Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

man whats with the doom and gloom. a few pages back it was $100k+ we were shooting for.

everyone run out of coke or meth or something?

Nothing wrong!
We will have a new ATH soon for sure.
Then we can hope for a 6 figure sooner or later.

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still going sideways... currently $9482USD/$12866CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

5 digits is still elusive but at least we're still over the veggie line.

Go Bitcoin go.

Darwin Awards? Lawl?
No! Spreading disease is
No laughing matter.

Both sides doing it Jimbo.
Spreading disease is bipartisan.

I wasn't talking about partisan politics. I was talking about Donald Trump and the sort of people who support him personally.

You look at groups of anti-brutality protesters and you see the majority wearing masks. In one image of Trump rally attendees, I counted 71 people and only 2 were wearing masks.

It has nothing to do with believing in fiscal responsibility vs government services or military spending vs healthcare. It has to do with supporting an arrogant, ruthless, bigoted, narcissistic bully.

Yeah, tried VM also. Managed to set it up, but after restart there was a display issue.The VM appeared as a square in the middle of the screen, leaving about half the distance to each side unused. Basically meaning that my display had shrunk by 50%.I looked through all the display options on Mint, but the best I could find was "maximize windows". Which did indeed maximize the VM window - but not what was displayed in the window...I still downloaded one of my favourite games and managed to log into my account. After loading was finished, it took me back to the account screen, though.

I also cound not connect an external hd, usb port was not detected. Might have to do with the passthrough-option you mentioned (which I have not looked into. Is that on Mint or VM or both?).

But I agree that having a properly working Win-VM on Linux would be the best of both worlds.

may be way off here buy when setting up VMs on my supermicro server i needed special video drivers for that funky VGA only chip in the server (BMC chip..? sorry half asleep), until i had that particular distros special server chips vga driver all my GUIs in the VM looked like crap. wrong resolution, weird colors sometimes, laggy as crap. once that driver was loaded all the VMs displays came up proper over the network.

sorry if im not reading this correctly but ive only on my 5th coffee.

Well, since this annoying "s/w rendering mode" message has disappeared once I upgraded my system, there might actually be a chance now of using this VM in the way it was supposed to work - full screen. I will go ahead and start it up again, after 9 months or so. Those problems regarding resolution etc. do sound familiar though. I remember I could actually load and start War Thunder with Steam. Thing was that my field of view was like 90 %. Meaning that all the stats in the top bar were invisible. I joined a match and about 1 minute in I realised it would be useless because the GUI was limiting the experience just too much. I left the match and as the screen was about to fade to black, I heard the sound of machine guns, followed by the sound which indicates that I was shot down..

Also, regarding your previous post addressing me: No offense taken. I am aware of the fact that merit fishing is not well liked in this thread. I wrote that because it was my very first post, and it got quite some feedback. You know, for some people, very first times are important...

Glad the scene released this, I would have never known it existed otherwise.

There is 175€ (about 200$) between the upper and lower bounds of my buy and sell orders, and these last few days/weeks it has been increasingly difficult to hit them with any regularity. Sometimes 1 day, sometimes a full two days pass without a single order getting executed.

So sideways it is, and I don't like it.

For pure hodlers it's fine though.

Thinking about changing to linux soon. -ish. Before the next windows version, at the latest. Long time e-friend nerd recommended linux mint. Looks user friendly. Anyone using it? Can recommend/not recommend?

Been using Mint for about a year and a half now. As a complete IT-noob, I was able to find instructions on how to make a bootable stick, install successfully and set it up aftwerwards (thanks to YT).

Upsides:
Easy to handle, no forced updates, no AntiVirus needed, flexible in customization/appearence, comes with lots of pre-installed s/w.

Downsides:
Had driver problems with integrated GPU lots of times because my Ryzen 7 (from march 2019) was seemingly not fully supported by the latest version at that time (has changed now with the latest mint version available), gaming on Linux is still a struggle despite Steam/Proton, trouble shooting can also be a challenge if you don`t find the answer to your problem easily on google/YT (and even then results of success may vary).

Bottom line:
I will stick with Linux for everyday activities on the net, but am thinking about getting an extra machine with MS for gaming only.
Alternatively, there is a new Brazilian distro - Linuxfx 10 - out that is not only supposed to look like Win 10, but also to be able to handle .exes (so far, from what I know, it is in Portuguese only, though).

Hope that helped.

