A hundred chips a week will just make 50 x Jalapenos.

I wouldn't be putting them in anything else, the object being to get the maximum possible number of orders out of the way with each batch of chips.

Nice!  And dang, at the same time, the power efficiency isn't enough for you to help me win my bet with Micon.  Sad  Unless you manage to find a way to measure wattage at the jack instead of at the wall.

At the jack?  Not sure what you mean...
Basically, measuring anywhere after the power brick, so you aren't taking in to account the power brick's inefficiencies.  To do this, you'd have to either cut the wires and connect an in-line measurement device, or you could simply split the two wires from each other (keeping the insulation on them is just fine) and use a clamp meter around one of the wires to measure amperage, calculating total wattage from there.



Clamp meters don't require the wires to be separated out. An easier way than cutting wires would be to make a simple adapter out of a male and female power jack (whatever size the adapter uses). This way you could just plug it in, inline with the adapter, without actually having to alter the adapter itself at all.
They don't?  Is that because it's DC instead of AC?  I know on AC power, they do have to be separated out.

The wires have to be separated out, or their fields cancel and the clamp will read near zero regardless of AC or DC.

Easiest to do it withe the modular PCIe power connector that comes with it or make up a DC extender cable with individual wires.

If people could help us mine to get to block 33,000 so the lower difficulty kicks in that would really be appreciated.

Multiplying by the number 4 is only considered innovative for a child in Kindergarten.  If this is the depth of what you can come up with just quit now.  Other alt-coins have already created several difficulty algorithm solutions, notably PPC, TRC and most recently FRC which is also conducting a hard fork to implement it, non of these coins would dare to call what your proposing innovative.  If it actually works for you it will be by mere luck.

Did you even bother to read the FTC forum thread on the formula discussion and the full technicalities, or do you just like jumping in regardless? All those other alt coin formulas you mentioned were discussed and rejected for one reason or another.

Here is the discussion link:

2585  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: BFL Downgraded my shipping?! on: May 15, 2013, 11:54:43 AM


These prices are nothing to do with shipping. They collected enough money to express ship everything the first time around. The USPS doesn't charge hundreds of dollars to ship a little package.

You are obviously looking in the wrong section, it can easy be hundreds of dollars eg.

Feathercoin 0.6.4 has been released and is available from the links below.

This is a mandatory update by block 33,000. After this block old clients will no longer be compatible. All coins and transaction are safe and will be the same in the new client. At current network speed the block adjust should happen on the 22nd May.

At block 33,000 the difficulty will be adjusted by 41.4% to help speed up transactions. After this block the difficulty will be adjusted in multiples of 504 making the difficulty adjust four times faster than Litecoin. The difficulty can change by a maximum of 41.4%.


http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=505.0


Don't forget to upgrade before block 33,000 peoples and help mine to get there faster.
2588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FTC and Hard Fork ? on: May 15, 2013, 11:32:44 AM
The hard fork kicks in at block 33,000 make sure you have updated your FTC client to version 0.6.4  especially if you are running pool.

Client is available from the usual download page:

Did you decrease TC like the error message said?

Try 8192

The post is in the wrong forum try the hardware forum not the Alt currency forum


2590  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2013-05-14 Department of Homeland Security Shuts Down Dwolla Payments to/frm Gox on: May 15, 2013, 07:24:19 AM
Ugh, I verified with Gox so I could do Dwolla transfers.  I hadn't even used it yet.  Now I can't, but my name might be going on a "list" if DHS seizes Gox's documents.

I have never transferred  fiat too or from Gox only BTC.


2591  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2013-05-14 Department of Homeland Security Shuts Down Dwolla Payments to/frm Gox on: May 15, 2013, 07:18:24 AM
For all the complete lack of planning we have witnessed with Gox, Karpeles should be given credit for his foresight of setting up the exchange in Japan. So far the authority there still doesn't seem to know what's going on and why should they care.

Karpeles didn't setup mtgox in japan, he just bought it.  As for Japan not knowing what is going on or why they should care, that's naive.  If US says jump, Japan will say how high.


So how does that fit with the US often complaining about countries that are "currency manipulators", when Japan is the worst offender and never gets mentioned.


US is the biggest currency manipulator ever, that's one of the main reasons Bitcoin came it exist in defiance of that manipulation. The US just point the finger at others to deflect attention.

Trouble is this kind of thing drives the markets, Gox went from $119 to $103 in no time when it hit the news.

2593  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: BFL Downgraded my shipping?! on: May 15, 2013, 05:58:31 AM
I sent them a copy of bitpay receipt and asked why my shipping status was still pending. Just got there response today, they want more money again.... They appear to be charging almost random amounts on there site. Prices very from $115 to $260 for shipping a single Jalapeno. Just depends if you draw the short stick I guess. Now I have 2 reciepts that say paid in full, with express shipping written on them. All I've earned is more time in limbo.  I'm tired of dealing with this kind of bs all the time. I paid 13 months ago and my order is still not in the system ffs!

BFL say they use USPS  for standard shipping so check the calculator to see what you should be paying, it only takes a few secs.

I find it disturbing that Bitcon devs do not react even a bit on problems many other cryptocoins ran into, like somehow Bitcoin is different and the same can't happen to it. Fools.
Once it happens, it will hurt a lot.

Why would the Bitcoin devs expect to see a rapid drop in hashing power like has hit a few alt coins? BTC certainly hasn't peaked, nor is it showing the slightest signs of doing so.

Come up with a decent name and it'll be renamed

What happened to Hazard coin? Cheesy

Leadcoin
Siliconcoin
zinccoin
steelcoin
PheonixCoin
AmberCoin
AngelCoin
Scarlet Coin
DoubleCoin

What about calling it Bitcoin2 that should impress people.

2596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [ANN][YAC][POOL]p2pool for yacoin!! on: May 15, 2013, 01:23:34 AM
Or at least publish the diffs so we can patch the buggy version manually.

This fork looks like a scam I bet BushStar was not consulted, he is busy working on the real FTC update

http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=363.135


Some people have no sense of humor, I swear.

The point is you are a scammer trying to leech of the Feathercoin name when this fork is not backed by the Feathercoin dev. You should have called it Hazardcoin, but then you couldn't ride on the back of Bushstars hard work.

I hope people realize what's going on here, but I doubt it. "ooh another coin pump and dump lets get in early"

Still got FTC running on my pool, what are you guys doing to stop FC2?

Why would you try and stop it? It's open source after all.

There is no compatibility with the real FTC.

Feathercoin has a stalled blocked chain.
Feathercoin2 does not.

Feathercoin2 is the clear winner here!

FTC is not stalled, I am still mining it happily. There is a fork of FTC planned to change the difficulty computation, all you have done with this fork is created confusion which doesn't help FTC at all.

 There will be a sticky announcing the real FTC fork when it happens.
