If the 92 in OP's name is his birth year, it explains a lot.  |

Guys, you're being trolled by anti-gun people.

damn the day of blocks we got going on.  I ain't complainin' |

You planning on taking receipt of that lower receiver directly without an FFL?

So in other words little guys like me doing 200 MH/s should probably just stick with a traditional pool until these p2pool issues are settled. Well p2pool may not grow any larger so it may not matter. Still at 200 MH/s p2pool growing larger doesn't help your variance. In the long run you expected return remains the same however in short run higher hashing power results in more variance. If/when p2pool grows larger it becomes more of a concern. If you want to use a conventional pool try p2pool hybrid pool (it provides a 1 difficulty shares as a front end to p2pool so you can still support p2pool indirectly). I'm willing to "support" p2pool if it benefits me, but I really don't see any advantage for myself at this point. There are 0% fee pools that give me a steady payout. I'm agnostic on the arguments about whether p2pool is "better" than normal pools so I'll do whatever gets me the most BTC on average. Security isn't an issue for me since if the pool's web site is hacked I'll only lose less than 1 day's worth of mined BTC. |

Anyone else notice the trend of rising hashing power and falling users? The avg hashing power per user is rising.
Higher network hashing power = lower block variance.
Higher network hashing power = higher share variance.
The above combo is a win-win for large miners but a win-lose for smaller ones. Taken to the extreme at 600 GH/s avg block time is roughly 3 hour (current difficulty). However at 600 GH/s share difficulty is ~1400 and for a 500 MH/s miner that means a 3.3 hour share time. Further increases in network hashing power mean increased not reduced effective variance.
Of course there are potential solutions I am just pontificating.

I think it is time for some lucky blocks!

Not sure they need it. Last I checked they were bragging about beating Whitey at his own game by opening casinos on their reservations.

And so the arguments go on and on with no resolution.
Here in the US, the land of free gun ownership, there are plenty of people who'd love to see the Second Amendment repealed.
And I know for a fact that in the UK there are plenty of folks who wish they had something like their own Second Amendment.

Pic of my little farm is on my website below. Still building the company up but plan to accept bitcoins in the UK and even got the accountant to give it a greenlight. http://www.pyroissolar.co.uk/Wow, who woulda thought! I generally don't associate jolly ole' England with sunny days.  |

When I buy it £0.12 but when I make it I get £0.42 . /Smug solar farmer mining away Pics or it didn't happen. Also, I pay $0.083/kwh in Maryland, USA |

can we have a US forum to discuss stuff like this?
its kinda annoying having your local politics all over the forum again and again.
Don't worry we'll all get over it in about 8 months. |

I acknolwledge that my voting for Ron Paul is a Quixotic gesture.
I simply cannot bring myself to vote for any other candidate and must vote my conscience, no matter what.

He won't win the Republican nomination and I'm not sure he'll run as an independent.
But I fully intend to write his old ass in on election day if I have to.

Free power here  Mom's basement? |

Every idiot can now get a gun via Armory, which is the topic of this thread.
Every idiot can and already does get guns completely off the books right now without The Armory. They're called gangstas. |

Must be nice being outta mawm's basement huh. |

Everything including forum usernames has a combination of the words "bit", "coin", "pool", "BTC" etc in them. What's to be confused about? |
