Hi guys! I just want to share that both I and my father are recovering well from a series of accidents/illnesses - not covid related, but still life-threatening. I hope the worst is behind us, although my father will need several more months for a full recovery. It is still hard for me to collect my thoughts and share all events here, but may be I will do it one day.

glad to hear youre doing better. may things continue to heal well.

just focus on you and yours. everything else is secondary.

You know you're right...perhaps you should never ever leave your house again.

Do society a favor.



well personally i have no problem bringing selected parts of outside world in to my private retreat instead. just airlift stuff in as needed; rock concerts, sottish highland games, baja races. you know the standard stuff.

works for me..

TIL gravity influences the price UP and cheap window shades send the price DOWN

got it

Right you are. Unless there's a condenser holding just enough charge to keep something still on for minutes. Or hours.

yeah supercaps are getting more and more common (like in consumer SSDs etc) so its gonna be pretty cheap and easy to include in even base model phones and such.

are there any situations when having battery in, but phone off can affect anything?
A genuine question.

if the battery is in, some part of the phone is on, even if its just something that looks for the power button to be pressed. who knows what else could be powered when the battery is in it but "dormant" (idle) waiting for some trigger.

no battery is the only way to be sure its really, really off instead of some kind of "soft" off mode.

Damn right I do. It's none of anyone's business if my wallets are lost or it's just my choice to not touch them.

The only problem with that unspendable utxos impose a burden on the bitcoin network (the rest of us). The only way to deal with that is by cleaning out the utxo set periodically.

Quote
I would argue that the nearly 400GB of block data would be a better point to argue from. Block data grows linearly while UTXO doesn't necessarily have the same growth.

yeah that really needs to be looked at because BTC. Let alone ten times that.

400 gb? geeze you should see my steam folders size.

i run a full unpruned node, gave it a 500 gb ssd, which will last until a 1tb ssd is the price of dirt..

anyway i like my old UTXOs thank you. and the network will still have them ready for me years from now. thats how bitcoin works.

Love him or hate him, Jbear is a very interesting individual. He and I had several long discussions on music and vintage musical gear. He owns some gear used by Joe Walsh, Elton John, Rick Derringer, Billy Joel. and Michael Jackson.

I won't go into details because he told me this privately.

Yeah I chatted a couple times in this realm as well... I wrote him privately after breaking down and buying a piece of Behringer gear and falling in love with it (Wing) to my great surprise.

The only piece of gear I own with anything like a pedigree is a used mic I paid 100$ for that was supposedly tried out on a J-Lo track and rejected. lol.

As I said I hope he's OK and just got tired of being picked on for BSV...

yeah i hope he and his are ok too. but he always struck me as someone who covers their bases well. very knowledgeable on a variety of subjects. definitely miss him..

Wow, that is really nasty. It can really go in any direction. MA200 can move down or MA50 can move up. Now it's just a question of which player does what.
I'm assuming the worst. And pull out my network cable...

COWARD!! come BACK

it is traditional around here to celebrate 85% loses dips with toasts and memes.

Hello friends! I haven't written for a month because a series of unfortunate accidents which happened to my father during our vacation. His life was in a great danger and it is not over yet. I experienced a big shock and I still haven't completely come out of it. May God save us! I have the support of my faithful friends who have helped us tremendously and continue to do so. Regarding Bitcoin, I am not as happy as before, of course. But when I have a chance, I continue to buy. I will perhaps write more in a few weeks. Stay strong and hodl as long as possible!

sorry to hear that.. best wishes and prayers for your dad and very glad for your friends support and faithfulness.

I'd think if a mirror breaks down, all you have to do is place a fresh disk where the failing one was? That's the whole point of mirroring, or am I missing something?

I think software mirroring (by RAID or other system) is better, since the details can be reproduced easily on different processing hardware.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong.

i know when i ran mirrored 1 TB spinner drives when one tossed errors and failed the other kept on trucking. threw another 1 TB drive in (wasnt an exact match) and i had to run something in the built in raid bios (intel) and the mirror was back in raid 1 mode. this was on a Z97 intel board on windows.

so for sure a single drive from a mirror runs fine alone. i just had drive failure notices popping up in logs and status icons till i fixed it.

On another note, I am waiting on 3 new 1TB SSD drives and a dedicated UPS. Will be running them in RAID 1 with one spare, not much progress for now. box setup will be i5 (8th Gen) and 16GB RAM

cAPSLOCK, did you have your bitcoind running on the same box as lnd or they are separate?

I am planning on running this on Linux not Windows. I haven't had a full time linux box in the house since Slackware 13.37.... hmm just notice Slackware last major release was 2016...


Real servers run real UNIX (or Linux).
I would reconsider the SSD and use spinning discs. SSD's are shitty when it comes to data recovery and "disk crashes". i would also change the drive firmware to less frequent head parking values, to minimize wear on the drives. Lately, espicially since introduction of "green drives", manufacturers try to save power by parking heads in much shorter intervals.

jBreher would know a lot more about that, iirc.

three SSDs in raid 1 with a hot spare.. seems pretty solid setup to me but im no expert.

as far as data recovery with lightning wouldnt that be useless anyway? as by the time you could recover the lightning data the channel would be closed on the other end anyway. wouldnt it? not too familiar with lightning.

You should know that no one else has the mind capable of crunching the numbers that Proudhon does. He is a god among mathematicians.

That is true. People say Niels Bohr and Max Planck are the founding fathers of quantum physics but I know better. I know it was Proudhon.

pretty sure proudhon was also involved with the discovery of imaginary numbers too.

man if a 55% dip scares you, well you are in for a rough time.

so just strap in, get used to it and enjoy the ride.
