Poor people of Sydney.
Time to execute such barbaric knife yielding murderers if you ask me.
I often wonder why don’t we spend money on a blinding chip. And a paralyzing chip. A person in NYC walked up to a mother and her nine year old daughter. Tossed a hard punch at the nine year old and knocked her down. A repeat offender bla bla bla. If there was a blindness chip and it was placed on him after the first attack he would not have done the second one. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/man-arrested-after-punching-9-year-old-girl-in-grand-central-terminal-police-say/ar-BB1lA3MCso slap a chip on him and even if he is on a no bail release he is not going to do it again. |

Did a bit more testing over the weekend.
A 130 watt Dell unit (yes I was running it over spec) and a generic 150 watt unit.
And all were within 5 watts at the wall when running this unit at top speed.
135W pull on average bouncing between 135 and 140 depending on what the miner was doing. Did not see anything below 135 for any amount of time and did not see anything above 140.
The temps were also surprisingly all the same after 30 minutes. Figured the Dell would be hotter or trip off since it was being pushed over spec but it was fine.
Guess they all come out of the same factory, just with different labels :-)
-Dave
when and if I ever get it (the miner) I do have the better dell it specs to 165 watts and 28 volts at 5.893a https://www.amazon.com/Laptop-Charger-Adapter-Precision-5-893A/dp/B0CL2LL47R/ref=sr_1_3?If the better dell is really better it needs to save watts if Dave does 139 watts at full speed and the high end dell does 130 watts you save 9 x 24 = 216 watts a dat and a watt in 5 days. if you have 20 cent power you save 20 cents every 5 days or $14.60 in a year. cost of 30 vs 105 means years before you make that up. I will post when and if it shows up. So they have admitted there is a psu issue. They have admitted they are delayed. Fucking typical. |

I confess I sold some million satoshi yesterday at 63K. I’m not a truly HOLDer, but a weak hand. I am scared when BTC “crushed” to 62K, and I thought it may go to zero.
I shouldn’t sold but bought the dip, because halving is coming in several days.
I shouldn’t neglect JJG’s long post. I should study Toxic’s TA carefully, and I should have a dream in which I will own a same lake as Jimbo.
Have a good day! WOers.
I grabbed btc three times yesterday. good prices. maybe 1800 usd worth at about 61-63 I am waiting for a big drop on monday.. or not. |

The Russia - Ukraine war is one war that the global economy is on what I will call the borderline of recovery from and here is another conflict in the Middle East region somewhat a major supplier of energy to the world. if this conflict should escalate with other major countries (which I chose not to mention) getting involved the global economy might be hit with worse recession than we are currently facing.
More devasting would be for those importing nations mostly those of Africa, against this backdrop and in extension this can also have a significant effect on the price of bitcoin not performing high as investors have been predicting in anticipation to it's halving circle of a bull run as some actors are forecasting of an indeterminate impending ww3.
By definition WWIII would mean close to half the world would be at war. If that happens I have to think someone is nuking. If nuking starts fuck btc fuck the internet. Empty land areas with caves. Mountains, food stashes will be the new wealth. Not btc |

