Don't PM me OP. Ask your question here in public please.  I wont respond to Newbie PMs - too risky.
OP wants to know how to post the txid for his payment.

It would be nice to see the txid for this payment otherwise it's hard to believe.

Doing this type of thing with a post never occurred to me.  It was a good lesson for me.
I'm glad Quartx grabbed a screen cap of my original post.  It's nice to know that the community will rally against scammers.

Take a picture of yourself blowing a kiss then print it out.  
Use a heavy piece of white card stock and paint or colour the entire page to appear as a bright blue sky.
Carefully cut out your image of you blowing a kiss and glue that to the card stock.
Using some wrapping paper with varying colours and designs (or tissue paper if you have the patience), cut out a few hearts of different sizes and glue them in front of your picture so it appears as though you are blowing the hearts from your hand(s) into the air. (if you want to be funny, throw in a few bitcoin symbols)
Find a nice verse to print out (or you can write it if you have neat writing and/or can do calligraphy) and glue that onto the card stock as well.
You could add some metallic sparkles or cut out some flowers to add to the picture too.
If you want it to be awesome, put it inside a picture frame.

edit: you should probably move this to "off topic" as it doesn't belong in "Bitcoin discussion"


Here's another idea.  My mom wouldn't like this I imagine... I already bought her something anyway.





that kind of cup is explicitly insulting his/her son and they will leave their parents and engage runaway for sure. be respectful to children, not all of them tolerates.

 It says "My kids are the shit" which translates to "My kids are awesome".
Now if it was written, "My kids are shit" then it would certainly be insulting to the children.
My suggestion would be not to order the mug from somebody who scores lower than 100 on TOEFL.

 What about the craft I recommended?  Are you too busy make a craft?  Is blowing heart-shaped kisses insulting?

has modified a post I made in thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1463720.0 to make it appear as though I am vouching for him.

I sent him nothing and have received nothing from him.

Here is the initial post (Thank you Quartx!)



Here is the altered reply to that post:

"What am I?" is a wrong question. The right question is "What am I not?".

 If we were defined by what we are not, the possibilities would be infinte.  It is easier to define what we are.



I didn't say "we were defined by what we are not", I just said that trying to define what we are leads nowhere.
It's wiser to analyze and find out what we are not. And the possibilities are not infinite, they are just bodily and mental phenomena.

 Yes I know!  That's how a discussion works.  I quoted you and then I said something in reply to what you said.  Clearly, you didn't say what I said; I said what I said.  I didn't say what you said; you said what you said! I am me.  I am not you.  <-- see what I did there?

"What am I?" is the right question.  "What am I not?" would take much longer to attempt to answer and you would NEVER be understood. 

By the way, I am not mean-spirited. Wink



It does take a long time to find the answers to the question "What am I not?", but if you don't try, you'll never get the answer (you have to discover the answer yourself).
To get an idea what I'm talking about, see Vipassana. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vipassan%C4%81

 Interesting read but I think it would take me longer to attain enlightenment through Vipassana nana than to consider all the things I am not.  Maybe I'll take it up when I retire Wink

I think a person can be self-centered without being mean-spirited.    Cool

7592  Other / Off-topic / Re: Anyone use those yellow tint glasses for computer eye strain reduction? on: May 06, 2016, 12:56:54 PM
f.lux is not meant to reduce eye strain.  It is meant to change the hue of your screen.  The reasoning behind f.lux is that your eye contains receptors that are sensitive to blue-green light and play a role in regulation of the body's circadian rhythm.   Rather than be blasted with blue-green light around bed-time, your eyes get a nice warm light and your ability to sleep is less likely to be compromised.

 Yellow tinted glasses (also called shooter's lenses) are an older technology that play on the fact that the eyes cannot focus well on blue light.  The blue light rays bend more and focus on a point in front of the retina rather than on it.  This is called chromatic aberration.  These are purported to reduce eye strain because the eye doesn't have to work as hard to obtain a good focus.  I remember in the 80's when "blu blockers" became the rage.  Everybody was wearing them... now not so much.

