Could somebody feasibly make a living playing online computer games? Slaying dragons and such all day, gaining armor and weapons, selling weapons for Bitcoins, and on and on? That's badass!
With bots, yes. You happily set up some accounts with a bot and they farm all the day. Then you sell. Profit. Sure, accounts can get banned, but usually there is still a lot of profit. In a legit way? Well it depend... maybe yes. And this oggr seems very interesting, i knew about it since a lot of time but i never played diablo 2 so i'm not really interested. But if it grows and start to cover other games... |

I'm working on a miner that you put on the blu ray disk and on a customized firmware. You put the firmware in the device, you insert the blu ray disk with the miner and it mine. It should be ready in 4-6 weeks

He premined 12M of scamcoins.
Now he changed the block reward to 0.7 scamcoins per block. So you mine, find a block and receive 0.7 scamcoins. Meanwhile he has 12 millions.
So much fail

Isn't all of these based off bitcoin?
Solidcoin is different, it's centralized and few nodes can do what the fuck they want. And they are already happily messing with it. |

I dunno about RAM mining but some guys tried sound card mining.
I'm still working on BluRay mining btw

3Mhash/s is very wrong, 300 is right... download Bitcoin, RPCMiner and set up an account at mining.bitcoin.cz. Everything went pretty well, made an account and managed to set up RPCMiner straight away and start mining. Uhm, let me guess, you downloaded a CPU miner instead of a GPU miner? What about using GUIMiner of CGMiner? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3878.0or https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.0 (CGMiner is good but no gui  ) Also if you mine on a pool you don't need to run the Bitcoin client. Sure, it's not a bad idea, having it run is having one more node in the network having the whole blockchain and relaying blocks and transactions, but isn't required for pool mining. It's for P2Pool, if you are interested in trying it. |

Posting in an epic thread.
Suddenly GPU with a lot of RAM are epic useful.
And you still haven't see my USB key mining...

Are there any others?
Namecoin?
Please don't mix solidcoin (aka scamcoin) with other currencies Scamcoin has NOTHING to do with others, it's just scamcoin. |

Idiot court would probably rule that they have to give the file back.
Proving theft is tricky. From a legal perspective, I am not sure if there was a theft. A bunch of numbers were copied, and Linode still has the original numbers on their hard drives. They arrest lots of people for this things, they call it "piracy" |

Where do you guys get 6970 gets 683 GFLOPS.
6970 has 2.7 TFLOPS of floating point computational power and a 7970 is ~3.8 TFLOPS.
It's the double precision compute power 6970 2.7 TFLOPs Single Precision compute power 683 GFLOPs Double Precision compute power |

Is Bitcoin really the only way to make using your computer's power? Folding @ Home is sorta like it, but it's a charity thing with no profit(I guess you can count pride though). Has anyone seen something like Bitcoin mining before?
Distributed computing is not limited to Folding. There are dozens of other interesting projects out there http://boinc.berkeley.edu/But well, except bitcoin and distributed computing i think that no, there isn't anything you can crunch on your computer. |

Implying it even can mine...

WTF are you talking about, just go to the link at the bottom of my post.
They're already selling it to the public.
Nice, go buy one and crack bitcoin. What? With that computer it's still happily impossible? |

Alright, how would i go about dropping the mem speeds, in control center i am only able to increase the speed from 1050-1250 (no option to lower it)
Also what temp should i be shooting for, i know the lower the better but what kind of realistic temps should i be trying to get, 75, 70, 65?
Use MSI Afterburner 75 is fine |

Anyone know anything about Solid Coin? I wanted to setup a miner and see what kind of results I'd get. Figured it would be somewhat close to Litecoins on my CPU (about 9 - 12/day). It's been mining now for about 16 hours and I'm up to 0.06075499. So yea, a days worth of mining is going to get me 0.07 cents worth of SC? I'm wondering if I didn't configure something right before I just give up this one.
It's fine. Didn't you read about recent changes in scamcoin? The cause of the problem is called "SolidCoin" Switch to a coin that is not called scamcoin and you will solve that problem. |

Actually the only crime here was the unauthorised access and modification of VPS accounts. BTC are not legal tender/currency and Linode already covers up to whatever the hosting costs they are paying... which is very little because Linode is cheap.
I don't have any reference at the moment, but I read somewhere that if anything worth a certain amount of money is stolen, it's considered a serious matter by law enforcement, even though it's not directly classified as anything. But I'm no lawyer, so don't take my words for granted. I would think this to be the situation also. If i have piece of equipment that is worth x amount of money and its stolen its still theft. no matter hwo you look at it.. reminds of the would you steel a car piirate campaign. if thats illegal, this CERTAINLY must be. +1 |

Considering that we are using up alot of electricity and money up by investing in this e-currency, where does our processing power go?
Can't we use our processing power more efficiently, both by mining coins and helping in university research. I'm sure people should be able to buy up processing power.
Find a way and we will do. What? You can't find how to do it? Oh...  |
