Probably some DNS issue

Seems so. Just changed my DNS to OpenDNS (208.67.222.222) and site is up.

Wonder what would cause a DNS issue like that?

Works for me with OpenDNS as well
1343  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: coins-e down? on: July 06, 2013, 12:16:49 AM
No problem here now.

hmm, still no connection for me. Maybe a DNS issue, I can try connecting to external IP doubt that will work though

Thanks for the advice guys, but I think it was just something with the cheapo powercolors. I upgraded to Sapphire Vapor-X 7950s and they are running like champs at 1100 engine and 1500 memclock at 1640KH/s  Grin

er.........that's not true

I have exactly the same card, actually exactly the same number of cards in my rig, and it's hashing @ 1640 like champs @ 1.013v with significant lower frequency then your Sapphire configuration.  All on risers.
You just need to find those cards sweet spot, it's doable. Cheesy

the only cons of this card is the fan noise, that kills me
just swap to accelero Xtreme Plus II, and I never see 70C again  Cheesy

What numbers are you running? I have my sapphires averaging 1,925KH/s all together at 73c now  Smiley

I'm surprised there aren't more US citizens on the streets. Even to someone who condones surveillance, the fact that the US government is hunting and criminalizing Snowden shows clearly where it stands.

Really, I thought Americans were civilized. This is not a behavior I would expect from them.

The correct response of the US population would be to march on their government and get out a formal apology to both Americans and unnecessarily targeted people abroad. Snowden should be officially honored for speaking the truth, in the peoples' interest, against massive coercion attempts.

2/3 of Americans think Snowden should be prosecuted.

Where does that poll data come from? Now THAT is sad

I am just surprised how easy it is for them to get away with this.  Half the public even defends the NSA.... because of course, the smartest, largest terror operations use a facebook/skype/gmail/mainstream solution, gotta update your status before blowing up a building.....

Its really sad to see about 90 percent of the population truly do not give a shit. 

Yeah, true story. I mean this is the greatest spy attac in history but it seems that nobody gives a shit about it! I mean how can you just ignore something?
A large part of the answer has to do with how the media has presented or ignored it.

The US government has a deathgrip on all the major news networks, It's difficult to get good information out to the uninformed masses via press.

Good reporting by the Guardian in the UK. I applaud them for not giving one shit about the US governments desires.

After all the things in history government has done, i am not in any way surprised by this. The only thing that's keeping our heads over the water is the fact that the government can't keep up with technology innovation.

If they can't keep up, they will just take what they need from the true innovators.

Many people are upset, but the question right now is what would it take for change? I think most people aren't ready to risk their normal lives and march against the government. Who knows what negative punishment could come from something like that.

I believe it will take a certain breaking point for that to happen, and as bad as everything is now, that still might be far away.

It has arrived, thank you for all the help guys.

I'm extremely happy  Grin

Awesome, glad to see this worked out!

I was going to say, if you see where the last acceptance scan was, you could probably phone the postal hub that it was located at and ask them. Looks like they were just being slow  Roll Eyes
The last thing the tracking information said on USPS's website is that the package left my city.  Even now, that's all it says.

Wow, quite a postal fail then. At least it showed up!

I plan to take his deal, after I secure a set of two physical ltc from smoothie.

Just want to point out the obvious that if you physically ship me two LTC coins, I won't be able to help you repay your loan early by selling some of the LTC, without "breaking" one of those coins.

Yes I understand. The ltc I'm using for that is separate. I also gain a percentage of a colleagues rig output for building and maintaining it and I haven't taken my slice in a while so that will help.
If the LTC youre using is separate, why all the big fuss about the 200 LTC escrow? You've contradicted yourself several times now.

Be wary, Vod.

Yeah, reading the entire thread up to that point I personally thought that you were using the same ltc for the purchase and collateral.

Well, I am BUT if you read the whole thread, you would see I said I have slightly more than 200 LTC. I was rounding down. When I posted this I had 217LTC. I am continuing to mine them, and now have about 230LTC.

The point of me saying I would make my purchase of the physical LTC first is because I hope to have mined enough past the 200 by the time smoothie announces the sale so that the 200 in collateral is separate. That is why I didn't want to let the bulk of my coins go at first, to make sure I at least had enough in hand for the sale.

I believe he stated it would be around 50LTC for a set of two. Everything make sense now?
1355  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 1st Round Voting for PPC Logo Contest - Vote for your 6 Favorite Designers on: July 05, 2013, 02:46:52 PM
Select up to six designers to move onto the final round:
1. Lightning
2. GameKyuubi
3. PhatCowDesigns

What are the submission numbers of your favorite designs so far?
1. 109
2. 21
3. 35

Please add any comments, feedback or suggestions here:
#109 would look even better if the edges of the P were slightly more defined against the background.

Just adding my 2 cents as a user who's recently gotten some loans to build trust and reputation.


Take the deal with vod.

If you don't you will get no other offers because honestly there is absolutely no legitimate reason for you to say no to him.


It doesn't matter who you are, nobody cares because it isn't worth any amount you can loan somebody if they default.


You kind of seem wishy washy on the LTC, One minute you don't want to lose them because of Gox adding it(rofl...)
Next you don't want to be out of control of them because you want to buy physical coins(Why? You're going to sell them if they go on Gox and nobody is going to want your empty physical LTC). Understand nobody wants to give you anything if you are not giving them something they can use to recouperate their loss if you default. This is a useless offer if said recoup items are not within the control of the lender.


You've got a good deal offer here, Take it, New users getting a loan(besides the pure acts of stupidity here lately) is getting more and more slim.


Cheers

I plan to take his deal, after I secure a set of two physical ltc from smoothie. Who said I intended on emptying the physical ltc? They will not be touched. Im treating them as a collectors item.

I understand the concept of a loan, I was just hoping knowing reputable members/being an active member and not a troll idiot would be worth something. It seems too many scammers have ruined the trustworthiness of the community seeking loans here now so if you don't have collateral you're screwed.

Apparently no information has been released about the USB yet... but I guess July 10th is the next date, so I am going to wait a week and see.

This is the link that I got from the forum that talked about it:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1hedyd/asicminer_has_new_blade_airoil_cooled_new_mini/


Thanks for the heads up, ill be watching it. Though the price for usb miners is so low right now, the news one will have to cost more. I'm interested in the performance numbers

no problemo

I'm working on a presentation for some of my local friends to do a large order of the new miners.  Unfortunately they don't have a clue what Bitcoin is or the concept of mining for it... lol


I've built a 3x 7950 rig for a friend and he can barely use email lol. I talked about it so much that he couldn't help but be interested. I've been trying to think of a proper order of how to explain everything to people who don't understand. Sometimes I get carried away with technical details and regular minds are blown

I'm fiending for some usb miners!

You should wait until July 10th, then...

Friedcat is making an announcement on new ASIC miners including a new USB miner... so it should be more cost efficient than what you are getting right now.

I'm planning on participating in a group buy from CanaryInTheMine (reputable group-buyer) if/when he does one.  Working on getting the BTC in the mean-time.

just an fyi

Good to know, I wonder what hash rate improvement will be on these.
