1621  Other / MultiBit / Re: What should i do as a bitcoin user when the fork happens? on: May 29, 2015, 06:27:43 PM
If you are talking about proposals regarding block sizes, you might have to update Multibit, but the addresses won't change.

That's gotta be the one he means.  FWIW, OP, you'll probably want to update Multibit several times between now and the date when the hardfork happens on block size.  Anyway, good points cr1776 about the fact that there are little forks all the time.
1622  Other / Meta / Re: Who is the little bitch who added that POS Quickseller to default trust again? on: May 29, 2015, 06:07:42 PM
edit2: there was at least one person who was scammed because my negative trust ratings were not seen by default in the one week that I was off default trust, and I think that fact should say something about the effectiveness of my work

Sweet!  I found the traditional quickseller masterbation post!  I love it.  I thought he had been masterbating less in public since I started the game to catch these masterbation posts.  But I guess sometimes you just feel that pressure and you gotta let it go.  For the record, a quickseller masterbation post is one where he "toots his own horn" (to use a euphemism) without providing any concrete proof or evidence.  "At least one person .. " lol.
1623  Other / Meta / Re: Nominate (insert name here) to the default trust list on: May 29, 2015, 06:04:56 PM
While there's nothing wrong with the OP having a little fun.  It should be pointed out that being on the default list level 1 means that effectively, you are on Theymos' trust list.  Being on default trust level 2 means you are on someone's trust list who is on theymos' trust list.  There's no real meritocracy here, it's just a matter of who ya know and cetera.  Most of the folks who come and go from default trust are doing so on level 2 as someone on level 1 trusts them (perhaps temporarily).  You can see this with quickseller, he was on there for a moment from Badbear, who then had buyer's remorse.  Tomotocage has readded him, we'll see how long this lasts.  In the end, the people up the chain are more or less responsible for the behavior of the people down the chain.  If you don't vouch for the behavior of someone on your trust list, remove them!  This includes people on default trust.  If you don't like what someone on default trust is doing, put a tilde '~' before their name on your trust list (or remove the default trust list altogether).

I've argued many times that the default trust list is the crutch which people need to get rid of and it just enables people like those trust rangers that OP complains about to rule the forum and cause problems for people who cross them.  The best thing we can do is remove default trust from our lists and build our own lists as we interact with people.  A better thing, which is a long shot, would be to encourage Theymos to change default trust to "opt-in" rather than "opt-out".  This would also encourage people to build their own trust lists based on experience and weaken the abusers of the trust system.  The next best thing would be to change the warning message when someone has negative trust from the misleading and inflammatory "WARNING ... EXTREME CAUTION" to something more descriptive "This user has received negative feedback from someone on your trust list", with a link to your trust settings.  That would, IMO, encourage people to learn about the trust system and how to use it properly.

Ok thanks.
I only said couse someone asked where to play...?

How long ago?  This thread has no real discussion going on for months.  Nultidah was here trolling recently.  Then there was a bunch of swearing at each other.  Look at the dates on the posts, it's important.

Play at luckyflop guys!

Many freerolls and 5 free chips for new accounts!

Not very classy to pop into a thread dedicated to another poker house and try to advertize a competitor.  But also inept because this poker house has closed (as of December 2014).  I think that if you want to go ahead with the off-topic advertising, then you should at least to go to the proper thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=962440.0

Good luck!
1626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 'Casting out nines' instead of leading zeros on Proof of Work on: May 29, 2015, 04:42:05 PM
There are two issues:

First, in the current system, the solution is not a hash with a minimum number of leading zeros. That is a common misconception. The solution is a hash that is less than the target value. The current target value is 0x1686F5 x 2168.

Second, your system only allows a change in the difficulty by a factor of ten. That just won't work.

This post shows why this proposal would have less functionality than the current system, but even before this post, it wasn't clear to me how the proposal is any kind of improvement.  Why are the "casting of nines" any more interesting than a hash which sums to a value lower than the target?  I don't get it?

There was an altcoin called primecoin (I think) which claimed to be about exploring the prime number space.  I'm not sure if there was actually any interesting math in that one but at least on the fact of it, it seems more interesting than this thing with 9s.  Primecoin may still be around, FWIW, I don't know.  Also, sorry if I'm missing something about these nines, I'm not trying to be rude.
1627  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Installed bitcoind on server debian 8 on: May 29, 2015, 04:30:54 PM
I would not bother too much but I have another problem the demon bitcoind when I type "bitcoin-cli getinfo" gives me back:

error: You must set rpcpassword=<password> in the configuration file:
/home/maicol/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions.

