I think the "mining by the GH" is real, but they will not use BFL vaporware for mining  |

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Personally I would love to see them have to deliver all the gen1 asics.
This just reads as another attempt to scrap the gen1 and rush into gen2 (which I assume they will be mining on to increase profit) so the cloud begins to lift over them and new bitcoin entrants can be sucked in.
I sure hope everyone keeps their gen1 asic's hashing.
Mainly for the good of the network but also so we see them begin to fail and bfl attempt to meet their "lifetime warranty".

I prefer to receive it and keep it in unopened box, like starwars goodies
And I will have something to remind me for what I was fucked in the ass.
Here's what I was thinking: Everyone should send one tube of K-Y lubricant to BFL (attn: Josh). That way when they fail to deliver on the Monarch they will be able to sufficiently prepare their customers before applying the ass pounding. You can buy a tube for about .07btc right now. http://www.cryptosextoys.com/ky-jelly-tube-2ozAmazon sells it too and will even gift wrap it. http://www.amazon.com/KY-K-Y-Jelly-Personal-Lubricant/dp/B005GHH6FO/ref=sr_1_18?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1381883006&sr=1-18&keywords=k-yJust order it up and have them ship it to 10770 El Monte, Leawood, KS 66211 USA I am going to do this. And if just one more of you do this with me, BFL may well just dismiss us as a couple of fags. But if three of us, imagine three disgruntled BFL customers each send one tube of K-Y to BFL, they might start getting worried. And imagine if you can, just imagine how BFL will feel when they start seeing dozens of tubes of K-Y shipped to their doorstep every day. They would think it was a movement. And folks, that's just what it is, the Butterfly Ass Lube Movement. Ed. |

It is a massively hilarious picture. However, a more down to earth solution would be to pay some 7ft tall guys to knock on BFL's door, ask for Josh, and then show him the K-Y with a grin on their face. |

I could get on-board with this. I might recommend Astroglide as an alternative, however. |

I come from the pork production industry, and I would recommend this instead: http://www.enasco.com/product/C08175NOTOH, he's not worth spending anything on, so just use spit. Mining by the GH is just another desperate attempt to stay in the market and keep on scamming the public. |

The lifetime warranty, if I remember correctly, is one year after they start shipping the Monarch. Unfortunately, I can't find any FTC regulations that can redefine the warranty to a longer period, so those who have 65nm products can only hope and pray that the Monarch is delayed or never shipped. EU customers say that their warranty period must be at least 3 years according to EU regulations, but BFL doesn't care much about rules anyway. |

The one reason I wanted my Jalapeno was to have it for sentimental reasons mostly. (Saying I paid 600 bucks for that thing with taxes, had to wait many months and it made me .5 BTC, etc.) It was the customs tax I couldn't deal with though. It won't be long that I can get one on Ebay for less than 100 bucks anyway, so I will probably have my sentimental Jalapeno at some point in time. LOL at the KY Jelly suggestion guys. What a great great plan. LOL It needs it's own thread. Really. What shall we call it? eheheh IAS |

Just A tip.....
NEVER NEVER give BFL any money.
Out of a recent order of NEW kit, OUT OF THE BOX 3 items were defective. , took 6 DAYS to get an RMA.., 5 days to get it back to them, then they POSTED the replacement units.
3 units were sent out of BFL with CLEARLY VISIBLE faults, no end fan working, no USB connector on PCB, PCB mis-mounted to such an extent you could not get a USB plug in
(you would have to be fu***ing BLIND to not have seen them... lets just call them the 'daily shipping...meet target units')
you would think that with that sort of mistake they would be falling over backwards to help a guy out...
But no.... Instead I received the finger.
BFL are scum.
