2061  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Aricie: Announcing a new trading bots platform on: April 30, 2012, 02:29:47 PM
In using the bot over the last month for the first time the bot has made -

6.088% earnings per period, $0.27942 total earnings, 6.088% total earnings,  -0.17068% total earnings fixed price, -3.386% total earnings fixed price $.

Also it looks like it hasn't made a trade in nearly four weeks.  I understand the market has been very steady recently but is this normal or is it because I'm using CryptoXchange.  If so would it be better to use MtGox as the exchange or do the settings need changing?

Well she has done fine and I feed her rice and any protein I can find when run out of premium complete dog food biscuits.  She only got arthritis now because she is now a pensioner.

I've always feed the dog left overs anything apart from chicken bones and chocolate (as there both bad for dogs) and she has never been overweight.  Maybe going for 5mile+ walk and runs every day as helped that.  She mainly eats complete dog food biscuits as there good for her teeth.  Just supplementing her diet with two 120g tins of sardines a week until I see a veterinary surgeon on Wednesday.  

They are called dogs for a reason and not humans or trashcans Wink

The natural diet of dogs is completely different from humans, most of the table food that humans eat is actually quite bad for dogs and will lead to premature diseases in alot of cases specially when the said dog is prone to the disease ie. arthritis/diabetes etc.

A dogs really needs to stay at a strict diet throughout its life and just because your dog didnt get overweight doesnt ensure its been eating healthy. I definitely dont imply you mistreated your dog, just stating that even with good intentions the outcome can be extremely bad longterm.

I know of working dogs in Ireland that have never seen "proper" dog food in there whole lives.  Dog's are naturally scavengers not just hunters and in their natural environment we eat anything edible.  Giving them a lot fat diet is important tho.  

Edit:  Plus low salt diet

I think you misunderstood me, a domestic dog needs a healthy diet and a strict one since they dont have to fight day in/day out for "scavenged" food which a street dog might actually be "healthy" with. With proper dogfood I didnt refer to canned/bagged pellet as foodsource only.

A domestic dog is much more prone to diseases when eating whatever-they-can-get than 24/7 active wild dogs(if that is the point you tried to make), not to mention dogs are carnivores not omnivores, so they are not actually meant to eat whatever they can scavenged, its bad for them longterm. Dogs in their "natural" environment, what exactly is that? You do know that the house of an owner is the first "natural" environment of a everyday dog, so no they dont actually have a "natural" environment.

Anyhow just my 2cents, I can assure you that your dog will have a great chance of recovering if you follow my advice of sticking to a balanced diet which tries to stick to only a few regular types of food sources and not whatever-is-available to feed them.



She mainly eats complete dog food biscuits and just gets scraps of left over food as a treat and change instead of throwing it out tho nothing too salty, too fatty or too sugary (just stuff like potatoes, bones and stuff).  I was thinking of getting senior complete dog food biscuits but they cost £10 for 3kg.  Bobbie-dog dad eat a similar diet and lived until nearly his fourteenth birthday.

Sorry for not reading the thread through but how well do these boards work on P2Pool compared to a normal PPS pool.  Thanks.
x6500s work the same assuming adequate available resources on the host machine.
Would a RaspberryPi be enough computing resource's for an X6500 on P2Pool?

My experience with a pandaboard shows that p2pool doesn't really work well on these platforms.
One suspicion is that SD card access might be playing a role, but I'm not sure.

OK thanks do you think a cheap second hand PC would be OK for running a farm of X6500's on P2Pool?

For litecoin to grow then users who don't know about bitcoin will have to be introduced to litecoin. So a new website/introduction has to be created for litecoin for people totally new to crypto-currencies. It would be good if this website was also a faucet and online wallet too.

If you haven't got the funds or the know-how to set up a large scale FPGA farm then look at the GLBSE where you can do small and micro investing with bitcoin.

