Sure, I agree you shouldn't remove any info! Maybe just find some CSS tricks to avoid the collisions (like allowing a line break in the data/time filed). Also, you could: - replace "hours" with "h" "minutes" with "m" and "seconds" with "s" in round duration - remove the 2 last digits from round reward (they seem to always be zeros) - remove "0 confirms" when a block is marked as orphaned I think just those would be enough to make it look good on my narrow left screen (yeah, I keep my browsers on my worst screen, I save the 21.5" 1080p for development ).

Yes, I filed the DMCA takedown. If you have a problem with that, that's your problem for supporting plagerism and copyright infringement. The MIT license is not very hard to comply with. It has a single requirement: maintain the copyright line(s) and license text as-is. It is impossible to "accidentally" violate as RealSolid is supposedly claiming. Ok, I guess that more than makes it up for the bad karma you got from blowing that other coin a few days ago.

I think you miss the whole point, all the other attacks were done by users with their own personal(or rented) resources while luke-joker used the resources of his pool which doesnt belong to him unless he asked every user mining there if they consent to what he is doing. Yup, that's pretty much the issue here. Attacking a chain, okay that's not nice but we're getting used to that. But hijacking other people's resources (misusing their trust) to do so, that's ****ing ***. I hope his rotten pool gets as deserted as it deserves.

A quick update w/ the newer binaries for windows 64bit. I tested them on a BD FX4100 @ stock speeds and it now gets 4.55kh/s / thread. Quite an improvement! =) Before, I got maybe 2.3kh/s / thread.
Same impressive increase for me: with the version published around December 20 I got like 3.6-3.8kh/s, now I'm at 5.0-5.1kh/s, on a P2X4 955 @ 3.6GHz (all that being per thread, of course). Going to try that on my Linux C2D E6550 ASAP... Edit: no improvement for the C2DE6550. Well, this restored the AMD/Intel balance then

I tried to access from a work pc, and i guess it being block by websense, i able able to access from my android phone. Work networks tend to block funky ports. Try setting up some SSH tunnel over port 443 (but don't blame me if your IT police comes to spank you ).

Maybe it is just because I am paying attention to my miner today, but there seem to be all sorts of stability issues. Cgminer keeps having communication issues. Is anybody else noticing this?
Indeed, I have like 2% reject and my node keeps falling back to Deepbit quite regularly (in my Deepbit stats I've got shares in like half the blocks). Looks like there's been a downtime a couple hours ago, too. But, well, as long as you've got a backup pool, 2% of rejected shares isn't too much of an issue since we get 110% of what's left.

The tight coupling is "bad" but acceptable for a proof of concept. However IMHO today the daemon and client should be two completely different projects. Sadly the legacy of that tight coupling is w/ us today and it increases the innovation and development cost. Indeed, I understand it can be troublesome later, but at least it prevents BTC from being headless like NMC...

Yeah there is one. It's pretty minimalistic, but there's shares, rejected shares, account balance, a button to request payment and a form to change your password.

Just has to pursued Norton Antivirus that v2.1.0 isn't a Trojan :/
Same here with AVG and cgminer 2.0.6... Looks like the antivirus guys drank too much on Xmas. The drop was after a restart (the whole previous day it was 84Mhash). It's a Radeon HD 4830, mining at 72C. Just had the same issue after restarting my miner: one of the GPU would barely mine, the other would mine around 250 MHs vs the usual 380. Turned out the auto-intensity was screwing up, forcing it manually to 8 fixed the drop (and even increased hashrate above what I was used to). PC feels a bit laggy though now Going to try 2.1.0...

Alright, I was being sarcastic as I didn't buy the story Standard electrical heater: in the 1000W Standard CPU: in the 60-120W => 10 servers = about 1 standard electrical heater So yeah, 40 servers (I think that's one of the figures from the article) is definitely a possibility to heat a small house in a temperate climate. Might be a bit noisy though.

Wuala is hardly better than Dropbox and it's not even getting close to Ubuntu One for that matter.. Depends how much you value your privacy. I don't know about Ubuntu One, but Dropbox technically has access to all the files you upload to them, while Wuala encrypts them on your PC so they can't read what you store on their servers. And you can't pay for storage with BTC @ Dropbox It's a bit hard to find though, so here it is: http://wuala.com/en/bitcoin

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Optimized cpu-version - LTC/FBX/TBX - what's about merged mining of these 3?
|

In my opinion, value is determined by market factors, namely supply and demand. Precisely, supply and demand. In the case of merged mining we are supplying people with coins that they don't want. What will they do? Either exchange them all against coins they do want ("100-0" case), or if that new "unwanted" coin isn't too bad they might just adopt it and balance the demand they'd have only over one coin between the two of them (50-50 case). Given this, cheap or free production will not cause a large increase in supply, since the supply is controlled by other factors, thus the value won't change. Indeed I think I've been a bit inaccurate: a more accurate statement is that the global value people get from mining both coins during the same time remains the same. Still that doesn't change the part about: - the same as before, if coin A and coin B had the same value/diff ratio at the beginning, - or lower for someone who was mining the coin with the best value/diff ratio - or higher for someone who was mining the lowest value/diff ratio I have to admit this is giving me a headache now, maybe because it's getting late there ^^ Anyway, as I said, I don't care that much about LTC and I can't prevent someone from implementing merged mining, in which case it would be more profitable to merged mine than not to do it (which is why merged mining can't really fail to be a success in terms of adoption).
