Jered, I know you've been pretty silent on this topic for a while, but can you also get my BTC and $ back to me? I had approximately $1000 combined in USD and BTC at TradeHill last year. When the Bitcoin market crashed, I was content to let my balances sit there, thinking the market would eventually come back. (No point in selling the bitcoins at the low price, taking the loss.) With that and with moving twice, I pretty much ignored Bitcoin for about a year. Come August and I notice the price is back up, so I try to log into TradeHill-- only to find it's been gone for quite some time. Shocked!  This is probably a really old story to most people on the forum, but it was news to me. (I had left balances at Mt. Gox too-- those are safely in my possession now. I won't make the same mistake twice.) At any rate, now I can't seem to get in touch with you about these balances I had at TradeHill. I've tried nearly every channel that has been discussed here on the forums, even your phone number that you yourself posted a few months back. Of course, I've also heard that you've been swamped with fake claims. It is understandable if you should take some time to respond, but I would like to get this resolved before too long, especially given the time that has already passed. I have detailed records of transactions (dates, amounts, etc.) that I can show you (Jered) to validate my claim. I won't post them here, obviously, as anyone could then use them to impersonate me and take the claim. To anyone else-- if you know Jered personally, or know of a way to get through to him, please help. I would appreciate it greatly. I'd be happy to give you 20% of whatever I can get back from Jered if you successfully put me in touch with him. Thanks! Dude said to e-mail him, and gave you an e-mail address. Instead of pleading for your $/BTC in a public forum, use the medium of communication given to you? kthx |

Porn. Oh wait, I have a 1.5TB drive full of that. Still, more porn.

You will get the most hashrate/watt running dual GPU cards. How much do you have to spend on cards? What CPU will you use? Have you considered running BAMT on a thumb drive/small SSD instead of using a mechanical hard drive that'll draw 50watts? If you're building a true mining rig (ie: single core CPU, 1 stick of RAM, SSD/flash storage) then you're perfectly safe running any of the following. Otherwise you're cutting it really, really close and may overdraw by just a little bit using the following options.
7970 x 4 (2500 MH/s @ ~ 860watts, ~$1600)
or
6990 x 3 (2200 MH/s @ ~ 700watts, ~$hard to find, cost varies)
or
5970 x 3 (roughly the same as 6990)
or
5850 x 4 (1500 MH/s @ ~ 800watts, ~$550-600)

I'll sell blood for the fuck of it. I'm healthy, and a universal type O. Lemme know. You might get pretty fucked up after transfusion though, I likes dem trees.

This is an amazing collection, props. I played with a group in the early 90's, had a level 8 warrior with -8 AC.. needed some straight gangster THAC0 to hit him. Brings back some memories. Bump.

The title of this thread sucks. You can't call something free and then turn around and charge for it. And don't say it was free for you either, you had to buy a Big Mac or whatever to get it. False advertising is bad.

Any chicks in DC/Virginia/Maryland/West Virginia wanna make some BTC?  |
|

|

I setup a new client(completely new wallet.dat / new private keys) in a virtual machine, transferred roughly 90% of my coins to it, encrypted it, then put that new wallet.dat on 4 different thumb drives.. one in my car, one at a friend's house, etc. Cold storage is the only way to go; it's becoming increasingly easy to plant a keylogger on somebody's system, and thereby obtain the passphrase used to encrypt a hot wallet. I will never keep more than 100 BTC in a hot wallet, and even that's pushing it.

So far this election has been more about making the other guy look worse than you, instead of making yourself look good. Good tactics from the perspective of a dictatorship. "You should vote for me because if you vote for this guy, you're fucked, therefore I'm the obvious solution, simply because I'm not that other guy."
This is a clear sign that things are broken.

