens when you try? (i.e. what error message etc do you get, if any?) I can go as low as 900: user@host:~/bin/DiabloMiner$ aticonfig --odgc
Default Adapter - ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series
Core (MHz) Memory (MHz)
Current Clocks : 900 900
Current Peak : 900 900
Configurable Peak Range : [600-900] [900-1300]
GPU load : 99% |

I dug through the source code of Ufasoft's miner.
...
Twice as much network traffic, and incompatible with our pool simply because they don't include the credentials in the headers on every request.
Maybe you can email ufasoft about it and see if they can modify the way their miner works.
[Tycho] (deepbit) has already raised this with ufasoft. Apparently it's because of the HTTP library ufasoft is using. I don't know if ufasoft is planning to remedy that - it kind of sounds like [Tycho] added a workaround to deepbit. |

Just tried. Indeed, closing the terminal doesn't kill the screen session.
That's always been screen's main selling point for me - I used to use a dodgy modem connection that dropped frequently. Even now, it's useful for using a netbook on the train - when I go through a tunnel the connection drops but processes keep running in screen. |

I don't really understand how to use screen to keep a session running on a remote server. You know, so it doesn't end when I close the shell?
Just detach your session with "Ctrl-A D". You can then logout, and reattach later with "screen -r" already mentionned. That's useful to know - I usually run screen in a terminal (or in PuTTY on Windows) so I can just close the terminal without bothering to detach. |

Heh, I have been having trouble with screen since I tried starting a TF2 server. I barely got that working. It seems you really have to play with this stuff to understand it.
Most of the time you can along just fine using only... Ctrl+A, C - Create a new virtual terminal (VT) Ctrl+A, N - move to the Next VT Ctrl+A, P - move to the Previous VT There's obviously a lot more to screen than that, but honestly that's all I use 99% of the time. Edit: Oh, and obviously "screen -r" to reattach a screen session...! |

There's a poll already. Linux, mostly, with an Android phone. I use Windows at work, but mostly as a thin-client to SSH into *nix.

Is it? I don't understand how he can take something that's open source and put a copy right on it? I'm not a programmer so that might be the reason why. Also I'm very wary about some big company having anything to with the BitCoin clients.
I of course appreciate his effort I just don't fully understand what he is doing and what his motivations might be.
He's not "take[n] something that's open source and put a copy right on it". Google held the copyright (as he developed it at Google) and instead of not releasing it, they chose to release it under an open source license. Most (all?) open source software will be copyrighted. I suppose [mike] could have released the client into the public domain, but I suspect Google would prefer some sort of license. |

Hi I've just finished my first Bitcoin related project, an RPC proxy. The purpose of the application is to proxy requests from the various miners to a weighted lists of (possibly) remote servers. This allows you to have your miners to do a set percentage of work for a pool, and the rest locally (for people who don't want to give up hope of finding a block all by themselves  ) Click here to download the app, it requires Java 1.6 (1.5 might work, but I didn't test it). You'll need to edit the servers.txt file to include all the servers you want it to talk to, including usernames and passwords. Then point all your miners to localhost on port 8331, with no username or password. Regards elFarto 1DLJrSyHW1rqBq6fVAAiPCzcP56v2Rz8fm Apologies for sounding a wee bit paranoid, but is the source available? There was a (Java) app posted here a while back that did naughty things with other people's money... |

Working fine here with Diablo's miner. Nice job on the website, too!

However, most factory workers are factory workers because all they are good at is their specialized jobs. I think that's an overly pessimistic view of humanity: my experience is that most people have surprising capabilities when given the freedom to use them. Factory workers have lives outside work, in which they may run household budgets, manage local sports teams, volunteer for church fund-raising drives, etc. Few, if any, factory workers are mere drones, only able to focus on one task. There shouldn't be an obligation for them to have a stake in the company. Why should John Doe be forced to have a role in management duties when all he wants to do is screw caps on tubes?
Sure, partnerships are fine and dandy but they should be voluntary.
I agree with this. If all someone wants to do is screw caps on tubes, that's all they should do! |

And yes, those who operate the factories should own the factories.
>implying most factory workers have the skills necessary to manage a factory. Or the desire! Not everyone wants that much stress on a daily basis. The stress would be spread, however. I found being a sole-proprietor very stressful; bringing in a partner dramatically reduced that. If all the workforce were partners (like this UK department-store and supermarket chain) the stress of management would be spread much more thinly. |

I don't think any miner will ever put free tx in before fee tx. ...
How do miners have a choice to process fee transactions first? When I set my client to generate coins (/ blocks as I understand it) there is no option for me to work only on fee transactions/blocks. The person writing the code for a miner would write it so that their miner preferred fee-bearing transactions. As far as I know, none of the publicly available miners have this as an option yet. |

Thank you so much this is the problem durp durp. But a friend of mine used it and it didn't add that .txt extension. What do you guys do to counteract this?
Been a while since I had to suffer Windows, but IIRC you could tell Notepad to save as "any file" instead of "text file", and then add the proper file extension (".conf", not ".txt") at then end of the filename. Edit: OK, in WINE, Notepad has a "Files of type" box, and an option to select "All files". I assume it's the same in Windows-proper. You'll still need to add the correct file extension (".conf"). |

And it's also possible if you live in a small country called Slovenia of which most people haven't even heard of and with a population of just 2mio people one of them being me. I don't doubt your word that you tried but maybe you should have tried harder.
Slovenia is part of the EU, which exempts many gold coins from value-added tax ( 1, 2). IIRC, gold is subject to tax in many other jurisdictions. (I don't recall which ones: I'm fortunate enough to live in the EU too!) |

It's Spanish for "hello".
I figured that out myself. I just wanted to point out that when serious people (and especially serious businessmen) write in english, they write in english - not spanish. That was kind of tongue-in-cheek, I assumed everyone would be familiar with "hola". Well, at least we know what his nationality is - it will be easier to find where he lives in case of he scams somebody.
This I'm not so sure about - it's an easy way to pretend to be something you're not, and there are plenty of countries with Spanish as the primary language (aside from Spain, there's most of South America...) |

I heard about a guy who made a very small purchase of something quasi-legal here. He knows my cousin's bosses girlfriend. When I hear how it goes I shall report back
14 hours and there has been zero response regarding purchase (aside from the Confirmations my BTC were sent) BTC, or your cousin's boss's girlfriend's friend's BTC?! :-) |
|
|
|
BTW,
WTF does "Hola" mean ?
It's Spanish for "hello". I had the same suspicions, too - glad I wasn't the only one or I'd have thought I was being paranoid ;-) |
