Some results from the simple cache strategy of storing the blocks as they come from the network to disk.

So that is about 23 minutes for (re)processing all the transactions in the first 187062 blocks. I am not sure that the overall data structure is the one to go for, but it certainly saves on bandwidth and speeds up replays and imports. I love it, keep up the good work Jim! |

Hey ridgemont4, if you believe god has a plan for you, why do you look both ways before crossing the street?
Revelation 12:12 "Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short." So, does that mean you look both ways because you believe the truck that could hit you is more powerful than your god?  |

you know, if someone really wanted to have multiple machines, they could simply make their machines connect to gpumax via a single VPN. just sayin.
That isn't so much the problem as pass-throughs. Someone selling a passthough is much less likley to allow someone on their vpn |

How about a setting in my profile so that I can have the client record (log) my play. e..g, to later get a list of all hashes and secrets.
Just from knowing the speed of hands that the player is going at it becomes pretty easy to tell if the player is looking at the verification. Of course, the odds are that 99.998% of us won't be verifying. But if the client might be logging each play, for verification after the fact, then there's no way to tell which players might be scrutinizing the results. Which keeps everyone honest.
I was thinking this would be the perfect use-case for a greasemonkey script. Because honestly, even if we allow you to log the hands client-side, you still have to trust that the javascript we're serving you isn't corrupted. If anyone wants to build such a script, I'd be happy to help support it! I think this would make a great browser extension too, blockchain.info does this to make sure nothing has injected javascript. The bitZino verifier. Actually this opens up a whole world of hand analysis / logging plugins too. |

Lulz..... I must admit ridgemont.... I think you are changing my mind.... I might be starting to believe in god, I was bored this morning and the more I read your posts, the more I am not (bored). I think god sent you to entertain me. I just ran across this one, from another thread, that truly tells you are not afraid of talking about a subject when you obviously know nothing about it (not that we needed any proof). The biggest threat to Bitcoin is its very own creator, who is so much of a coward, he must remain anonymous. For all we know, he could be a United States government insider, hired to create this as some sort of "one world government" experiment. In that case I better be careful, because that's a very powerful group who knows what they're doing. I might be followed by mysterious characters after this post and may end up missing soon.
OK... you may now resume your regularly scheduled trolling.... |

now it makes it all clear, "true Christians" don't go to church on sundays
No they are too busy bombing people that don't believe the same or raping kids..... Just not enough hours in the day. yeah too busy bombing.. right.. as if there are no Christians in Iraq, or other places that are being bombed. Face it, Christianity is everywhere. You just look at the ones who are doing bad to justify your hatefulness. I have several responses: 1. I didn't say that only christians could bomb, they don't hold the exclusive right 2. I don't support the bombinb of Iraq either 3. Believe me I understand that it is everywhere.... People can claim they are christtians all over the place and it is OK, but if someone says anything along the lines of "Ya, me not so much" then they get chastized; "Y U NO BELIVE IN CHRIST?" Disgusting Land of the free* *As long as you are white, male, straight, and believe in god, void otherwise. |

If you follow God, you are keeping the commandment, to love Him and serve Him with all your strength.
Will all your free-will right? Why do fake Christians set aside Sunday? because people like you need something to mock at? Perhaps that's really it.
Honestly I don't need any more ammunition, I really don't. And just to troll: Why do fake Christians set aside Sunday?
Perhaps a distinction without a difference? |

I am just curious as to how much book keeping everyone else does?
For me personality since I do re-use alot of my address like a lot of people on here probably do, I have been keeping an excel spreadsheet with 5 columns. First is the Payee/payer if I do have a name. Second column is their address(es) from where the bitcoins were sent or received. Third column is like a memo and 4th is the transaction id. The last column is amount if negative I know I sent it and if positive I know I have received it.
Hello gweedo, Yes, record keeping is a major PITA especially if multiple addresses are involved. I use spreadsheets to keep track using almost the same setup as you. I have been looking into pywallet, coin control, alternative clients, etc in hopes that they could help with recordkeeping. It would be nice if an app existed where all I had to do was enter the address(es) and all the transactions were presented nicely, without requiring private keys. Maybe it already exists but I haven't found it yet. A blockchain.info wallet does this, they are called watch addresses. Also it let's you spend if you want, it will prompt you for the private key, sign the tx, then destroy its copy. |

Why don't you make up your own mind? You're a big kid now. Aren't you old enough to think for yourself and make your own judgement?
Nope, that is why I go to church on Sundays, so I don't have to think for myself. Being a responsible human and doin the right thing is hard, forealz, it is solo much easier to do what others tell me, then I don't have any responsibility! |

Pirate, your avatar turned 45 degrees counter-clockwise this week. Is this some kind of countdown and when we see your back we know you sailed north with all our coins?  You WIN!. I was waiting for the first person to notice. 50 BTC have been added to your account. Enjoy, That was a bit... random. "Hey, guys! I have so many spare Bitcoins that I'll toss 50 to the lucky winner of the secret-whats-different-about-my-avatar-contest!"  Jelly? |

It's kind of traditional to use a different bitcoin address for each transaction. I've deposited twice and been given the same address to deposit to both times.
I don't care, personally, but maybe some clients would.
Personally I prefer one address for my address book. However having a new address button woul be nice, I think GLBSE does this. |

I just wish you would open an account at US Bank, I have no Chase banks in my state even  I do have a US Bank right across the street from my office though. For small purchases it is easier to WU money to people in -OTC and pay the ~%8 fee, just for convenience. |

Entrapment generally only applies if they are getting you to do something you wouldn't/don't normally do.
Yeah buying 50,000 credit card numbers from the FBI (or from anyone) is a very stupid thing to do, but I wonder if it really worth 40 years in jail. They seem to strongly protect their monetary system. What is the number of years in jail for killing an FBI officer? Is it at least 40 years? I wonder what the judicial system values the most. From what I have seen in the news it is no where what a child rapist gets. |

I also run most of my miner from a separate location with one rig at home, using 2 different IP's  If I'm reading Pirate's message correctly, it says 2 or more IPs. So you should have concern with >2 IPs. You are not reading it correctly: Any account with miners connected on 2 or more IP addresses from different subnets.
2 or more = greater than or equal to 2. Assuming they are on differing subnets that is. |

Stupid tax?
Drunk betting? (new term == DrunkDice?)
I guess you could argue that all negative-sum gambling is a stupid tax, but these progressive bets certainly seem to be. The 1-in-4096 bets are terrible value. Currently the 'Teh Beast' has 21.70 BTC in the pot, costs 0.25 BTC per bet, and pays out about 1 in 4096 bets. So I have a 1 in 4096 chance of multiplying my money by 86.8. That's a 97.88% house edge. I do not know, but I am taking an educated guess, that is still better odds of winning a progressive in vegas. HOWEVER: in vegas I can win on the machine without winning the progressive. |
