Interesting question.  It's strange to see the words good and tech-house used in the same sentence.  I thought I liked pretty much any kind of music but tech house is so so, so, so, so repetitive, tinny sounding drum-machine-on-4-beat-repeat monotony that I think it must have been created as a form of self-abuse.  I believe my top-loading washing machine has a better sound on the "heavy duty" cycle.  If I get a chance I'll record that sound and mix in a hat1 kick hat2 kick snare hat3 kick (ad infinitum) and create the next big tech house hit.

Planning to setup a monero mining pool ... any idea what hashrate is required  to find a first block within a day/week?
Thank you for you help

77500 H/s will get you a block per day divide it by 7 and it will get you a block a week divide it by 30 and it will l get you a block per month... keep in mind all of these are averages.

Hello

I'm just wondering.. for example I'm gonna go fauceting and that faucet site withdraws your coins directly to your wallet address. Is it okay if I register a paper wallet address so that I will save more coins and avoid withdraw fees on web based wallets.

thank you in advance.

 The fees you will incur have little to do with the wallet and everything to do with the bitcoin network.  A paper wallet will not help you to skirt the fees.

Cat B30 durable and reliable mobile phone have 2 sim cards and 2MP camera. It is right choice for extreme weather conditions and works well. Plus price is cheep, not high priced. Check this mobile phone here - http://www.catphones.com/en-gb/phones/b30, for worldwide dealer network - see here - http://store.catphones.com/uk/p_cat_store_region.aspx.

 Most of us here would be hard pressed to believe a 2 MP camera is the best available but I'm sure we are open to some convincing.

Asus Zenfone

The dual sim Asus Zenfone 3 (ZE552KL model) has an awesome camera (f-stop of 2.0) and the phone is actually quite reasonably priced.

 I have read some really good reviews for the Hwuawei P9 camera as well.  It uses quality Leica lenses.

 Here's a side-by-side comparison:

I have to agree with Admiral_Bit on this one.  Tifossi is professional and quick to answer questions (and I had quite a few initially as I was very new to the IPTV scene).  He let me start the free trial on my terms so I was able to play with it during my time off work.  Any questions I had were answered within minutes so it was an excellent first experience.

 I lived it my friend.  It went 300 percent in one day and came back to earth again.  You're looking at historical charts that don't show any detail for the trading day - only daily closes.
What do you want an affidavit?


You are wrong - it shows also intraday highs and lows - it is called wicks. Your have false memories my friend.

It might make 300 percent around the time when pizza was bought for 1200BTC - but ever since it broke $1 it never did something even close to that.

 I'm not going senile yet.  I lived it.  Too bad you missed it and have to rely on some flawed historical data.  I wish I had taken a screen shot or two... I was busy talking to a buddy on the phone about it as it went down.  


And yet - have a look at this Cavirtex chart:
this is 10th of April 2013.

Have a read on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_memory

 Heh!  Well now I don't even know for sure if I was being sexually abused at the time because I thought I was in the house alone.  Maybe I wasn't even trying to buy Bitcoins so I could order one of those BFL 50's?   OMG - I just looked in my computer room... well what I thought was my computer room... and I don't even have a computer in there!  Shit it's not even a computer room! It's a pantry. BFL doesn't exist, CaVirtex doesn't exist - it was all just a false memory.

  I guess the prosecution will have to invoke the false memory theory.  I'm sticking with my story.

why boil the milk at all? buy pasterized milk, if you need to heat it, you have microwave Smiley

  Well depends where you live.  It's much cheaper to buy raw milk from the farmer in Romania so you boil it to kill the bacteria.
Also, you put a wooden spoon over the pot to prevent it from boiling over - but you should still watch it so it doesn't burn!

 Oh yeah, nobody has a microwave in the country.  Lucky to have a indoor plumbing!
6289  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22] on: February 28, 2017, 06:27:52 PM
It seems that when I run oclvanitygen with GPUs, it is also using CPU power to mine. Is there some way to disable CPU usage when using oclvanitygen with GPUs?

it has to use a little cpu to verify the key.. its back like 100 pages or so..

but if your cpu is at 100% than you have something wrong.. it shouldnt be that much.



