If you don't want to see anyone's trust ratings (other than your own) outside of 'Untrusted Feedback' then you can add the line ~DefaultTrust to your trust list. Be warned that this will (obviously) remove all trust ratings, meaning you may end up dealing with known scammers if you don't check well prior. Let me just add that this ruins the point of the trust system. A better way would be to type in -*insert name here* in the box to make sure their reps make no effect on the trust you see. Well, if you're looking for a way to opt out, and I can see reasons for that (what if you don't trade and you're merely here to learn about technical matters? There's a lot of silly drama related to trust ratings and if you don't care then maybe you just don't wanna see them), then it seems like a great way to do this. Also, it seems to provide a direct and accurate answer to this: is it possible to turn trust and associated comments off?
Well, it wouldn't turn them off, but it would move them to "untrusted" and make it so that none of the ratings appears when you're reading a thread.

Price is frozen at 672.42 in the website, and the api is stuck at 671.78. It's been like this for a couple of hours. Current USD average should be 684.6
Must have been some temporary issue. It seems to be fine now. I see the current price at 666.55 USD as of 5 July.

I haven't used primedice in ages. I just sorta quit gambling on dice sites. Nevertheless, saw the headline change here and wanted to know what's new. Can anyone provide an overview of the new features?

I got my satoshis back! I just picked up this thing again and see where I could end up with noob python skills and new insights. Estimated time to check all possibilities was 270 days but I found my key already within 20 hours! I thought to let it run, and resume the script after optimizations to speed things up. I was not going to wait 270 days, but I was (extremely) lucky I guess. My script does approximately 15 keys/second (4 instances, 60 k/s total) and checks against a cleaned up version of https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=267618.msg15398605#msg15398605The address generation goes by 100 keys/second, but to check that address against the UTxO goes even slower, 15 keys/second. There were 750 million addresses to check... It's very slow, but I'm still happy with the result. Although the reward was only 1 mBTC, I learned a lot during the process. Now let's see if I can optimize this a few factors... Lol, only 20 hours of cpu time but nearly 9 months of forum time. Anyway, congratulations! I also learned a lot by playing around with key and address generation. Cheers!

Nice that you helping people. I know its legit but I have never liked adding my username and password to a not program. I'm scared it may be fake and steal it or someone manages to attain the files off my PC.
What's a 'not program'? If you're talking about the script I posted above, simply read the code and do what you want with it. If you're talking about seunjie's dicebot, ask him if his code is open source and then read the code and compile it yourself.

i have never scammed anybody on this forum, yet i have -16 for selling something against tearms of sales even though i have 19 positive trust ratings, i have 4 negatives that gave me -16 people, i know im not doing something ideal, but im not a scammer, i have always treated my clients with utmost respect, as they can all confirm with this post i personally ask Vod, mexxer-2, ibminer and Lutpin, to remove my trust rating, as it is simply not fair, have replaced every not working key my client had problems with, and the price on those is so low that you cant hold me by the same standards as when you buy a windows key for 199$ from the store there are numerous forum members doing actuall scamming, i was scammed by forum user lind82 for 160$ 2 days ago, and he had -2 trust atm, i had -16 im not asking for the world here, but after being a member for some time i think i proved im not a scammer, the only thing your trust rating is doing is turning down my (potential) clients and sending them to other sellers, who are doing the same thing im doing not to say i know a seller (i wont be naming him ofc) on the forum that is here a bit longer then me and has +1 trust rating, compared to my -16, and he is doing the SAME THING please dont be hypocritical and let me do my work in piece, this is my only source of income and you are making serious problems to me (financially) i hope you wont take this the wrong way thank you for your time, and have a good day The trust system has all sorts of issues. I have no idea what you've done and I'm not interested in looking into it. I will tell you that there are known scammers around here with neutral trust according to the default trust list. If, as you say, you can straighten it out with these guys, then that's your best bet. Also, a lot of these guys simply echo each others ratings so you ought to find out who actually accused you and sort it out with that person. Note: if your thing is selling the MS product keys, I know Vod hates that and is unlikely to change his rating.

I personally would never insist on a single person to act as escrow, but rather would suggest three potential escrows if my trading partner does not trust me enough to send first to me (and vice versa), and let my trading partner decide.
Right, but if anyone looks into your trust rating, they'll see that of the three you suggest, all three are probably actually you. So you fool your partner into sending first even if they don't trust you. Then you collect a fee for fooling them. Love it when scammers give escrow advice!

I'd advise you not to change your trust list randomly, or at least not if you aren't completely sure what you're doing.
I'd advise you to, right off the bat, remove default trust from your trust list. The centralization of trust scores around the default list has led to years of problems and abuses. It's something that theymos has been trying to avoid and it's really only there to get you started. If you remove default trust then you can see that suddently everyone's trust scores go to zero. Now, take someone that you trust who's left some feedback and put them on your trust list, you'll now see that that person's ratings show up as trusted. Build your own trust list. It's important. The more people take this on for themselves the stronger the community is against trust-based attacks like the ones that Quickseller (inter alia) have pulled or were planning to pull. Of course it's important to take a look at the default trust list's output from time to time (what ratings show up on who when you have default trust added) just so that you can stay abreast of what all the sheeple are looking at. But if you're an independently minded person who believes that decentralization is crucial for strength, put your own trust list together and manage it actively. Just my opinion.