The file contains bitcoin.conf:

server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password

So, you probably want to double-check the location of the file.  In this recent thread, a user had a similar problem:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1065676.0

You can follow the same steps as there to make sure you have the file in the right place.

Since we're sharing, here are my stats:

Tournaments Played 90
Tournaments Won 7
Tournament Cashes 12
Tournament Earnings 13.39 Chips

Hands Played 354
Coming Soon #
Coming Soon #
Ring Game Earnings 8.98 Chips

I honestly don't get why people won't play ring games. It's far more effective way of earning chips and way more fun. I've made nearly 9 chips with only 354 hands, and I'm rather poor-skilled player.

I agree, ring games are the best.  The freerolling, all-in nonsense is a bit of a gas from time to time but it's not normal poker.  If you like poker, you gotta sit down with some actual chips on the table and see what you can win by risking them.  When someone gives you a stack of freeroll chips, there's no cost to shoving, so the game is all weird.

You're welcome.  And hopefully this demonstrates how useful it is to actually post the terminal session with the messages you got when requesting help.  Believe it or not, some people actually know how to decipher those messages Smiley

I'm thinking that most likely, your problem will go away if you install libtool:

Code:
sudo apt-get install libtool

Cheers!

PatSNL is right.  MZ is, ironically, accusing Bicknellski of breaking a forum rule for being off-topic, but accusations are off-topic here.  So, I have to lol.

Isn't Bicknellski* a thread hijacker? He hijack most threads to attack QS and Dogie. Exposing their scams(if any) is ok but he hijacks every threads. I thought this is against forum rule but I don't see any action by mods. I hope he got a warning.

* https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=76550

Well that really depends on what your opinion of what hijacking a thread is.  If it's posting off-topic, then yes, you are right, that is against the forum rules (in the first post in this thread).  On posting off-topic, I've seen you do that a few times before.  I've seen QS do it as well.  I've seen Dogie do it A LOT.  The mods seem rather selective on who gets in trouble for that.

For another possibility of your definition of hijacking a thread, if for example, I make a thread that it's my opinion that all miner manufacturers must make the outside of their miners purple, and you become the major participate in the thread (but you are posting on-topic), I don't see anything against that, in the rules, nor in my opinion either.

I would think if the intent of your post is about your opinion that Bicknellski is attacking Quickseller and Dogie, that should be posted in Meta and is off-topic in this thread (which is against forum rules).  If the intent of your post is about questioning a user breaking forum rules, I think this is the right place.  You should separate those 2 concepts into the proper board areas, so you don't break the forum rules.

Where does swcpoker rank in terms of the btc poker sites?

Is there any chance they add 1 chip multi table tournaments?

The old seals had the 1 chips tourneys, which were fun.  I still haven't been able to log in---waiting for a client---so I have no idea if these are still a thing.  I think once they get a working client for people who don't use .exe, they'll be back on top basically immediately.  The danger is that someone comes along and scoops us all up while we're just here waiting.

1634  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: ndnhc is an extortionist on: May 29, 2015, 07:41:41 AM

Additionally, somewhat unrelated to the accusation in the OP, however is relevant to the above point, ndnhc continued to blindly back DaDice after it became probable that they are scamming. DaDice was also blindly backed by many of the same people who are defending him in this thread.


You're not telling the whole story here.  Using the word "blindly" is merely an accusation.  FWIW, ndnhc likely has a lot more information than the average person about the bankroll of dadice.  So it's a little ridiculous to suggest that he's acting "blindly".  Also, if you look carefully at this thread, you'll see that very few people are "defending" him.  Most people who aren't throwing him to the wolves are simply saying that they're waiting to hear the rest of the story.  Calling those people's actions "blind" is mere weasel words---intending to weaken their opinions by sneaking in adverbs which are unsupported.

If we want to examine the rest of the story about ndnhc's "blind" backing then I think we'd look at his post history and see where he simply offers to Shorena that he hopes that dadice will show him the bankroll and that he has confidence it's there.  To tell even more of the story, we should mention that only about 12 hours before this thing with NLNico and the bankroll began, you had showed up in the dadice thread trolling, telling everyone that these guys were scammers because they didn't take your word for it when you called someone else a scammer.  As an account trader/farmer, we have no idea how many alts you're working with and whether this is some kind of coorindated attack on dadice by you in an effor to exact a vendetta on them for not "respecting" you when you tried to tell them what to do.

