Definitely the Antminer S1 with a nice CPU (Power Supply Unit).

Doable (second hand / on Ebay) for under 100US$... (prob. around 75US$ for both).

Allereerst bedankt voor alle tijd die je hebt gestoken in het moderator zijn. Voor zover ik hier heb mee gelezen heb je het top gedaan!

Dat gezegd hebbende zou ik toch graag een verklaring willen waarom je zo met de botte bijl te werk bent gegaan in het bfl topic? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=150803.msg9812351#msg9812351). Ook goed als je dit niet wil maar ik denk dat het beter is om het gewoon 1 keer goed uit te leggen voordat er allerlei speculaties komen Tongue

Sterker nog,

En dus los van het feit dat PB heeft gemodereerd in een deel van dit forum waar hij helemaal niet toe bevoegd was;

Ik vraag me af of dit niet ook wat te maken heeft met [EDIT] een misverstand/miscommunicatie [EDIT: richting een] een mede forum lid (hoe verwerpelijk persoon ik diegene zelf ook vind...:

[EDIT]

PS, begrijp me niet verkeerd hoor, ik vind het mooi dat je even afscheid wil nemen van deze publieke taak. En het is ook fijn om te zien dat je tegelijk mensen oproept om zich te melden om deze taak van jou over te nemen. [EDIT: niets te maren: hartelijk dank en succes!]...

Can't believe that people get taken on this...
The point is to make it so ridiculous so that only the dumbest of the dumb respond.

Let me explain.

The Prince sends out 200,000 spam emails with something that is plausible and makes sense. He may receive real responses from 1,000 people, all of which will take a significant amount of time to converse with. However, maybe only 1/500 people will actually go for the scam after that.

The Prince sends out 200,000 spam emails with an absolutely ridiculous explanation. He may only receive 50 real responses, but 1/25 follow through. He's able to get the same number of victims while spending time only conversing with 50 people instead of 1,000.

The pure stupidity of these emails filter out all reasonable people immediately, which is the Prince's goal.
How would he have actual conversations with 1,000 people? I would think this would take ridiculous amounts of time. Any email that a "prince" sends is going to have to be automated, along with any response to a response that it gets.

That's the whole point Bitcoins101 is making; it would take too much effort to respond to a 1000 people. That's why the bait is so poorly written, to attract only the dumbest of people.

And no, not automated; as Rawted already said it's an "old" scam...

Is anyone using a tool to monitor multiple SP20s from one location? I use mdude's antmonitor for my ants and would like to have that same visibility into the SP20s without having to login to each one.

Sorry for maybe asking the obvious, but where can I find that mdude's antmonitor?

this?
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=596178.msg6548589#msg6548589

yep, that's it. I posted on there to see if he would add support in to his monitor for the SP20. Which would be great as I replace S3's with SP20's :-).

would be nice if he could get it to work.  As I now have 6 s-3's and 4 sp20's

Thanks @all!

20 watts over a year is  almost $60 here in Australia so yes, lights and bezels etc are wasteful if your electricity is expensive...

Wasteful no matter what the price of electricity is...

Why not use a RasPi? Can run 24/7 on less power and uses UTP/Linux...

My actual rig is is written up here. Though the blade has been replaced by 2 rockminers. Those rockminers have been sitting idle for 4 months Tongue

TL;DR: The RasPi has only 256MB or RAM. That is not really enough to run a full Bitcoin/P2Pool/namecoin node. Together those use at least 1.2GB of RAM on my machine. I am also not sure of the CPU capabilities of the RasPi. Lately P2Pool has been using 40% of one core. I am interested in replacing that machine with something a little less power-hungry though.

I am also going to need moar disk-space soon too. I have only 10GiB left on a 50GiB partition (left 4GiB for swap, 4GiB slack (because: SSD is "not for server use"))

Good point, in your setup a RasPi would not make sense...

But for Firewire2013 (using the standalone S3's) who uses the laptop for remote access only... I would recommend a RasPi... (Cheaper, runs 27/7 on Linux).

By the way, your laptop is probably going to die like my did. I had to reflash (oven)  my motherboard more than few occasions but finally it gave away. HP made defective design in which the heatsink wasn't able to dissipate heat efficiently.

The documentation for one of my sister's (Toshiba) laptops actually said: "Do not run for more than 30 hours at a time."

Why not use a RasPi? Can run 24/7 on less power and uses UTP/Linux...

Ok, I've got the popcorn ready. When is the action going to start?

Most of the "action" is being commented at: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=150803.0

Thanks guys!

Where did you buy the SP20?

Josh! How nice to see you here too! Since you seem to have missed these questions in the other topic:

1. Why did you lie about Monarch delivery estimates while it was already clear to you in 2013 the estimates were false? (Proven by the Skype logs of your conversations.)

2. Why did you lie about ordered hardware being used for mining on behalf of BFL, while you knew "burn-in" testing was going on that did not use the testnet? (Proven by your own previous posting and the FTC raid.)

3. Why did you lie about the FTC raid at BFL (disregarding them as "persistent rumours"), while - in fact - the raid was going on? (Do I really need to reference proof?)

As I was a BFL customer, I would really like to get these answers from you, instead of having to  #ASKFTC ?

An SP20 will do around $50 per week.

His dad will prob. be paying electricity too...
2856  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Bitcoin Miner as a job on: November 21, 2014, 01:33:10 AM
Get a job.

I am all for free speech.

That is the (origine and) nature of fora.

As long as everybody stays "civil" (and more or less on topic) anything goes (even ad hominem et al).

If you would like the "facts" please bookmark the court filings page and read them yourself.

If you like discussion put your big boy pants on and go through the whole nine yards...  Tongue

a. What's the laptop for?

b. Why don't you put the router/switch just on top/beneath of the S3's?

PS I like your recycling of the packaging material...  Cheesy
