Anduck: a full m-board _should_ make 400gh and now actually only does 370 gh. but the unit/kit, which people ordered, does 400gh (so it includes 2 m-boards and 18-20 h-boards)
fractal: Someone ordered a 400 + 25Gh, and got 2 M-cards.
fractal: tyrion70: Nobody who ordered a 400Gh unit has posted recieving more then 400Gh.... so I can't answer that question.
tyrion70: I believe in general that a valid bet MUST contain all information needed..
fractal: Then 'as advertised' would make it a bad bet... and it wouldn't have been accepted.
tyrion70: fractal: the bet doesn't say "as advertised on the website www.blabla" .. the bet specifies the exact conditions itself.. without a need to read some website..
fractal: And since the hardware didn't perform as advertised -- the bet is a no.
FabianB_: hmm.. i bet the bitfury argument loop will still last a few hours..
fractal: which means the bet is a no, because all conditions of the bet were not met.
Anduck: it was advertised that 400gh KIT includes a m-board + 16 h-boards.... nothing about "units"
Anduck: it's a fact that 1 m-board can hold up to 16 h-boards, but that doesn't make it a 400gh unit
fractal: As per the website - a 400Gh unit is "1 Master board 16 hashing boards with 16 Bitfury 55nm ASIC chips for total of 256 chips"
fractal: thats not what the bet says -- it says 400Gh UNIT must be 400Gh, a unit is as advertised - '"1 Master board 16 hashing boards with 16 Bitfury 55nm ASIC chips for total of 256 chips"
fractal: Yea, but you didn't explicitly state that -- and people reading the bet went on the bitfurystrikesback website, and saw that a UNIT was "1 Master board 16 hashing boards with 16 Bitfury 55nm ASIC chips for total of 256 chips" -- what do you say to those people???
fractal: it suppose it could be argued the language made the bet a 'Bad bet' according to the FAQ...
fractal: But, according to the language, the bet is a NO. That doesn't change the fact that I think Bitfury is awesome and did a great job.
fractal: If the bet was voided, I would not mind as I do feel badly for Anduck -- he wrote the bet wrongly to what he meant. I have a conscience.
Anduck: yeah 25gh unit was advertised as a single h-card. but it took 2 h-cards to make the unit.,
fractal: A 25 gh unit was advertised as a single H-card. -- I'm pasting it all the time because you don't seem to realize that the bet says hardware device/uni AS ADVERTISED' -- i'm only going by the bet language
fractal: http://www.bitfurystrikesback.com/product/400gh-miner-october-2013/ -- 400Gh unit -- "1 Master board 16 hashing boards with 16 Bitfury 55nm ASIC chips for total of 256 chips" -- as advertised -- the hardware did not perform as advertised. The bet clearly states that the hardware must perform as advertised. All conditions of the bet were not met. Therefore the bet is a NO.
Anduck: BFL says they will deliver a 5gh hashing unit which eats X amount of watts. they deliver a bigger sized 5gh hashing unit that eats X amount of watts. customer got the advertised performance
fractal: which is what was advertised as a '400Gh' unit, according to the website
Anduck: that's not the full 400 gh unit in the pic, it's a full m-board with 16 h-cards.
Anduck: a delivered 400gh unit
fractal: punin: "We also found a noticeable voltage drop on the IOVDD chain when all 16 cards are plugged in (down to 1V66 from 1V8). This will get fixed (hopefully) in next revision on M-boards, that is already in production. This should help lower the errors and noise on Bus D." looks like their 400Gh units are underperforming on hashrate...
mircea_popescu: i don't know it's ever been more than a day or two
KRS1: thats why a nigga like me always be on my grind, im just a squirrel in this world tryin to get a nut...ya feel me.

mircea_popescu: i recall you were here a month or so back when we did the math, and it was something ridiculous top the tune of 50k
mircea_popescu: i guess it's my mistake that in adding volume lines on the actual sites i somehow gave the idiots the impression that a "real good copy" TM consists of LARGER DIGITS
mircea_popescu: anyway, so what's the plan, it'll call itself BiTBeTeC or BTBTC for short and print somewhere a line on the website going OVER 1500000000 BTC BET !!!
ThickAsThieves: even OJ Simpson had a movie career after killing his wife
mircea_popescu: why not just have a bigger penis than me. what the fuck happened to "doing something useful"

mircea_popescu: what if they're successful, ad absurdum ? i'll meet the guy at a conference in 2023 and say, o, you're the guy that was lieing in 2013 ?
mircea_popescu: and further funny how nobody seems to realise that starting your life by comitting to a hugely ridiculous and vastly verifiable lie is pretty bad for your credibility.
