freeroute: if you're unfamiliar with F-Droid, it's basically
a repository for Free and Open Source Software applications for you Android phone. Just download the app for free and it basically becomes

freeroute: hi, is there
a channel for BTCT? I'm having difficulty with setting up Google 2FA.

gribble: The bot responds when you start
a line with the ! character.
A good starting point for exploring the bot is the !facts command. You can also visit the bot's website for
a list of help topics and documentation:
http://gribble.sourceforge.net/ gribble: Error: "later" is not
a valid command.

a curve of diff over time, on the other
a curve of their hashing power.
VanCleef: mircea sorry you've answered this
a few times but what proper asicminer share valuation price did you and your pr girl give it again, based on numbers something like 1.5 btc yeh?
qxzn: which by the way, is still
a bit hard to sort out assuming you're including all mtgox's currencies
qxzn: or do we not know, and somebody is just running
a bot nonstop pulling down that pie chart and checking mtgox's slices :P
qxzn: is that pie chart
a 30-day average?
mircea_popescu: the right play here i suppose would be to take
a contract out on yourself for 100 btc, then get 100 btc worth of life insurance and put 100 btc on
a bet you won't get killed.
mircea_popescu: looking at the pricing scheme i remember the days
a pizza was 10k btc.
gecko_x2: mircea_popescu won because he was convinced the sauna was
a fraud and he was really in hell with no way to escape

gecko_x2: Ken Slaughter, TheSwede75 and mircea_popescu were having
a sauna contest, who stays the longest
mircea_popescu: As
a result of these losses, TradeHill was unable to pay its employees and was forced to shut down exchange operations on February 13, 2012. We did not want to do this. We believe in Bitcoin and greatly enjoyed being involved in the community in such an integral way. Though we had hoped to continue different business operations on bitcoin.com, we were contractually obligated to return that domain name (along with bi
Diablo-D3: gecko_x2: trust me when I say luke is just
a troll
dub: gecko_x2: you have
a lot to learn son
Diablo-D3: I want to buy him
a beer and then beat him with it
dub: gavin is prime example, he tried to roll luke
a number of times
Duffer1: luke are you
a psychopath?
dub: denies that luke isnt
a psychopath?
dub: and even though quite
a number of people have seen him bragging about it, they dont want to be labled trolls by his little cabal of child rape apologists
ThickAsThieves: apparently you cant tell someone to "eat
a real penis" in response to "play
a real class" in dota 2
Luke-Jr: I don't *have* to deny that. Anyone with
a clue knows it's obviously lies.
kakobrekla: you are
a scumbag, you cant get around that.
Luke-Jr: ThickAsThieves: doesn't mean he needs to make up lies about people he hates but can't find
a truthful reason to make others hate
gecko_x2: you can't do it from
a basement with
a few inexperienced young nerds
gecko_x2: there is
a reason the companies specializing in worldwide logistics are big
gecko_x2: in addition to developing
a miner

a global logistics operation all by themselves
dexX7: let's say the following is given: If you send
a transaction spending all 100 BTC in address 13ign, with 10 BTC going to 1v1tal to pay for goods and 90 BTC change going back to your new address at 1mcqmmnx, the first node that you send the transaction to can replace the change address with whatever they want, recover the private key from your public key, and forge your signature. < which
pankkake: so I don't think there's such
a need
pankkake: I'm running
a node and it's doing fine, not that many connections
mircea_popescu: there's about 1.6-2k nodes irl, but yes it's very low and it's been constantly dropping and it's
a problem
bobbabad: mircea_popescu, I get that, but it doesnt seem "perfect" that it takes 50min for
a transaction to go through after
a difficulty change
pankkake: eh, block just found! with
a lot of waiting transactions
bobbabad: so that means that if I sent an transaction 41 minutes ago it would still not have any confirmations? sorry
a bit noobish with all this
pankkake: it's
a brute force process, you do not know when you will find the right hash
ystarnaud:
a block will never be generated faster
bobbabad: oh I see, so If I pay
a abnormally high fee it should go through in 10mins garuanteed
pankkake: still have to wait for
a block
ystarnaud:
a block is generated every 10 mins... if you pay higher transaction fees you go ahead of the queue hence getting faster transfer
pankkake: recordings transactions in blocks will always be
a slow in the long run
Diablo-D3: UHS-II cards, defined in Version 4.0, further raise the data transfer rate to
a theoretical maximum of 312 MB/s using additional row of pins

a poor faggot
Rulother: No he's asking whether to get
a miner or buy shares
heed: whether ASICPT is
a good investment or an ASICminer
Rulother: You're better off buying btc, then investing into
a company you're comfortable with and then "produce" btc off that.
ThickAsThieves: separately, you would also realize that "should I buy ASICMINER shares" is
a loaded question
heed:
a yeild of %1 or more is worth it
heed: "Please buy this graphics card with
a nuclear generator"
ThickAsThieves: the point is you should already know that buying an existing ASIC machine is
a waste of money in most cases
heed: i have been soaking for
a year
heed: those block eruptr chips are now $50
a pop
Rulother: Unless you have big money, go with investing
a company that you wish to invest in.

a miner?

a sort of mini-parliament
ThickAsThieves: my local city commission is like
a constant clown show
mircea_popescu: and if you do somehow end up
a politician, why;d you go into state politics
ThickAsThieves: maybe the problem is that if you're smart, reasonable, productive, etc, what motivation do you have to be
a politician. To get frustrated by idiots all day?
mircea_popescu: basically state houses are
a sort of retard olympics for the politicians