Or buy them with fiat. With the halving coming up, it seems to me that the price is actually low right now. You can buy now and sell back in 6 months for a nice profit, in my opinion.

With 189 players connected, SwC Poker is currently a bit smaller than Seals was. Blame it on the windoze anyway, when we build out our platform and fix our bugs, these games will fill up. Remember table starter rakeback is on for all games, 6max+. Playing 2 or 3 handed gets you auto-50% rakeback, so that is a proper incentive to help me start some games until we have all clients & the affiliate program. I know your main focus is still on a software, but give it some thought I think if their focus was actually on the software, they would have found some way by now (more than 1.5 years) to make this work on something other than Windoze. I was playing today and the client kept crashing , I don't know what's the problem should I uninstall the software and redownload it ?? usually an update message pops up but it's not showing anymore , but Idk if my software is up to date anyone facing the same thing ?
And, from what I've heard, it doesn't exactly work well on windoze. Games are good, we need players to come and play.
For players to come and play, you need working software. When SWC started out with the legacy of sealswithclubs, their brand was unbeatable, they really only needed a working product in order to have massive market-share. Because they've done next-to-nothing (it seems) to get out working, cross-platform software (a hallmark of sealswithclubs), their brand has been in a slow but steady decline. Now it's getting very sad, but many of us realized quite a while a go the trajectory these guys were on.

Thanks seuntjie, I'm not really trying to compete with your dicebot here. The point of this thread was just to offer up some scripting I was playing around with a few years ago in case anyone found it useful. Clearly there are those that have done a complete job of this work and if your point is just to bet automatically, then that's probably the best way to go. For me, playing around with scripts and coding is fun just for the education of it, so I'm often interested in a DIY approach even if it means that I wont end up getting as far as someone who's working full time on the job. BTW, when I last tried to look into your dicebot stuff (again, I think this was years ago), I want to say that I ran into some roadblock. I don't remember if it was that your stuff wasn't open source, or if it was just that your stuff is all in C#/.NET and there wasn't a reliable compiler on my system (GNU/Linux).

Are you some kind of clairvoyant? You appear to be having troubling "visions" about Segwit/LN, based on your perceived complexity of these solutions, informed by your feelings.
If complexity were an issue in it's own right, Bitcoin 0.1 would never have got off the ground, the system has been complex from the start, and it needed to be to solve the problem Satoshi set out to solve.
You're trying to talk to a world-expert on Bitcoin about the way these changes affect your emotions. Don't be surprised if no-one cares.
It's his MO. He uses this kinda prose to push people around all the time in the escrow and loan world of this forum. It's kinda funny to see him try this shit in a technical discussion though. Cute.

Can't believe a coin called Clams held it together this long.
The name is goofy. just-dice.com is a powerhouse. You could probably call it just-diceCOIN and we'd still know what you were talking about.

"Or else I would be able to make the world's only profitable dicing script." LOL, it is fairly elusive. I think I've actually made a profitable dicing script, but the return is abysmal. I'm better off throwing my money in the betting pool and taking other people's money.
A couple of things. 1) I haven't used primedice in years. It's possible that the API has changed and that the scripts in the OP no longer work. 2) As far as I know, if you've actually made a "profitable" dicing script, then what's happened is that you've been lucky. Assuming you're playing against a fair house with a house edge, it should be mathematically impossible to guarantee a profit. If you've got one, then you're just in a situation where you haven't yet converged to your estimated long-run return.

how is working multibit? i didn't use it in a long time
I still use it occasionally. As far as I know, it still works without a problem. I do agree with some of the folks above that it seems like it's not really as loved as it used to be. Back in the day it was one of the major alternatives to the satoshi wallet. Now, I think there are more updated choices which provide the same or better functionality and have more active maintenance.

Long, slow death of seals with clubs seems to have started with the transition to "swc" a year and a half ago. How long until someone swoops in and made a nice bitcoin poker house that works on any computer? Alas. RIP. I miss the good days. If they're killing off the krillrolls they really are going to just be a tiny club soon. Maybe better to take down the public website and just run a vpn somewhere for the weekly meetup of the former swc players.

This is good site to check daily bitcoin price and also the site has useful tools so i marked this site in my browser for future reference.
Indeed, bitcoinaverage, as far as I can tell, is basically the best for bitcoin price. +the tools and api +the open source code. I'm a long time fan.

I'd still come back if they ever made software that works on Android or GNU/Linux.

I actually just replied to him in PM, but I think the answer to his question is on the order of 400BTC. He needs to double check the rate and the actual value of the reward. But if it really is 8BTC and he has 50% done and he's getting (for example) a 1% rate, then he'll need to wager 400BTC to get to 100%.
