I get that, I do.  Just irritates me how people jump on someone that doesn't affect them at all (unless it creates negativity towards bitcoin).
 
I personally avoid people I don't like.  But I don't try to destroy them.

My point was, don't be a dick when you yourselves do similar (albeit perhaps less cost) things.  And yes, I *would* equate bathroom breaks that aren't during your allotted break time as theft.  Something I hear sometimes is "it's the principle" of the thing.  Well so is doing activities during work time *THAT AREN'T WORK*. 
 
I think some of them are just jealous that they can't mine "for free" and so get pissed at others who do.  Why is it sweat off your sack if that kid did it?  He eventually probably would have got caught, but other than bilking his boss, what did it do to the collective members of this forum?
 
And yes, I do take bathroom breaks outside my breaks.  I do make personal phone calls, etc, etc.  But yes, they are all equal, IMO.  It's time/money that your employer is paying you for that you're not doing.

You don't have to hold it 8 hours.  Just max of 2 hours (or maybe 4 depending on your labor rules of your country) until your permitted break.  I've worked production lines before, you hold it, but never had I had to hold it for 8 hours in any job.   And no, if you're not worried about those other activities, you will get a lot of work done during your work day.  You'd be surprised what you can get done if you're not being distracted.

Total BTC generated/day:  0.5
Total BTC sold/day:  0.5
Total BTC held/day:  0

Note that my sell averages out to the same as input (I save up for things I want and then purchase those items, so my net holdings is usually near 0

Ok I think this has gone overboard.  I'm willing to bet that everyone in this thread has "stolen" company resources.  Ever gone to the bathroom outside your allotted break?  That's theft of time.  Used a company phone to make a personal phone call?  Theft of time.  Talk to your coworkers about the NCAA tournament? Read Facebook at work when it's not your job to do so?  Used a sticky note to jot down something that you forgot about to do at home?
 
etc, etc.
 
My 7970 (at home) costs me $0.64 cents per day to mine.   The shit I just took at work 10 minutes ago?  $2.08 of company time.
 
Listen, I get that you don't want bitcoin to get a bad name, and these actions would darken bitcoin's image.  But seriously, I would have just ignored the kid, not get him fired.  That's wrong, IMO.

Incidentally, is it possible to pass out different arguments to different cards on the same machine?    In case I find a cheap card to throw in addition to my existing.

Hmmm, I guess I didn't verify to see if I had downloaded the newest build (I know it's fairly new, but I guess I don't know if it's the newest) 

I believe I'm using -v 1 -w 256  (on a 7970)

Fudge.  I accidentally upgrade to what appears to be 12.3, and I lost 25 MH/s

Ok thanks for the info.  I'll have to wait until we EOL some of the Intel Mac Pros and start looking at their cards.

Oh I just wanted to pull the cards and use them in other machines... I won't be using the G5s for the mining

Anyone currently use any of the Mac Pro G5's (stock) video cards for mining?  Were any of them worth a crap (to mine at like 20+MH/s)?
 
Our company will be ditching about 15 of them, and I've been given permission to cannibalize parts if I want.  And whatever I don't take will be going to a recycling company.  So of course I'll be looking through the video cards to see what the stock cards are/were, and if we've upgraded any of them to something beefier.   I really don't want any of the other stuff out of the G5s, although I am tempted to cannibalize parts to make a "super" G5 out of them all, but most likely I'll just let them go minus any video cards that are worth a crap.
 
We currently have several "mineable" cards still in some newer Macs in production, so I can't take any of those until we end-of-life them. 

 
 
Er, no I didn't.   
 
Thanks!

How many possible bitcoin addresses are there?   Since I don't know the math that takes place, how are they calculated?  If it's by each client, how many possible per person?

And furthermore, I will definitely play hardcore then. 
 
What I'm wondering is, other than these forums, what would be a good way to get out the benefits of bitcoin out to those people who still use forum gold?  I assume going to d2jsp forums would result in a ban or something if you try to use something other than forum gold.  I also assume bans on the battle.net forums if you try to advertise for bitcoin on there. 
 
Or would the marketplace forum here be the best place to sell your crap? 

Sweet!  Just pre-ordered, and starting my download.   

Ya know, I've thought about all sides of this thread, but you gotta realize that no one had any idea that bitcoins would become worth more than perhaps pennies each.
 
I "should" save my bitcoins, and if they ever take off, I'll grumble to myself about not saving.  Honestly, however, I don't feel bad about spending them as I get them now (I'll save a couple at least) since I then have something tangible to show for it, not knowing if they'll explode in value, or crash.  So I do the happy medium and spend like "free" cash (like when you find a $20 in your pocket when you get out your heavy coat for the winter.).

Yes, I will sell items for bitcoin and real money.
 
I'll try the auction house just to try it, but will likely prefer trading in informal means using btc.

Anyone else in here love boating?  If so, what do you have, and what's your favorite water activity?  If you love boating but don't yet own one, what would you like to get (besides a yacht, of course).

I love cruising around with my wife and kids, and then stopping somewhere to jump out and swim around drinking some cold ones.

I'm trying to talk her into a 25 or 30 foot sailboat, but she likes to go fast I guess, 'cause she keeps saying "no"

I can vouch for the user Eveofwar.
 
The item I bought from him arrived in good order and faster than I had thought.
 
Thank you. Eveofwar.

I'm curious about this as well.
