Re: wtf? i woke up and it says my bitcoin got sent to some one's address

Linux has always given me a headache. Windows has better software, better drivers if you know what you're doing it wont slow down.

I'm not saying linux is bad it's just too damn complicated for the average user. I'm well above your average user and I still find it complicated.
Also each new release of linux breaks something. The latest releases of linuxes I wasn't able to get mining working. Although a year ago it was simply plug and play. Or should I say plug and mine. I think that may have actually been cgminers fault, I may have installed the latest one that doesn't have Scrypt support.

It's ironic that people use the kids argument, because they, like I said, learn rapidly on either OS, because they are wired to learn rapidly.  Thus, they are usually as productive on either, and can easily switch between them.  

What I've discovered, though, is that adults who have used Windows for a long time have a hard time using Linux for the first time.  I've concluded it's not because one is easier than the other, but simply because, like music and many other things, they've become set in their ways and don't adjust to change easily, or learn as rapidly as kids do.  Our brain connections begin to decrease around 18.  We very rarely change our music genre beyond age 25.  

As for mining, well, when I got into it the biggest problem I found was lack of good up-to-date documentation.  It's a fast changing thing.  Heck, I finally got it working with my GPUs on Fedora and Ubuntu, only to learn that ASICs were kicking butt.  SIGH.  

That said, if I were to get into it today, it would be with a raspberry pi and a version of linux setup just for mining on the raspberry pi with USB ASICs.  Here's a youtube to get your started.  

Don't put your wallet on mining PI.  Smiley


I think the only difference between a child/teen its they have interest/passion/curiosity. Older people (+25-30)  just want turn on the computer, open web browser and join to facebook. They don't want any different than that. Facebook, maybe search any plane ticket or read some news in their usual newspaper.

Okay lets assume your kid want's to install a game on linux. They have to get you to install it and setup wine.
Kid wants to install a game on windows, download game, click the exe, install, play.

The only problem by me about Linux is. If something happens and all people die less 2 linux users, they use different distro. This is the problem of Linux.
The companies can offer good support on linux just for linux, its just a kernel.
Its nice have your own system. You choose your favorite philosophy, but the price of that philosophy usually its problems.

WTF its happening now.

Today i put 2 factor to any of my accounts just for that. Right now all related with Bitcoin its getting troubles with the security.
Of course i still thinking use Windows its a serious mistake, but Linux not is the best option, its really easy find many security holes on many Linuxes and more if it have java of any kind. And Chrome its a massive holes browser and the people still using it.

I don't doubt the OP its good IT but all looks like have any hole in your system

, the memes are helping to make it attractive to  any kind of person. And the community its using it a lot for any kind of things.

/rant

Dogecoin doesn't bring anything than a ridiculous and empty meme.

The only strength it has is the number of idiots who find it appealing for now.

And what coin offer any really interesting? I just say, the meme attract to mainstream people, and if the community of doge make easy payment system and any advantage vs credit card like lower taxes or lower fess or i don't know it will be the new bitcoin.

Price seems pretty stable to me at 950. Until the next ramp if course.  Cheesy

Yes, I was thinking if Amazon allowed payments, then flux; but I expect that would happen parralleled by easy options to everyone to buy coin.


If they don't offer any kind of difference on the price why mainstream people will trade fiat for BTC pay the commission and buy the item they want. I still thinking its needed any economic attractive to the mainstream people.

I think the most possible Doge will be the second and maybe the first cryptocoin.

Litecoin don't offer any different than bitcoin, and now it have the problem of mine it takes more expenses than benefits. Doge either offer any, but its cute, the memes are helping to make it attractive to  any kind of person. And the community its using it a lot for any kind of things. We can use doges on reddit or twitter and pay easily with them and that its the power of doge. Some websites offer the option to pay with doges, many games, gamble, ponzi scheme, mobile payments...
The most used coin will be the one offers easily payments for stupid people with their phones and with any extra than credit card. By now i think it will be doge, and i only expect it arrive in few months maybe 1 year to 0.1$.

I think its really needed a good multipool with exchange option. Many pools with updated coins. We have multipools but auto-change to BTC/LTC and have old coins with 0 value.

I don't have any problem to give 3% if i can just leave there and when i want change it for LTC/BTC/XPM
