I would like to put this back online adding some sort of "time machine" feature so that you can select a date (say, January 2012) and surf the forum at that time. I don't think I have posts after 2015 archived but it wouldn't matter as it's all scams nowadays and the SNR is just terrible.

Yeah, but a business venture is supposed to account for cancellations/refunds when there are manufacturing delays. You can't have your Customers having all the downside where literally time is money.

Absolutely. And it looks like they will be doing it shortly, so I don't see a problem with it. Your customers are not facing any more downside than you are, they preordered and changed their mind, they can wait some time before getting their money back independently of time being money due to their gambling addiction. I wait a couple of months all the time for my own refunds. I sometimes even process refunds and never had anyone complaining if it wasn't done right away because of time being money. They were just happy they got their money back. Some of those refunds had been sitting on a shelf for a good couple of months before I got to them, same story as here, I was busy with more important things.

Also, I'm assuming we are talking about 3 weeks here, two months would be getting a bit much. I honestly have no idea.

Think of this  - as customers we are only considered when we have paid. We do not say "sorry i will pay in 2-3 weeks or may be later when and if I get paid, may be, but please send the goods today".

From my point of view, you, and customers asking for refunds after their hardware has been manufactured in general, are a liability. When manufacturing something you need to part with your money months before having hardware in hand. You most likely will try to part with only as much money as it is going to end up making you money, so you will use customer preorders to gauge how many units need to be in the batch. A customer asking for a refund after the order is sent to the CM and before it is delivered creates a cashflow problem. It's easy to see how that problem could become very critical if you don't have deep pockets and if you can't swiftly resell the cancelled units.

5 years later and hashfast-like companies are still operating. That's disgusting, I'm sorry to hear that, server.

Your 9P is probably $3000, you could buy 2-3x the luts for pipelines on smaller chips for that...

Hey GPUHoarder, thanks for the insightful posts. What chips would you use with 2-3x the LUTs for the same cost? Wouldn't smaller chips have a much lower frequency too? Downloading a table from Digikey the best I can get is a lattice LFE5U-85F-6BG554C; $0.4/kLUT, probably 0.60 by the time you add board assembly power etc. Without the 6-inputs LUT and at a much lower frequency. Reballed Virtex chips maybe?

First post in some time.

I've spent the day looking at overpriced FPGAs and randomly ended up in this forum, an old love affair of mine, where I see chips digikey markets for 40k sold at 3k.

I'm not sure what is more crazy between what happened to this place in the last couple of years, how I missed out on all of it, Xilinx's margins on chips, the 90%+ discounts, 2112's memorable posts in this thread (I just binge-read all of it), getting paypal on the phone in 4 hours on a Saturday, or anything else really. It was a fun read, thank you.

I haven't followed this forum in like forever, so I'm not sure about whatever or not, apart from the other two trolls I remember about, your posts usually have rationale in them, but it's sad you agreeing with them, ImI. Among other things, the petitioners petitioned for chapter 7, not 11. HashCrap then waited until the last day to ask for a chapter 11 conversion, so that they could start sucking whatever was left out of the dead corpse. But yes, the scammers are not at fault, it's the petitioners. Jeez. Sad.

Well, it looks like SF's DA learned something about preorders and false advertising after all:

It only means that one of the scammers will have to return a payment and not get a windfall out of it as he liked to put it. I would be surprised if even part of that money found it's way back to the customers.

If anyone is able, would they please do us the courtesy of sharing any updates or news, if any? Thanks!

I would also like to know.

I am interested in whether the project is still running
I see a working read-only archive but not aware of what components are functioning and which are defunct.

The read only archive is the only thing left, I was hoping to generate interest to have people post in the "local" categories, but I think that bitcoin.com/bitco.in are already funnelling the users interested in a better forum and even if they are not doing a perfect job it's still probably a bad idea to compete.

If anyone is interested in anything else/has any ideas please just let me know.

These negotiations resulted in a Statement of Work (“SOW”) agreement, executed on July 1, 2013. Id. at ¶ 26. According to that agreement, the design for the G1 chip was not scheduled to “tape-out,” or be completed, until September 15, 2013, at the earliest. Id. Barber and deCastro were also informed by Uniquify that the time between “tape-out” of the G1 chip and a finished product would exceed two months, even under an expedited production schedule. Id. Based on that timeline, the HashFast Entities were aware they would not be able to provide Baby Jets to customers until mid- November, 2013. Id. at ¶ 27.

HashFast's Golden Nonce GN ASIC successfully taped-out yesterday, Wednesday the 28th, and has been released for 28nm fabrication to a well-known, leading-edge foundry.  More details will follow in next week's joint press release.

ma ci sono prove di qualche scam di questo utente? Sinceramente vedo molto accanimento...forse perche tiene la % piu' bassa degli altri?
Io ho comprato e mi sono trovato davvero bene...

Questo utente ha passato tutto il primo mese a scrivere completo nonsenso, rispondersi da solo, attaccare tutti. Poi ha deciso di iniziare a vendere. E' la ricetta per il disastro. Come ho gia' detto, attendero' tranquillo sulla riva del fiume.

What means something in a language can be nonsense to another.
I'm bilingual. Yours is utter nonsense.

You are just building trust to scam later on. I will watch that happen from the sidelines.

Anyone have this information?
Why don't you go finding this information out in the sea of very special knowledge you must have attained from for every other of your posts?

Cyperdoc feels innocent today:

i am in a dispute with Hashfast so i can't talk too many details but in this country, one is normally considered innocent until proven guilty and i deny all their allegations and expect to prevail. i've never dealt directly with him in any financial tx yet he's issued a negative rating acting like i have which he will willingly remove contingent on me giving him money i rightfully earned and isn't his.

This guy posted nonsense for weeks in the Italian forum and now is here begging for people to send first.

Where is my popcorn gif?

I won't discuss with an unnamed idiot comparing himself and his desire of privacy to Satoshis'. You simply don't deserve one.
