I'm gonna try to concentrate on the energy-saving/green angle of NXT over the next few weeks, more on that later, I hope.

On the RaspPiSolars.....I'm a big fan of ebereon and davethetrousers work here. Its fooking brilliant, lads.
We definitely need some RPSes at any show/conference we attend. Have you guys got in touch with each other?
And have u got some funding/promises of funding ?
If I was even slightly NXT-rich, i'd throw lots in your direction.

BUT: I don't like the swarming idea very much. As originally proposed, it was 30-50 guys swarming a BTC conference in the name of NXT.
It could work at an event for the general public, but I think that it will only succeed in annoying people at a more techie/professional conference.

We need quality people at the BTC conferences (as Miami showed, I think) who can actually engage with serious crypto-business types, not just a lot of people with no/little in-depth knowledge shouting that NXT is da best.  

That pic looks very unhappy.....it's a real possibilty that the FCs do have some actual issues.
We've all seen how he/it/whatever flips between almost sane and obviously intellligent(ish) to complete lunatic idiot.
I'd almost feel sorry for him, if he wasn't so much trouble for everyone.  

EDIT:
carlos quote: Venture - Covers ideas and principles of how to make a buck in an increasingly deflationary world.

If u do invest in NEX, make sure u ask the FCs for their corporate info, as they claim to be a Delaware corporation, it would be nice to see some info about their corporate activities.........

And there is a very long history of the FCs investor threads being full of very recently created accounts with almost no activity that somehow find their way to the FC and offer him lots of money for no real reason.
Sock puppets, or are the FCs a new Messiah?

I like to use poetry as a turing test: so throw down an original limerick/haiku/sonnet or whatever and I'll declare u human.

We don't need to have all humans on the same side, just the guys who are trying to build something genuine vs the assholes who can only criticise and/or rip people off.

TBH; I've got no definite idea which side of the fence eMunie (and Dan etc) fall on, but I got the impression that eMunie is a genuine effort.

I'm a fairly rabid NXT supporter (putting it mildly), we are a direct(ish) competitor to eMunie in the 2nd generation crypto space and we have had more than our fair share of attacks over the last 2 months, ranging from common trolling, FUD, and lies all the way up to DDos attacks on our infrastucture and directed hacking attempts against everything even slightly NXT related.  Not to mention the great sock puppet army......

So I can have some sympathy for eMunie right now. Good luck....

Have u guys got a TL:DR version of the story so far? Too lazy to read full thread.

Not being funny, but have u installed/updated Java?

If u have then:

java -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar start.jar

or

java -jar start.jar

will do the trick

There is sometimes a problem with Java not being recognised by later Win versions, even after installation:

https://forums.bukkit.org/threads/how-to-fix-java-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-command-or-external-command.139263/

so try the above , reboot and try to start NRS again.

"Blimey, guv, you talking to me ?"
<Looks around suspiciously>
"A fine gennulman like yourself wouldn't be needin' no funding from the likes of my 'umble self, surely?"
<Runs down nearby alley, jumps fence and is gone>

Great point...for lots of not-so-rich folks, smartphone is the only internet access they can get to on a regular basis.

We need to rattle a whale a little bit.....I get the feeling from Miami that NXT got some really effective exposure there, and the direct connection to the wider crypto-business community is gonna be invaluable over the long term. I think that we should make conferences one of the first marketing priorities for right now.

Advertising to a wider audience can wait for a month or even 6, when we have an absolutely rock solid client(s) that Joe Public can use and a range of advanced features in addition to the "use as money" feature of every other alt-coin.

So, I say, conferences, Yay!

And I say yay to Ebereons solar RaspPi as well. If we have a booth, we need one of those running on it. Eb came up with a prototype price of €215 per fully set-up unit.
If Eb can commit to making some more, can we give him some cash for them?
Maybe he can start a RaspPiSolar factory......
Ideas: Custom engraved RS enclosure, NXT logo....maybe a "forging in progress" LED  

I'm going to put up a Berlin conference thread on nextcoin.org, maybe we eurotrash can use that as a place to post(or repost) all Euro conference info as we run up to the Berlin event?
And then over to Amsterdam.....

I've asked for a speaker slot or at least panel slots for NXT at Amsterdam, haven't heard back yet.
Who would be willing to deliver a talk or participate on panels for either A'dam or Berlin?

And don't look at me....I'm good at arguing, not so hot on the precise technical details.

Thx, Achim. Now all we need is an FC or two...

and shiny.........i like it, going to search for more.

Yep, in at nr 2 spot...time for some Frictionless fun...

Oh, wait, I'm on his iggy list......EvilDave is sad.
He wants to play, but his friend FC can not hear him......oh ,well.

FC calls it putting me on his ignore list, I call it winning the argument.

<finger up> Eat me, FC !

FC can't hear me (me ignored by FC), but I have no bloody idea why his thread is locked, and I want to know why myself...i was having fun there.

Yeah, i want to know about that, get an answer out of him, pls, CfB

I'd definitely like to see a titanium:



or maybe stainless steel version:


I like the more industrial feel of these 2 non-precious metals. And everyone has gold or silver....

10 minutes or so...time for a coffee

Yeah, troll kicking rules. Pity I can't play anymore......

@The guys who want to get some proper work done: it really is time to open some more manageable threads on the other forums for specific issues to be discussed in detail, such as promotion, conferences, promo material etc.
This looks like a good moment.....I'll be afk for an hour or two, then I'll be wanting to push a bit forward on the above 3 topics.

Later, have fun with the FCs....don't let it/they/thing annoy u, treat it more as a comedy advertisement for NXT.

Did u delete the old blocks.nxt  and transactions.nxt files ? If not, do so (and the backups), restart, wait for the 5.11 to rebuild blockchain from scatch.

Looks like u've forked, old chap, I'm seeing 30 seconds between 55051 and 55052

Theres a big difference between coincidentally choosing the same name as a product in an entirely seperate market (Lego NXT, for the slow thinkers among us...hi, FC!) and choosing to use the parodic image of a legally savvy celebrity.  Guess which one will get u the most trouble ?

Since I appear to be on the FCs ignore list, maybe we could subtly suggest to him that he renames nex to.......PrinceCoin.

Said it before:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect

and I'll say it again:

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than is accurate. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their ineptitude

The D-K effect explains so much......

Yeah, the FCs are starting to sound both really sad and kinda desperate.
I do wonder why his main nex thread has been shut down. Did someone set the mods on him, or is there something else going on?
