1  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [400GH/s] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool on: June 16, 2012, 12:23:27 AM


With some really big spikes.
Maybe try to loadbalance to another p2pool node? What ping you have to current node?

126ms. Been too busy to set up my own.

My node below is successfully running the latest x64
Man, you have over 10% local DOA, something is messed in miner config... I have about 1-2%

Open you node to the public, get a few random users, and we'll see how your local DOA rate fares... Roll Eyes
My node IS open Smiley

Looks like 1RDarke have over 10%...

With some really big spikes.

Buy a pack of guitar strings. You can never have too many strings. Well if there were a music store that accepted bitcoins I would.

If you want to exchange bitcoins for strings, I can accommodate you ...

I usually pay $3.50 for D'Addario XL packs. I think it'd be hard to come close to that in BTC unless you bought in bulk. If it could be done for 1 BTC a pack I'd be in.

3.50 retail or do you buy in bulk? I can't seem to find them anywhere for that cheap, i haven't looked that hard though

Local retail and sometimes cheaper on ebay. They make up for it with the coated strings though.

A car with an air cooled engine would stop working during the summer if it became stuck in stop and go traffic.

Analogy fails.

Hmmm. How do people drive VW Beetles(real ones) in the summer then?

Overheating on hills or in stopped traffic in hot weather is a common problem with the air cooled bugs & vanagons. They changed the engine to be watercooled to address this. There were also aftermarket oil cooling bolt ons to address this problem. Those engines were designed during an era when stop & go in 100 degree heat was not the usual situation (as it became in Los Angeles).

If you say so. I've never had problems in well over 100 degree heat and left idling with it or my 911. I'd be more worried about my Fieros overheating than either of those. But then most people couldn't find the engine let alone take care of it.

The problem isn't idling, the problem is sustained high output at low speeds. Put 4 people in a Vanagon and then drive up a hill in 100 degree heat. Hook a trailer to your 911 and haul a couple thousand pounds uphill in 100 degree heat, see what happens when you do lots of work and are not going 60 MPH. FYI they switched the 911 to be water cooled in 1998.

Finally, those engines are technically oil-cooled and have radiators to dump the waste heat from the oil. Since they are actually liquid cooled, they are not really appropriate to this analogy.



Actually I have towed with the 911. It was only a small lawn trailer but it was loaded with parts so it was probably about 2k lbs. Not a problem except for the car being squirrely and not being able to get out of it's own way.

My Jeep, Blazer and Fieros all have oil coolers too. Doesn't make them oil cooled.

Try harder or we've derailed this thread enough.

They don't. If someone pulls a gun on you, you will be dead before you'll get yours out.

Well damn. Then I've been killed 13 times now.

Guess I'll waste my 5th post on this thread. I'm at 8 hours with just casual reading. Lots of entertainment in some of the threads. I'd read almost the entire hardware subforum before I registered.

Hi, I'm Remy. I've been mining a couple weeks and lurking in the forum so I finally decided to register.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks.

I had seen several sites that accepted them but never really paid attention. Then I finally decided to see what the hell a Bitcoin was. Now I'm mining at 350MH/s and hoping to double it by the end of the month.
