At least one user has received it.

Mine was at 2011-06-22 06:32 GMT.

donate to givewell if you really don't want some money.

Sending money into the void is giving it to all other bitcoin owners.

There are people with more important needs.

Which makes the idea of punishing someone for returning taxpayer money directly to taxpayers, rather than just "burning", it even less sensible.

I don't follow "punishing someone".

Got the message!!!

You're such a lucky one...

If someone creates a post about a new pyramid scheme they have created, and it is removed, wouldn't that be considered censorship?  Or if someone wants to report that their 25k BTC went missing, but their thread was deleted, would that REALLY look good for bitcoin?

Original postings wouldn't need to be removed/censored, a simple edition by the moderators would be enough. There's a recent thread that features some red bold letters added by a mod, warning users that the post could be a scam.

We already have a "Report to moderator" link that appears in each and every post. Let's use it.

@TheManOfTown - I may be interested in participating in such a forum.
I disagree about the "no referral link" rule though.

Your disagreement is noted, and I do understand why. Smiley But that's the way it is, people will have different opinions. Personally I do not like referral-programs, I never did. I am more of the opinion that if you create a business online or elsewhere, focus mainly on creating a great service, and customers will come, and they will tell others about your service. I understand other people will have a different view on this, and esp. those who are personally benefiting from the referral links. I am sure you and me would not agree on that particular issue, so let's just agree that we disagree. Smiley

Just for the record, not everyone benefits from referral links. I for one know of a site, www.eurobilltracker.com, that doesn't pay or reward in any way for using referral links. All users gain by referring people is a higher position in a ranking, as in "Wow this guy brought 32 other people here!".

That said, I've never used my referral link to that site Smiley.

Quick question: could a simple CRC32 (plus some additional mangling) of the login be used as a salt? That way, it wouldn't have to be stored, it just would be computed everytime it was needed.

(Only useful on closed-source projects, tho).

En España también lo es. A veces depende del contexto, pero este caso (un mensaje que empieza diciendo "Mira cabrón") no deja mucho lugar a dudas.
5411  Local / Español (Spanish) / Re: Cómo traducir "to mine" al español en el contexto BTC: acuñar on: June 23, 2011, 01:10:35 PM
Buena suerte usando "extraer", pues.

No me hace falta suerte bobo.  Estoy usando la palabra correcta. 

Sí, mi General.

5413  Local / Español (Spanish) / Re: mtgox.com ha sido hackeado on: June 23, 2011, 02:35:48 AM
pues, buena suerte al listillo que intenté asociar ese esquema a uno de los tantos correos electrónicos dumpeados de mtgox :-P

LOL. No iba a decir nada, pero si insistes...

Tu esquema ##a#a#aa##***## es equivalente a ########aaaa***. 10 dígitos, 4 letras y 3 especiales hacen:

10^8 * 52^4 * 31^3 = 21782035225600000000 ≈ 2.1782e+19.

(He cogido 31 especiales, que son los caracteres entre 32 y 127 que no son letras ni números).

Todo el espacio posible es:

(10+52+31)^(8+4+3) = 336700862051614156853075413557 ≈ 3.367e+29.

Por tanto, con el simple hecho de haber publicado eso, has hecho tu clave 10 órdenes de magnitud más fácil de romper.

Eso unido a que "shackra" aparece en el CSV...
5414  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 7 simple rules to mitigate most threats related to passwords on: June 23, 2011, 01:06:21 AM
As I read all these password posts and don't happen to read any advice remotely near to the system I use, I only get more and more astonished. I just can't believe no one does this. Well, let me share what I do—may not be the best of the world but it works for me.

All* of my passwords are derived from the corresponding login and a couple of rules. Example:

  • Take a reasonable string like vU4p!,a'fZx*
  • Change its first character into the last in the login
  • Change its fourth character into the second in the login
  • Change its seventh character into the length of the login (or its last digit if the length is greater than 9)
So, if the login is "an0therlr3", the password would be 3U4n!,0'fZx*.

It takes a little of practice, but it pays off. The initial string could be based on a real sentence (as already suggested on this thread) for easy remembering. You can have more than one of these rules, of course. It's important not to change the last characters in the initial string, since some sites have an absurd limit of eg. 8 characters, and the modifications wouldn't be taken into account.

This even allows you to have the passwords written in a text file, stored unencrypted in the computer. Example:

Code:
Site, Login, Ruleset
my windows account, joesmith, 3
bitcoin forum, an0therlr3, 2
facebook, foobar@example.com, 2

A given attacker would have to break (by brute force) at least two passwords built with the same ruleset to be able to easily break a third.



* Excluding the typical bank PIN and the likes, which are severely crippled.
5415  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: POLL: (live - update!) mtgox claim - worked for you? on: June 22, 2011, 10:23:41 PM
Mtgox says over 10% are processed now.

It doesn't say "processed" but "reclaimed".
5416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Camp BX Platform in Beta: Margin Trading, Short Selling, and Advanced Orders on: June 22, 2011, 09:33:14 PM
I don't like that greenish look. And opening up the sections in the FAQ is slow. Is/Will be there an API available? I'd rather code a quick Perl script to operate with it instead of clicking around the site.

9 anyone? =)
5418  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FIX ERROR: "The password for this account is invalid, or this acc.." on: June 22, 2011, 01:18:38 PM
As I said elsewhere, my 12-character password was accepted.

También pueden verse como direcciones en el caso de querer recibir pagos (ONGs, por ejemplo) o también para realizarlos, si te interesa que quede constancia de que el pago es tuyo.

Ok, me queda mas claro todo. Justo estabamos viendo la posibilidad de invertir en un par de rigs con un amigo para hacer unos 2ghz, pero teniendo en consideracion a la competencia de pools como que se queda chica la velocidad no? ...

No son "ghz" Wink.

Únete a un pool, esto del solo mining está muerto ya.
