omg please block won't you come Cry Cry
Wow the setup above is nice!

I wonder how many watts are currently being spent mining BTC in the world. Any idea on the average Jules/gigahash? is it around 1.25 or something?


We are going to burn our world's oil reserves faster than we thought =]


lol you should know how the world works..  we wont run out because we will use other peoples oils.    Like we use our own..ha.  well just pay people and other countries to use theres,   we dont make our own..    (Solar panels wouldn fix this all)


 agreed.  One hell of a long block.  23hrs encounting.       Tongue better be a good one..... than we find out... its orphaned or invalid :O :O :O   shit hits the fan than Tongue Tongue



At least the btc price is going up.... all these new S4s basically mean we all be screwed soon is what i think.  all my S1s will become useless bc of S4s... the S3s will be useless a few months or years after.....  the new miners that come out make it harder for everybody else, we all will strugle allot more to make out profits..........   itll be like a trutle walking..... about a 1 day to get 10 feet.    

in mining... 1 day to make what you make now.   in less than a day




I think its smarter to not upgrade all the time..    the more power you got.. the higher the diff.   and the lower ur payout because your adding so much more power to a pool..   my opinion is... less is more and more is less

^ I heard this one the other day.......

A Little 5 yo girl is riding her bicycle with training wheels on Christmas morning......
A Police man on a horse comes over and says "Little girl, thats a pretty bike, did Santa bring you that for Christmas?"
Little girl says "He sure did!!"
The Police man looked at the bike and says "Next year tell Santa to bring reflectors and a helmet."(as he hands here a $25 ticket)
The little girl takes the ticket and says "Mr. Police man, that's a pretty horse...did Santa bring him to you for Christmas?"
The Police man says "Yes little girl.....he sure did!!"
The little girl look up a the Police man and says "Next year tell Santa the dick goes underneath the horse, not on top!!"

Thanks for the props!  The following is a great article that answers your question in relation to gold.

https://cdn.panteracapital.com/wp-content/uploads/Bitcoin-vs-Gold.pdf

 The annual cost of mining gold is $105 billion vs. $0.79 billion for Bitcoin.
 Gold mining uses 475 million gigajoules of energy versus 3.6 million for Bitcoin.

This is a first for me. I've had a 23hr block here before, but NEVER a 24hr+ block.
If only Slush himself could come clean and tell us what gremlins he's introduced to that backend ......

They say a picture says a thousand words .... mervel!

Well, we are now at zero luck. I think that says it all.



On a rural road a state trooper pulled this farmer over and said:
 "Sir, do you realize your wife fell out of the car several miles back?"
To which the farmer replied: "Thank God, I thought I had gone deaf!"

And the pool hoppers are running for the hills.  Down to 7.3 PH.  And i too have never seen the luck at Zero. Kind of a hollow feeling.  Undecided

Jokes for the unlucky...

A young man goes into a drug store to buy condoms.

The pharmacist says the condoms come in packs of 3, 9 or 12 and asks which the young man wants.

"Well," he said, "I've been seeing this girl for a while and she's really hot. I want the condoms because I think tonight's the night. We're having dinner with her parents, and then we're going out. And I've got a feeling I'm gonna get lucky after that."

"Once she's had me, she'll want me all the time, so you'd better give me the 12 pack."

The young man makes his purchase and leaves.

Later that evening, he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and her parents. He asks if he might give the blessing and they agree. He begins the prayer, but continues praying for several minutes.

The girl leans over to him and says, "You never told me that you were such a religious person."

The boy leans over to her and whispers, "You never told me that your father is a pharmacist."

I've had nothing but bad luck all day.
This morning as I was buttoning my shirt, a button fell off.
After that, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle fell off.
Then I went to open the door, and the doorknob fell off.
I went to get into my car, and the door handle came off in my hand.
Now I'm afraid to pee

Bad Luck is...

A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day. One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you stayed right here. When my health started failing, you were still by my side. You know what?"

"What dear?" she asked gently, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth.

"I think you're bad luck."

We a gonna make a much money.  Weee weeeeeea weeee aaa weeeee.   This block.  I'd laugh...and cry if it is anything but a confirmed block.  

There once wasa  boy named micheal finnaginaginagina

He wasa  boy who liked to play the fiddle.  


I think about hopping all the time when slush gets bad luck.   But why..  whats the point of switching... when switching in general looses you money.. but once you switched to another pool that isnt your main pool... usually means a great deal of money lost,  so now there is 2 factors.


The lose of money for the pool hop itself,  and the lose of money in switching pools.   
(sounds corny but its true I did my calculations myself)


Dont pool hop,  just dedicate half your miners to 1 pool each instead of hopping that way you earny double or never loose out on money.

Just before the recent Scottish independence referendum, First Minister Alec Salmond asked for a private audience with the Queen:

"Your Majesty, when Scotland becomes independent - as it undoubtedly will - it will still be a kingdom, but I believe it should have its own monarch, and I think I should be the King."

"No, Mr Salmond, I cannot agree to that.  The matter has already been decided."

"Then Scotland could become a principality, and I could be the Prince."

"I'm sorry, Mr Salmond, but that would never do.  However rest assured that I shall always think of Scotland as a country."
