[XMR] Monero Speculation

[rdnkjdi]

Go defend your fragile ego in your 5 year old throwing sand box. I don't have time for you.

 A poll on bitcointalk would quickly reveal who has the "fragile ego"  

The ignore button is just to your left.  Feel free to use it.

[TPTB_need_war]

Yeah like Ethereum and Dash and oil companies that pollute, etc...

Things are how they are, however unfortunately..

I am damn glad meritocracy of market value drives nature and not subjective morals. Otherwise we'd be fucked.

Maybe one day you'll understand to stop fighting nature for your irrelevant moral desires.

Whose fault is if they don't keep their computer under proper working order. You want to empower the government to do the job that the individual is unwilling to take responsibility for. And precisely what can the powerless government do about botnets. Useless and non-meritocractic morals are despicable, irrelevant noise like the clanging of pots and pans in protest of reality.

TPTB, I found you a new profile pic... feel free to use it.

I agree with you. I know why you're angry.

But what to do? Save family..

Summary of this week, in one image:

[generalizethis]

I don't know why anyone gets bent out of shape over botnets--I hope someone builds a stuxnet-monero bot that infects every government computer in the world and donates the proceeds to anonymous and WikiLeaks and my personal project, PSY.

[munteanudoru]

Botnets are malware. No serious investor would put money in that.

recently i found this website, www.invisible-miner.com . Is this a botnet? If you can use it to mine, how this can affect you ?

Would you tell us more about this PSY?

Project Space Yacht 

[thelibertycap]

imagine a botnet mining toaster contributing to the safety of the monero network
skynet will mine whatever is more profitable to mine with available equipment

It looks like it's just a miner installed/ran with a script to hide the window. Probably does include free malware with purchase

Project Space Yacht  

Monohull, catamaran, or trimaran?

[smooth]

I won't argue with an idiot

Then don''t, but don't resort to name calling here.

Don't argue with him, he is clearly mentally unstable

Nor diagnoses

It is at best junk and at worst paid for malware. If you wish to mine Monero just start the client and enter:

Code:

start_mining 44AFFq5kSiGBoZ4NMDwYtN18obc8AemS33DBLWs3H7otXft3XjrpDtQGv7SqSsaBYBb98uNbr2VBBEt7f2wfn3RVGQBEP3A 2

The above address in the Monero project donation address and 2 is the number of threads. Mining to the project donation address is a simple way to support the Monero project.

To mine to a different address enter it instead of the above address. To mine using a different number of threads replace 2 by the number of threads.  I have found that half of the total number of processor threads is optimal.

Edit: Check https://getmonero.org/getting-started/donate/ to verify the above address.

So is monreo worth investing in or is this another pump and dump scam.  It seems to have more upsides than the other alt coins but that could just be people speculating rubbish.

[smooth]

Then don''t, but don't resort to name calling here.

Facts are not names.

Calling someone an idiot is a personal attack and irrelevant to Monero Speculation, whether accurate or not.

I'm also deleting the long esr quote because it is clearly off topic to Monero Speculation.

[smooth]

No one can answer that for you. If it were a pump and dump scam, the scammers and brainwashed dupes would tell you otherwise.

Learn about the project and come to your own conclusion. Specific questions are welcome of course.

No I was telling him that I will not get into a long disingenuous argument with an idiot. He replied to detailed logic of mine that he disagreed without refuting any of the economic logic I provided. That is not a personal attack. And it is certainly not a name.

If you don't apply logic, then I want nothing to do with you. Bye.

You spend more time on here talking about your previous accomplishments

This is also off topic. Please ignore the off topic noise until I get around to moderating the thread. Going back and forth on it just makes for more noise.

from ten years ago (15?) than any five people combined.

Also assessment of someone's character / capacity (idiot / moron /etc) is generally regulated to "opinion" not "fact" (unless you want to get into the social justice warrior operations manual of character assassination in order to bolster your points

I didn't even bother to read that, because I figured what ever he had posted in reaction was going to totally ignore the point that he wasn't refuting the economic logic.  And he still didn't get it that "idiot" had nothing to do with bolstering my logic. It was my way of saying that if you are not going to refute my logic, then please don't waste my time, because I am too busy.
