BTC pool, although I do have an LTC account too.

Luck, hashrate, you name it - every graph in the website is showing nothing for me.  |

WTF 17d no communication? Graphs broken? This isn't the ozcoin I remember.

Lesson learned: private keys (wallet.dat) are just that: private. Once you put them out there, cloud, webserver, hosting server, email, etc, THEY ARE NO LONGER PRIVATE.
Can we move along now?
Actually, I think the real lesson here for pool operators is that they should all move to the eligius model: - eligius has no notion "customer accounts. These are a giant PITA for the miners, require the pool op to manage a DB which is a PITA in itself. Accounts are also the source of a whole host of security problem: - need to create account/login -> need to enter data in website -> exposure surface to SQL injections - need an email -> phishing attacks, etc . - on eligius, miner just send their shares along with a public address - on eligius, no need to store any kind of BTC amount on the pool server at any time: the payout is built into the block from the coinbase. No BTC ever hit disk. - on eligius, added bonus: anonymity for the pool users - on eligius, added bonus: much easier to use for miners P2pool is another one. |

That sux.
Graet, I hope it's not optimistic of me to think you might avoid some of those unfounded accusations etc. You've been around long enough and anyone who's dealt with you will know better. You've paid out of your own pocket a few times I know of for minor calculation errors, donated to devs, and put up with fruitcakes on IRC better than most people could manage.
I'm confident you'll reap the benefits of your hard work.

cgminer can underclock memory too.
|

I found with the latest cgminer from github, I didn't need it anymore, as cgminer now has options to set GPU and memory frequency.

BitCoin would most likely not be considered money or currency under US law. US law can be extremely broad in application because of the doctrine of stare decisis. French law is based on civil or continental law which is even more code based and thus likely to be less broad in application.
There will need to be legislation written to define BitCoins but, at least in the US, this will be almost impossible to do if it is to pass Constitutional muster given doctrines such as void for vagueness under due process in contrast to ignorantia juris non excusat.
Did you draw a pentagram on the floor before that incantation? I hope the spirits agree. |

I had one card with pretty even temps across both cores, and ran at about 80-85 for a couple of months. The other one was much worse, with one core at around 75 and the other at between 95 and 100. I've since fixed it by watercooling, but I'm thinking that perhaps taking the fans off and re-doing the heat conducting paste/pads might balance the temps a bit better.

Using AMDOverdriveCtrl on Linux, I can underclock the memory to 120mhz below the GPU frequency. I suspect the limit is 128mhz but I haven't tuned it any finer.

I have about 1.7g/h, and have made around 0.8 via btcguild in the last 24h. They've had some bad luck recently, and I would expect normally to get around 0.9 to 1.0 per day at current difficulty. You can calculate approximately what you should get here: http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.phpThe thing is though, the bigger the pool the more consistent the payouts. Atm if you were to mine solo, you might not see anything for months. BTCGuild is pretty big and they're still quite heavily affected by luck. None of that proves your pool owners are completely honest (or not). I go for the bigger pools for just that reason. |

Some people can remember a lot very accurately. I don't have the best memory myself, but I reckon I could manage a phrase or two pretty easily.

How do you define 'legitimate'? How do you define 'demand'?
It might result in a lot more friendly discussion if you were to use e.g. the word 'promise' instead of 'threaten'. Changing the language like that should get you towards the language of contracts, and ease access to the large body of knowledge that exists in that field.

I personally think that the fact that a majority of hashing power can overwhelm the network is a good thing. The unequal distribution of wealth, which makes this undemocratic, is a separate social issue in my mind. The alternative is a system that allows those who amass wealth to protect it indefinitely, which I think is dangerous. True, it means that those who have legitimately worked to earn their wealth loose protection, but it also means that the majority can reclaim wealth from malevolent dictators etc. This is political though and just my point of view.
My point is, I don't know if you can have a network that relies on the decision of the majority and still prevent governments and powerful people from being able to obtain that majority.

Three reasons why it would:
1. Moore's law - disk space is cheap and getting cheaper
2. They use Merkle trees (yeah, I don't get them either)
3. They periodically update the official client to use a 'key block' - so newer clients don't need the whole block chain

It might provide circumstantial evidence in case of DDOS - i.e. which pool the attacker is using (since that one will likely not be affected).

You could generate the wallet from a fingerprint or retina scan.

Hi - I'm Scott, mining a little, saving for watercooling gear  |

Your grammar and punctuation is quite good.
