So are you implying that a virus could be injected into your system through your cursor, or is it just a case of cursor jacking?

See thats, what I don't know. Everybody is staying silent.

All I know is that they may inject .js into your cursor = what kind of damage?

From this here, I guess it's pretty bad.

http://koto.github.io/blog-kotowicz-net-examples/cursorjacking/
Oh, I get it. Well, the issue is visiting a malicious website in the first place. Nobody will waste time to fool around with your cursor when they can convince to run a java applet or download innocent looking malware. At least that's the way I see it.
1122  Other / Off-topic / Re: Cursor Manipulation Security Flaw on: February 14, 2014, 03:09:50 AM
Look, I can't really answer this. Perhaps it's problematic if the cursor manipulation carries on to other site. I believe it's far fetched though.

What I know is that I stay away from forums like those, in the first place. Mozilla, Ubuntu and a few others.

This was a honey trap for the most selfish miners on here. Welcome everyone glad you could come to my little meeting....names noted.



MINING IS DUMB YOU AREN'T SOME KIND OF WORKING CLASS HERO MINER YOUR JUST TURNING YOUR EXPENSIVE COMPUTER ON!!!!
I'm not the one that brings "high minded" arguments. Of course it's dumb (but still MUCH better than scammy IPOs  Tongue), considering nice coins that evolve from PoW to PoS like Hobonickels, Bottlecaps, Mintcoin, etc... Of course I'm not altruist (even if I help newbies on preserving their hardware and increase hashrate). Of course I'm a lazy ass and no hero.

This isn't my job or my life either way. It's an HOBBY, that pays for itself.

But that's not why you're here.  Tongue You actually don't give 2 shits either way. You made this thread not to create an "honey trap", but BECAUSE you're trying to pump (or you're butthurt about) the worthless Nxt bag you're holding.  Grin

It's funny how everyone is hating on dogecoin, did people do this on the early phases of litecoin too?

Dogecoin is amazing if you consider how many new people it has brought into cryptos. The reddit community is one of the friendliest and biggest ever. They are going to surpass r/bitcoin in a couple of months easily.

I'm just gonna lay back and laugh at the haters once dogecoin surpasses litecoin in market value.

uhhhhhh Litecoin was the first scrypt based coin.. none other existed to hate on.
In contrast i posted July 13th 2013 in this forum a joke coin i never actually made called BunnyCoin = https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=258208.msg2753177
What is funny is the description i used 8 months back is the same as what Doge coin is !
and the fact that it was such a common on goin *aggravating issue a year ago should tell ya something.. if not people are brain dead blind delusional Doge Tards..

and OP your on the money i think.. i agree !

these other guys (or girls) mouthing you off are spreading the usual crap.. ohhh your just jealous or your so mad lol
ya ya heard them all before.. changes nothing.
Your crappy shit scam coin clone is still a crappy shitty little scam coin clone.

Don't like the complaints ? Then quit making them and quit supporting them and quit begging for pools and quit asking for them to be added to exchanges.

Closest thing i think that match's what you asked for would be BCX maybe ? he has taken some coins to their knee's lol

But what we need to do is hunt down the coin cloners and beat their ass.. that might help  Grin
I hope to god all fanboys of Doge coin etc lose all their money.. they deserve it.

and my fav is hey don't take it too seriously after all it's just money.. and the threat of jail time etc etc LOLOL
tell that to the guys arrested by the FBI from LocalBitcoins in Florida last week or the many people who have lost vast amounts of money.
Every time some coin cloner said that to me before as his excuse why he made a shit coin i wanted to punch him the fucking face hahaha
You and the OP aren't making profit on alts, of course you will agree.

Do you honestly believe most even care if the coin they are mining or trading is a pre-mined, cloned "dead" shitcoin, as long as they can profit from it? As long as they do, of course you will get lots of "fanboys"

That said, claiming that a coin is bad just because one can't profitably trade or mine it, is pathetic and to be disregarded. Primecoin for example was the first with "useful" Proof of Work

What is your CPU, MB, cards, OS, software running and miner config?

Use intensity 18 if gpu-threads=1

What's your ping to useast?

Then since these are coin-hopping pools, those 2 screenshots don't prove much. High reject rate can be coin dependent.
1130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 performance between revisions on: February 13, 2014, 02:05:05 PM
The issue may be the Sempron 145 while you use Teamviewer and CGwatcher. Shutdown both and plug the rig to a monitor.