Yeah I can understand a little bit of CPU but it is maxing it out at 100% (overclocked 2500k) so I assumed it is also trying to look for keys on the CPU? Or does it really take that much CPU to verify the keys?

 What video card do you use?


Using a Nvidia 980gtx card to do the searches. Is it just processing so many keys that its taking a lot of CPU power to keep up?

 I just tested my machines.  In one I have an Nvidia 970 and oclvanitygen uses ~16%CPU (5820K slightly overclocked).  In the other I have a radeon 7970 and oclvanitygen uses near 0% of the CPU (an i7-920) - it flickers occaisionally to 1%.  Wish I had a 980 for comparison.  I didn't anticipate that much difference in CPU requirement for the different cards.
 It didn't seem to matter if I used a list or just a single address, the results were the same.

I have noticed BTC while overall goes up, in say a run up, it seems to drop really fast....why is this in your opinion?

  EVERYONE is trying to get out of their position at the same time when the price begins to drop which exerts yuuuuge downward pressure on the value.

 The first time I put money on an exchange to buy Bitcoin, the price began to rise from ~$70 at 9 am and by 11am it was around $270 - scared the shif out of me so I went to bed ( I was working night shift anyway) and when I awoke in the afternoon, it was back down to around $90 again.
True story (though the numbers may not be exact).  The rise was actually much quicker than the drop though the whole episode took less than a day.

 


Bitcoin never appreciated 300% in 2 hours.

This is how it broke $70 the first time.

6292  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why does BTC drop much more sharply then it rises? on: February 28, 2017, 01:07:40 PM
because selling you give more chance to buy back more coins, while buying not, besides hoping for a better shorting in the future

this make shorting more attractive always, over "longing", but it's not always like that, we had many big pump that surpassed the fast dump

are you sure about 2013? the pump made bitcoin $1200 in two weeks

 Yes 100% positive it was 2013!  My cash deposit into CaVirtex was confirmed April 10, 2013, 7:38 a.m.  It was my first attempt to buy BTC for the purchase of an ASIC Bitcoin miner.   The morning I tried (which I believe was the same morning I found out my cash deposit was confirmed), I placed buy orders up to $90 but I kept missing the price - thought I didn't know how an exchange worked - and then I sat and watched in horror until the price was $270!  I really thought I would never get any Bitcoin after seeing that. 
 The problem with looking at those historical graphs is that you only see the daily close (or maybe the daily average). On the day I'm speaking of, it went up and down within hours.  I'll see if I can find more detail for April 10th - CaVirtex is gone now - sold out another entity and now it's part of Kraken - so I'm not sure I can find any records of my attempts to buy.

ha its doing that right now; 1215 down to 1195 and dropping in like 1 minute...

 Well, 1200 seems to be a resistance point - if it makes it through there, I don't think there is any resistance after that so... moon?

That is a great idea and would be a nice break every-now-and-again!

I ended up buying some of this; it's supposed to stop sound: http://www.nextacoustics.com/2-inch-soundtrax-acoustical-foam/

From the site:

[These] offer absorption in the mid and high frequency range, but all that exposed area on each panel helps with refraction of sound as well. A little of this treatment will go a long way to cleaning up your sound issues.

We'll see ...  Undecided

Yeah I have a pair of cheap noise cancelling headphones (Sony MD5 I think) that I wear in my computer room.  They remove a modest amount of the constant background noise but then they were only around $40.  I know there are much better headphones for noise cancelling.

Active noise cancellation.  Right now you can get yourself some noise-cancelling headphones that work quite well.
If you have all of your devices in the same room, you may be able to strategically mount a few speakers that will reproduce the inverse of the sound waves in that room which when broadcast should effectively cancel each other out and make the room silent (or at least a lot quieter).

 Maybe you can contact these guys - I think your setup would be much simpler and less expensive.