you need to look at it in terms of US Law. Bitcointalk and theymos is subject to US Law. Jambler aids and abets a mixer = fact if bitcointalk aids and abets Jambler they could be charged with US federal law violations. Best case I can explain it with is this article https://www.hrw.org/report/2013/12/05/offer-you-cant-refuse/how-us-federal-prosecutors-force-drug-defendants-pleadit is about federal crimes mostly drugs ,but read the techniques the government used against people. Theymos does not want any part of this. I can't say that I blame him in the least. @logfiles (good name) yep we are living in 1984 pretty much. What I like is : all audio all images all video can be Ai'd should be considered Ai'd and not 'real' A great way to live is it not. Matrix coming up soon. The forum is a breeding ground for fake yuaunty meme coins and everything that steals money from people. You should know this, but the jambler thread was created in 2019 and their business is successful and there seem to be no complaints. the law in question for the usa went into effect Jan 1st this year. it is federal law and is a felony to receive 10000 usd worth of any crypto without reporting full kyc to the feds. So any usa person using a mixer and receiving $10,000 usd worth of coin would need full disclosure from the sender of the coin. It is very likely why bitcointalk is not advertising mixers. I ended my mining in clifton due to the new laws. we earned 19000 four way spilt in Dec 2023. under new 2024 laws I would have been subject to much stricter reporting laws. thus the mining ending. I certainly would think not every mixer will give its kyc to the receiver of the mixed coins thus Theymos decided it is in the best interest of bitcointalk to not promote mixers. to further explain the problem. oh 10000 rule for one tranaction. I will do 2500+2500+2500+2500 that would quadruple the law breaker as they will say you did four moves in 4 days to avoid the 10,000 rule https://www.anaford.com/articles/new-crypto-reportingthe law was passed in 2021 but is getting inforced starting Jan 1 2024. Even worse the exact reporting procedure is yet to be released by the IRS. Ie what is a legit amount that repeats and adds to beyond 10,000 but is not reported. Ie 1200 a month for 10 months is 12 grand but really spread out. very likely okay. 1200 a day for 10 days is 12 grand but not spread out very likely not okay. So You used jambler over and over maybe always under 1000 but a lot when did you start breaking the 10000 rule. Right now no one knows. Maybe they do full guidelines and the issue ends. |

I have crypto mining in mind right now and I am stuck at a junction between these two offers.
X10 of RTX 4090 which costs $2000 = Very good for ProgPowZ which can net me $19 per day using
Or x30 pieces of RTX 3070 graphic cards which are very good for the same ProgPow and can also net me $19
RTX 4090 costs $2000 each and 3070 costs $330 each.
What I was able to find out is that the ten 4090s will take less power consumption than the thirty 3070s, if you are in my shoe which offer will you choose and why?
10x2000=20000 30x330= 9900 you net $19 either way. well assuming they are used with no warranty but they work. you will likely get 2-3 years use. 19 x 365 = 7000 a year. so in two years you paid off the 3070 and have 4000 cash and you still owe 6000 on the 4090 resale in two years 3070 150 a card or 4500 4090 1000 a card or 10000 so 3070 4000 profit + 4500= 8500 4090 6000 lose + 10000. = 4000 so it is likely that the 3070 would be better. after two years mining. |

.... this misattributed quote .....
....
Oh bollocks. I and sent a merit before doing my Einstein quotes homework. My bad.  .....
...l. Which is why I have friends that don't eat pork. I just feel sorry for them that they don't get to eat it.
Well you could always invite them for dinner and serve a lovely pork roast and tell them how you slaved over a hot stove for hours to make it just right. Then in the event they are too polite to refuse to eat it, they'd thoroughly enjoy it. Win win. I did get one Jewish girl to do that. She liked it.  When does the first market open for monday? Is there one in Japan or China or Hong Kong. edit The one in hong kong opens in 20 minutes correct? |

JJG is too serious at times.
I am hoping for a large dip on Monday maybe 55k. I am ready for a nice buy if it gets that low.
If not thats fine too.
I think we will have quite a bit of volatility for months to come.

Jambler "has a feature advertised for taking property, improving its privacy somehow, and then returning roughly the same type of property"
Strictly speaking, it doesn't. Jambler doesn't act as a mixer, in and of itself. For partners, yes, it takes property, and yes it might return roughly the same plus a profit, but it nowhere says that it improves their privacy. The point of being a partner is to earn profit. I could go on, but I don't think it matters, because it seems that you've made your choice. You could slightly change the criteria in the OP and it'd be rightly considered a mixer. You can't beat the admin. you need to look at it in terms of US Law. Bitcointalk and theymos is subject to US Law. Jambler aids and abets a mixer = fact if bitcointalk aids and abets Jambler they could be charged with US federal law violations.

