mircea_popescu: " In September with bitcoins @ 140, with competition with 400 GH/s and 500 GH/s chips our machines would not ROI, so a decision was made that we would have to refund all of our pre-orders, so we did not commit a lot of our funds to building boards, we was also trying to get enough pre-orders to make our minimum lot with eASIC."

azi`: KRS1: so they are a bit shady..
mircea_popescu: rather than try to finagle a fundamentally unpaying model into paying you
mircea_popescu: nubbins` well that's kinda it, as a general principle. if you want to get paid do something that pays
KRS1: they've done other things like disabled onclick actions when you try to submit a form
nubbins`: but that aside, i can't see myself running a free-for-all forum

nubbins`: (a) to cover costs and (b) to get paid

nubbins`: it's a pay forum
nubbins`: not a lot to discuss yet, but figured it'd be nice to have something in place for when there is
nubbins`: make a forum
nubbins`: say, a rendition of creature x
