Hi so basically this is PoW cpu asic/gpu monero like mining? With io SSD?
2018-11-05 02:31:21
THX 1138 4EB
any idea why i would be getting "[2018-11-05 02:29:52] INFO snowblossom.miner.PoolMiner printStats we seem to be stalled, reconnecting to node" error message?
2018-11-05 02:31:50
Fireduck
Zero hash rate
2018-11-05 02:32:02
Fireduck
Probably becuase of not reaching a pool
2018-11-05 02:35:19

@Daeng snowblossom's bottle necks are mainly storage io, but then cpu if storage io is fast enough.

are you still on snowfield 7?
2018-11-05 02:41:51
Fireduck
snowfield 7 is still the current field
2018-11-05 02:44:33
THX 1138 4EB
i'll try updating my software
2018-11-05 02:44:48
THX 1138 4EB
i tried switching pool and that didnt help

Any plan for fireduck or other "early" adopters to sell SNOW to cover exchange listing or any other costs?
2018-11-05 02:44:55
THX 1138 4EB
not sure how long it's been this way
2018-11-05 02:45:18
Fireduck
@Truise there was no exchange listing cost
2018-11-05 02:45:25
Truise
Future ones?
2018-11-05 02:45:25
Fireduck
only big cost is this slack, actually
2018-11-05 02:45:39
THX 1138 4EB
isnt Discord free?
2018-11-05 02:45:47
Fireduck
I can only speak for myself, but I'm not paying an exchange listing fee, ever
2018-11-05 02:45:54
Fireduck
I don't like Discord
2018-11-05 02:46:44
Truise
If Snow starts snowballing, are you planning on market selling or are you just going to HODL forever?
2018-11-05 02:47:14
Truise
Cause that's some big wallets. I know it is not my right to know but just curious if there is a statement like that or anything?
2018-11-05 02:50:11
Truise
"Eventually going to increase the block size" no trade off on centralization correct?
2018-11-05 02:51:19
Fireduck
With a larger block size, people might not be able to run a node on an actual potato
2018-11-05 02:51:45
Fireduck
but I don't see a centralization problem with larger blocks, as long as you are still talking about tens of mb
2018-11-05 02:52:13
Fireduck
I am not the largest snow holder, I don't even think I am in top three
2018-11-05 02:54:10
Fireduck
I have no immediate plans on selling, this is a long term fun project for me
2018-11-05 02:54:18
Fireduck
an actual challenge
2018-11-05 02:56:25
Truise
Godspeed Fireduck

@Truise fireduck and I combined are likely not top three.
2018-11-05 03:01:51
Daeng
Hey top three whales please make snowblossom brainlet friendly
2018-11-05 03:01:57
Daeng
Help*
2018-11-05 03:03:12

Yes please top three whales make it cool

Fireduck
Some folks are throwing some decent money minging snowblossom
2018-11-05 03:12:05
THX 1138 4EB
that's kind of centralising
2018-11-05 03:14:44
Clueless
@THX 1138 4EB nah.
2018-11-05 03:15:49
Fireduck
@THX 1138 4EB is your clock off on mining computer?
2018-11-05 03:16:02
Fireduck
That could result in what you are seeing maybe
2018-11-05 03:16:48
THX 1138 4EB
the time is correct for my geographic location
2018-11-05 03:17:06
THX 1138 4EB
daylight savings started on sunday last week, i think
2018-11-05 03:26:55
Fireduck
Utc is all that matters
2018-11-05 03:30:08
Fireduck
I need to add some better diagnostic output to pool miner
2018-11-05 03:42:02
THX 1138 4EB
i would appreciate that!
2018-11-05 03:44:19
Fireduck
Will you be on in a few hours?
2018-11-05 03:56:13
THX 1138 4EB
i think so
2018-11-05 04:16:03
Fireduck
I'll try to have an update for you soon after I get this child to bed
2018-11-05 04:16:22
THX 1138 4EB
awesome! thanks!
2018-11-05 05:24:04
Fireduck
@THX 1138 4EB can you update from master in github and run that?
2018-11-05 12:35:35
Alexander
Can I do CPU mining?

Nop
2018-11-05 12:47:25
THX 1138 4EB
Sorry; I fell asleep! If I download the github master does that mean I have to compile it?
2018-11-05 12:50:47
THX 1138 4EB
I downloaded the master zip file. I'm using Windows 10 though
2018-11-05 13:40:04
Bibi187
Yeap you have to compile this one. Release don't seems up to date :wink:
2018-11-05 13:40:23
Bibi187
I bet Fireduck assume you using linux a git pull will be much more easy
2018-11-05 15:20:51
Fireduck
Ha. You can grab unofficial build from:

Must say mobile android wallet looks great guys. Can't wait to be able to try it
2018-11-05 16:38:55

2018-11-05 16:41:18

I think about 1M but could be wrong. Pretty new here
2018-11-05 17:49:50
Fireduck
1.3m I think

Invested in snowblossom yesterday and am currently trying to get my head around things. Excited at what I've seen so far.

i dont suppose that makes it much clearer what's gone wrong?
2018-11-05 22:05:57
Fireduck
that does actually
2018-11-05 22:06:07
Fireduck
"No valid work unit"
2018-11-05 22:06:15
Fireduck
it is not reaching a pool or your time is way off
2018-11-05 22:06:25
Fireduck
can you run 'date -u' ?
2018-11-05 22:06:53
THX 1138 4EB
PS C:\Users\seanv> date -u Mon Nov 5 22:06:44 UTC 2018
2018-11-05 22:07:04
Fireduck
ok, that is correct
2018-11-05 22:07:25
Fireduck
what pool are you using?
2018-11-05 22:07:43
THX 1138 4EB
ive tried with vauxhall and http://snowday.fun
2018-11-05 22:08:03
Rotonen
has snowday been actually on for months now?

vauxhall seems to have at least found two blocks in the past week
2018-11-05 22:09:07
Fireduck
try snowblossom.hamster.science
2018-11-05 22:09:14
Fireduck
vauxhall seems to be down for me as well
2018-11-05 22:09:23
Fireduck
so a working pool would be best bet
2018-11-05 22:10:01
Fireduck
without the http://
2018-11-05 22:10:12

stupid chrome hiding things and putting them in the paste

oh thats all it was

@THX 1138 4EB sorry, snowday is offline right now.
2018-11-05 22:11:21

updates the wiki
2018-11-05 22:11:29
THX 1138 4EB
i assumed snowday would be working and when that didnt i figured my miner was broken or something
2018-11-05 22:11:48
Clueless
I should probably make a policy for removing pools from the wiki. For now I think I'll do a strikethrough if I can.
2018-11-05 22:12:19
Rotonen
dunno if the wiki should point at pools at all
2018-11-05 22:12:57
THX 1138 4EB
i wouldnt have known where else to look than the wiki
2018-11-05 22:13:33
THX 1138 4EB
at some point the software should allow failovers through a list of pools, i think
2018-11-05 22:13:35
Rotonen
the block explorer, most pools leave block remarks
2018-11-05 22:13:54
Rotonen
no idea whose pool `POOL` is, but i love the name
2018-11-05 22:14:41
fydel
i think it is a solo miner.
2018-11-05 22:40:44

Failover is in progress
