I think anyone with more than 1000 posts on this forum is a potential Bitcoin addict. Wink

There are much worse addictions though!  Grin

I pretty sure anyone with more than 1000 posts on this forum is already a Bitcoin addict Wink

Hi my name is ______ and I'm a cryptocashaholic.

My mining equipment will never ROI because I keep getting more and the price ticker tab is always open.
It wouldn't be such a bad thing if only I could convince Godiva to accept btc/xbt or in the very least....find a decent chocolate covered gummy-bear
on Amazon (so I can purchase a gift card with Gyft).

Do you have a good sponsor?
Don't hash and go to meetings.  Tongue
When you get tired of Cryptocashaholics Anonymous, try personal responsibility and self control, since 12 step meetings often do not work long-term.

Nah...I plan to fully indulge in this addiction and happily enable anyone who cares to imbibe

New confession:

Spent the better part of yesterday installing a second SSD (64Gb) in my computer.  The install was easy (also had to install a better case fan and manage air flow obstructions)

It was installing Ubuntu 14.04 on it that was a pain.  Turns out it doesn't like Dual Graphics stuff from AMD, so I had to disable my 6670 graphics card in the BIOS and plug it directly into the onboard graphics run by my sweet ass 6800K AMD APU.

Then I tried to install 0.9.1 Bitcoin-Qt (trusty) on it, and man did I have to work!  Finally figured out, with the help of Ask! Ubuntu, that there were issues with crypto keys that were trying to access the repository.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bluematt/bitcoin

gpg --keyserver  keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv XXXXX

gpg --export --armor XXXXX | sudo apt-key add -

This is all so I can have the full client on a drive that is not used for web surfing and such (it also has to be manually connected to the motherboard for access).  And well, I fkn love me some Ubuntu, it is just so time consuming, nothing seems to work without some effort unlike Windows 8.1.

When I finally got it installed I got my fix for the day!  It is now gradually downloading the full block chain.  Now I can save lots of space on my main SSD when it doesn't have to hold a full client.

My wife told me last night, "You are starting to spend a lot of time on this computer." 

I know what that means, I better do some TLC overtime.
