Hi dogie,
How ya been?
Is it possible to setup an S3 through the LAN port on my DeskTop? What would be the settings I set the IP address to in my Local Area Connection.
Is it: 192.168.1.99 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 8.8.8.8
If the above is correct...
Is there an alternate DNS I could use? I can't get it to load on a web page with the above settings.
That's correct for a stock S3. Public Google DNSes are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.. Have you ever connected to this S3? What happened since?

Will there be coupons and anything to compensate the B1 buyers pricing discrepancy with your B2/3 miners?
Why would they do that? If we made an agreement yesterday, any agreement I make today with another party has no impact standing on ours.

We are sorry that the deliver of some of our orders has been delayed.
you are selling time sensitive goods, which actually generates digital money...are you planning to compensate customers, which are facing delays because of you? See the second half of their post. We will give a form notice here regarding to this issue tomorrow morning, Hong Kong Time.

Did anyone get a response from Bitmain recently? They aren't responding to emails last few days.
People sent about 6 trillion emails, then another 36 trillion when they didn't receive a response to the first during the public holiday. It will take time to sort through. Is there an "official" reseller on Amazon or Credit Card accepting website for the S7?
eBay is about your only choice to purchase with credit card via PayPal at a price that isn't too outrageous. I've seen one sell for $1,864 with $26.00 shipping cost. Thanks, are any of them inclusive of the 90 day warranty direct from Bitmain? They'll tell you to go to your reseller for warranty so its a lottery as to if you'll receive service. Buying from Bitmain is the only sure fire way.

I wouldn't be surprised if the engineering staff at that Chinese company doesn't have a real engineering degree but some sort of "work experience" degree after serving in one of those remote technical help call centers.
That was the most ignorant thing I've heard in a while, "they're in a foreign country so they must be dumb and don't know anything". Many of the sales staff have post graduate electronic design degrees. It is very easy for me to pontificate here because I have all the experience required: 1) I helped many very non-technical artists help set up and maintain their "render farm" which is the finishing stage of ray tracing in computer animation. 2) I worked for many years in hardware design and I know how to recognize common hardware faults and properly fix them.
tldr something something computers in the 1990's so clearly know more than ASIC, electrical and software engineers combined. Could throw together an S7/SP50 killer in a weekend /s.

So I bought 4x PSU's from Bitmain at 155 USD each, = 620$. The price declaration on the note from UPS said 680$. So I paid 25% on 680$, instead of 620$.
Is this normal? I'm worried what the declaration of the S7's will be..
Yes they always do that. I believe they get some sort of tax exception for declaring bigger invoice and always refuse to lower invoice. They will request you to lower invoice if you need to send them items back, but will increase your invoice when sending Isn't that just $620 + shipping = $680? Your import duties include shipping.

What a life story, tnx for posting this. It's always good to read a real life story, i believe there is a lot of people ruined cause of government's so we need to be aware of how easily that can happen to everyone. I hope he will be ok in future and that his fellow man will help him like he helped them.
So he had 371,000 bitcoins and didn't particularly profit from it? I guess it takes hindsight to know anything else.

My box was larger than that. A shipped S4 weighs 16kg and the dimensions of the shipping box are 580 x 580 x 270mm. The unpacked unit measures 432mm x 442mm x 133mm.

Very nice work I really like the idea. And the method you used seems pretty sound, as some said a few false positives but I suspect you found a good amount of alt trust with this.
What tool did you use to do this? Did you make it yourself? Can you tell us some about it. I enjoy learning how things work.
Most things are in excel, yes I made it, no can't say too much about it but its based off the trust list data set Theymos published. Can the outputs of your work be a feed into the work tspacepilot did ? ("Statistical Methods for Natural Language Processing"). Trust list identifies possible alt candidates, language processing gives probability ? Yes. This really needs more data sources but they'll most likely have to come from Theymos. If you think this is hit and miss, language processing is 10x worse and would probably match everyone to everyone else. There is also no way to override or manually check it by human eyes as all it gives you is a name and a number.

There has been a few instances where "normal" people names have been changed. It's not really mentioned because I suppose staff doesn't want to be overloaded with requests.
correct. that means this thread is unwanted. and pointless. In what way is this thread pointless again? I have stated it in OP that it is just for reference IMO it is useful infomation. Now many users are aware that Blazedout419 and Blazed are from the same person. Especially seeing as he is a common inclusion in trust lists.

have you ever wondered why bitmain like many Chinese only give 90 days warranty? do you really think that Chinese policy? in everything you buy of any material guarantee is 24 months or 12 months. 90 days does not exist in any part of the world.
All 3 companies that sell to the public have a 90 day warranty, including Spondoolies.