If someone stuck a gun to my head and made me chose between voting for Obama or voting for Romney, I'd eat a fucking bullet.
+1 This reminds me of a quote, the source of which I can't quite remember. "Point a gun at a man's head, threaten his life, make him believe the threat, and only then will you truly meet the man. Only then will the truth come out." Take it from William Shakespeare, "The whole world is a stage." I'm personally in favor of invoking some necromancy and bringing Thomas Jefferson back from the grave. He knew what was up. "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free". |

Who will win? How will it affect the value of the currency? how will it affect the freedom of the internet? Remember Obama almost let SOPA happen
yes, obama liked sopa, pipa, and cispa. he also continued the ndaa and patriot act. and if you look at the people in congress you will notice that MOST of the ones who supported sopa and the others are the democrats. Could you provide a source that confirms that Obama liked sopa, pipa, and cispa? I read that he issued a veto threat, but not much else, so I assumed he was against them. Obama is down with surveillance. He likes the idea of Big Brother watching everything you do, at least in public. Go walk around any major US city and count how many cameras there are, watching you. We even have cameras that watch cameras, in case the first camera is vandalized. Talk about a waste of federal budget? |

Obama is in the pocket of Goldman Sachs.
Romney is in the pocket of JP Morgan & Chase.
edit: +1 Mufa23. Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan & Chase are in the pockets of the Bildeburg group, and to a lesser extent, the Rothchild family. The global monetary elitist financiers control the world and the US, not politicians. Politicians are just puppets on strings.
South Park had it right when they had an election for president of the 4th grade class.
Turd Sandwich VS Giant Douche
As a citizen, you lose either way.
Remember kids! Harvard graduates usually go to work for financial institutions. End result? The best and brightest minds in the country are working hard to screw you and yours.
Going to the polls and voting means that you support the political system. Asking who you'd vote for is like asking "Would you like to get mouthraped or assraped?". It's a rigged game, and there's only one way to beat a rigged game; don't play it. I would love nothing more than to see NOBODY show up at the voting booths. Our monetary system is broken beyond any hopes of being repaired. Show America you're sick of politics and empty promises, don't vote. Democracy in the US is straight twisted. Can't even really call it democracy anymore.
Politicians are more interested in repaying the favors that put them in office to begin with, than they are in fixing real problems.

what watt psu should i have for 4 cards or for 2 cards?
depends on the other hardware being used. a pure mining rig will have a single core CPU drawing 45w or less, a single stick of RAM, and no hard drive(BAMT on a thumb drive). You want about 75w for all this. If you use a quad-core 95w+ cpu, multiple sticks of RAM, and a mechanical spinup hard drive, you want more like 200w for all that, to be safe. Add another 200w per 5850 being used, 235 or so watts to be safe. for 4 cards in a pure mining rig, use a 950w+ supply. for 4 cards in a normal rig, use a 1200w+ supply. for 2 cards in a pure mining rig, use a 550w+ supply. for 2 cards in a normal rig, use a 700w+ supply. 5850 requires at a bare minimum 18amps on the 12volt rail to run stable, but you want more than that. try to use a power supply, in all of the above setups, that uses a single 12 volt rail. I'd suggest using Corsair, seem to be the best stability/power/$ ratio that i've used. g'luck. |

1) The idea of a currency that isn't controlled or regulated by any central service, and therefore isn't discriminatory towards any single user or group of users.
2) The idea that wealth can be transferred thousands of miles in a mere matter of seconds, with practically no fees attached in comparison to comparable services.
3) The idea that I could generate wealth worth believing in, using compute time that would otherwise be idle.
"The" Bitcoin Foundation makes me worried about 1).
ASICs make me worried about 3).

People need to remember that Bitcoin is still in an experimental beta phase. If Bitcoin survives to version 1.0, make your educated guesses then.

I had this generally same idea but it would apply to strippers. Each stripper would have a QR code on a sticker or something and you could scan and get lap dances. I know of a phone sex and cam site already taking bitcoin. Any site that takes 50% of your tips is a ripoff. (and btw camming and phone sex are not prostitution)
and to whoever wrote that comment on backwards countries and prostitution - remember it was the progressive era that started the anti prostitution laws.
By legal definition, phone sex and camming aren't prostitution, but, like prostitution, they are synonymous with degeneracy. |
