http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/dreams-of-ray-bradbury-ten-predictions-that-came-true/2012/06/06/gJQAqbs9IV_story.html

Predicted ATMs and, interestingly, popularized the phrase "butterfly effect."  Very apropos.  I would be surprised if he were not aware of Bitcoin.

Well, I wouldn't be so sure.

Quote from: BBC
For years, Bradbury tried to prevent the publication of Fahrenheit 451 as an e-book. He told the New York times that electronic books "smell like burned fuel" and called the internet "a big distraction".

"It's meaningless; it's not real. It's in the air somewhere," he said.

In any case, Bradbury was for me, as for Bruno, one of my all-time favorite science fiction authors.

He wrote fiction that not only engaged you but forced you to question cultural protocols, the future, and at times the foundations of society itself.

RIP.

And we're back.
Brief vacation for me, first one in a long time.
Anyways I'm still hopelessly stuck. I ran the fixer, everything is up to date.
Made the changes and the rig slows to a halt every 20 or so seconds and still no BFL mining.

Darn. Hope you enjoyed your vacation at least.

P.S. I will be sending 2 BTC to lightlord and 2 BTC to BinaryMage for the help thus far.
[...]
Please post addresses so I can publicly send BTC to you both.

Thanks, I'll do my best. You can send any bounties to 12yGyv6gR6y3FVizt7FjRgYYadG3xmwY9F.

It seems like it's getting confused seeing the pool info in the bamt.conf as well as in the pools file. Maybe I'll try commenting out the pools in the pools file and see if that helps with the hangups.

Good idea. Did this prove fruitful at all?

Still getting that error
Code:
cgminer api failed
when I restart mining processes.

If the above didn't fix it, I'm pretty stumped, the syntax is perfectly correct AFAIK.

Let's try a different approach. Run
Code:
crontab -e
and add the following to the end of the file, replacing the path with the actual path to the CGminer executable you installed:

Code:
@reboot /absolute/path/to/cgminer -o http://gpumax.com:8332 -u user -p pass -I 9 --failover-only -G -S /dev/ttyUSB0

This should start CGminer, running the Single, every boot. (Though not in sync with BAMT's mining scripts) EDIT: Syntax error, fixed. Make sure you're using the above.

Not the ideal solution, but it should at least be a functional temporary workaround and give us more troubleshooting information.

Ah, but Pirate doesn't hold your funds hostage. lol

Notable difference there. Wink

0.29 USD per share or 0.29 BTC per share? Vastly different things. 0.29 USD would be an excellent price.

Are you offering pre-orders?

Wow! That's a typo.  0.29 BTC/share

I wasn't planning on taking pre-orders, but I will consider it.

You might want to update your OP and remove the $ sign then. Lots of people will only read the OP. Wink

I have 6,325 BTC and 53,244.35 USD in bitcoinica. I will join forces with AurumXchange. I want MTGOX CODES for each TODAY or I will prosecute to the full extent of the law.

Maria.

Dang, that's no fun. Good luck...
266  Economy / Securities / Re: OptionCentre.com - now accepting bitcoin on: June 07, 2012, 03:15:25 AM
And this has to do with securities how?

Well... usually options are considered securities. 

But I see why you ask, it's atypical for this forum.  More likely belongs in Services, as it's just a site that now takes bitcoin. 

Sorry, I should have clarified, I was referring to the "Securities" sub-forum:

Quote
This section is for topics about individual Bitcoin bonds, stocks, etc. Topics about exchange sites which deal in securities should go in the top-level Marketplace section.

Unless they're offering stock, seems like it would fall under the category of "exchange site" to me.

Still looking, it is a very small project.
Hit me up guys.

More information please.

"distributed Bitcoin miners"? That could mean any number of things. Do you just want a frontend, or will you also need a backend? Do you want it in any specific language? Would the programmer be working with solely you or a team?

You really have to shut this guy up..  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol2STodQCQI&feature=plcp

He is making you look stupid, as well as himself (which seems par for him anyways).

He is calling YOU the largest farm currently in existence etc, etc.

If you are happy being associated with this scammer, great....

