You certainly would like it to be so. And it's not about scrypt/gpu mining(I wonder how you even arrived at this), I am not a miner anymore. And you and me, we go way back, early days of cgminer when I even paid you to implement something, which you failed to do so, what you wrote wasn't even correct. But that aside, the code *is* overbloated. It's purpose is to hash(well, with asics, it doesn't even need to do this except to verify), yet I see so much redundant code.

54 million a year, that would end humanity in about 100 years or so.

Cgminer is a fork of cpuminer, originally developed by Jeff Garzik, cgminer was forked and subsequently developed by Con Kolivas, and later user Kano, although their attitudes need to be fixed.

Right now though, cgminer is overbloated. Thousand of lines of code just to mine. Needs to be rewritten from scratch. So far it has served to prove that knowing the linux kernel inside-out does not mean one can code well.

Same. Another paid bear.

Probably. But Microsoft said W10 will be the last major release, they will now update Windows with incremental updates, 10.1,2,3 and so forth for probably quite a few years.

I wouldn't trust a paid permabear especially one with a recent account as yours. Perhaps its time for you to mature for a few years.

Now that you showed how you see it, yes I can see it too. But without that extra cue, it was not obvious at all.

Those images don't look even remotely the same to me.

The reason is that Windows 9 was too similar to Windows 95, i.e Windows 95 and this would break a lot of code out there, so they switched to Windows 10.

I have not looked at the last few pages, but 700 btc is not exactly a small amount, I am having a hard time believing OP.

For which this user just went on my ignore list for being an alt.

If such a person comes forward, though unlikely at this point, he would need to sign a message with his keys. This is what is so good about Bitcoin, and why no fake Satoshi has come forward, because he doesn't own the private keys to Satoshi's stash(although a close friend of his could potentially....)

Did you learn EW from another member here who was offering his services?

Strange, google shows this when you google that

Good advice on thread title.

You have to have some to buy some. I don't have any income, I can't even afford to buy 0.05 let alone anything like 6-20 btc.

Thats the thing, I didn't really invest. Everything I had started off with mining, unlike other people who already had $10k or $1k to buy btc then, I had $0. Essentially, I profited even if a little, without any investment. Even the electricity I expended in obtaining bitcoins was fully paid.

0.30 btc is about that much yeah, 10% of my holdings. I've been here since late Apr 2011, but unlike a lot of people I failed to amass large amounts of bitcoins, even though back then I had upwards of 100, a year later I had ten times as much litecoins, past tense yes.

Anyone feel like sharing their "bankroll" when playing on the exchanges?

Mine is...well it's not really anything but about 0.30 btc total. I don't think I will be earning any serious amount of money with this, but this is the amount I am willing to risk, or rather, that I can afford to lose.

I made a dollar yesterday, that must count, right.....right?
