Eew, so granny making a mistake will waste money? Is the waste limited in how much? Could it be only a satoshi instead? Or does it have to be the amount of the whole transaction?

I am going on hiatus.
Just as everything is hotting up like last summer? You're going to miss out... |

Okay I was wrong. If they release the coffee cup warmers first, then those buyers will be fine. Unfortunately, their 1 TH people will be pissed if they sell enough coffee warmers.
Seeing how the Single came first followed by the Mini-rig, I would assume the small devices come first this time round as well. |

Ohhh forgive me for being a noob, but now I remember where I heard about you. I was reading Maria's post history and there are several references to you in there. Apparently she liked you for some exchange services you provided.

Enjoy your $150 coffee warmers because using them for mining will be useless.
Why? |

Good points. The judge may differ, but in my opinion if TM was banging GZ's head against the pavement he can reasonably consider his life in danger and use deadly force. He could not shoot him for a punch, but who threw the first punch is critical because you can fight back with punches and those things tend to escalate.
Then another matter arises: How to shoot someone if your head is banged upon the pavement? If you are in mortal danger due to a melee fight you shouldnt be able anymore to take a weapon, aim and shoot. So if you are in a melee fight and your life is in mortal danger, then most obviously you will die or beat down your opponent in the very same melee. If your opponent releases you you are no longer in mortal danger or if you finally beat down the opponent you arent in mortal danger anymore either. Thats the point about mortal danger: Either you die or you win automatically. No need to shoot someone in the back (metaphorically). (all IMHO) Finally some logic. Do we know how many shots hit TM, and where they were located? For example, someone who is getting their head banged on the pavement is not going to be able to aim accurately enough to kill on the first shot with a bullet to the head. He could however do some body damage. |

wouldn't you just trade in 8 mini rigs for 4 SC rigs
and
14 singles for 7 SC singles
for a fairly break even trade?
That is still a lot of processing power (4 TH/s) just for the SC rigs

To prevent PIN bruteforcing, it seems to me that it would make sense to require that the PIN be verified against a remote server that has limits on the number of PIN submissions per $time_period. If the PIN can be determined with the use of the track data and some cryptographic brute force, I think the project would be lost before it is started, especially since 10 numerical digits are trivial to bruteforce. However, making the PIN completely unrelated to the track data would make it a bit more secure.
However, I'm not sure how to do this. Especially without a central server, although that might be something that could be implemented as a bridge solution.

He doesn't seem to have any trouble raising a fuckton of capital through the sales of bonds, so it's a non-issue as far as I can tell.

Satoshi would not want it to come to this.
How do you know? Are you channeling him now? I just think he would have wanted "the people" to have the coins, not the millionaires who can afford these special mining machines. So what if the Federal Reserve bought a bunch? If they are only $40k for a 1 TH/s unit, what is stopping them from dropping $10 million on 250 of these units and having 250 TH/s? And what's stopping them from doing that over and over again until they control the supply of bitcoins? Now, that would increase the value of the bitcoins that are already out in the wild, but we have to be aware of the fact that it allows the upper 1% TOO much control. I'm not a millionaire, and I can afford a Jalapeno device for $150. I'm sure lots of others can too. |

Still butthurt?
I stand to lose NOTHING.... although there are users on this forum who stand to lose up to $130,000 currently. This needs clarification IMMEDIATELY. I've tried to follow your logic of how they are about to lose, but I have gotten lost every single time. Would you care to explain it without any logical fallacies this time? |

For the record, I never use your crappy software ... I use cgminer like a man !
cgminer is just diablominer rewritten in C. trolololol |

Jeez no need to flame.
Please ignore all of Bulanula's posts.
Whatever... |

Yep, that's why I said different thermal dynamics, not better thermal dyanmics. But in the case of a server where these will be used in, it is likely that the case fans will take care of excess dissipated heat with no problems. It also appears to have a plastic coating on the metal shell, unless that is just paint.
EDIT: cmg5461 beat me to it.

Does the trade in for value apply if we acquire singles on the used market? EG if I own 20 singles bought from another miner, will I get $599 each in trade-in?
YES ! Please ignore all of Bulanula's posts. According to BFL's FAQ, what he said was correct. Upon release of BitForce SC based Singles & Mini Rigs, all previous generation BitForce products will enjoy a full 100% trade in value when used towards the purchase of the newer generation replacements. This means your current device is protected from depreciation through this evolution in technology. This buy back offer is good for all previous generation BitForce units whether purchased directly from us or from a third party. Full terms of our obsolescence guarantee will be forthcoming. |

so that's what it would look like if Intel made a GPU  F'n sexy! Yeah I love the industrial metal look without all the plastic. Helps heat dissipation too  This is not crappy AMD card with plastic cover  You do realize thats an air channel, right? Hot air channel will heat up top metal cover by convection ( hot air rises ) and conduction and the metal will get hot up there. Even the plastic on my AMD cards is quite hot to the touch and not normal room temp. even if it does not conduct heat as well as metal Ur an idiot. Not totally, a metal shroud would conduct more heat, resulting in different thermal dynamics. But I don't know how much of an actual temperature difference there would be. |

Remember that ASIC stands for Application Specific Integrated Circuit.... A CPU uses the same technologies as any other custom and application specific chip, it just is more general in purpose and application. |
