Credit cards don't charge off for 6 months of non-payment. I'm not really sure the accounting treatment they get till then . I  pretty sure they don't book the "loss".

Well maybe they wouldn't be such jerks if they understood these aren't like credit money loans.
There is an actual loss.
Banks and credit card companies never lose capital in real terms.
Maybe I'm just being optimistic about ppl. though.

Everyone likes a good train wreck! It's the same reason why people gawk at roadside fatalities. Plus it strokes people's egos and the sense of them saying to themselves "Thank GOD i AIN'T THEM!"

good luck finding it on newegg, officially deactivated  Wink

Card wont be easy to find for under 220 brand new.

That was a very tough 7 seconds. I almost didn't make it.

# of posts apparently got changed to 200 posts minimum.
If you look back at the July financial report August was a pretty good month default wise. IBB adjusted the conditions so maybe that's a factor. The TOS  are stickied in  the lending sub-forum.
I'm really surprised not much has been done in regards to the scammer issue in general.

Don't mine in crossfire. Configure guiminer to use each card separate.

Everyone = the whole of all sets

The set of all sets = 1

xfire slows mining down like 1%-3%. There is no benefit to using it.

You can try Trixx instead of Afterburner to overclock.
190  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Any solar powered rigs out there? I have an idea for one, check it out! on: August 28, 2011, 07:41:49 AM
Ok, this would do what you want (cheapest possible solution).

http://www.aliexpress.com/product-gs/473114247-Free-shipping-10-100w-solar-panel-grid-solar-power-system-800w-wholesalers.html

So just a bit over $2300 for a solution. Is it worth it?

Price seems too good to be true.
191  Economy / Speculation / Re: Holy CRAP the manipulator has pulled out!!!!! Freefall seems inevitable on: August 28, 2011, 06:58:09 AM
The 7200 x $8 is based on a false assumption. Namely that those 7200 BTC are going to be sold on for US dollars the same day and all the $ denominated exchanges will have price parity.

The fact is that doesn't happen. BTC are converted into several currencies and ppl. don't sell all their BTC everyday. There are plenty of people in it for the long term. There are also people the buy things with their BTC.

7200 x whatever is bogus.
192  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Dilution and Inflation on: August 28, 2011, 05:42:32 AM
Not sick of the topic , sick of the deflation thing. Bitcoins won't experience deflation for a LOOOOONNNGG time. There are 21 million BTC to the 8th decimal. That means there can be 2,100,000,000,000,000 units of currency. More than enough. It's probably more than all other currencies combined.

The other crypto-currencies are not as secure as BTC because they don't have the same hashing power. Block chains can't be intermingled. The copy coins can only be traded for BTC but at this moment they are inferior.
193  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal > Coins on: August 28, 2011, 05:18:16 AM
I didnt wanna exchange with anybody here. Was hoping for a site like mt gox that exchanges paypal. I hate having money in my paypal. I always end up blowing it cause Im worried they will lock it.

Maybe buy some item that someone wants with Paypal then drop ship to their house?

Problem is no one in their right mind will send BTC first unless you got crazy rep.
194  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Ixcoin 0.3.24.1 mandatory update released on: August 28, 2011, 04:37:21 AM
There is nothing mandatory about this release. In a decentralized currency environment, the users are the ones making the decision to upgrade or not. In fact, they can take the ixcoin block chain wherever they want and reject your rules Wink


^^^ AHAHA I like this!

He probably didn't skim enough the first time and is getting greedy. I wouldn't use this client till you go over the source with a finetooth comb.
195  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Dilution and Inflation on: August 28, 2011, 04:09:24 AM
God, I am so tired of the deflation thing. BTC goes to 8 decimals. This makes the standard deflation /inflation model irrelevant for quite a while or till 1 BTC = $10,000,000

ComedyCoin - Go see some other thread.
197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal > Coins on: August 28, 2011, 12:29:10 AM
It's a simple fact the BTC is Paypal competitor right now, that's why they have taken this stance. What is Paypal's stance on pre-paid access? I think a MTGOX code would qualify as this if not BTC outright.

What is Paypal's stance on Linden Dollars from Second Life?
198  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin PR effort on: August 28, 2011, 12:23:10 AM
BTW what is the BTC best case scenerio? I think this needs to be worked out. Having just another form of currency doesn't do it for most people. It's simply reinventing the wheel.

Also decentralization is too abstract for most sheeple.

I think the best selling point is the fact the BTC is the electronic equivalent of cash. How that is great in a practical way needs to be built upon.
199  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin could be used to create a silkroad for books on: August 27, 2011, 10:42:32 PM

Now of there was a book (not an ebook) on beating or curcumventing the financial system by investing in bitcoin...

that doesn't take a book. Simply stop valuing your Bitcoins in US $. Done.