People have asked, as I did, how many R909s can the SmartHub handle? I have 8 with plans to get 3 more to use all 11 USB ports. I am using it with an EVGA 1600W PSU that has 9 VGA ports and with special cables, use the 2 CPU ports. Since there is plenty of CPU and RAM available, maybe a USB hub will give a few more R909 slots, with an additional PSU to power them.    here are your photos |

Lots of investors are still waiting for a lower entry point.
It might be pressuring so it is important to keep a clear head. All these screams about buying now might make an investor panic and do something out of impulse.
Stick with your plan but learn how to assess a situation and adapt into it accordingly instead of jumping right into it.
The current price dips is already a big opportunity to enter the market for newbies, but it would be more attractive if the price would drop even more so that even old investors will continue to DCA and create a maximum purchase. However, those who are new in the market and have bought bitcoin when the price is quite high must be real panicking at this moment but knowing this is just temporary so they should not feel highly pressured now because it would only push them to create wrong decision that they might only regret later on. Just buy and hold. Stick with your plan so you can finally achieve your goal while the current market condition is giving you huge opportunity to make it happen. I see what happens on Monday. But I can get a few thousand dollars worth in staggered buys if I chose to. Maybe 61, 59, 57 if they come up. |

Einstein: Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Any Einstein quote deserves a merit in my book.* (*don't get any ideas newbs. I'm being rhetorical....sort of...) ....
I have seven day adventist friends moslem friends and jewish friends ......
Well, I have a black friend and a couple of gay acquaintances, so there is that. Gay friends meh I have a dozen gay relatives. In the case of one family of my cousins three out of five are gay. Well One is ? ? His name was Joe but he wants to be Jolene. So gay or trans whatever. I don't exclude people for most anything at all. Which is why I have friends that don't eat pork. I just feel sorry for them that they don't get to eat it. |

What did I miss? Have all the sky daddy believers killed each other yet?  I'm going to enjoy eating some pork tonight. Might have some extra to make up for a couple of sky daddy believers not eating any today. hmm pork . bacon and eggs. better yet slow roasted fresh pork shred it or pull it and mix it with tomato sauce peppers onions and cannellini beans. Then lay it all on a plate of riced califlower. Basically keto with a little carb. I can eat as much as I want. Lose weight and no sugar spike. To miss out on the meal above is sad. I have seven day adventist friends moslem friends and jewish friends that won’t ever know what that tastes like. |

So yeah, sure, prepare to give me a lightning address, whether it is your own address or some other lightning address... and yeah, right now I am not very comfortable with such low amounts being processed on chain.. at least right now and not without the consent of the recipient to receive such a low amount (which might be a little bit lesser of a deal if the amount were sent to an exchange address), but yeah if you are agreeable to using lightning as a substitute payment route then we could probably make that work.. .. yeah if it comes to the actual exchanging of payment information, we most likely could figure out the part of the actual confirmation of the address by PM.. and I am not necessarily going to delay, but I might not be able to pay right away, either.. we have to make sure to coordinate and make sure we are available .. depending on if the lightning network invoice expires or if it is one that does not expire.. .. all good practice, in the use of various bitcoin (or bitcoin-related) payment options, I suppose...
Appreciate all that. However, as far as I am concerned the bet is now void ... the VWA has (as we both probably expected) dropped below the $67.4k mark and as we hadn't actually completed the negotiations on the terms of the bet, no bet was agreed and so no payment is required. I will always count you as the winner 🏆 |

POW has attack vectors.
clogging the mempools with ordinals and hashrate manipulation is being done as I type.
I am a fan of POW not pos but POW has flaws.
POS is simply a terrible idea 💡.

my memory might be tricking me, but I think it started from "Bitcorn" That would make this the first occurrences: Dude.. its called microphone! No need to shout the voice through the internet
Bank academic guy doesn't know how to use a mic! Bitcorn bubble! Edit: Single digits! MY FUCKING EARS! Bitcorn, the coin that will hit single digits by June! Guaranteed.  I recall it starting in 2013 with a mispronunciation by professor Mark T Williams of Boston University. It led to him being known as Professor Bitcorn. I haven't found the actual quotation yet but I'm sure it's out there somewhere. For now I've had my piss and re-hydration and I'm going back to bed. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mark_T._WilliamsJust woke up pissed. Checked coinbase - checked yahoo news to see if WWIII is really starting - posted here in the wo hmm have to make morning coffee I think I smell a haiku coming up. |
