I am pretty much a skeptic.

The most interesting thing missed everywhere is this

... _____________________________________________ Deaths/ 1M pop
New York   293,354   +5,041   22,275   +367   239,861   14,953   1,135   805,350   41,051


The highest death rate is in New York    

no place is worse.

Lets play with this

1135/1000000 = 0.1135% death rate

or 99.8865% are surviving it.

New York gov Andrew Coumo claims

Quote
https://time.com/5826686/coronavirus-antibody-tests-new-york/

... A state survey of about 3,000 people found that nearly 14% had antibodies, suggesting they had been exposed to the virus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said at his daily news briefing. ...

14% is a factor of 7

7 x 0.1135 = .7945 %.      All the numbers are said to be way to high.  but those are the worst numbers anywhere.

0.007945 x 8,000,000,000 = 63,560,000.  that is the maximum world wide possible death amount  and about 635,600,000 may need to go to a hospital.


in 2015 around 57 million died world wide so this disease at its worse may boost deaths. so that the world has a negative growth of humans.

I feel the conspiracy people do not understand why the world's nations are doing a massive lock down when the numbers I have up

63 million are the worst possible.  and the actual pace we are on for all deaths is not reflecting that the covid-19 is going to kill 1 million no less 63 million.

I think nations acting together to lockdown the world's economy has frightened them more then the coved-19


My wife was in hospital with 2x pneumonia in Jan. I was really sick in Jan.  5 of my wife's cousin's have tested positive for covid-19
One was on a ventilator he is off it and getting better.
3 more were in hospital.
1 was not.

We are in NJ, NY, CT tristate which is hit harder than Italy or Spain.  So I know it is a difficult disease.

But conspiracy nuts will have their way with this for years to come unless covid-19 2x comes along making this look like nothing.



Note using worldometer numbers we are on pace for 58.7 million dead of all causes.

Maybe 500,000 to 1,000,000 tops will die from this covid-19

The world's nations are actually cooperating on something so conspiracy theorists are going to be out there.

@ philipma1957


 - non ozone generating UVC bulbs (non ozone so that it won't generate smell)


Right,  but smell is not what one must care about the most. O3 is very dangerous substance for human, therefore ozone free bulbs is flat out good solution to use in the rooms with people. My house is equipped with the air-recirculation  having Osram antibacterial bulbs emitting  UV  at 254 -256 nm. Such lightwave is known to be the most effective to destroy virus.  Those bulbs have filter coating that absorbs shorter wavelengths which have  the potential to produce ozone.


Yeah O3 ozone is very hard on my asthma.

Which is why I was and am an airflter nut in the first place.

Water filtering was always done somewhat  but I got really deeper into it after the Toms River NJ and Flint Michigan water pollution issues.

I whole house filter for sediment

 then shower water filter for bleach
and kitchen water reverse osmosis for all drinking and cooking water.

When I had kidney stones I also did distilling of the ro water but it was too costly for the extra benefit.

They gave me 9 points for my order of the t17+

I went from 43 to 52

It would be nice to know what I am getting and holding onto the point for.

I have a 47 dollar coupon in hand. It expires april 30

I have a t17 due to arrive on May 1

I may order another one next week.

I will go from 52 to 61 points.
14226  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: FPPS or PPS Pool with instant same day payout (Recommendation) on: April 24, 2020, 08:16:44 PM
viabtc or slush

viabtc allows daily payouts on pps+

you can set as low as  0.001 btc

that is about 70th worth of gear.
14227  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Bitmain Introduces the S17+ and T17+ on: April 24, 2020, 01:29:32 PM
If I pay the lower tax I will order again.

my points are at 52  we still do not know what that gets.

I have a 47 dollar coupon  which drops the gear to 762-47 = 715

This will give us  2x 58th = 116 and 70 th = 186 th

we will bring the 3 pieces to clifton  and shut down 29 s9's  they do 310th

but 310-186 = 124th   less hash  some time in may.

we will hash for  a month or two after that and add some s19 or s19 pro.

14229  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Over paying for hash power, why? on: April 24, 2020, 10:10:52 AM
used to work in 2017 with s9's

not working any more.

I suspect old s9 firmware allowed it to work  or it was in old nicehash code.

fuck it nicehash is done for now.

I gained

0.0088
0.0081
0.0169  paid weds

lost

0.0060
0.0060
0.0040
0.0160 from moving hash

0.0169-0.0160 = 0.0009  a win

I am owed

0.02
0.002

0.022   this should get paid  weds the 29th

but I gained 0.0009 even if they crash and burn again.

it would be nice to see the 0.022 be paid on weds the 29th.

I am owed

0.00164
0.00478
0.00661
0.01303  total of hack money never paid

So if they make the weds payment

0.02200
0.01303

0.00897  net ahead.

14231  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Cost to perform a 51% attack on the BTC blockchain? on: April 24, 2020, 02:51:04 AM
First off China can simply go to bitmain and tell them to expand manufacturing s19pros.

next China can tell bitmain to build many many many containers. ten fold what is normal.


then commandeer two or three dams.  set up a 65% of the network attack and its done.


it would take six months and be unstoppable by private industry.

only a rich country could counter it.

doubt this is going to happen.
 
formula to calculate are nice but kind of worthless in the case of btc.

they would be better in smaller networks as you can get in and get out in a small network.

14232  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Over paying for hash power, why? on: April 24, 2020, 02:13:50 AM
put it on top line of your pools

do

p=0.0300

see if that works

sha256asicboost.eu.nicehash.com:3368

your btc addy

p=0.0301

IIRC  it will only mine if price is higher the 0.0300 or 0.0301

it skips to next pool if price is cheap.

note this does not seem to work will try a few other options.

used to back in the day.

we are down a little

Latest Block:   627310  (6 minutes ago)
Current Pace:   99.0107%  (335 / 338.35 expected, 3.35 behind)
Current Difficulty:   15958652328578.42XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Next Difficulty:   between 15904586546106 and 15942138039734
Next Difficulty Change:   between -0.3388% and -0.1035%
Previous Retarget:   last Tuesday at 2:43 AM
Next Retarget (earliest):   May 5, 2020 at 3:44 AM  (in 11d 16h 37m 54s)
Next Retarget (latest):   May 5, 2020 at 6:04 AM  (in 11d 18h 57m 57s)
Projected Epoch Length:   between 14d 1h 1m 22s and 14d 3h 21m 25s

If we go flat and don't pass 16.5 this time. on may 4-5-6
the ½ ing comes  which will certainly crash difficulty 5 to 10 % on the may 19-20-21 jump

So it is possible that an ATH for diff was back in  March 10 - March 25 at 16.5529

If it breaks like LTC did last year.  that will not be topped  until 2021.

I am pointing 400th of my 1900 th at them

It is paying at around 2.5x  so 400th is paying like 1000

It is as if I boosted from 1900 to 2500th

If they never did the 2017 rip off I  would have all 1900th at them.

which would pay like 4750 th.  I can't afford the risk  that they may take the money and run.

I would get 0.073635 a day vs the 0.02945 I get  but pay out would take a while maybe a week. So I only moved 400 vs 1900.

Hi philipma1957:

Litecoin full node software for the FutureBit Apollo miner released yesterday. It works very well.

Just to let you know  Wink

I don't have access to that gear it is up in clifton.

I assume I need to burn an sd card correct?
