My thoughts? Paper is far too fragile. Please encode it in a set of these: http://delkin.com/c-155602-archive-archival-gold-cd-r.html

Then let us know where you're keeping it in case we need it.
Optical disk usage is already dying now. They will probably end like floppy disk: no one has a floppy reader today

So good luck reading those disk in like 10-20 years, let alone 300 years

It's driving me crazy! So I deleted the .conf file, started cgminer, entered the pool details, waited for a few minutes, and - still had nothing!
And about the model, all sources reported "AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series".
The crazy thing is that you don't even know what GPU you have  Embarrassed

You cannot expect the card to work after 1 year (when the warranty expired) so just pull up your wallet and buy a new card!
Not everywhere warranty is 1 year

Here it is 2 years for example

Next time ask him to pay you the fuel he uses

It's like giving a lift to your friend with your car, you can divide the fuel expense with him instead of paying all yourself

Stability is NOT good

Since there is a limited number of bitcoins, if more people start using and buying them the price must rise.

If the price stay the same then it means that btc adoption is a bit slow. Wich is not a problem now, after all we still lack infrastructure, easier clients etcetc. But in the future if there will be more ppl using btc then the price must rise.
Stability is good if the price rise is extremely gradual. Bitcoin's deflation mechanism takes literally a century to play itself out.
A century if the user base does not increase

But since user base is very small, it can quickly increase bringing great price rise

actually my parents pay the electricity bill.

This is ethically and morally reprehensible.

You are in effect just stealing from your parent's wallet.
bulanula: actually my parents pay the electricity bill. But let's go with antigravity plus 102% efficiency engines.

Exactly. Since you are stealing electricity indirectly why not become the power company for your neighbours and / or neighbourhood and get the dough REALLY rolling it.

Hint : if somebody is paying for it, it ain't free !

Bullshit

His parents give him permission to use the computer and he just does that: use the computer. The computer use electricity? Omg, is it a breaking news?

I've thought it is just a much simpler solution to give Bitcoin wallets an "expiration date" of sorts. You must make a transaction using each of your wallets every year (or some other arbitrary value) to keep your wallet "renewed" so you keep your coins. If a wallet is lost, no transactions are made and the wallet "expires", "invalidating" those coins in the block chain and adding them back to the mining reward

NO

Go elsewhere to try to steal other people saving.

Just NO.

Quote
However, the idea of a default future transaction is a good one, as follows: Imagine I can sign a 'transaction' that says essentially that another wallet can spend my coins after a certain date. Now, I can 'opt-in' to a system where I sign my coins to a 'back-up' service effective one year from now if I haven't spent them. Per our contractual agreement, if I lose my keys for whatever reason, they will sign my coins over to a new wallet once the time limit expires and they have access. This allows me to never give them access to my coins as long as I have my key, because before the period is over, I can send my coins to a new wallet and make a future-transaction from that wallet.

Obviously the period would be customizable, and there's trust being placed in the backup service, but its a way of distributing loss-risk around, and if you only 'banked' with local people, I'm sure local contract law would give you good recourse in case of theft.
NO

Yes, censoring the opponent is always a good idea.
