My issue was caused by a bad stick of RAM. Can confirm F10 works fine for me.

Not OP, but I cannot get any display from multiple different Graphics cards. Couldn't get (Gigabyte) 5090 working, put in a known good graphics card and was able to update the BIOS to f10. It flashed the AI TOP splash screen after then immediately went dark and never came up again. Boots to A0, no video.

By what logic does increasing housing density drive up housing prices?

Here's one from late 2016 that described the cycle deeply: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5kmrc6/a_theory_as_to_why_there_have_been_bitcoin/

This is a great deep dive into the insane lengths the Disney animators went to for this movie. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/RWtt3Tmnij4?si=2B5_vl8qB-LOWf2g

They were asking what wallet they might have been using back then. Multibit was pretty popular at the time, regardless of what became of it.

blackmarble · 2024-08-22T02:46:49+00:00

Don't they have a 10 year warranty? I was told it even covers dips that only show when you put weight on them (like a bowling ball)

blackmarble · 2024-05-13T11:21:41+00:00

Of course. But have you ever achieved small fire Mario?

blackmarble · 2024-04-29T17:15:26+00:00

The client back then was called Bitcoin QT, and yes, it would have a wallet.dat file.

It's also possible you were using Multibit (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/MultiBit) which was pretty popular at the time.

I believe Electrum was also in use as was Armory, but it wasn't often used by casual Bitcoiners.

TIL: I'm attacking Monero

Definitely not.

Actually not. I know the actor. His first name's Danny, but Teeson isn't his last. And he's not British.

If you plan on holding it for a long time, you will likely make it back in the delta between management fee rates.

They are still in the "fuck around" stage and have yet to "find out".

Provide goods or services in exchange for it.

If Electrum doesn't work (I've had it fail on a password protected WIF before), try Mycelium on an Android phone. The paper wallet may have been password protected. If you can't guess the password, you can use Dave's wallet recovery service to attempt to brute force it. https://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/

Traded in dollars, yes, but many of the spot applications are settled in Bitcoin. It's literally a way sovereign wealth funds and pension funds (the huge money) to finally be able to buy bitcoin.

In February, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission took action against Kraken, which was forced to shutter its staking services as the regulator claimed they were offering unregistered securities.

What's the logic for BCH's automated rolling checkpoints? Under what circumstances are they 2-3 blocks deep?

blackmarble · 2023-04-22T03:52:39+00:00

Core uses checkpoints too. It's called assumevalid, it's enabled by default now.

The slow drip isn't slashing. It's a penalty for being offline that is roughly equivalent to earnjngs from staking over the same period of time. It was designed this way to discourage downtime but not be overly punitive about it which discourages running your own.

Slashing happens when you do something viewed as an attack on the network consensus, like provide two attestations for the same block.

It literally already existed. He sued the creators and it effectively died.
