So not that anyone here gives a shit but gpu miners are essentially fucked right now. Everyone is going towards fpga and bitsreams are being developed for a hand full of fpga for tons of algorithm. I think we will see a super sell off of GPU soon and this means more industry money filling the home Miner spot even on shitcoin mining.

there is fpga boosted gpu mining on its way also, not just straight up fpga.

i will be doing both.. have a bcu1525 ordered. and a couple cle-215+ coming to (maybe?) revitalize my aging gpu rig.

so fpgas that assist gpus may actually be a way to keep gpus relevant. we will see.

we need a hard coded cap cap

[kurious]

there are quite a few Brits here and we have enough arguments on our own turf, without any ill-informed help, I can assure you.

that works the other way around when it comes to our firearms mate


cheers from the colonies

Point taken, Jojo. 

We all have our arguments within our borders, but take umbrage similarly to outsiders who slur us.

There are some hateful fuckers in here, though.  I will try to ignore 'em, not be part of lowering the tone. Promise.

but just think of the mad framerates bro

can you quad SLI 1080TIs?

You can only dual-sli now. I'm not going to bother. Multi-GPU setups cause more problems than they're worth, in my experience.

Anyway, it's practically winter here. So even if the profitability is terrible, the free heat helps.

It's not free. The efficiency is like 3-4x less than regular heat pumps. So maybe you can reuse some of the heat generated but at a way higher cost than by other means.

SO its the 1 year anniversary of this guy.... hopefully people wil doing more research to avoid this SCAM artists and just buyin BTC.

The issue is some altcoins are just fucking fun, I mean for investment sure buy Bitcoin all day but right now my hobby is building little single board computer clusters and mining Verium right now. The ROI is super long but it's goofey good fun.

Do not confuse fun and goofy altcoins (like DOGE & Co.) with pure scams (like Bitconeeeeeeect)

The issue is actually making sure they aren't a scam, I basically write off any ICO, masternode presales, 5%+ premine and any centralized company coin.

How about you write off anything that creates its own token.. (other than bitcoin)?  hahahahahahaha

And electric heating is fucking expensive to begin with. Completely impractical for boating too, far more importantly.

What EU laws do you want abolished after brexit happens?

the (democratically elected and accountable) uk parliament should decide that and if we don't like what they do we can vote them out . that is the point.

I see you avoided the question.  

So you support the right to a second referendum?

no

But you just said if we don't like democratic decisions we have the right to change our minds and vote the other way.

you seem to only support democracy when it suits you.  

I understand, jonoiv, that you are interrogating bitcoinPsycho about his apparent contradictory position, which seems to be a fair inquiry.... .. yet in the end, if there is "buyer's remorse" in the UK about the brexit vote, then why wouldn't there be a process that allows for another vote?  Perhaps the need for a supermajority rather than a majority in order to reverse a prior decision?

It seems that a lot of folks, whether in the UK or outside of the UK, are realizing that the brexit vote was likely the less prudent path for the vast majority of UK peeps.

[edited out]

sorry you obviously KNOW more about my country than me
If you want a brexit debate ask jjg and I'm sure he will shower you with the wall of text that you desire.

You, bitcoinPsycho, and your seeming excessive defensiveness (which seems to have caused you to become too emotional and thus losing any kind of possible debate with jonoiv)  anticipated correctly.  I already attempted to butt into this conversation...

Don't confuse fun with smart.

You're saying my recent purchases of random mini PC's totaling close to $100 won't ROI for around 1-2 years isn't smart. Well that's just silly. Now I'm going to buy hoards of duckcoin 🦆.

Keep your eye on the prize, smartie pants.
