Yes, and that's a great point in favor of GNU/Linux... So, you support all crap/alt-coins then?

At least with windows, all the commands are neatly packaged in a .exe.
In Linux, just as with alt-crap coins, everyone has a version. Debian, Suse, BT, Ubuntu, etc.

Dude!, seriously.
And that's my point right there. Rather than to finish whatever I'm doing then go out and get hammered, I'm stuck figuring out what command does what. Time-management is not a familiar term in Linux.

I just hate the fact Linux assumes I have all the time in the world. And it doesn't help there's really no tech support. Just try this command, no?, then try this, no?!!....well try entering blah. Linux are for those who literally has no life outside a machine. Bitcoin better worth all this crap. Freaking Satoshi. I was quiet happy with my Windows. Actually the first bitcoin client was for windows. I've been using GNU/Linux for about 13 years now, it was love at first sight! Nowadays there are very user friendly distributions, and as far as my experience goes, linux systems are much more easy and faster to use than Windows systems. And tech support is quite good: google.com. Absolutely right, but........I'd rather watch another porn vid.

On the other hand, only OS X and Linux gives me flexibility for one-liners such as ssh root@xpm24 "./primecoind.2 listtransactions \"\" 20 | grep blocktime | sed -e \"s/.* : //\" -e \"s/,//\" | sort | xargs -n 1 -I '{}' date --date=@'{}'" Now I can't even rant properly now that theymos is here. He probably has his own distro.

Linux I find much more friendly to me. Windows can be too limiting. However, I use both OS for different purposes.
Ok, you're just saying that to look kewl. The only dif is that one is free. CMD can do just as much. Nope but stay with Windows we don't really care. Use what you find best suited for your needs. Whoa there. "we don't really care", Who are you? Linus Torvalds. Please not post. I thought you wanted to learn something but you only made a thread to whine about a OS you don't need at all; so, yeah I don't care if Linux is not suitable for your needs. Wow, took you that long to realize. Who makes an off-topic in such a way other than to rant.

I wonder if they're trying to affect the total network Hashrate right before the Difficulty Change. Which doesn't really make sense. Doesn't the whole throughput during the current difficulty affect the next difficulty not just the hashrate during the change?
This attacker (based off the timing and types of attacks) has been poking at BTC Guild a few times (3 times this week), so I doubt it's related to difficulty changes. But as you pointed out, it wouldn't matter since the adjustment is based off the entire 2016 block time frame. Isn't this a normal tactic while solo. Disrupt all major pools to gain advantage propagating your blocks.

Linux is like driving very slowly, admiring all the roadkills. Windows is like waking up at the end of the journey.

Yep. Started shortly after initial post. Over 9 Gb.

bitcoind getblockcount remains the same no matter what? I tried restarting several times. bitcoind currently has the default 8 connections.
What am I missing here?
Edit The entire blockchain torrent is bigger than the default available space on VMware.

BtcGuild now auto-adjust minimum share difficulty regardless manual input? BTC Guild was the first pool to deploy variable difficulty, and if you do not adequately set your minimum difficulty, the pool will adjust it for you. That is why the setting is labelled "MINIMUM difficulty". BTC Guild uses a 20-40 Shares Per Minute range (it doubles your difficulty any time you hit 40 SPM for a 5 minute duration). I "adequately" set minimum difficulty to reduce discarded shares. Maybe server needs more bandwidth? You are after all pushing 300'000 GH atm. Discarded shares are meaningless for stratum. The statistic means absolutely nothing to you unless you're on getwork. Just ignore it. Higher difficulty means higher stales/discarded, how is that meaningless? No, higher difficulty does not mean higher stales. Stales are not the same as discarded work. Discarded is a USELESS, 100% MEANINGLESS statistic when mining on Stratum. Whatever. I'm getting another cup of coffee. I'll post when I have a valid question.

.....And yes, wow, it seems to deep and meaningful that 'Inception' tried to embed things in the public mind, while talking about it. Dislike.
It's called "Mr. Charles".
