I will never have to, you get your kids around that type of an atmosphere, you are going to desensitize them. I make my kids polite, generous, loving people. They have a healthy fear of anything that would get them into a jail cell, even overnight.

My son is 4, he is one of those kids that is like a bull in a china shop. He plows through because he is so big and sometimes forgets about his size compared to other kids his age.
But his punishments are almost always time out (stand in the corner with hands in the air) or talk to him about the consequences until he tears up about hurting other people or breaking stuff or whatever he did. Now if he decides to lie about hitting or doing something bad, that is when he gets spanked.
I make lying about the situation worse than any other punishment since I want to always be sure he is being punished properly so the punishment fits the crime kinda concept. So almost 99% of the time he comes to me and tells on himself now, and if he needs a spanking this kid barely feels it anyway hes so huge so its straight up a mental scare tactic at this point. Same with my older daughters, they simply get very freaked out and embarrassed now if I spank them since they do not really earn spankings anymore.
I think the villanizing of spanking over the years has caused a large portion of the kids disrespect for their elders in this upcoming generation. If I ever talked to my parents the way I see people and kids talk to their parents, only 5-10 years younger than me, my mother would punch me in the face. Here is a tip for everyone. Do not curse at your kids. When I see people in walmart or any store with kids and they tell them, " If you do that again I am going to beat the shit out of you. Sit your ass down!" Don't be surprised when your kids turn to you and say something like, "Damn it momma, I didn't do anything to deserve that shit, stop fucking hitting me!"

Not sure if this would fall under the miner software section, so going to put a copy of the question there also.
Where can I locate the function in one of the old miners source code to add interface to fpga processing? It would not really matter which one I guess.

where is the part in the code of one of the miners that can be changed for rs232 communication instead of starting processing on cpu/gpu?
The production mining software changes too rapidly for me to understand. You'll probably have to look at some previous version of CGminer or BFGminer, when they were still using serial ports instead of raw USB devices. Besides, the above software is just too complex. Start with something simple like ZTEX's miner or jgarzik's/pooler's cpuminer. Or hack out the signcryption out of eldentyrell's miner working through the JTAG taps. You'll initially want to mine on the CPU in parallel to be able to quicky compare the output from your FPGA with known good results from another source. The running in parallel is a good idea, thanks.

How would a person in theory interface a fpga board into the ltc/btc network? I have a friend who works on vhdl and is toying with making his own fpga and we cant seem to figure out how to get his cyclone III dev kit to interface on the network.

CPC 5.2 GH/s Miner $139.00 5.2 GH/s SHA256 Bitcoin Miner Power consumption 70W Dual boot with Windows and Linux Configured with popular mining software
This is my favorite one. $139, dual boot configured, so you get a windows license too (windows 7 probably right) !!! Gotta love the specific #s 5.21857238 GH/s At least it's an obvious scam. It'd suck if they had made it more believable, but that gets back to why scams are sometimes intentionally bad in order to select the biggest suckers who will follow through So you must get 8 5970s included in the rig lol

I think she puts lots of thought into her trolling, I do not dispute that. I simply look at her username, PR, she represents a company in all she does. So propaganda is all she would be spouting unless she gets a puppet account and develops a new account that is not cheering on her exchange.

Perhaps a breakdown for more established alts like ltc, dvc maybe setup a requirement of having been launched for at least a year. Then have within each ltc/dvc/whatever Support, stickies, marketplace etc.