 If you find you are having eye strain, headaches or blurred vision using the computer monitor, you might be better off with computer lenses.  These are meant for a focal point slightly further away than reading and they are also designed to reduce glare.  These are awesome for reducing eye strain.  I use them and I was surprised that the optometrist recommended them for my nieces who don't normally wear glasses at all (they were complaining of headaches).

I have now reviewed your analysis and have concluded you are talking out of your ass.

Please provide technical justification.

It's increasingly obvious that despite not being able to present actual cryptographic proof Wright is putting a lot of effort into obfuscation and trying to sway the public opinion, whether it's for his business interests or something else.

You do not seem to understand the math. Either Craig broke SHA256 or he has Satoshi's private key.

You do not seem to understand that linking to your own post doesn't prove anything. Can you post the public key, the message Wright signed, and the signature for everyone to see and verify?

The analysis was provided by others already. The review of that is ongoing here.

You, my friend are peerless; there can be no review of your work.

Do you enjoy being a troll?

You trolls can eat your words now.

As much as you enjoy quoting yourself.
I'm as much a troll as you are an investigator.

I empathize as I know jealously is an affliction of the incapable.

Enjoy your life.

 You'd better look up the word empathize; you might have confused it with sympathize or maybe you're trying to be funny? 
 Thank you.  I do enjoy my life.

Click this quote to read what Gmaxwell and others will respond:

Wholly shit! I am contemplating the possibility that Craig has revealed that who ever created Bitcoin put a backdoor in it!

As I already explained, the signature Craig has provided proves either he has cracked something about the way Bitcoin uses SHA256 or he has Satoshi's private key. Afaics, there are no other mathematical possibilities.

But note this small detail:

You'll note that Bitcoin, for reasons known only to Satoshi, takes the signature of hash of a hash to generate the scriptSig. Quoting Ryan:

Well that isn't so insignificant of a detail when you think more about it in this context.

A cryptographic hash function has a property named collision resistance. Collision resistance is related to preimage resistance in that if we have a way to quickly find collisions, then if the preimage is collision then we also break the preimage resistance for that particular hash value.

Collision resistance is normally stated as the number of hash attempts required to find a collision or the number of rounds to break collision resistance with reasonable hardware. Normally this is exponentially less than computing the SHA256 hash function 2256 times. For SHA256, there are collision resistance attacks up to 46 of the 64 rounds of SHA256 (and 52 of 64 rounds for preimage attack).

So what happens to collision (and preimage in this context) resistance when we hash the hash? Well all the collisions from the first application of hash become collisions in the second hash, plus the new collisions in the second application of the hash thus increasing the number of rounds that can be attacked.

It seems likely that Craig has identified the back door that was placed in Bitcoin as explained above, and used his supercomputer access to find a preimage of SHA256.

If am correct, this is major news and Bitcoin could crash.

I urge immediately peer review of my statements by other experts. I have not really thought deeply about this. This is just written very quickly off the top of my head. I am busy working on other things and can't put much time into this.

 You, my friend are peerless; there can be no review of your work.

i do not know this adress 1B2JjBsT6Awuqhmk6uCYwxDMvHARteJxSj. I did not create the transaction.
I used earlier shared coin. This may be the reason?

 No!  You must authorize a transaction from your wallet.  There are no shared coins in an unshared address.
Also, you sent over 7 bitcoins to 1B2JjBsT6Awuqhmk6uCYwxDMvHARteJxSj on April 29th from 1DkMNcuvdS6CBQT5vACZzS18Rv879NuGb4
 How is it you say you don't know this address?  If that were the case you would have been upset about the loss of 7+ bitcoins earlier.
 txid: 75f2c47f9483bb9dc8a029486057d073cbc77f431c6b4c485b09a9f6112bad7c

 Seems like you should leave the wallet on automatic control until you have a better understanding of how to use the manual features.
