looks slick but I can't get it to run on ubunut
any ideas why:
getting this error on ubuntu
$ ./start.sh
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "../goxgui/application.py", line 68, in <module>
app = Application(sys.argv)
File "../goxgui/application.py", line 40, in __init__
self.logfile = open('log.txt', 'w')
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'log.txt'
then when I run
$ sudo ./start.sh
application.py: cannot connect to X server
thx.
We need more information. Where is the goxgui folder at? Is your ubuntu setup up headless (without KDE, GNOME, XDE, etc.)? What are the permissions for the goxgui folder (eg. 777, 551, etc)? |

Any credit card system would have to be implemented with a trust system as well. Needing more than x amount of successful credit card purchases without charge back, or be subject to a "holding period" where you can't withdraw your coins for 14+ days. A system could easily be implemented, but he holding periods would not be very popular, I think.

I have hit a snag, and need the advice of the community.
Assume, for a moment, that you just opened an account with a new exchange. If this exchange could fund your account with USD from whatever method/site you prefer, what would it be? Are you a fan of Dwolla? Perhaps you would like a way to buy BTC with your credit card? Would you like support for 3rd party exchanges, like VirWox?
Any and all opinions on this matter are important. Thank you for your time.

what's the point of a currency where they start with 100% of the coins?
It's... complicated. |

Being new to the Ripple Scene, I'm rather confused as how to trade on there. I've tried goggling, and searching the forums, but perhaps I'm missing something. When viewing the trade menu, I get "  ", requesting that I change issuers. Is there a list of issuers out there, or a universal one? |

So is there anybody who posted his Ripple address under
Other > Alternate cryptocurrencies (Moderator: SaltySpitoon) > Ripple Giveaway!
and hasn't yet received his/her complimentary ripples?
Thx
The script runs once a day I believe. So I won't know until tomorrow-ish. |

I like people getting off the sofa and starting projects. No progress without many fails.
I'm not against starting projects, I'm just concerned about the amount of clutter in Project Development. |

Yeah a few sub-forums would be nice in there. Just like how the alternate currencies could do well in splitting up into Litecoin, Ripple, etc.
Agreed. The community has just grown so much recently, I think it's time to rethink the categorization of some forums. Perhaps what we truly need are more bitcoin-oriented communities. Places to help take some of the load off bitcointalk.org. |

People crave approval  I'm guilty of this myself. Sometimes I'll go to certain websites and post tidbits of stories I'm writing, to see if people like them or not before continuing. I can see the desire the test the market for your project before investing a lot of time in it, however maybe there should be another place for those project "ideas". |

The most common problem with GPU mining, is the chance of fragmenting your videos cards RAM. This will cause your card to lock up every time the bit that got fragmented is called. There is a chance it will fragment every time load the ram; for the usual gamer, this isn't a problem, but for GPU miners, who keep their cards under severe loads all the time, the chance is higher.
Your cards lifespan will shorten the longer you mine, but there is no way to predict when/if/where it will happen. It's just a risk that comes with mining.

Am I the only one that thinks there are too many "Soon there will be" or "Pre-Announcent" projects in the project development forum?
I wonder why they don't that the self-control to wait until they have a working project?
Thought? Ideas? Opinions?

Do you have some inside information or are you just speculating (pun intended) that this is likely?
Just their reply to joining their email list: "Hi! You will be the first to hear exciting developments about Ripple, including news, XRP giveaways, and more. Want to join?" My guess is the next giveaway will happen from that list. |

What happens next? When the difficulty is too high do you give up, try and compete or will there be something else on the horizon?
There will still be a need for miners, however, the majority of their pay provided by the miners fees, and not block rewards. |

Does anybody know if the kind people at Ripple are intending to lengthen the list of qualifying members of this forum past the 19th of February for their CrAzY giveaway?  I doubt it, but it should be coming out of beta soon, and more giveaways are likely to happen at that point. |

Hello everyone, nice to be back on the forums! I used to be an aggressive BTC miner, and a daily forums user. I had a problem at one point where I was in a public area with my laptop, and somehow I lost everything. It was kind of disappointing, so I closed all my accounts and quit for a while. About five months later here I am; built a new computer and I'm back at it. Might as well jump right into my question, When I start mining (I use GUIminer just because it's less of a headache) I get about 490-510Mh/s, which isn't too bad compared to my last mining rig. (I only got about 20 ) But I do remember there were some flags I added that significantly increased my hash/s rate, but I forgot what they all were and what they meant. If someone could refresh my memory that would be greatly appreciated. Also, I want to know what the long term effects of mining on my *brand new* graphics card is going to do...how much can it handle/will it wear and tear/will it void my warranty if something happens to it, etc. Thanks in advance. You can find flags others have had luck with here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison |

bump!
Adding a username so your stats can be verified would likely be a good step to selling your account. However, your on a board about economic, math, and hardware. Not sure how many people are/will be truly interested in it. |

After what happened with mtgox, whether it was a ddos or a overload of orders, I believe bitcoin has shown its weakest link. By having most other exchanges working with the mtgox API it was possible that a system error within 'just' an exchanger caused so much panic that it might take a few weeks before bitcoin is back on its old level. How can we prevent that the value of the coin gets hurt when just an exchanger or whatsoever gets taken down or has technical issues? IMO we should order exchangers to set their own exchange rates and thus creating a fair and decentralized market. Just my 2 cents  What we need are more exchanges, operated by different people, hosted on different servers. I'm thinking what we really need, is an opensource bitcoin traders framework. |

This fella went straight to the Ripple giveaway, so he's got his 50k ripples.
I will have to do that, a link? I'll login to an older account. Thanks! |

Read his Wikipedia article. It probably was written by himself, or by PR specialists he hired.
If he were Satoshi Nakamoto then Satoshi Nakamoto will eventually be known as him, at least when Bitcoin succeeds. i.e. I think he's the kind of person that would want to claim the glory to be someone who invented Bitcoin.
From the reviews of his book and his profile, he probably knows a lot about money, a number of things about computers, but his treatment of quantum physics sounds very unprofessional - worse than a Sci-fi writer, and he brought up those names just to sound cool.
lolwut There is no wikipedia page for Satoshi... I think he means the bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_Nakamoto |
