@inaba: What size are the chips anyway? It can be measured really easily,
without pulling the heatsink off...

I don't think inaba was allowed to keep the board although he could measure them (take a pocket ruler) next time he is given access.

I like how BFL came in here when ppl were discussing paypal chargebacks, but didnt give us official info how WHAT exactly was the problem with the demonstration. They use Inaba as their official PR lol?


The guy who was saying he would do a chargeback apparently only came to the forum talk about it and didn't even bother to contact them, so...
I would say they are smarter than all the guys around here dicing on them. They are just letting you digg the hole.
It's also incredible how everyone in this thread "know" BFLs' claims are false, yet they don't do anything of their life with all the knowledge they have. Talking in forums is easier than doing something for real, ain't it? And you don't miss deadlines by just talking intead of doing.

5864  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why I am not concerned about the ethics of miner botnets. on: November 28, 2011, 09:06:11 AM
It's a simple PR issue. Those criminals selling fossils fuels has very good PR points with the western world and do regular photos ops with the western leaders. Botnet operators and bitcoin miners on the other hand...

The criminals selling fossil fuels also have a higher probability to be executed by their "friends" than botnet operators... Doesn't matter how good the PR and the photo ops were...

Interest rate of 10%. so: 17 BTC will need to be paid back. (I rounded it below)
5866  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has a lot of interest outside of the USA on: November 27, 2011, 05:50:47 PM
Why is the interest so high in Russia in particular? It looks like it has double the hits as any other country.

Not for the best reasons I suppose...

I don't think it is cracker and criminals. This would be too high of a result for such a small segment of the population.



That segment of the population is much higher in Russia than in other countries, so, I would dare to say it is.
In Russia even criminals are more tech minded, not like the US, where they just get a gun and mugg you on the street lol

Damn, there goes bitcoin price to the sky again... and it will eventually fall as people lose interest in it.

Just wait and see...

Email validation before reviews go live should also help.
Ofcourse emails are like IP's, a dime a dozen, but it's one more loop.

Goat, just 2 things I want to say to you:

1 - You don't get rich by digging gold... you get rich by selling shovels to miners!

2 - Do you already have your socks off and the video camera ready to tape the moment you'll eat them?

5876  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: i want ma own coin. programmer wanted on: November 24, 2011, 03:30:17 PM
mining is done by us, on a central server!?

Why do you need a block chain then?
Can't you just use a regular accounting system instead of a crypto coin?


The blockchain manages itself Wink

Somethingawful thread is so damn sad. Buncha fat nerdy adults picking on a teenager is what it has become.

This is completely accurate.

Well, I hope it gets to that price, that way you'll be able to pay for the rights to use a picture that's not watermarked...

Dude, don't act stupid, you are usually smarter than that...

It's the distribution of miner softwares, softwares to conceal miners, etc. that gives it the reputation of malware distribution, not the flame wars.