There's a lot of history between dadice and quickseller/acctseller (and possibly other alts), unless he's gone and deleted these old posts, people can read up for themselves on it.  I merely caution everyone to take QS accusations against someone who has worked with dadice with a large grain of salt.  Carra23 has said in the dadice campaign thread that ndnhc is supposed to be back next tuesday.  I, for one, am not going to contributed to this FUD, but will wait to see what happens.

@grendel25, try it out, it's not really a website, you just need to download the client and then play.  They have the client for linux, (and I assume windows and osx).  You can have a lot of fun and it's possible to win big.

@melody82, it's free to try.  You can log in and just hang around and do nothing.  You can pick up a few ksat for free to gamble with but obviously you're not going to get  alot of free money.  If you buy in, you can gamble just like a normal casino.  The difference between this and a casino website is that you have an avatar and you can walk around and chat with other players and watch what they're playing, etc.

@fox, that probably happened, but probably about 3 or 4 years ago.  DT has been around a long time and it was around when bitcoins were worth pennies.  Nowadays, 50mBTC jackpot sets off fireworks and you see a system message.  Just the other day, I saw a guy win about 50 BTC, but that was pretty extreme.

Russian chat broke down Wink
everything seems to work for me just fine do you still have any problems with it or it was just temporary issues?


If you refresh, then yes, it shows you the "russian" language, but when you actually type inside "привет" this is what you get.
is it possible that the problem is from your fonts. you might be missing the specific font or maybe the associated font file that is required here is corrupted on your device.
I doubt that they can type Russian but are then unable to see it, though.

Also, I think almost every single device available will have Russian fonts available as Cyrillic script is encoded quite heavily into Unicode. It's not exactly hard to implement.

Looks to me like an encoding problem.  Those characters are unicode characters, just the wrong ones.  If these folks were merely missing glyphs in their fonts, they'd see ??, not random unicode characters.  I dunno, do you think someone set big-endian rather than little-endian on utf-16?  I dunno why they wouldn't use utf-8.  Anyway, I'm just curiuos about this matter, I don't type in russian on PD, but I'm curious about multilingual issues in general.

anyway why is this thread so inactive. tons of new members showing up every day you would think thered be more posts. achem.... this game is awesome btw please join if you want to:D

I've said the same thing as well.  I guess dragons tale members just tend to talk to each other in dragons tale, not so much here on bitcointalk.  And yah, it's a fun game, I play on there about once a week or so.
1638  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Installed bitcoind on server debian 8 on: May 28, 2015, 08:32:44 PM
I would need to be installed on a server bitcoind debian 8 so you can make interact PHP with bitcoin client but the guides that I found online are all debian 7 and when the use of debian 8 are full of errors. Then yesterday I found out that the development of bitcoind for debian Stopped at a couple of years ago. So I'm wondering if anyone knows how I can install it on debian 8 server I should I use a ubuntu server.

Ps. Sorry for my bad english



I'm surprised that you find issues using debian 7 vs debian 8.  Anyway, if you post your error messages you'll have better luck with replies helping you to understand them.  Anyway, I've used bitcoind on debian jessie and debian wheezy without issue.   Similarly with debian vs. ubuntu, the differences are quite minimal (at least when it comes to building/running bitcoin-core).  Post your error messages and we can probably help you.
1639  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: ndnhc is an extortionist on: May 28, 2015, 08:24:36 PM
Is this a vendetta from quick seller? Quick seller of course dont like ndnhc after he allowed tspacepilot to join the campaign even after quick seller give red trust to tspacepilot

While you're certainly correct about quickseller having run an abortive smear campaign against me, to set the record straight, the word came down from the dadice guys that quickseller's feedback on me was considered bullshit, and for ndnhc to re-add me.  It's doubtful that quickseller knew this, however.  Anyway, ndnhc has alwasy been polite and kind to me, but he followed the rules as set by the people he was working for.

If quickseller is trying to frame him in this, it would be a shame.  Although it may be that he's simply frustrated with his inability to successfully troll the dadice threads (as he tried for a while).

Who knows?
1640  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: ndnhc is an extortionist on: May 28, 2015, 06:54:53 PM
Strangely, I see his trust as a yellow "Huh".  Never seen that before.  Maybe a weird math error in whatever the new trust calculation code is.

Edit: He's still not in the red O_o

He is now.

This is quite damming evidence, and it will be interesting to hear the defense.

With QuickSeller around, I'm glad I never had/have any secret alt accounts.   Smiley
