Yesss!(fist pumps)  He played the wasting computer resources card.  This means you can point out how much energy(aka money, computer resources, ect.) PayPal is wasting trying to keep his fiat money safe.  

Here are two other things I would mention:

1 Research and point out some security problems with PayPal.(Don't mention decentralized, most people love government control and will just think your a nut.)

2 Point out Bitcoin is in the Guineas Book of World Records.(This will hopefully make him realize this is actually something to consider and not just some nutty idea.

P.S. Define a zero-day exploit.

Have you put any addnode commands in your bitcoin.conf file?  They can really speed up the connection process.

Thanks, I can't believe I didn't make the connection. Embarrassed  I actually considered making venison jerky like that, but I used a dehydrator instead. Cheesy

in windows 7 how to kill guiminer and start again every half hour?

thanks

just to avoid the hanging for whatever reason

A more in-depth instruction set(there were 6 posts while I wrote this but I hope it stills helps)

I ran into the same problem and ended up using a combination of task scheduler and a .bat file to do it.

Step 1: Writing the .bat file.

1-a: To write a .bat file you need to have file extensions enabled.  You can enable file extensions by going to the view tab of folder options(If you can't find folder options just search it) and deselecting the hide known file extensions check box.

1-b: Now go to My documents, create a notepad file, and put this code in it.
Code:
@ping 127.0.0.1 -n 5 -w 1000> nul

rem ---------------use the line below this to set the path--------------
cd "C:\guiminer"

Taskkill /F /IM guiminer.exe /T

start guiminer.exe
Then adjust the path to the location of your guiminer file(make sure it's set to the FILE which contains the application DO NOT set the path to the application)

1-c: Then save the file and go back to My documents.  Locate the file and change the name and extension to guiminer-restart.bat

Step 2: Setting up task scheduler

2-a: To find task scheduler just search it.  Once you have it open select create a task.

2-b: Task scheduler is fairly self-explanatory you just have to set the task to run every half-hour after start-up in the trigger and run the .bat file as the action.

2-c: Task scheduler has also has quite a few options which are not mandatory take a few minutes to see if you want to use any of them.

Once you've done this just restart your computer and guiminer should start upon boot and restart every half-hour.  If you have any questions let me know and I will do the best I can to help you.

111. When you build your own mining rig powered hot-tub so you can relax after a stressful day of watching the price of BTC swing up and down.

Wow that's a great idea - an outdoor hot-tub and water-cool all your rigs with the hot-tub water, pipe it in from outside!

Building now, brb.

Post your pics when you finish it. Grin Wink

I'm currently unable to mine with either useast or uswest. What's up?

Same problem here. Pool's down?

Down for me, too. Pool and website.

My miners can't connect either, I wonder what is going on. Huh  The website is working for me but a bit slow.  My miner stats show my miners are working and the site is updating, yet I'm positive my miner is not working.

Just asking, are you feeling positive having lost half your coins?

trollish... but I had the same thought.

On the bright side, it's 49% more than 0 which is what he thought he had.
49% more than 0 is 0 Cheesy
49% is 49% more than 0%
0 * 1.49 = 0

Let's say we have 100 bitcoins.

0% of those bitcoins is 0 bitcoins.

49% more than 0 bitcoins is still 0 bitcoins. You don't simply "add" percentages together.

So are you saying 2% is not one percent more than 1%?
49% of 100 = 49 and 0% of 100 = 0 (Given)
49% + 0% = 49 + 0(If a = b then a + c = b + c)*
49% can be added to 0%(If 49 can be added to 0 and 49% + 0% = 49 + 0, then 49% + 0% is a valid equation.

This direct proof states %s can be added.  The flaw in your logic is in sentence three (49% more than 0 bitcoins is still 0 bitcoins.) 49% (this is 49% of 100 thus it equals 49) more than 0 is 49 bitcoins.

*basically this states you can replace something in an equation with something of equal value and the equation will still hold true.



Haarhaarhaarhaaarr!!!!!

I don't get it. Undecided

Thank you for shedding some light this issue Ricochet. Smiley

How long have you been on this forum?  You obliviously have read no small amount of posts and I remember seeing you photo when I first became a member months ago.

This seems so simple that I would immediately think it's a horrible idea, but I can't think of a way to easily get around it and it would stop a lot of old trojans. Awesome idea quattro! Grin(I can't wait to see what someone who knows what he's doing says) Wink
479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin2Cash having problems? on: August 07, 2011, 10:21:15 PM
This is probably not up to date but I thought bitcoin4cash and bitcoin2cash were both run by the same person and the sites basically worked together as a way to change BTC into PayPal and vise versa.  Before setting up the site the owner told paypal what he was planning on doing and paypal either gave him to go-ahead or didn't respond.  About two months later paypal shut his account down because his site supposedly violated some odd rule.  

P.S. Oops! Big mistake on my part, I believe the site I'm referring to is coincard and its alternate not bitcoin2cash and bitcoin4cash.

I'm lost, I thought Bitcoin2Cash had gone offline because PayPal shut down the sites account.  What am I missing here? Huh
