The second offer - double your referral space You can double your existing referral space instantly for only 1.5 BTC For example: if you have 32 valid referrals, the amount of your Dropbox storage will be increased with 8 GB. If you choose my doubling offer, the storage will be permanently expanded to 18 GB. Note: the increased storage is PERMANENT.
How does that work? Is it some sort of special promo by dropbox?

Antitrust law is so absurd. Nobody is forced to use Windows, not the users nor the developers. Anyone who complains about Windows on the basis of "monopoly" is a sniveling whiny bitch imo Microsoft should do whatever the heck they want with their own software. And the same freedom that protects their right to do so is the same freedom which protects our right to do whatever we want with Bitcoin.

oh boy, not this again. Wasn't this debunked on reddit?

Not really a scam, more like a rip-off for people who can't do basic math.

servers don't need that kind of observation - properly configured these do neither. a 5k server room might go by months no one even visiting there! If fire happens, i will most likely be able to shut down all nodes remotely, so when the sprinklers go off the hardware would be spared, just need to dry and test everything. Just in case i can't be there when the fire is starting up. Seriously tho, computer hardware does not tend to catch up on fire spontaneously ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) and if this grows sufficiently, it's not that big of an investment relatively to setup electronics safe fire system (can't remember the name of the gas used). If you got 40k € (ie. 100x7970) operating, 4k-8k € on a small fire supression system is not that bad of an investment anymore (10-20%) compared to a small 10x7970 operation. You can shut off remotely, but can you respond fast enough so the equipment doesn't get wet while the power is still on? Keep in mind you need to cut off all power, because even if the rigs are "off", the power supply is still providing standby power to the motherboard. Or are you going to have it set up so all power is cut automatically in an event of a fire? It's not just reacting to fire, you need to be close so you can monitor the site 24/7. It's a datacenter with over 50k worth of electronics, so burglary/vandalism is definitely an issue. A warehouse with tons of ventilation, spewing out hot exhaust is sure going to attract some attention. Just because you live 30 minute away, doesn't mean you can deal with an emergency. Are you willing to leave work if a problem shows up? How about 3am in the morning, or right when you're eating dinner? Mining rigs are very risky investments, and bitcoin prices are very unstable, so it's all about getting the fastest ROI as possible. If it will take you 12 hours to respond to an event, your customers are not going to be happy. A much better idea would be to sell mining contracts.

but still, Siberians can get sub 8 cent AND have cold climate.
So? How many Siberians you know even being able to do this? Even tho that is the case, for example google setup one huge DC here ... France has high electricity costs, yet probably the biggest hosting company in Europe operates from France ... Netherlands has likely the highest electricity costs in Europe, yet is the Europes "Internet Hub" meaning best connectivity there, and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of large and small hosting companies, one of europes largest providers too is there. Just because Siberians can get that, does not mean it will happen. For example, they might have very flaky electricity, hard to get HW delivered, too big distances, if electricity goes down it might be down for how many weeks?? How about internet connectivity? Satellite? yeah.... electricity is still 50% less than yours. Mining doesn't require a fast connection, a dial-up line will probably work just fine. All you're doing is spreading FUD about your competitors.

On the upside we don't need AC, and even tho office has AC it's not calced in because it would have this in any case and i could put the FPGAs on another room to get the load off the AC.

This issue could be resolved somewhere in this thread but I sure as hell cant find it, I apologize if it's there:
I would like to setup gpumax and my rigs in a fashion where, they work at gpumax whenever public work is available and to work in P2pool when it is not. I know how to set them up in fashion where the rigs would try mining at gpumax at first and if it fails then swap to P2pool for X shares... after which try back at gpumax (rinse and repeat) I think (am not sure) that I however am not able to set up a worker at gpumax without specifying a "failover" pool. Is this possible ? If it isnt could you make it possible? (seems like a very small tweak). Is there something im not taking in to account ?
You can setup your own VPS with a p2pool node, and set that as your "private pool".

So what about distilled water to keep this discussion in the spirit of the post? I know that its not a long term solution, but what are the pros and cons.

Googling "bitcoin forum" + keyword usually gives me better results...... I worship my google God
the proper way is to add "site:bitcointalk.org" in the search query. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

is it me, or do the reflections on the spheres look inaccurate?
|
|
|
mainly because the search results are by post, not by topic.
|
|
|
I've put it here because it's a question about the p2pool software and not about the pool itself. But if it is the wrong place a mod can move it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You can move your own topics, you know ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

what's the difference between this and buying it yourself? does the ipad 3 have restricted availability or something?

My best guess, at this point, is that your wallet has a corrupt private key which was not properly detected in older versions. Could you check debug.log?
I copied 0.4.4 back, and now I'm getting a slightly different error. Does 0.4.2 still work? This looks like blkindex.dat got corrupted somehow. Nope, 0.4.2 doesn't work either now. Although i got it to work by deleting everything except for wallet.dat. 0.4.4 still doesn't work though.

I'm getting
Error loading wallet.dat: Wallet corrupted Even after restoring your backup? Can you join #bitcoin-dev to troubleshoot? No, i was using 0.4.2 before, and it worked fine. When i changed to 0.4.4, i got that error, and when i restored the old executable, it was working fine again. Seems like an incompatible wallet version to me.
