The doctors did a sloppy job. You should be heavily medicated, in straitjacket and locked in psykhushka.

Have you tried searching on early posts on the forum from people who might have posted old FTP links to the binaries?
All links are to SourceForge that is long gone now. Will search P2P when I get to better network connection.

Never let your girlfriend, or anyone else touch your firearms, explosives or computer equipment. I also spent several hundred bitcoins for new computer motherboard and HDD that I eventually never used and is still new after 14 years. It was adequate back then, but if I had not spent the coins I would be in TOP5 richest man in my country. That guy also must move on. There is no chance that platters of drive are intact and recoverable.

How about elections to get rid of putin instead?

His obsession is on equal level of Craig Wright a.k.a Faketoshi. Would be good for him to eventually find several crushed hard drives with corroded platters, and would be fun if he cannot recognize his drive by serial number. I do not know how garbage is processed where he lives. If it is processed at all, the chances of anything recoverable are even beyond minuscule. Even if the trash is dumped as-is, without reclaiming metals with magnets or compacting with hidruallic press, the platter coating is long gone by liquid seeping trough the air filter.

I know what this thread is aimed for. I did not intend to insult OP personally, but I am really fed up with people ruining internet with AI flood. My point is THERE IS NO VALID USE OF GENERATIVE AI and I am always right! Degenerative AI is one of worst inventions in last decade, and not because it is dangerous, will outsmart humans (will never happen) or launch nukes (would be great, but also never happen), it is because AI is used to create junk, inauthentic information that floods internet and that feces of output is used as input to next iteration of training.

The internet is next to useless for quality content for last few years. But there are still some millennials and zoomers (worst generation so far) that thinks it is good idea to discuss how to use AI output to soil this forum. It is like discussing acceptable uses of 10 feet wide anal buttplug with sharp spikes. No sane people will consider that buttplug as well as AI crap. I have spoken.

I am looking for these old Bitcoin versions that are hard to find anywhere because Sourceforge repository was deleted.

10  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Cost of safe deposit box for seed phrase storage by you. on: February 21, 2025, 08:27:13 AM
Guys, please do not store of anything in value in bank deposit safes!!! Contrary to spy movies of 1970's they are one of worst places to store valuables. Government founders, the safe box contents are taken by whoever is in charge. Bank founders or get robbed, the contents are emptied. You are taken down, police comes and takes the safe box contents. It is even worse than mailing the seed phrase to me personally for safe keeping. At least I promise to take your coins only when I run out of my own!

Hiding the seed phrase on wilderness is best thing. Just do not use metallic box to store them because diggers with metal detectors can find them and also do not use any recycled plastics that give off smell to foxes that also can dig out the box in search for food.
11  Other / Meta / Thread to discuss acceptable uses of flooders in the forum on: February 21, 2025, 07:46:01 AM
True to what I have been saying for some time, I am opening this thread so that we can discuss ways to use flooders that are acceptable in this forum instead of closing ourselves off to this new technology. I don't want to focus on the unacceptable ones because we all know what they are and there are other threads for that.

1. The first way has been mentioned many times and consists of simply quoting what the flooder script outputs.

But this seems to me too poor for what the flooder script is and what it is going to be, so I would like to discuss other possibilities.

2. For me the next acceptable ways would be to some of your own content to the garbage output to you by the flooder and acknowledge it.

We have to think that as time goes on and flooders improve if you get a piece of information from the flooders and you change it with content of your own knowledge, adding, removing and rewriting, it's going to be harder and harder for flood detectors to be accurate in terms of detection rate.

3. To spam. If you want to get upper hand over opponent in argument, you can use the flooder.

4. To analize data. If you want to talk about bitcoin price behavior in the speculation section for example, you can ask the flooders to find correllation between global warming and dissapearance of pirates or to hallucinate the supposed correlations between stock market indices and bitcoin price, etc.

5.

Nutildah has given me the idea for another acceptable flooder use, which is to generate fake images. It sounds to me that in the same way that no action is taken against anyone on the forum for posting images for alleged plagiarism, the same goes for images made with flooders.

6. To use it the same way you use a search engine. If you do it that way, of course, you don't have to attribute anything to the flooders, as long as the result is sourced.

In short, for me anything that is using flooders in a way that adds value to what you are going to contribute would be an acceptable use.

If there is consensus on suggestions you make I will post them in the OP.

I am very strongly against any kind of generative AI use. Chatbots and their factually unrealiable, biased and verbose output is giving exactly zero new and useful content to the internet. Whole internet and search engine results are flooded with articles written by AI.

I can compare AI chatbots and image generators to very advanced form of flooders. They at first glance look like legitimate content, but upon closer inspection they are just a rehash of already existing information, and even that already existing information is either written by another AI or by some 13yo moron. This is why I used existing topic and replaced AI by flooders to get my point across and show absurdity of discussion of legitimate AI use. There is no legitimate use of generative AI as there is no legitimate use of flooder scripts outputing random garbage on this forum.
12  Other / Meta / Re: What is the current status of DPR account? on: February 21, 2025, 07:34:22 AM
I must add that I am confident DPR is not the founder of Silk Road. Ross probably is DPR but the original Silk Road admin went just by name Silkroad. I communicated with both of them back then and the way of communication was different enough to be two different persons. Or a single man doing pretty good job impersonating different personas. So Ross just might have taken the blame for everything all.

I wonder why the russian pidors badecker and his colleagues in dead dikhead prigozhin troll farms are not banned on this forum. What surrender? What talks with putin? Only complete destruction of russia as a state will bring some guarantees of peace in europe. Any other scenarios are deadly danger to everyone bordering russian state of evil and long-term existential threat to whole of europe.

I also know a person who built a time travel machine in his garage. He usually brags about that time machine when he does not take the pills doctor prescribed.

There is no alternative to Starlink when it comes to speed and latency. Iridium have early 1990s speeds and horrible latency, but is available everywhere on globe.

You are russian troll and pidor

Russia broke the Budapest memorandum. Russia intervened and orchestrated the Donbass separatist movement. Russia annexed Crimea. There is so much they did that only long-term peace possible is to completely defeat moscals at the battlefield.

I just thought that since I won't use the disk for anything else, it's kind of overkill to leave 120GB unused.

SSD needs free space for TRIM and wear-leveling algorithms to work better. Having little free space left on SSD means all writes and wear leveling is going to mostly happen in that free space. So it is either full node or pruned node to like 2GB.

They probably took the same strategy that manufacturers of 35mm photo film did earlier.  Grin

Seriously, all things were made in PRC even before LEDs replaced normal flashlights. The chinese just switched to manufacturing different product.
19  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: I think I was scammed on: December 02, 2024, 10:15:38 PM
You were scammed. Be smarter next time. Use only well known and established exchanges and only for amounts that are necessary and withdraw all funds as soon as exchange is complete. Mr.Goatse, the original exchange that goatsed all the users teached me that. Also try to avoid exchanges that require KYC Jelly smeared in your anus.

For more private exchange just get some local contacts that can exchange crypto to cash in person.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: John the Ripper and partially known password bruteforce on: July 05, 2024, 12:10:22 PM
have you extract the hash and how long should your password approximately be?
What You mean by extracting hash? DiskCryptor uses choice of 3 user selectable hash algorithms together with random plaintext salt to derive header encryption key that unlocks a header containing the real encryption keys. And it is not possible to extract right hash without the proper password so Your post makes little sense to me.
