But who can be sure it is dooglus?
Well, we can't really be sure anybody's anybody, but I'm guessing if dooglus posts it, it's dooglus. Who knows which iteration of dooglus we're on and whether or not "dooglus" is just a shared account between three+ people, though. As an aside - this sub-forum's even weirder than altcoin sometimes.  |

It'd be a pain in the ass and I don't think there's a way to do it without not being able to use anything except maybe integrated graphics on the host system (if no integrated graphics on the motherboard, I don't imagine it'd work out -- you need direct I/O virtualization). Your better bet, I think, would be figuring out the issue with QT crashing on your box or just dual-booting when you want to run QT, then mine on Win7. Fwiw, I have no issue with DogeQT on Win7 x64 without compatibility mode or other stuff tweaked.

Way more important than savings rate vs. mortgage interest is mortgage interest vs. inflation (at least in the US, where the savings rate is practically 0%). It's probably one of the best times in history to get a fixed-rate mortgage (and pretty much any cheap debt you can get your hands on) in the US, but that doesn't mean it's a good time to get or keep/refinance a mortgage for you. Inflation/Fed rates have been astoundingly low, which has to eventually change, likely quite significantly where your debt is devaluing significantly faster than the interest rates you can lock into today with you having access to savings rates >0%. Of course, right now, you could use all these different "accelerated checking" schemes (credit unions in particular are good for this, but they're always named something different) which actually pay decent interest (~5% annually) if you jump through a bunch of hoops (generally, something like ACH deposit 1-3 times [Paypal] and use your debit card 5-12 times [Amazon Prime membership will do you well, here, though Meritline can be a great choice, too]), and they usually have maximum deposit limits of $5k-25k.
Most mortgage balances are much higher then this so if you wanted to keep the entire amount in "checking" then you would have a much lower effective interest rate on the money you could use to payoff your mortgage with. It is also important to understand that these interest rates on checking deposits are not guaranteed to last forever, while you are guaranteed to be due for a set amount of interest (based on the outstanding unpaid principle) until you pay off your loan. Another point is that if you were to pay off your mortgage then you can get a guaranteed return on this money over 30 years (you no longer need to pay interest on the money you use to pay off your debt). On the other hand, if you were to invest in anything but treasury bonds, you would be taking on some level of risk and your return would not be guaranteed. When comparing paying off your mortgage verses investing in treasury bonds, paying off your mortgage would be a better investment. Finally if you were to pay off your mortgage, you could then use the money you would use as a mortgage payment to invest in something over time, using dollar cost averaging, preventing you from investing all of your money at the market top. Well, you can have more than one bank/CU account open -- but yeah, the more you have, the more time you'll have to spend meeting their hoop-jumping requirements, but this shouldn't be more than an hour per month per account (and this could be scripted if more than a couple accounts are needed to be open). While interest rates are at historical lows, checking/savings rates have virtually nowhere to go but up, which is why the fixed rate available in HELoCs are so attractive. I'm not interested in them, ATM -- I don't want so much at stake and would be surprised if I could get a HELoC at a good rate, but I'm always on the search for 0% credit card promos. |

Okay, I kind of lied. I'm trying to figure out effective tagging/categorization schemes to recommend games with as part of a side-project, so I'll list off ~1-5 games I think you'd like if you provide me with 3+ games you already enjoy (the more, the better, obviously, so long as you don't do something like vomit out your entire Steam collection of 30+ games). I probably can't help in the following genres: sports, MMO, physical (card, board), gambling. I'll also spit out three random recommended titles from a pool I've created if you ask. I'd really appreciate feedback on the recommended games (good or bad! I don't know what I'm doing.  ) |

By the way, two members of Vector staff have died from ebola desease after getting accidentally infected. It happened ~10 years ago.
You know , having worked for 10 years at least on this vaccine and finding it right now , it seems a bit weird at least , isn't it? I think it's more likely they've had a vaccine (or a few candidates), but it wasn't (and possibly isn't) quite ready. If you haven't worked everything out for a drug, try to take it to market, and then the regulators smack it down, that's no good for share prices. They may be banking on the scare allowing faster and "lighter" approval by regulators for humanitarian, economic, and prestige reasons on the part of the state. It's a conflict of interest which risks creating a vaccine-derived ebolavirus pandemic (similar to VDPV, though rate of occurrence there is extremely, "safely" low) if the regulators aren't incorruptible hardasses. What share prices...where talking about a government funded research center. Vector is the State Research Center of Virology and Biotechnology and is owned by the government. Whoops!  |

Left-field suggestion: be first service to cater to buy-and-hold "traders." Allow users to define a crypto basket by %. -So say 50% xTC, 20% xTC, 15% xTC, 10% xTC, 5% xTC. CcT will ensure the percentages match up correctly. Thus, if a user buys BTC (or whatever) and dumps it in their account, CcT will automatically make purchases so the percent holdings are in the specified range (or with confirmation for each trade to make sure nothing stupid happens) -- I'd assume "don't trade unless funds are deposited" would be a default-ticked box. This way, it would favor buying assets when they're "cheap" -- assuming nothing fundamental changes (in which case, the user would obviously want to change his %s or remove certain cryptos from being counted/auto-bought).
Since cryptos have a fair number of coins representing paper assets, this could be used as a one-stop commodity "investment manager" - so a user could include their "entire" commodities basket, from PMs, to biofuel, to, of course, BTC.

