Add more RAM so you don't run out of memory. Can also use SSD / HDD as virtual memory, but that slows down stuff.

Just need to buy more from the MemoryDealers

he is rich enough!  

EDIT: just a quick question: what is the background of the implemented sMerit burn fuction? two rMerits result into just one sMerit? no hoarding of sMerit?

To decay merit cycling. Otherwise just *ONE* Smerit could result in the "creation" of an unlimited amount of Merit just by cycling it repeteadly between users.

how come? if one rMerit results into one sMerit the amount will not increase. hoarding of sMerit of some users could be a problem then and selling it afterwards.

I assume by rMerit you mean Merits. If this some sort of new thing I am unaware, disregard all my comment.

If I do have 1 Smerit and when I sent it you you would obtain 1 Merit and 1 Smerit, we could just cycle the same Smerit back and forth between us and reach an unlimited amount of Merit. Just by cycling the same Smerit.

yes, with rMerit I mean Merit.

lol, I completely forgot the aim of the whole Merit thing. to increase the level of the user through his Merit bankroll. forgot the bankroll completely.  

thanks brother! you are my man.

The Financial Times Alphaville explains what the halvening (pardon the gobbledygook) is.

Might be a good time to start shorting TSLA

Wonder if anybody who has benefited from their pumps will convert into bitcoin

It has surged and even novogratz noticed its bull run like when BTC had its own last time.
Irwin says it due to FOMO and not the technology. Hope he isnt right about that cause this would mean the same about the cryptocurrency market.

Hehe I saw a guessing game on Dutch TV (RTL-Z) today, they showed the graph of the Tesla stock value with the name blurred out, and asked, "is this the value of Apple or Bitcoin? No, it's Tesla stock!"

dude...that was 2 weeks ago

I have been in quarantine for 14 days, what do you expect?

[marcus_of_augustus]

In some good news on the virus front the last 2 days of data show the trend is peaking for cases outside of China. Few more days like this and we have dodged the proverbial thermonuclear biobomb.

China infection rate is still accelerating, they're fucked for now.

Thank you Trump for taking decisive action against WHO and Chinese pleadings to quarantine the commies', keep the Chinese Communist virus mess inside China and allow the rest of the world to follow suit and avoid chinese commie bullying threats over trade, etc.

I think I have figured out what his plan is with tesla.
He wants to over take China on the race to automate our society with AI. First the cars and the energy grid..
Next the kitchen and our computers. He will hit the heart of what the world feeds on..
Food for the body and information for the mind.

So far, yes. But that doesn't mean it's as good as over yet. Nobody knows the number of early, undiscovered infections, that maybe only induced mild forms of sickness, but the spreading continues. Two weeks incubation time ain't no shit.
However, the good news for China is, that the count of recovered is increasing faster now than the count of deaths, at least regarding official numbers.
The list of countries/regions where infections were found is still growing, too.
I think about four weeks (three from now) are needed to get a better picture of the spread and infection rates.

ooh nice long article, fairly basic. also, interesting site. hmm

Official numbers are worthless.

They are shoveling bodies into the incinerators in three shifts over there.

the posts of BFL Josh are coming to my mind again: "just two weeks" ^TM

do you mean it has something to do with Corona? maybe BFL was the original source of it? a lab and not a business to develop and produce ASIC miners?

Confirmed ... deaths are over 1000 by now using extrapolated epidimeological numbers.

Also elevated emissions of SO2 over wuhan is indicative of human cremation.

Agreed, we are not out of the woods yet. Idiotically, Thailand, Myanmar, Indonesia and the Phillipinnes still have open borders with China so we need to watch for outbreaks there and isolate those countries if needed. I don't see ANY good news coming out of China for 2-3 months.

... the next 2 weeks are critical.

next 2 days are critical too!

With China’s mining hardware makers delayed by the coronavirus, some miners face risks ahead of halving

QUICK TAKE

• Due to the coronvavirus outbreak in China, several Chinese mining hardware manufacturers – including Bitmain, Canaan, and MicroBT – all extended the Lunar New Year holiday
• Although many mining farms have already upgraded their mining equipment prior to 2019 in preparation for the block reward halving, some are still waiting for their miners to be delivered while others are deploying their rigs and in need of customer support
• Depending on the severity of the virus outbreak, this production schedule disruption may have a varying degree of effect on miners around the world

With China’s mining hardware makers delayed by the coronavirus, some miners face risks ahead of halving
BY CELIA WAN

The coronavirus outbreak could present new challenges to bitcoin miners – and the companies in China that provide them with harder – depending on how well prepared they are for the upcoming block reward halving.

The Chinese government decided to extend the Lunar New Year holiday until February 2 due to the spreading virus that has gripped the entire nation by fear and uncertainty. Subsequently, several of the largest bitcoin mining equipment manufacturers, including Bitmain, MicroBT, and Canaan, put out notices informing clients that they have suspended shipping, manufacturing, and customer services of their mining rigs.
