I love this. Krugman obliterates this dunce.
So wait. You agree with Krugman's theories of economics, but support bitcoin? Seems to me it should be one or the other. |

I like how you decentralize the exchange by centralizing it on GLBSE.
Yeah. I don't get how this is decentralized. |
|
|
|
nah. haha
So is this you admitting you don't actually have a sick cat? And what was the monkey and gerbil ruse? I must have missed that. |

Grab a MoneyPak, get on to Tor, set up Tor SASL, goto #bitcoin-otc on freenode IRC, make your offer. Wait until someone responds, provide MP to a trusted trader there, receive BTC. This will probably be the cheapest and safest routes for you to maintain anonymity.
I thought that you couldn't connect to freenode via tor until you register with nickserv. Which means you need to connect without tor once to register. So the admins could tell your IP from your registration if they wanted to, right? |

I think a re-loadable card would be really nice for Bitcoin until we can actually use smart phones/cards for payments.
I do dislike monthly fees though.

I'm having major trouble signing up more than one person at a time for your wallet in China. When installing your wallet, people are constantly getting an error that says that a wallet was recently created from the same IP address, so it blocks them from creating a new wallet. Please fix this ASAP! Tomorrow night I am having a substantial business meeting with a large number of Business owners in the Shenzhen area. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=79803.0I want everything to go smoothly with your wallet! Create the wallet with wifi off maybe? Then the IP will be for the phones 3G connection. Is the error to stop account spam or to keep people from accidentally creating multiple accounts? If it is the latter, maybe this error could be changed to a warning instead. |

I guess this is the straw that broke the camel's back. Upgrading this server to CentOS 6.2. Thanks for the knudge.
I think Centos 6 has python 2.6, so you still don't have 2.7. At least it is better than 2.4 though. |

Well that gives me more hope for Ron Paul. I just saw him speak on UC Davis campus. Of course, since I already know how Ron Paul stands on his issues, I didn't learn anything new. Not like being at a Romney rally  I wish the US used Single Transferable Vote. Then people wouldn't feel like they are "throwing away" their vote by voting third party. |

Still a large burden though.
That's the whole point. You want the government to have this burden so it takes millennia for it to corrupt itself - it would be possible at all with this. The Framers knew very well of the problem associated with government power and trying to limiting it. But I think they underestimated it still. X year sun-setting for all levels of government is the ultimate hog tie. Edit: And it would be that much more costly for corporations to influence the legislature too because they'd have to keep "funding" the shit heads at every cycle to keep something going. While I kind of like the idea of all laws sunsetting. The problem I see is that it doesn't just make it more expensive for corporations; It makes it more expensive for EVERYONE. This means that the corporations will still be the ones most-able to throw money at lobbyists. |

I am running p2pool with great results on debian, however for best efficiency I am planning on running on a server I have on the internet that runs centos, the debian server I use for mining and it is best not to have the miners and the mining pool on the same server.
I get this strange error when running on centos 5.5
forrestv-p2pool-04283e9]# ./run_p2pool.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/sergio/forrestv-p2pool-04283e9/p2pool/__init__.py", line 36, in _get_version
if len(dir_name) >= 7 and (len(dir_name) == 7 or dir_name[-8] not in chars) and all(c in chars for c in dir_name[-7:]):
NameError: global name 'all' is not defined
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/home/sergio/forrestv-p2pool-04283e9/p2pool/main.py", line 27
from . import p2p, networks, web
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Any ideas on how to fix that error, is there a patch available to run p2pool in centos 5.5 ?
On centos python is version 2.4 on debian it is 2.6.6
Python 2.4 is not compatible with p2pool. Sorry  Getting 2.7 running on Centos is a PITA. I just had to mess around with it for work and we ended up using ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I don't know why considering 2.7 is almost 2 years old. 2.6 is in EPEL though. |

My suggestion is to switch to cgminer (bamt comes with it, just edit your bamt.conf file to enable it, and enable it on the gpus). BAMT with the default phoenix would not work for me (as one of my GPUs is an AMD APU unit). GPUMON will not show that you are mining, but press the 0 key and the screen session for cgminer will be shown.
BAMT will show cgminer stats if you configure it properly. "api-allow" : "W:127.0.0.1"
settings:
cgminer: 1
cgminer_opts: --config /etc/bamt/cgminer.conf

So you got 2 months of grooveshark for your suggestion?! Awesome!

