Citronick's Weekend Rhymes ---------------------------------
Hey, I now can buy my drone!
OT: what is the purpose of it? the only thing I can think of is documenting your exploits from the distance if you are mountain biking or rock climbing or something like this. i was reading about one that you can 'virtually' tether to yourself at some distance, but Fantom you were mentioning has only 28 min flight time-too litle for rock climbing, probably.

As for the boycott... I hate to tell you this but realistically in this world the chance of that happening is negative infinity.
Yeah too many people have no backbone to stand against a shtty company and only think of making $$ even though they'll probably never ROI. Lol. IMHO you wrongly asume they aware of situation like you are. I think we (forum active members) do not anticipate majority oblivious miners who "plug-in and forget" their Bitmain gear and never come here and never try looking for other than factory default pool. Most who I speak to educate will not "risk" to evaluate difference within recommended month long period and go back after one day saying:"Antpoo pays more" and they give sh... for "good for Bitcoin cause" since they driven poorly by short-sighted greed. Isn't obvious that we are here very very small (but elite ) group of all miner gear owners? I think the majority are like fridge owners - you don't hung on fridge owners forum, do you? Please fire your translator. I didn't understand even one point you are trying to make.

Just a reminder about the FR node that I posted ... a while ago.
Some time between 04:00 and 05:00 UTC (in about 12 hours) the datacentre will take the node offline for about 5 minutes. Since bitcoind isn't all that happy about being unceremoniously stopped, and can, on rare occasions, end up having to resync after an untidy shutdown, I'll be shutting the node software down just before 04:00 UTC until the datacentre work is done.
If you have a backup of DE or DK or even Vegas then you'll continue mining on the pool without any down time. However, I will also redirect FR DNS to DE about half an hour before 04:00 UTC The DNS TTL Is only 10 minutes so half an hour is enough.
This will mean that your miner will switch over to DE when I take FR offline just before 04:00 UTC Once the datacentre has finished whatever they are doing, and I've restarted the node software, I'll switch the DNS back. Thus when your miner next disconnects and reconnects some time in the future after that, it will connect back to the FR node.
I'll post again here once I know it's all been completed.
Edit: the times were EDT not UTC, so I added 4 more hours to correct the UTC values

Please fire your translator. I didn't understand even one point you are trying to make.
Sorry but I have none, and had no privilege to be educated in English. Maybe instead you make some effort as my writing can't be that bad. My point is simple: I think that most of Antpool miners are unaware of pool choice nor reason for change. Nothing to do with making a stand.

I'm sure your English is better than me writing whatever your native language is. Maybe better than my English . I got it just fine the first time as well...but did have to work at it a bit. That's OK, as it was worth the effort. I happen to agree, basically...perhaps because I've spent so many years in user support and find that most folks are not particularly inclined to actually understand why their particular thingy (tablet, laptop, miner) does what it does, but just want it to "do its thing" when they plug it in. I can see quite easily how someone could take any unit out of the box, plug it in, and not even know what pool it's mining to other than they had to get their logon right. OTOH, I also happen to fall in with Kano's pointing out the issues that BiteMe continues to create for itself. I rather enjoy this forum for the reasons you noted as well...(mostly ) intelligent discourse from folks who have more of an investment in BTC than just cash...and I find out what I need to know on important issues quickly, and it's usually already vetted.

If I want to mine here with the 2x s-9's looks like I point them to nicehash 24/7/365 and rent back from nicehash on larger spot rentals.
It works but is convoluted.

KANO, are you saying that I just wasted my BTC on 5 x S9`s since they cant mine at CK ? If so, I have to write BITMAIN. I do not want to be forced to mine at crappy Antpool.

Gave in to my dogsled angst and put my last two S3s back online whilst waiting for the S7s to hit the datacenter... OK...can someone give some solid feedback on this S9 code thing? I have a bit of difficulty wrapping my brain around a corp doing something like what is being suggested...which would keep any reasonable person from buying. Who has actually got their hands on one of these and fired it up? Wha' hoppened?

Im really pissed if this is the true and how the Hell can they even think people would accept this kind of behavior I allready wrote BITMAIN to make them confirm if this is false and why they made a hack in the software.

Indeed...but, like I said...who's got their mitts on one now, and has tried to point it to kano.is? I don't think I would particularly trust any reply from them...and that's if it even remotely addressed your actual question (ie., I've had comms with them before, and it wasn't necessarily pretty).

I would wait until someone actually has one to pass judgement. Just speculation here. They may just have the config file locked in the linux filesystem. I have seen an S7 in that state. If you have root access you can fix the permissions. I don't think they will pull root access.
Hey, just got a keepkey, slick little bugger.

Yup...the last two S7s I got (Batch 16) came with Antpoo as the default first pool, etc. but were not locked, nor anything out of the ordinary in that respect...so, who's actually got an S9 and kicked the tires/lit the fires toward ckpool?

Block by 17JVLWMAk with his 22nd Kano Block! That's the 6th block today! I'm loving it...even the measly six S3s are now generating enough (here at home...I've got amps to cover those) to cover my power costs on the S7s in the datacenter. I'm just goofing about with the dogsled thing...I've been to Labrador and know full well the weather's quite nice there this time of year. Gotta have something facetious to hang onto, having almost 14TH idle with spot at $570+. C'mon, dogsled!