If that's the only "PR fiasco" Diablo has to deal with, he's looking quite dandy. Deathbylollipop's videos are just hilarious. I really doubt anyone pays serious attention.

271  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] Weighted average price for a 1 MH/s bond is below 30 bitcents on: June 07, 2012, 12:26:54 AM
Interesting and a subject dear to my heart.  Probably the prices should be below 30 bitcents as we have moved away from the stable $5 prices.

All that matters is difficulty.

If BTC price goes up then the output of a mining stock is worth more, it cancels.

Yes, but the price you would pay for equivalent mining hardware (in BTC) goes down, devaluing the bond in a certain sense.

And about time. I was getting rather bored with all the stagnancy. Need some high derivatives of the price graph to liven up my day.

274  Economy / Securities / Re: [GLBSE] BlazrBond - 101% PPS 0.15Mhash mining bond with daily dividends on: June 06, 2012, 03:45:13 AM
Price seems a little on the high side. 0.1515 MH/s @ 0.05 BTC equates to 1 MH/s @ 0.330033 BTC. IIRC the highest initial IPO price per MH/s for a bond (excluding PureMining's IPO, which barely sold) was 0.30 BTC for YABMC. You might consider lowering the price slightly, perhaps to 0.04 - 0.045 BTC.
275  Economy / Securities / Re: The Most Competitive Mining Bond - Synergy [GLBSE] on: June 04, 2012, 03:18:58 PM
Synergy will be one of the most competitively priced mining bonds on the market.
I cannot give information regarding bond prices, because I am not selling them.
How can you claim to be the most competitively priced mining bond on the market when you are not setting the price?

IANAL, but I think "one of the" and "competitively priced" make the statement meaningless in the concrete sense. Just a wee bit of advertising.

What you're saying is perfectly true.  It just has absolutely nothing to do with my point. 

Theft is theft.  If you're okay with it, to whatever degree, it's on you, not me.

M

I'd like to be shown where I indicated I approved of the three particular methods you mentioned.

In fact, I stated "I don't necessarily disagree with you."

You can make allegations of theft and insults upon my morality all you want, it won't lend validity to your arguments.

I'd like to see where I accused you of theft? Smiley

Quote
My point is simply that analogies are not a convincing method of argument. I'm wondering if you have reasoning that is not based on analogy, and if so whether you would be willing to share it.

Theft is wrong.  If you, or anyone else doesn't think that, typing until my fingers hurt won't change a thing.

The analogies were to get people to think about what they are doing.  Of course you may argue my analogies are flawed, and that's your privilege.  Doesn't mean you're right, but you can still argue it.

M




Apparently I need to clarify.

Can you explain why you consider those three methods/actions to be theft?

I'm not trying to insult your analogies, I'm not stating I approve any of those methods/actions, and I am most certainly not stating that I approve of theft. (I am staunchly against it.) I would just like to hear your argument in order to enhance my viewpoint.

Look, I'm trying to learn here. You sound like you have quite a bit of conviction, and you're making some allegations I haven't heard before. I would like to hear your rationale in a non-analogous form.

If that isn't clear, my apologies, but I'm not sure how much clearer I can get...

Thanks, that's reassuring.

Good luck in your future ventures Liberty Payout. Hopefully you and whomever you deal with will be able to come to a better understanding over what identity verification is required.

BTC guy, please do not use "we". Take responsibility for and make statements about your own actions, not the actions of others.

nobody thinks you're a scammer yet as there is no proof.

i dont need proof i think he is scam

That's wonderful. Your conviction is just astounding.

Lulwat wrote boldly in red SCAMMER ALERT. The point of the matter is I don't want my ID circulating on the web. I could snap a picture of the whole thing, I dont want to. If I were a scammer, yea, I could just photoshop some shit as well. I don't want my real ID on the web and I'm not interested in posting fake shit.

I do not think what he did was prudent, but it wasn't an accusation. The differentiation is important.

If you do not want to provide ID, how do you propose to verify your validity beyond a reasonable doubt? Consider this a criminal court; treat it as such, and you'll do just fine.