Maybe consider lower diff a bit and less longpool messages? I haven't share over last 24hrs...
I have only ~170MH/s and most of my worker get works are break by longpool reset.
In description it is about 10s between longpolls but in most cases i get longpool restart every 5s...
Also after upgrading to 11.1 i`m getting ALOT of dead on arrival (about 30% vs under 5% on 10.3), same worker and config.
Since you have a small rig, it might be worth mining at p2pmining.com. He runs a public, merged mining p2pool node with diff 1 shares designed for smaller miners. In fact I`m getting more directly form p2pool that p2poolmining  more what? |

These are the kinds of people that give reasonable anarchists a bad name.
By "These are the kind of people" do you mean the FBI? |

Also: is there any way to switch to a new destination address without restarting p2pool?
Only thing you could do is put the new address as the username on your miner. That works. If you want to ensure virtually no downtime, you can start a second instance of p2pool with the new parameters. It will complain about not being able to bind ports, but this is okay. Once it loads the share chain, quit the first instance and the new instance will bind to the ports as soon as it can. |

Its true. You are absolutely right. Americans go on about handguns being essential to freedom when a handgun is as useless as a crossbow if you are faced by a an enemy who has a tank or a drone.
Any rational interpretation of the second amendment would start with allowing anti-aircraft and anti-tank weapons.
AFIAK, Regulation is allowed because the supreme court has ruled that a right must have some level of reasonableness applied to it. Example, you have freedom of speech, but you can't yell "fire" in a crowded building. THEY (not me) have decided that nukes, cannons, full autos, etc are reasonable exceptions. The Supreme Court has, by bringing a level of "reasonableness," (your word, definitely not mine) completely destroyed the original intent of the second amendment. People seem to forget that our founding fathers had just finished fighting off their government with what were state-of-the-art weapons. The first shot was fired because the Brits were trying to seize and/or destroy the colonist's military supplies. I believe the founders wrote the second amendment to ensure that the People maintained the ability to overthrow their government by force. Maybe we live in a different world now where this is no longer possible, but then we should either amend the Constitution to reflect this or completely tear it up because it does little to protect our rights anymore. |

sudo aptitude install screen git python-rrdtool python-pygame python-scipy python-twisted python-twisted-web python-imaging
This is more than necessary now that p2pool uses javascript for the graphs. I think the following will be fine. sudo aptitude install screen git python-scipy python-twisted python-twisted-web
I don't even think I installed scipy or twisted-web though. |

He is not going to pay us what he owes us? I highly doubt ARS would do that...
This is a problem with SMPPS, not the pool op being a crook. Yes and no. It's a problem with him apparently giving people the impression that it was owed in the first place. To be fair, your page about SMPPS doesn't say that "extra credit" isn't guaranteed and may be lost if the pool stops mining with a negative buffer, either. http://eligius.st/wiki/index.php/Shared_Maximum_PPSMiners accumulate Pay-Per-Share as usual. When a block is found, the pool counts the total unpaid PPS credits. If there are sufficient pool funds earned to pay them all in full PPS, that happens. If not, the miners are paid proportional to available funds. Remaining pool funds accumulate toward future payouts. The difference between a miner's actual (SMPPS) earnings and PPS earnings is retained as "extra credit", and considered in future blocks. Maybe add something after "Remaining pool funds accumulate toward future payouts." to make this very clear. |
