Design looks nice, but the card value should be denominated in BTC, not dollars.
+1. Design is beautiful, but unless you're preparing a system where the cards are essentially prepaid cards to deposit money in an exchange, denominating in BTC is much easier for the end user.

2923  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Snixed: scammer, no questions asked on: March 22, 2013, 03:05:02 PM
Everybody should avoid doing any business with user: snixed

He is a low post count member that frankly lured me right into an easy scam. I recognize that I completely overlooked a bunch of red flags and could have done any number of things to avoid this problem. He directed me to use escrow through a site called sell-bitcoins.com which was clearly a hoax, but I went for it.

So, please learn from my mistakes. When doing OTC trades, PLEASE PLEASE:
1. Trade with TRUSTED members.
2. Get onto IRC #bitcoin-otc and ASK QUESTIONS! If you have any doubt in your mind whatsoever on a trade, the good people there will help you!
3. Only trade with authenticated members.
4. Get opinions on REAL and trusted escrow sites if you are going to use escrow. Don't simply trust the word of who you are doing business with that an escrow site is legit, ask other people, they know!
5. Trade large amounts in multiple smaller increments, your money's security is worth the added time.
Uh, obviously you have to trust the escrow used. A list of some escrows can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=108716.0
Also, never touch deals that is too good to be true, or the user seems to be desperate. Do some searching around for the user/escrow/service you want to deal with, and check their feedback.

Do you mean this member: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=76428 ? Where did you conduct this trade with him; OTC or on forum? Please provide supporting details like SS's or messages if possible.

Took the tip and renamed the thread. I hope I get the best of both worlds now.  Tongue

Just go with the 'coins' translation then.  
Also, there's an error in the spelling of Indonesia in OP. Wink


Trivial: 硬 means hard, and 币 means currency. Coins are 'hard currency'.  Grin

I'm confused, what's the One Word in common? Or is it any word?

I know you reserved it for psy and that you want 1 per post, but would this be a good example?

Portuguese: prata: silver
Portuguese: ouro: gold
Portuguese: dinheiro: money
Portuguese: moeda: coin


There is no common word. Choice any word you want. I only reserved Portuguese for psy because I like to fuck with him.

Latin: aurum: gold

Gold has already been used, but Latin is reserved for you, polrpaul.

Malay/Indonesian: emas: gold
Chinese Simplified/traditional: 金: gold


I guess I forgot to mention that I'm not repeating words either, so I'll amend the OP.

I'll let you have first shot, John, of submitting another Chinese word, unless you want to keep gold and change the Indonesian word. Also, please provide the Latin/Roman script for your Chinese submission.
Okay.  Cheesy

Chinese Simplified/traditional:硬币: yìng bì : coins

^If multiple words are not allowed, please amend that to:

Chinese Simplified/traditional: 币: bì : Currency/money

I could live with a two word translation, as long as the word being translated is only one, which coin is.

Got it! Therefore, I'll do Latin: Gold for polrpaul, and Chinese: Coin for you, eliminating Indonesia.

EDIT: Now, I have three more problems with your submission: Is it simplified or traditional (I believe you meant only simplified)? Coin or coins (I believe it's either, in which case I prefer the singular)? And how do you capitalize yìng bì (I'm guessing only the first letter, but not sure on this whatsoever)?
There's no singular or plural in Chinese, so either will do.

硬幣 is traditional Chinese, and 硬币 is simplified Chinese. I'm not too sure about the capitalization, but normally we don't capitalize them at all. I guess capitalizing the first letter will work here.

Do you want another word for Indonesian?

Image where we would be today if China opted to not be such a closed society centuries ago. English, as we know it today, may not have came into existence.

Wow! No plurals. Simplified it is. I'll capitalize the first letter.

Shoot me an Indonasain word.  Grin (and be creative)

And thanks for all your input, to date.

Sweetheart, I hate to break it to you, but VPN is already a thing.  If privacy is the only upside to everything already existing being repackaged into a pyramid, you're not making it look very lucrative.

Tell you what.  I'll strike you a deal.  Provide all of this for free, for everyone, lose the foundation members, lose membership period.  Ask for donations without requiring donations (justify it as you please, it is a fee)  Hire a web designer, create an elegant website, state clearly what you're doing and how you're going to do it (I'm talking about technical details, not 'Oh, first we're going through this phase, and then this phase')  Then I will take back everything I said and consider BitBillions something more than a get-rich-quick scheme.

But it won't happen.  The name itself is just all wrong.  What you're trying to promote is not new technology, else your name would be, I dunno, BitCloud, or something.  If you weren't trying to run a ponzi, and instead trying to create a wonderful, new thing, you wouldn't have money on your mind.  This is not how people normally operate.  We, human beings, do not create with the expectancy of payment (and anyone who says they do hasn't created anything worth mentioning.)  Your intentions are transparent and your greed is overwhelming.

They're trying to market something that is free as a revolutionary item. I'm sure this is not done by furrycoat/'charity scammer' siesatsu as even he will not insult our intelligence like this.

Have you tried Ubuntu, et al. it's free to replace all of those...
Yeah, or even Google's cloud OS. It's so painful to read that even my granny knows this is a scam.

Wow, nice, at least now it is not a pyramid scheme any more, but a stupid bitcoin affiliate marketing site ;-) so we are definitely progressing here.

This short description is from a friend's blog post, please read it (not you TradeFortress, I am truly not here to convince you, I am here to provide more info for people who are maybe following this post)

"Bitbillions" is a CLOUD based peer-to-peer network that promises to  save users significant amounts of money by eliminating the need for  software programs such as office, adobe, photoshop, etc.  As an added bonus bitbillions grants internet users privacy when surfing unlike the traditional architecture that traces all movements.

I think she said that better then I did.

Well, that blog post just confirms what I had in mind with the site. Damn Pirate attracted all kinds of people here...
2934  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Did I trash my GPU mining, or is there a way to recover it somehow? on: March 22, 2013, 04:50:59 AM
Hey!

In the past 5 days I've just gotten into Bitcoin mining with my HD7970 using the latest version of Guiminer, I figured I'd have it run when I'm not using my computer. The maximum temperature of the card never went above 80, and I kept it at 65-70 (it's nice and cool where I am so it was easy to keep my computer cool)

Tonight, however, something unexpected happened: pretty much instantly after I hit "Start Mining" on Guiminer, my computer restarted itself and it can't see my 7970 anymore. I'm stuck using my integrated card, and would love to know if I didn't permanently fuck up my card, however I'm prepared to hear the worst Sad

Does anyone know what happened here?

Try reinstalling the drivers for the card and see, but I'm afraid you might have botched your card.  Sad
I burnt a few this way when GPU mining was viable.

I wonder about printing a physical bitcoin at Shapeways, with the private key contained inside it.

The key could be a PGP armored printout, or whatever the equivalent is in bitcoinland.

Whoever handled it could not use the numbers.

This is probably unworkable.  I have had too much coffee.


Uh, printing the key inside so that you'll have to physically break it to see the code?  Huh

Bitcoin is not "decentralized" proof me if "it is".
Its controlled by some unknown group of people behind it.