Get http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx and check CPU usage of System, Interrupts and the rest. Then change the priority of cgminer to "High" or "Realtime"

But of course, a single-core CPU is asking for trouble. The Sempron 190 is preferable, even more when one is using plenty of addon software on the rig
1131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wow, Alt-coins.... Game over on: February 13, 2014, 01:55:27 PM
OP, so you are a day trader. And you want that coins that don't allow YOU to profit, just die...

I get it.

Speculators are just a small part of the crypto scene.

Christian, I read about serie 8, Maxwell on Wikipedia...

Since they will have ARM controller, is that an indication that they will allow standalone operation, or it's only evidence that I should lay off the shrooms? Tongue I mean, running linux INSIDE the device is something that technically is "possible".  All they need is power and interface with an USB hub (pendrive for booting and storage, and wifi dongle).

I mean, I'm not saying that NVidia will ever pull such a stunt if/because there is no market, but does the chip actually allow for the device I just described?

Anyone here in my thread mining not just for fun, but seriously for profit as well?  Having a farms of AMD cards in your garage or basement?

nVidia is looking to get in touch with miners to interview them about their expectations for mining related products.  Just be aware that you would be helping nVidia with your information and not your favorite GPU manufacturer AMD Wink

PM me with a brief summary of what you're mining and how and I can get you in touch.

If nVidia is really looking to miners, please tell them to get drama out of the way.

Nobody here fundamentally cares about marketing, drama, fanboyism, "favorite GPU manufacturers", divide and conquer to put people into camps and everything Nvidia is used to. I could go on saying that yes, so does AMD and Intel, Ubuntu vs Windows is equally idiotic and much more. The fact that "so do others", does not invalidate the point.

Coin mining is not about NVidia, PC gaming or Ubuntu. What matters is the point of view of the miner: ROI, hassle-free, getting out of the way, etc... I will buy Nvidia devices if it's the best for me, not for them.

Your last points here are exactly what they would want to hear from you and are probably the entire basis of this attempt to reach out in general.

It would let them decide if an update to CUDA 4.0+ would be the best approach or if they should look into more miner specific hardware designs tha can retain a level of flexibility to run different algo's.

Your concerns mentioned earlier are worth mentioning to them as well. They are valid points and can really assist NVidia in marketing this in a manner best for all miners. That said, there IS going to have to be a  "Look what we can do!!" approach to things... if they don't do it no seriously invested miner is going to take them seriously. This means you WILL see an "NVidia is better campaign" it's inevitable when entering a market you are not a big player in yet.
Yes, of course there is going to be a "the way it is supposed to be mined" campaign and they want to be profitable shovel sellers. However I expect to pay for substance, not for marketing.

Shilliest of the shills.
So, how are you and your "power efficient" scrypt ASICs? Mining lots of maxcoins with them?
1136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Doge coin is bad on: February 12, 2014, 07:37:16 PM
When someone quotes my posts, I expect an answer to their content, not bringing side points and distractions.

First of all, I don't care about your politics and your Tea Party, I'm not a citizen of the United States.

Second, I looked into dogedir; after a LOL, I have to ask you to please not wasting my time and yours with insults to intelligence. Yes, perhaps Doge has a promising future, services wise. The future...

Third, nowhere I said I'm interested in BTC to get rid of fiat. I don't want to get rid of cash in hand. I was very explicit: centralization, payment processors, IMF.

I could go on and ask you where did I claimed "endless supply" and much more, but I rather stop wasting my time with this.  


My apologies, perhaps it was less clear than I had thought.
The first 2 paragraphs where directed as a reply to you, after which it was aimed more in the general direction of other arguments presented in the thread.

Nor did I ever mean to infer that you were American, nor that I have anything todo with the Tea Party movement, but simply tried to offer a simile.
A more generic simile would be to ask if people are turning away from political parties dues to the existence of loud, populist, fringe parties taking up much media coverage. To which I believe the answer is a clear no, and would expect similar results for BTC and DogeCoin, though depending on the motives for their interest.

Your listing of "abusive credit card or payment processor fees, centralized control, IMF interventions, etc..." sounded more like a general complaint of the current system, especially with the etc at the end of the sentence, than 3 concrete problems that BTC could solve. But I must admit that I do not see how crypto currency can do anything about IMF interventions without trying to compete directly with the established system.