P. S.: Hi everybody.

You can run a win version in a VM with GPU passthrough for finicky programs.

Yeah, tried VM also. Managed to set it up, but after restart there was a display issue.The VM appeared as a square in the middle of the screen, leaving about half the distance to each side unused. Basically meaning that my display had shrunk by 50%.I looked through all the display options on Mint, but the best I could find was "maximize windows".

Yes, the pass through is integral as it gives the VM direct access to the hardware. you must add the gpu at a minimum and the other devices are optional.

Will look for that, cheers.

About the virtual machine discussion, are you using a type 1 hypervisor, or a VM on top of Linux/Unix (using VirtualBox or other) ?

I run two headless computers/servers and each is running a couple of VMs, one has enough power to run everything but I need to decide on the hypervisor. One server is running an OpenSolaris derivative (OpenIndiana), it is recommended to use ESXi with it, but I'm not decided yet, I'd like to try a free (as in free software) option. OpenIndiana/Solaris itself has a virtualization layer built in, but only Solaris is really able to run windows and linux VMs as a type 1 hypervisor, and that isn't free.

You and me both bro, though I gave up using it years ago. Legal growing is far more fun, healthy and lucrative.

do you ever try to makes extracts (oils, wax etc) or just straight up smoke the bud?

asking for SWIM

I’ve tried it all but I’m old school and still think smoking flower is the way to go. I don’t even mind cotton mouth or coughing for 5 min because I held my breath too long. When I say old school I mean I’m fucking older than dirt. Currently my main pastime is looking up how many of my favorite entertainers are dead. I almost cried when David Bowie died. I saw him in concert over 30 times. I’m embarrassed to say how many times I’ve seen Rush perform and now Neil Peart is dead. No chance of a reunion concert for Rush now. LOL I smoked my first bud of Columbian gold in 1975 while watching Chevy Chase on SNL. I bet I made hash brownies before you were born. Extracts are fine and most of the peeps I know vape but it’s not for me.



Jay you know I mined LTC from the beginning because I had a man crush on coblee (Charlie Lee) and terrytibbs. I also wanted to mine something and be a true early adopter but I think bitcoin followers are being diluted by all the shitcoins and so is this forum. This forum is nothing but Indonesians posting for money and shitcoins promoters looking to fuck a few more fiat coins out of dumbasses. This thread (only one thread on the entire forum) is the last bastion of true bitcoin supporters on this forum. I’m not saying there is a better one out there, although Goats forum was pretty good for a while.

Also Jay, I would love to exist for only bitcoin so if you could just convince my mortgage banker and grocery stores to start taking bitcoin I’ll be happy to do it. Every miner converts bitcoin to fiat because they need to pay the electric company and all of their bills. You believe I put too much value on fiat. Well yeah Jay I put a little bit of value on eating, electric lights and having someplace to take a shit every day that doesn’t involve wiping my ass with a leaf. LOL

I use VirtualBox, which comes with Mint. I have honestly no idea what you were talking about in the 2nd part. I am a complete IT-noob, relying on step-by-step instructions.

Mmmm so JJG you’re always awake?

as long as JJGs power source is on.

rarely, JJG goes down for scheduled upgrades. you can tell those periods when his (her?) programmers are forced to type a response on JJGs downtime; typically those are one or two lines, and sometimes they are not punctuated correctly.

JJGs uptime has been impressive though. hot swap stuff mostly i assume.

You know too much.

under 2019 now...

Even though this graph looks nice.  It seems to me that your short time comparisons is not really telling us very much, and historically, i have been a bit hostile towards attempting to draw too many inferences based on seasonalities and even how one, two or three months of the year has historically performed, so essentially, we might come to a lot of wrong conclusions by attempting to look at such snapshots of data like that because bitcoin is neither seasonal or on a fiscal or calendar year schedule, even though those lines do look pretty (and distinguishable) on that chart.

Yeah then continue with that.

A type 1 hypervisor is like if virtualbox was the OS on your computer, the first thing you installed. Then everything is run in virtual machines. It's how it's done in small data centers and server rooms. In big datacenters the hardware itself is hidden, many physical servers/blades are combined into large clusters on top of which VMs are run, and can seamlessly be moved from one cluster to another, or copies run concurrently to provide high availability.

That's the theory, since my company has moved to that latest model (no cloud as no trust in cloud companies not giving our data to the highest bidder/US government) we have rather lost in availability than gained... Maybe I should try to work in that field and could get a good salary out of fixing that mess.
