322  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Shift the decimal point over? on: June 07, 2011, 09:04:40 PM
I support switching to microcoins as the default, but I'm unsure whether moving the decimal point is wise.

It would confuse people a lot, and the "Bitcoin critics" would have a field day. "Look, they're moving the decimal point to trick you! Scam! Ponzi! Bubble! OMGWTFBBQ!"

I was expecting something more like this...


The first rule of bitcoin club is you do not talk about bitcoins.

The second rule of bitcoin club is you DO NOT talk about bitcoins.

If your computer overheats, crashes, melts, or your power goes out, the mining is over.

Two GPUs per MB.

One pool at a time.

No cases, no monitors.

Mining will continue as long as it's profitable.

If this is your first night at bitcoin club, you have to mine.


Mischief. Mayhem. Alpaca socks.

Try adding yt:stretch=16:9 to the tags, should fix the aspect ratio I think.

You probably haven't downloaded the whole blockchain yet. Check on blockexplorer.com what the latest block number is.

Are you using Verisign's service? I'm having issues getting that working. Hopefully in a day or two.
I'm using myOpenID through a delegation on my own web page.
I gave up on waiting for this error to get fixed and created an account with my yahoo login. It worked yesterday, but today when I try to log in I get this, even if I remove all cookies:

Your site is good, but if your users can't log in it's useless. If OpenID isn't working for you, please just change to a simple username/password system.

reports having suffered a substantial loss (7000+ BTC) within the last week

That's a pretty big loss considering how much bitcoins are worth right now.  Over one hundred thousand dollars.

The easiest solution to a lack of peers may be to add some fallback nodes: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes

What numbers are your Bitcoin client reporting in the bottom right corner? (connections and blocks)

Don't reinvent the wheel, just use http://gravatar.com/.

BTW, OpenID login doesn't work, I got "Page not found (404)"...

Gravatar - great idea.
OpenID login 404:  I think I fixed just now.


I really appreciate the bug report.  Let me know if you want the short name "foo", and I'll hook you up with it.  (For now, I've disabled registering 3-letter short names, but it's the least I can do for your bug report and idea.)  Set up an account, and I'll assign you "฿foo" (if you want it)

OpenID login worked fine now. I created the username foo, please assign the short name. Smiley

what you think about the Photo suggestion from previous post ? i mean u stated that you most fear is that if u get attacked or hacked, this might give you time to react since even if he gets the database and change the addresses, changing the pictures will take him time and you might have a window to detect the intrusion !

I like the photo idea, and am working on it.  I'm torn between several different concepts.  Let me know your opinion:

1.  Let users link to a single external photo or image.  This is easy.  Issues:  how do I size it (or do I?), and do I need to worry about some clown linking to an obscene image?

2.  Let users upload profile images.  This is slightly harder, but pretty easy. 

3.  Let users design a background image and a profile pic, like Twitter's page.  This might be an overkill.



Opinions?

Just be patient... At least on my computer it takes quite a while for the window to pop up, I assume the client is faffing around with the database before opening the GUI.
339  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoins will die – an economics standpoint and possible solutions on: June 03, 2011, 09:48:47 AM
If you take the total amount of bitcoin in unit of Satoshi (that's 210,000,000,000,000)
You're missing a zero there.
