A combination of FUD propaganda and an infomercial for Lookingglass.  The presenters didn't mention the distributed nature of the BTC network at all.  In fact they seemed to imply that BTC=MtGox, a total fallacy.

It's interesting that every mainstream reaction I've seen to BTC is that it's nothing but a tool of criminal activity.

No offense, but weapons sold on the Armory website are exppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeensive.

No offense, but no one's looking for a deal on The Armory.  They're looking to purchase off-the-books firearms.  Those carry a premium.
665  Economy / Marketplace / Re: The Armory - Weapon Marketplace on: August 05, 2012, 08:56:43 PM
Yeah, fact is that bad guys get guns all the time quite easily without paperwork, just cash and carry.  The Armory was basically no help at all.  Hardly anyone was using the site.

Right, but I built it for mac. Is there a command or flag to make oclvanitygen work?
If you have an OpenCL GPU you can use oclvanitygen by adding -d 0 to the command line to use GPU #0 (or whatever)

I don't know anything about Macs.
667  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Want a vanity address? on: August 05, 2012, 08:28:42 PM
There are Windows-built binaries for oclvanitygen floating around the interwebs somewhere.
668  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Want a vanity address? on: August 05, 2012, 08:12:25 PM
Ah, OK.  My cheap XFX 6770 gets around 12-13 Mkey/s with oclvanitygen for your reference.

Coinabul how many hashes/second are you getting?

Europeans are bitching, as always on that matter Smiley

Well, there are plenty of Americans who feel the same way.  You can say good riddance, glad to see them gone etc etc, but some kind of weapons marketplace will start again.  There is a demand for firearms in a free, open marketplace; someone else with a different business model will take the Armory's place eventually.  There's not a thing anyone can really do about it.

I heard Atlas shrugged and that's what got him banned.
672  Economy / Marketplace / Re: The Armory - Weapon Marketplace on: August 05, 2012, 01:27:12 PM
My belief in humanity is restored...
Why?  The Armory wasn't shut down due to some noble anti-gun sentiment.  It's simply a failed business model.
673  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Cartoon/Anime you enjoyed as a kid? on: August 04, 2012, 11:45:01 AM
Astro Boy and Speed Racer.

While on a business trip to Kyoto a few years back I saw statues of Astro Boy (actually "Mighty Atom" in Japan) everywhere.  For those interested Astro Boy's creator, Osamu Tezuka, is considered the father of Manga.

Heh, just took a look at what is offered over there at the armory. Not a whole lot for sale right now. And the prices are (at least to me) outrageous.

Maybe I should put a couple hunderd $ into a gun and sell it for 700 BTC, sounds like a good way to make a crapload of money!

You're paying a premium for an off-the-books firearm.  Sure you can shop around for the best price on, say, a Glock 19 and walk into the gun store and buy one.  But you have to go through the background check, waiting period, etc. so your name and address are in the system now.

I'm not quite sure what you guys are expecting.

That's a thought I have quite often on this forum.

It's pretty clear that some guys are simply using these forums to turn a quick buck in any way possible.

I wish they would of added 7950 and other results. It took me forever to find them

"They" is "us".  It's a wiki so feel free to add/change any information there.

Just buy BTC directly.  It's much more cost-efficient.

I love these gas prices!  its time to start drivin the v8 again  Cheesy

You are showing your age. I remember when gas was under $2 a gallon!

Let me show my age.  I remember when gas was less than $1/gallon.

I also remember when gas first went over $1/gallon:  People were totally freaked out and thought the world was ending.

In the US, I can't think of any legitimate reason to own a unregistered weapon. Possession an unregistered weapon is a huge liability, considering the consequences of getting caught.
There is no gun registration in the US except for fully automatic firearms and the like.

To be successful in any business you have to know your costs.  If your costs are too high you won't make a profit.

This is one of the reasons serious miners look at FPGA rigs instead of GPUs.  They can draw less current for the same hashing power.
