541  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Slush Pool (api.bitcoin.cz) hacked again? on: July 18, 2011, 01:14:30 PM
In my pool I use OpenID and let someone else worry about that part of the security. You can log in with a Google account.

Of course I have to store worker passwords. They are salted and heavily hashed in the database. Not sure if worker passwords are really worth protecting, but it just feels safer to be paranoid.

Kind of pointless when they are sent over the network plain text, but w/e.

Everything is fine from my end.

Are you sure that password wasn't one used on mtgox?

Definitely sounds like you chose a poor password.

I also replied to your previous thread in regards to embedding images.
Using a service such as www.imgur.com and providing hard links is a much better approach in my opinion.

I'm not here to bitch and moan, but you really need to work on your posting quality. Grab a spell checking addon for firefox or something and proof read your posts.
I'm very interested in the trixx series cards and any information you have on them, but if the post looks to be churned out of someone poopy hole I will just stop reading, as will many others I'm sure.

Constructive criticism.  Kiss

Drivers?

Let me know what you have, thanks.

I have an idea , why don't you solve a block with your hardware.

 Should take about 20 minutes with your 5 GH. You need to tell us the bitcoin address first. Then solve a block in a reasonable time  consistent with 5 GH and post the transaction hash of the solve so we can verify the address is the one you said it is.

That's real. simple. Solve a damn block or STFU.
The average time to generate a block at 5000000 Khps, given current difficulty of 1564057.4508376 , is 2 weeks, 1 day, 13 hours, 11 minutes, and 55 seconds  Roll Eyes

I thought triple mining was publicly named and shamed as being a scam?
549  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Crashes My Wireless on: July 18, 2011, 01:24:48 AM
I get the same and I'm pretty sure its down to the huge amount of connections bitcoin uses.

To fix it simple run bitcoin with -maxconnections=15 or how ever many connections you feel your wireless can handle.

With the last command before reboot, I'm getting:
Code:
user@box:~$ sudo aticonfig --initial -f --adapter=allUnable to open /etc/ati/control, please reinstall the driver.
aticonfig: No supported adapters detected

If I use Ubuntu's Additional Drivers utility, it will see the adapter but the platform needs to be specified and attempting to mine sends it into a frenzy of errors.

Any suggestions?

Instead of sudo apt-get install fglrx

try this:

Quote
cd ~
sudo aptitude install dkms
wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run
sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/natty
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo aticonfig -f --initial --adapter=all
sudo reboot
Hey thanks for this, I was wondering if you knew of a way to upgrade the drivers at a later date? I am running 11.5 and would like to do some testing with other versions but my linux skills are poor.

just ship one damn card that he paid for with btc. else you're gonna get marked as a scammer.

I gave him my terms and threats just as he did to me constantly, I'm not going to be pushed around by him any longer and let him damage my rep.

Its already clear he was the one trying to scam me for two cards.

IF HE SENT you money already, either REFUND HIM, or send him the damn card.

or else you're TAKING his money and scamming him.

I gave him my terms and threats just as he did to me constantly, I'm not going to be pushed around by him any longer and let him damage my rep.

He put this up when I've yet to "scam" him, so once its taken down he will get his card. Otherwise it will sit and collect dust. Its his problem, not mine.
As much of an obnoxious ass haploid23 has portrayed himself to be so far, you (leon) are seriously not doing yourself any favours in this situation with bullish comments like the above which will only consequently result in haploid23's claim of you being a scammer true.

no idea. but i've done multiple sales already.

my ingame is xxx(i fail on capslock)
It is completely against CCP rules to RMT and they will very likely ban your character you linked and all associated accounts and remove ISK/assets from previous customers.

You need to remove that character name and dont talk about RMT in game.  Undecided

I did eve RMT for 5 years.

556  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mt.Gox scares people on: July 17, 2011, 07:18:37 AM
The way that Mt. Gox is set up makes people buy and sell faster. If you keep a constant eye on it, wanting to see when you should sell or buy, you will.

They have made it so that they get much more traffic than needed. They have digits down to the fifth decimal point. When prices change, it looks like a big change (like 13.52470 to 13.34410). I'm not talking about the big transactions, but most of the ones I see are less than a dozen. And when you are trading a small amount of coins, it's hardly any difference in price. But the numbers look bigger because of so many decimal places and people panic or get really excited and buy or sell right away.

Is this true? I know that's what happens in my mind as I watch Mt.Gox Live
I set my bitcoins to sell at the price I choose, set and forget.
I don't think it scares people, because anyone like me who doesn't want the stress of slaving over market charts 24/7 will just set the price they want and walk away.

Do what?  Run X?  Yeah.  You can run it locally or forward your X session... I'm not sure what would happen if you were running a purely forwarded X Session, though I don't see any reason it wouldn't work unless it doesn't activate the fglrx module. Hmm...


I've only been using the X11 forwarding option in putty for months and haven't had an issue yet.
559  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How accurate are bitcoin calculators? on: July 16, 2011, 11:57:09 PM
What you are experiencing is pretty normal variance, some days will be higher, some lower.

Really?  Wow...33% is a pretty big dropoff -- when calculating if it'd be worth it to dive into mining I was not expecting the estimate to be that off.

Edit: Over the last 2.5 hours (10% of one day) I've accumulated 0.0148 BTC -- 0.15 BTC/day on average now...and no instances of disconnects from server in that timeframe
2.5 hours is simply too short of a time frame to make assumptions on imho.
Remember your pool could get lucky or unlucky causing a huge amount of variance for that day too.
560  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How accurate are bitcoin calculators? on: July 16, 2011, 11:29:09 PM
.....Okay and that means...what?

That because my rejected count is 2 to 3 percent...it makes sense that I'm averaging 33% less than the estimate?  Hmm...

I'm just wondering what other people are experiencing
Sorry, I was being lazy.
What I was trying to say is the calculators are estimates for 100% uptime, perfect conditions, no variance etc.
What you are experiencing is pretty normal variance, some days will be higher, some lower.
