    Syfy probably did a two season deal to began with like they did with Stargate universe. Makes sense, will drive sales of the mmo.

    I thought Sanderson did a decent job. Certainly made me want to read sanderson's other works. Would be worth the read just to finish out the series

    Grimm

    Grimm was up 54% in the ratings from its latest Friday showing, It got a 2.0 but was down from a 3.7 that the Voice got. Still that doubled that ready for love show that NBC pulled.

    Only thing I would add to Passenger's is that it is possible to hack bitcoins with a 51% attack. Meaning if you control 51% of the network's hashing power, it would be possible for you to double spend bitcoins. One of the strength's of bitcoins is that every single coin, every transaction, is...

    It's been renewed for season 3. Hopefully the move to Tuesday opens it up to a wider audience.

    I have 3 of those ordered, hopefully I get mine soon but I didn't order until August 31st, so not too hopefully I'll get mine before mid-may. Sounds like the 25 g/h and 50 g/h won't be shipped until they get new pcb boards to deal with power issues they have. I originally thought that if the...

    If you switch, you'll be defaulted to pay-per last n-share, which is a 3% fee vs, pay-per share that is a 5% fee. With pplns you'll get a higher variance but a lower fee. For instance, 48 hours ago, I was making .07btc with pplns, the last 24 hours, I'm down to .05btc. So the variance within a...

    So far I have had no issue with connecting to btcguild. I think eleuthria has said he wants to shut down getwork to help with the 51% problem. If I ever get my asic from BFL, I don't know if I'll stick with his pool or not, just to help with the concerns of hitting 51% of the network. I do...

    I'm just going by what eleuthria has said about getwork and stratrum. He has said that the getwork servers get attacked more often than the stratrum servers. It looks like the eu-stratrum servers got hit yesterday with an attack. The great thing about eleuthria is that he honestly seems to care...

    Btcguild is decommissioning the getwork servers because they are so prone to ddos. Stratum seems more resistant to them.

    Lower transaction fees might make it more attractive to a business owner. Would probably make international transactions easier. That's about all I can think of but someone must think they can make money off of it.

    There are a lot of bit coin projects in the works that could mainstream it, a bit coin credit card, bitcoin ATM's, things like that. More online stores are starting to use them but currently the only real value bit coins have is money laundering, drug sales and a speculative currency. As...

    Mtgox does that for money laundering purposes. If you get verified, you can withdrawal $10k a day, you can sell however much you want though

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I've only ever used mtgox, so I don't have any experience with other exchanges. I've found it is pretty straight forward to use. I'd get a dwolla account that you can use for fund your account if you use mtgox but to fund your account could take a few days. With withdrawals I don't seem to have...

    The pool I mine at, btcguild was hit with a ddos this morning, owner thinks is it was being done in conjunction with market manipulation in order to slow the ability of people to withdraw coins to cash out during the crash.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I guess that's the problem in such a small market as bitcoins, easy to manipulate the price. From what I read someone did that with namecoins a few weeks ago, dumped 50btc into it and then people ran to it and he sold out for a decent profit. I would hope mtgox would fix the issue passenger...

    At the current price, gpu mining is still worth it. At current prices I'm making $400 a month with my 1 g/h. I do have 3 jalapeno's on order, so hopefully they ship soon. I wouldn't buy a GPU just to mine but if you're going to do some gaming, might as well get one that will help pay for itself...

    Well it does have all the classic signs of a bubble, its got to pop sooner or later. I don't think there are any merged mining pools. I know BTC guild won't mine both bitcoin and litecoin, mostly because litecoin is cpu friendly. He did do namecoin for a while but that's a dead project so he...

    Bitcoin is at $209. Bubble has got to pop sooner rather than later. Isn't litecoin much more susceptible cpu botnet's than bitcoin is? To be honest I really haven't looked too much into litecoins.

    Well current price is $182, was a high of 194 earlier today. Lot of volatility in the market. I'm wondering if buying and selling might be slightly more profitable than mining but I never try to time the market or hold on to anything I mine. Basically I have a auto pay out set with my pool of 5...

    Bitcoins are at 173. I'm wondering how high it will go before the bubble pops and how low it will go when it does pop. Saw some post on Google+ that a backer of bitcoin had the price between $400 and $500 a coin.

    That's the way I feel too. I've long since paid off the video cards I'm using and I've already paid off the 3 jalapeno's I bought so if I get those before the difficulty really goes up, I should make some decent money.

    Its going to pop sooner rather than later. It is getting a lot of press though, mainly because of the Cyprus banking problems. I did see an article for a bit coin ATM on cnn money yesterday. So its certainly starting to catch on