2071  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: An Argument Against The IBB on: April 29, 2012, 05:40:10 PM
A bitcoin bank based on religion? Not really sure I understand this.. I mean what is the difference between the 'Islamic bitcoin bank' and ..say.. the 'flying spaghetti monster bitcoin bank' ?
+1 to this

also lol at 0% interest BUT there are other fees that are like interest but are not interest so god is happy and you don't go to hell


Exactly, I was intrigued in the concept of the islamic 'interest free' system so I checked out the mortgage terms of the Islamic Bank Of Britain http://www.islamic-bank.com/personal-banking/buy-let-standard-product/

Basically you repay the loan + an extra 4.19% interest for a fixed rate, except they call the interest 'rental payment'

You can call it anything you like but it's STILL INTEREST! Ridiculous!

If you don't like Islamic Banking then don't engage in it as all this thread is doing is more advertising for IBB  Wink

I've always though about this, and its terrifying because essentially yes, I think terrorists can use Bitcoin (In small amounts) to send money across the world
*gasp* And so can my grandmother! Shit's about to get real, folks.

 

Doesent have to be as strict or pain in the ass as the banking institutions, but we still need to come off as we are trying

Sorry but won't work once bitcoin gets on the US governments radar they will try and shut it down plus it will be hounded by nearly all the press.  Their more bothered about loosing tax and revenue then drugs or terrorism without a doubt.

Well I own a English bible from before any of the UK colony's nationhood and it say's colour and all words like capitalisation are spelt in the French tone not Yankee.

Does it use the grocer's apostrophe, too?

Don't know I'm not a language expert or a "grammar Nazi" my blog is more about numbers, figures and directions.  Inbox me with info about your company if you want it listing accurately.

In London they shot dead a Brazilian guy just because he was brown and acting suspicious the suicide-bomber threat was that high.
2078  Economy / Economics / Re: How to make bitcoin be worth more? on: April 29, 2012, 01:27:26 AM
But why did it drop that much?

Because it was only a bubble in the first place.  So the better question is how did it get so high in such a short space of time.

OK then yes the Angles helped bring about the name England and English from Angleland and Anglish but the English language deviates from old and middle German like Frisian.  Frisian is the closest foreign language to English.  Everywhere in the world where English is spoken was spread by agents of the king or Queen of England.  So England's English is the oldest and most correct form of the Germanic language of English.  No I'm not thirteen but thirty-two tho I am dyslexic but have studied Fourier Transforms and Matrix Calculus as a student.  So you may laugh at my language skills but at least I can count.

No, no, no.  Modern English comes from Middle English, which comes from Old English, which comes from Proto-Germanic, not German.  What you count as a foreign language or as a separate dialect is a political question, not a linguistic one.  See Scots for an example of a debated one that's either a dialect of English or another language.

As for “England's English” being the “oldest,” you could make that argument but not of Modern English English.  The speakers of the oldest variety of English have been dead for more than a millennium and speakers in England are not any closer to ancestral varieties than native speakers elsewhere.  I'm not sure how you conflate oldest with most correct, but English English isn't older.  It's not like a seed was planted in North America and in Oceania that grew up into some new species of English language with some minor mutations that are still understandable.  Any variety of English can be traced back to PIE.

British varieties of English aren't even, generally speaking, conservative.  (An often exaggerated claim is that for that, you need to go to the Ozarks or Appalachia but that's mostly lexical, not grammatical and certainly not orthographic.)

Spread by agents of the king or Queen of England?  (Also, nice capitalization scheme there.)  Nope.  Sorry, but not everyone that departed that isle was an agent of the king.  Most were not.  (Subjects, you could argue until the late 18th Century, but not even that if you count Scots as just a dialect of English (the United Kingdom didn't exist until 1707 and if you count from the union of the crowns (James VI and I), that's 1603, but agents of the man himself rather than agents of the institution would be a much harder claim to support.)

Well I own a English bible from before any of the UK colony's nationhood and it say's colour and all words like capitalisation are spelt in the French tone not Yankee.