As for the "LOL" for dogedir, I have to agree and apologize for posting it. I just recalled there being a business directory for DogeCoins,  and didn't do a proper check of it.
A much better resource would be http://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoin/comments/1wthoq/where_can_you_actually_spend_dogecoins/ with http://shopdoge.com/ seeming to offer GPUs (but a very limited selection). Still a rather impressive listing for a coin that has only existed for 2 months.

I hope this clarified what I tried to convey in the previous post.
I see. Sorry for the tone of my post too.

[If nVidia is really looking to miners, please tell them to get drama out of the way.

I beg to differ. Mention nVidia on litecoinmining and similar subreddits and get laughed at. They don't even seem to care if their arguments are outdated or untrue. It's that bad, really. The only nVidia friendly community are the DOGE guys.

Christian

Oh, I see. The underdog perspective...

Well, I love Nvidia gaming and Physx and devices that "just work", I'm looking at cuda (and NSight) motivated by your excellent effort, however they neglected integer instructions on their devices. It's not so bad because you're brilliant at making lemonade out of this lemon, not that it's Nvidia merit
1138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux] on: February 12, 2014, 06:46:22 PM
A good start would be a complete CUDA engine with "4.0+" capabilities. What's does that 4.0+ mean? A device that has uncrippled integer performance (my 760 is crippled because only on 3.5 there are shifters???  Roll Eyes) that without hardware assist already offers 500Kh/s scrypt for 200€ (compared with the 470Kh/s at 170€ for R9-270). That '+' means dedicated transistors for one or more SHA2 units (if I have a damn clue what I'm talking about  Tongue) and whatever other acceleration possible without being too costly.

Then, resale value and power usage. For resale value, perhaps video out is necessary. At worst I can still sell it as a used videocard, unlike those Tesla server units. Power usage means unlocked undervolting, power/performance profiles, etc...

1140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Doge coin is bad on: February 12, 2014, 06:09:29 PM
This is perhaps one of the most foolish things I've read in a while.

If I want to hold value on a decentralized crypto, why should I ditch a serious well supported BTC? What does Doge offer which is better than BTC? Where can I buy a videocard, a perfume or a toy for my kid with Doge?

Edit: I'm starting to believe the view than some alt-coin shills are more than self-interested, either with an agenda or dangerous idiots. So, your focus is not taking a stand against abusive credit card or payment processor fees, centralized control, IMF interventions, etc... but against BTC itself, the invention that gave us some glimpse of freedom in the first place?

If you are interested in BTC from a political standpoint, as an alternative to fiat, why do you care about alt-coins making it look bad? Is the Tea Party driving people away from the Democrats?
Unless BTC can stand on its own merit, despite scam coins, how does it provide an alternative to the current economic system? If it is so fragile that a few thousand teenagers can overpower it, it doesn't seem to have the strength to be able to stand against the established system... Or do you believe that Doge is the established system trying to take down BTC?


As for where you can buy a toy, or many other things with Doge, why not have a look at the Doge Business Directory http://dogedir.com/ ?

It is also interesting to see the people saying that DogeCoins are dead, because there is an "endless supply", but this is then actually something new that DogeCoin brings to the SCRYPT scene. (ZetaCoin does the same for SHA-256) Yes, it isn't capped, but the inflation that will occur is starting at 5% and will steadily decrease until such time that it will not be noticeable. It will still have less inflation than BTC or LTC for some time after it reaches it's "soft cap" in 2015. This also helps to make it something other than a commodity, which any cryptocoin with limited supplies are, and as such probably a better alternative to fiat. (Just see how the gold standard fared in the last century...)


Lastly, the fact that DogeCoin has gotten a fleet of "crazy teenagers" spreading its "gospel" is what gives the coin a proper chance of success, instead of being something for just the technically minded people.
Do you think Facebook where the first of its kind? Google had an alternative that was used by techs way before, but it never took off. (I can't even remember its name despite having had an account there)
Similarly I believe the friendly, if a bit over-enthusiastic, community is the main asset of DogeCoin, and helps differentiate it in the sea of ever expanding altcoins.


EDIT: PS.
To Spoetnik, you say that the community of DogeCoin is only flashmining and bragging about how much money they have. That might be true of some on this board, but the same can be said for all coins, even BTC. But if you look at Reddit, or in the media coverage you so dislike, you will see that it also helped send the Jamaican Bobsleigh team, and an Indian Athlete, to the Olympics this year.
