how can you be out of stock of something that doesn't exist / maybe is virtual lol

Do you have all your cash in your hands? Are digital goods all fake because you cant touch them. Do you stream netflix that must be fake. The argument of it doesnt exist because it is virtual or you dont have it is getting old.

Netflix doesn't run out of available accounts. its not quite the same.

maybe they ran out of hash power in their "data center" so they can't sell any more? that would be amazingly ethical for a asic related company. usually they just keep selling whether they have them or not lol

You're going too far saying ISIS was supported by the West. Only a very limited group of people in the West have shown a little support in the early days of that movement. There are also some young unskilled and unemployed muslims who support ISIS all over Europe, but those people don't belong much to the West, despite they're living there.

I don't know much about how ISIS is funded, but I'm sure most of the money comes from the Persian Gulf.
they had official government support when they were fighting assad.

I understand, its very useful app. I'm having a lot of usability problems.

a couple things off the top of my head.

can you make each query for data from the ants run in its own thread, or in newer versions if .net a worker process makes multithreading easy. This would stop the UI from being froze. Waiting for data to come back and or breaking the UI when a ant fails to respond.

also saving data in the registry could be much better if you serialized the data objects into json or XML and asaved on disk. You could transfer the config file to other machines and if you don't want people messing with it you can binaryserialize it.

overall the app I'd a great idea and I like using it. I'm typing this from my phone so excuse the typos and stuff

Thanks for the feedback.  I'm familiar with multithreading and the advantages it adds.  And the complexity it adds.  (I have been programming on the side for 20 years now..)

There shouldn't be too much of a UI being frozen problem for normal API calls.  If an Ant doesn't respond, it should timeout fairly quickly.  I set the timeout lower purposely for that reason.  Also, you shouldn't regularly have Ants not responding.  That's an exception case, I don't see too much reason to put too much effort into that.

The "scanning" piece is awful, and will make the UI virtually unusable until it's finished.  I've never revisited that code since the original design.  It could be much better.  But I figure it's a one time deal for most people, and you can always enter your Ant info manually if you need to.

I use the registry for a two reasons:

1 - it's easy to do
2 - it's easy to view/edit outside of the app

If you're familiar with the registry, it's easy to export it and import it to another machine.

That said, I never considered multithreading anything, or using anything other than the registry for storing the config.

Thanks again for the input.

M

opening a file in notepad is easier than using regedit and finding the right registry entries. A lot if the time when a ant fails to respond it hangs the UI, I can't remove it from the config screen.

also when the ant fails to respond it has an uncaught exception, I can hit continue and it'll keep running until the next uncaught exception.

you can add something to catch all exceptions at the application level, so you won't have any uncaught exceptions that crash the app.

570  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: getting enough power from a normal house electrical system! on: August 27, 2014, 10:06:07 PM
its been pretty hot here, in the 90s... ive had one ant hit 61c but I blew out the dust from all of them and they all got 3-4c cooler from just that.

highest I have now is 58c on that one ant that always is the hottest for whatever reason.

the PSUs really don't like the heat... ive had two PC psus go bad in the last couple days, i'm replacing them with server psus, they seem to take the abuse better and I get them for less the $20

I put a big load on it while running GPUs, max load for days straight. seemed to handle that fine.

it just won't stay on with ants only

probably be an ok PSU in a normal computer
573  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ultra x4 modular psu, wont stay on with ants on: August 27, 2014, 06:32:13 PM
tried putting a load on it with about 6 case fans, it still failed to stay on.
