Here's a histogram of your results (100 rolls, 1% house edge; 100,000 simulations; 1024 bet BR). Expected loss = 4.9 base bets -1024.000000 3493

You need to include the path. If you're in that directory you can use ./bitcoin-qt (./ indicates the current directory)
You can also put a link to the file in /usr/local/bin so that it's in your default path
sudo ln -s /bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoin-qt /usr/local/bin/bitcoin-qt
(change the first path to match wherever you have it)
Then typing bitcoin-qt will work from anywhere.

Another option is something like trickle, but I've never really gotten it to work well.

Your expected profit is negative.
Actually that just isn't true. If you have a buffer of 10 rolls, and you roll 100 times. Your expect PROFIT is going to probably be around 40 base units... If you do that your expected "profit" is -5 base units. |

Your expected profit is negative.

What OS? There are software options, and routers can limit bandwidth as well.

Yes that is what I mean, I mean it would be nice to say, I want to have enough cash to cover 5 losses, if I roll 50 times, what are the odds of me winning/losing? Expected Profit, etc
Don't you mean expected loss? |

Surgeons had invested hundred of thousands on education and they operate in hospitals that cost tens of millions to build and they operate with medical robots that costs as high as millions so I would say it's a preety big investment before you can actually operate someone.
No room for the truth here, let's just be jealous that someone else trained more than us and makes more money because of it, a big portion of which goes to the hospital and to pay malpractice insurance. Not to mention they actually save lives instead of the worthless job that the poster probably has. |

Hmmmm, very nice comment.....
However since you clearly don't quite understand what I was saying....I will rephrase it for you:)
Won't the account in question get banned, I am sure it is very easy to track which account the user is trying to sell, making the account completely useless...
No |

Isn't this illegal to do? What is the point of it?
I don't think they can call the bitcoin police on you for that. |
|
|
|
|
Do you have enough disk space?
|
|
|
|
No I don't need internet connection, I just want to generate the private keys in an offline linux live-cd.
Where does linux bitcoin-qt store the blockchain?
In the same directory of the qt or in another directory like in windows?
Normally it's in your home directory in .bitcoin |
|
|
|
#!/bin/bash
if [ ! -f ./DATA ]; then
mkdir ./DATA
fi
/usr/local/bin/bitcoin-qt -min -datadir=./DATA save it as run_bitcoin then type: sh run_bitcoin or: chmod u+x run_bitcoin ./run_bitcoin type which bitcoin-qt to make sure it's in /usr/local/bin |

Sure, but if you buy $40 harddrives you're going to be replacing at least 1 per day.

Right now I have about 4 TB in use at home, but I could see where someone would want more. Of course at work I have much more than that.
|
|
|
|
|
1 TB is definitely not enough, but 20 TB should be plenty. Just get about 13 2 TB drives.

I think it was a bad call as well. It does encourage kidnapping. Having said that, there is a tradition of swapping prisoners at the end of a war. But this war is barely getting started.
I thought the guy was captured in a war zone, not kidnapped? |
|
|
|
|
I'm sure any POW would argue that it was the right thing to do.
I'm sure you'd argue that it was the wrong thing to do, no matter whether he did the swap or not. If you're damned if you do and damned if you don't, you might as well save an American's life and show our soldiers that we'll do anything to get them back.

Will the news that Mark Zuckerburg having more Bitcoins than the Winklevoss twins spark a giant bubble that will skyrocket Mark Zuckerburg and Satoshi Nakamoto to the richest people on the planet?
Only time will tell...
Zuckerberg is already one of the richest people on the planet. |
