When someone mines with an ASIC or graphics card, do the pieces of hardware carry any sort of unique identifier that could be passed on? Or is it strictly sending the mining work and the only way to guess what type of hardware is being used is through estimating based on hashrate?
Thanks

Regarding the subject of the post: it's about time something like this gets started. I hope this gets off the ground.

Whats the problem? Its a vapourware organisation, FT mentioned a specific item of vapourware it'd be nice to have, all good so far... -MarkM- First three sentences on Wikipedia: "Vaporware is a term in the computer industry that describes a product, typically computer hardware or software, that is announced to the general public but is never actually released nor officially cancelled. Vaporware is also a term sometimes used to describe events that are announced or predicted, never officially cancelled, but never intended to happen. The term also generally applies to a product that is announced months or years before its release, and for which public development details are lacking." I assume he is using the term in reference to the bolded part of the definition? |

21 years? I thought Dank was 18/19... Is this a planned diversion?

You can buy a HDD removable DVD drive caddy tray and physically pull it out.  That's what I bought, but I need to use the internal SSD for database stuff(much faster) for work so the internal drive needs to be protected from the removable one. |

As D&T said, truecrypt it probably your best option.
Another could be formatting the one drive with a Linux file system (ext3/4): Windows can't natively access Linux file systems unless you install a 3rd party driver, so only install the driver on the drive with the wallet. Probably not 100% fool proof as a virus could ship with the drivers, but I've never heard of one.
This would be a good option but I need to be actively using Windows only programs on both hard drives when I'm on them. I wish I could just dual boot Ubuntu or something and do all my work on Linux but it's not an option for me yet unfortunately. |

look into bios settings. Maybe you can deactivate the corresponding controller.
I looked around and couldn't find anyway to disable the SSD unfortunately. If it wasn't a laptop I could just physically detach the drive or something, but I don't think I can do that with this. |

There is no way to hide a drive from the OS. One option would be to create a truecrypt partition (encrypted "drive") on the SSD drive and simply never decrypt it except when you are booted into the OS you like. Since the decryption key won't ever be used/stored/left in temp files/in memory/etc on the "win8" partition won't be able to decrypt the truecrypt partition.
Baring user error (like accidentally decrypt the secure partition from the "causal OS") there is nothing that can be done. Any malware can see the drive, see the encrypted partition but lacking the decrypt key can't do anything about it.
I figured this might be the only way. Only reason I haven't tried this option yet is I don't have any experience with TrueCrypt or encrypting drives in general. I just don't want to screw anything up and have to format/reinstall/reconfigure everything on the laptop and deal with the potential downtime from work. Is it as simple as booting in to the encrypted drive prompts me for my key, which then decrypts the drive and loads Win 7 and runs as normal? And when I boot in to the Win 8 drive I just have an encrypted volume visible? That would be good. |

So I have a laptop with Win 7 and an SSD hard drive that is going to be used for work and potentially keeping a wallet on. I have bought an another hard drive that fits in the slot where the dvd would normally be. I have bought and installed Win 8 on this one and I want to use this other hard drive for fun and not worry about malware. I would like to have it so that when I am booted in to the hd with Win 8 it has no way to access the SSD with Win 7, basically I want it to be completely safe incase I get a virus on the Win 8 drive.
So does anyone know how to go about this? I tried messing with windows permissions, but that turned out to be a mess and doesn't look very promising. It seems like this would be as simple as password protecting the SSD or something but it's not and it's fully accessible and my wallet and work documents are right there.
Any help, guidance or recommendations is greatly appreciated.

Seems expensive.... 14 btc for a g of blow?
If the cocaine is as pure as they state it is, it's a reasonably good deal. Considering most street coke that costs around $60 a gram is about 15-30% purity, if they are really selling 70% purity stuff for $130 it's reasonable value. That's a big IF though, cocaine is notorious for people saying it's the best stuff ever because they've never had anything but total shit before, plus dealers lie about the quality of their drugs as a general rule. I don't have any personal experience with SIlk Road coke because those days are behind me, but if I was a cocaine user I probably would check it out. Even if it's not as good as they say it is, it's almost certainly going to be lots better than whatever you can get locally, unless you live in La Paz or you have incredible connections.

I think if you learn the major scale, the minor scale, and the blues scale, you'll quickly find that it's quite easy to fiddle away and make some decent sounding stuff. I think if you least just a tiny amount of music theory stuff will start to click and tunes will start flowing. After the scales you can start memorizing chords and once you can transition between them easily by practicing a lot, you'll sound pretty good.

We should do that again some time.
Yes, this was awesome. I think it would be cool to have this as a regular thing. |

I think MelMan2002 should get the full bounty, that was a good job by him.
I'm not really clear from reading the post about what technical issue you were supposed to have missed that wasn't covered by people already.

Sonny K is Sonny Vleisides I believe, so I think you can cross that one off the list.
