bowjob: guys anyone recognized
the s/s
Doffx: I dont
think most miner even know what GBT is.
Luke-Jr: apparently
they're now centralizing
their pool and going stratum-only :/
Luke-Jr: that was
the problem all along
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: bitcoind and p2pool can feed you a forked
template
too
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: could; miners are expected
to be smart and detect such
things
kakobrekla: Luke-Jr: so
the pool can still feed you
template from a forked chain?
ThickAsThieves: Luke-Jr, which asic companies are hashing on
the side?
gribble: Next difficulty estimate | 9612397.38912 based on data since last change | 10025677.4438 based on data for last
three days
kakobrekla: so
the pool can still feed you
template from a forked chain
mircea_popescu: so basically other
than eclipse who exactly even uses gbt ?
Doffx: I
thought I remember seeing it way back I am probably wrong mainly because
this is
the first
time I understood what it even meant.
Doffx: GBT has been around a long
time, even when I started 2 years ago
Doffx: I see
that after reading
the wiki
Doffx: Because of how fast
they getwork I
think
Doffx: No Gh, mainly because I know
they only really work with Stratum pools
Doffx: What happens if someone decided
to plop 200+ GH worth of Asic on Deepbit
Luke-Jr: but rollntime isn't done at bitcoind, it's done at
the poolserver
Luke-Jr: mircea_popescu:
they don't have
to upgrade
to use rollntime
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: BTCGuild *did* lose a bit when
they upgraded
to 0.8 because
the admin wasn't paying attention
to what he was doing
mircea_popescu: Luke-Jr deepbit doesn't want
to upgrade because generally speaking updates are also shit.
Luke-Jr: mircea_popescu:
tell
Tycho/Deepbit
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla:
they lost nothing from
the split, Gavin gave
them what
they would have mined
Luke-Jr: no clue why
they're all going onto BTCGuild
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: most of
the smaller pools support GBT
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: not really, just by
the big centralized pools
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla:
they apparently WANT centralization
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: BTCGuild/slush made
their own protocol which un-solved
the problem
kakobrekla: im sure
the reason btcguild is
trying
to get rid of miners is because its all safe and good
Doffx: I haven’t seen anything about
this new protocol, is
there a post about it someplace?
Luke-Jr: putting it back with
the miners
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: by
taking
the blind control away from pools
Luke-Jr: kakobrekla: I intentionally designed
the new protocol so
that it SOLVED
the pooled mining centralization problem
Doffx: p2pool seemed
to be disliked by a lot of
the developer
types for some reason
kakobrekla: basically
the new protocol from Luke-Jr fucked it all up
Doffx: err slightly more, my reason was well.. I am greedy
to a point?
Doffx: I used it but it felt like I was losing BTC doing so,
there were so many other options
that made me slight more
kakobrekla: cause a
ton of people wouldnt mine under solo conditions
mircea_popescu: i don't like pools because basically
they fuck up
the entire point of mining
Doffx: I dont care what it looks like, I just want
TH speed
Doffx: They would also need
to offer something new and exciting
to get people
to move
Doffx: That would be
tough
to do kakobrekla,
this community
trusts no one and rightfully so not
to mention all
the pools seem
to go bankrupt
kakobrekla: i cant belive im saying
this but
theres space for new pools
MJR_: do you know
the largest diff jump
that has happened so far
this year?

mod6: haha jeeze. it makes my eyes bleed some of
the stuff i read on
there on a daily basis.
mircea_popescu: punkman
the average scam pays between 1/3 and 1/2 of all net revenuye for advertising
TheMonarchTx: so once
the bubble popped it's not surprising
that
the new accounts don't result in increased volume
kakobrekla: the line is getting longer but
the news are calming, are
they de-amling users?
pgp: true, but with so many new accounts at gox, seems very light
to me...
kakobrekla: vol is inline with what it was before
the pop or poop, whatever you wanna call it
pgp: yep... so I would be hesitate
to call "all clear" on price stability...

joecool: truffles: nah it's more like a box
truck backing up repeatedly into you
orkaa: in slovenia we elected
the first black mayor ever
joecool: but
this is
the US, black people in canada are pretty rare and i've never seen a giant one
there
joecool: yeah never did
that, its bad enough being at a bar and having a giant black ass jackhammer you in
the crotch
mircea_popescu: i imagine
they get a pretty sweet self confidence boost by visiting lol
mircea_popescu: in general actually black people are rare enough
that banging a black chick is a sort of personal
trophy for any male
mircea_popescu: joecool
there's a bunch of peeps from africa come
to study,
there's also a strong gypsy minority.
MJR_: i
think
they play basketball for
the local
team...that is not a joke
joecool: kakobrekla: go hardcore, do lines of different colored
toner
joecool: better
to smoke
than work in office
joecool: you
think
that's a fresh smell?
that's
the
toner permeating your lung
tissue
orkaa: mircea_popescu, at least he'd be fair, everyone gets
the same deal
kakobrekla: just print a new lung whats
the big deal
orkaa: or we live in
the right country
orkaa: so we either get insanely rich by
then
orkaa: internet won't be able
to cure our cancer when we're 70
mircea_popescu: orkaa americans are racist in
their own peculiar ways.
MJR_: we aren't all american citizens here...(i am, not
that it matters)
