Re: [ANN][POOL] Mining Pool Hub - Auto profit switching / Auto exchange to alt coins
I found a trojan in my friends computer that deployed a miner mining in your pool.
"background worker.exe" --algorithm x11 -o stratum+tcp://europe1.darkcoin.miningpoolhub.com:20465 -u SantiagoMartinez.1 -p x -I d --gl 20

Confiscate his coins.

mytrezor website is unusable. It freezes and few moments later browser tells me that trezor plugin is not responding. I can't even click on the "Support" link. Both firefox and chrome act the same way. Both trezor plugged in and plugged out.
I wish graphs were flatlining when it's offline. Right now you have to look at timestamps, adjust the timezone and daylight saving in your head and and compare minutes to my real clock and still I'm not sure if exchange is trading or not 
I shut my 5830's down a few weeks ago. Too much heat and power cost for the current price/difficulty.
Doesn't make any sense. If you look the last year then right now it's extremely profitable to mine with GPU. 
Every time exchange rate rises I take out my calculator and and multiply amount of bitcoins I have, feels good 
Let me break the news for you: it's only numbers on your calculator. Unless you sell your coins, you've got zero dollars/euros/dinars/whatever.There is one weakness of it, which I hope someone can invalidate. Suppose I'm a car-dealer and I buy 1 car for 100 BTC from my supplier. By the time I can sell it to a customer, I can only ask 95 BTC for it, because of deflation. Now everyone argues that isn't a problem, because the prices at my supplier also have dropped with the same amount, so I can buy a new one there for 95 BTC, and again have 1 car in stock, and don't suffer any losses. But if I did absolutely nothing I would still have 100 BTC, so why should I work hard as a car-dealer instead of hoarding?
I can't see why this would be good for Bitcoin. People said that it's good because it forces merchants to keep their stocks low, or produce goods only on-demand. But then you're asking merchants to change the way they have been doing business for decades, which seems unlikely to happen.
So how can Bitcoin solve this problem for merchants?
This is true if you have hyperdeflation and your business's profit margin is 0%.I can't see why this would be good for Bitcoin.

Lets take a scenario where annual deflation is 5% and you take 5% cut of each car sold. You have BTC100. First month you buy BTC100 car and sell a month later. Car costs now BTC99.5 due to the deflation. To take your cut you sell it for BTC104.5.
(BTC100- 5% / 12months)* 1.05 = BTC104.5
Pocket the BTC4.5 and buy another BTC100 car. Do that for 1 year and you end up with BTC154. If you count in the deflation you are now 58% richer.
If you didn't do anything then you are only 2% richer.
Think name similarity to bit-pay makes more harm than good. Instead of getting piece of bit-pay fame for free, it really feels like fake copy of the real thing.
Imagine if there was new payment processor in ebay. You won your auction and clicked a link to to pay through "PaycPal.com". It would feel like scam to me.

AbelsFire's example is good because it's pure logic and mathematics. You can obscure with different "economy" schemes all you want but in the end, someone in the 100 people economy will get scammed if you add up the numbers.
My rev1 is way louder than HD5970 in free air. Maybe it's not louder but it makes that annoying whine. HD5970 just makes simple and neutral hiss sound.
I have 11 GPU-s whirring and single BFL made the noise considerably louder.
It has two large fans and one tiny fan in the middle. This design does not look good.