I once saw a map of soviet/chinese missile targets in the US by city.
Every major city has at LEAST 100 nukes targeted towards it, some up to 300.
An intersection near me had a missile targeted for it, because it was a "transportation hub".
What mattered was: command hub, transportation/comm hub, military hub, infrastructure.
We will all die if nukes fly.
Then- IT WILL BE THE RISE OF THE APES!!!!!!
Yeah, but  |

People poke fun at me for living relatively close to Detroit, but I'll literally be having the last laugh when the bombs fall and Russian military intelligence decides nuking Detroit would be a net gain for the US.  |

So long story short, I'm looking at a mobile Mifi for the miners. I should be getting my second S3 tomorrow. This is why I'm so concerned about transfer size. There's virtually no unlimited plans and they have hidden throttling etc.
I'm headed down to T-mobile at lunch to discuss the plan. They seem the most reasonable. It is seriously hard to Google wireless plans. All the comparisons are from 2012-mid 2013 and on each site the plans contain different tidbits for each plan for the same carrier!
Hopefully I'll be up to 880GH/s tomorrow.
AFAIK, Sprint is the only carrier which doesn't have extremely harsh bandwidth caps and does actually have an unlimited data plan at a reasonable price (with "Framily," the price can become ridiculously low). They also don't seem particularly interested in cracking down on unauthorized tethers. The downside is that the actual bandwidth put out by their towers is iffy, esp. outside large cities. On both 3G and 4G, it's a good day when I can reliably get over 100kb/s. -But if you're constantly using a small-moderate amount of bandwidth (mining, full-node syncing), it's the only way to go, really. |

None of the exchanges showed prices that high and BitcoinAverage doesn't track "dark pools", whatever those might be.
I think that's when two hedge fund managers make a BTC500 bet that BTC will reach $7300 by this time next year or he'll pay the guy the difference for the 500 coins from current market rate. |

Only mine during Winter when profitability is low or non-existent. Especially if you use propane or electric heating, the usually-wasted electricity (heat) from miners will offset or completely eliminate your normal heating costs, a benefit you can use to adjust your effective electricity cost. If you're in a place with fairly stable, mild or hot temperatures, to Hell with mining. The benefit is much, much smaller if you have a city natural gas line, too.
Moreover, if you don't regularly use all the rooms in your house, the ability to only produce heat where it's needed is exceptionally efficient.
Last year, I ordered a few small-ish electric heaters due to propane prices and propane's poor ability to direct (rather, my need to re-do the wrapping on the ducts and replace vents, which sounds like a real PitA). Less than a week later, I realized I was being unbelievably stupid and ordered electric bitcoin-generating heaters.

Netlimiter will give you the info you want along even with charts and a tally of how much bandwidth any application is using by day, week, month, or year. (the trial version does all that, IIRC)
Bandwidth used will be mostly dependent on relative share difficulty selected by the pool. If shares are "easy," the pool's stats will be more accurate within a small time frame (less variance), but it can be receiving and transmitting significant amounts of data unnecessarily. It "shouldn't" be eating up more than maybe 50MB/day, and likely far less than that.
ETA: You can reduce the amount of wasted data transmitted by either being your own pool (or set up Proxy Pool, though I think that isn't maintained anymore) so the pool will send you a few "hard" shares rather than sending a ton of "easy" shares to each individual miner you're running. With some pools, they tie share transmittal to worker names, so if you have all your miners using the same worker name, they'll all get the same hard share since it detects you have, say, 5TH/s rather than 500GH/s. (and this shouldn't significantly affect your earnings)

Jeez, I remember forgetting used-everyday locker combinations suddenly. Reliably memorizing a privkey seems impossible.
Day one: "Which number do I press to dial outside the network?" "Nine."
Day two: "Which number do I press to dial outside the network?" "Nine."
Got it down.
Day fifty-seven: "Which number do I press to dial outside the network?" "It's still nine."
Got it.
Day sixty: "Which number do I press to dial outside the network?" "..." "How do you even remember me?!"

Electricity @ $.03/kWh is extremely cheap. You'll likely at least break even with gloomy projections. Conservatively, you're probably looking at around $25-75 profit after three months, with a "maximum profit" of ~$200-600 after ~5-10 months (after which, it's a paperweight). -But a warning fwiw: difficulty and price can swing out of your favor quickly, so it's a gamble, not something safe.

Is the bid we post the price we pay per month or for the 6 months?
Thanks! Total, for the six months (+14 days). |

Very tough question, and I'd love to take this opportunity to callously spout poorly-founded opinions out of my ass. I'll be going by guesstimated amount of evil committed and seeming commitment to continuing rather than "who's the most evil," which I wouldn't know where to begin quantifying.
21st century shitlist:
1) US
2) Sudan
3) NK
4) China
5) Israel
6) Syria
7) UK
8] Russia (ignoring the Chechen wars, remember)
9) France (I'm tempted to forgive France...)
("Islamic militants" not a valid poll option)
20th century shitlist:
1) Germany
1) Russia (tied!)
3) Japan
3) China (tied -- Imperial Japan was flat-out evil, no question - China was more shockingly stupid and callous, but inflicted more harm)
5) Belgium (CSF -- yeah, yeah, practically ancient history)
5) US (tied!)
7) Khmer Rouge
8] Italy
9) UK
(honorable mention for NK, I suppose)

I don't recall any civil wars or widespread beatings/executions when people found out their neighbors immediately sold their Zimbabwean dollars for USD. I don't see why widespread BTC preference over failing national currencies would be any different.
