oh no, i need more time to build field 7 :worried:
2018-12-17 02:06:38
mjay
downloading is not an option?
2018-12-17 02:11:14
Fireduck
I doubt we are going to 8 soon
2018-12-17 02:42:46
cryptovape
i was too lazy to torrent
2018-12-17 02:43:19
mjay
you could just wget or use your browser
2018-12-17 02:43:47
cryptovape
wget for torrent or http?
2018-12-17 02:44:36
cryptovape
ah ty
2018-12-17 02:44:54
mjay
a to c, you also need those
2018-12-17 02:46:48
Fireduck
Aria2 can do the torrent from command line
2018-12-17 02:46:56
Fireduck
Or deluge-console
2018-12-17 02:48:04
cryptovape
cool, thx. glad if field 7 sticks around, i hope to get some time in with my maxed out 192gb R610
2018-12-17 02:48:26
Fireduck
Old Dell?
2018-12-17 02:48:30
cryptovape
yup
2018-12-17 02:49:23
cryptovape
i originally got it for biblepay (BOINC research)
2018-12-17 02:49:59
mjay
the R610 also supports 32GB modules
2018-12-17 02:50:17
mjay
if you really want to do this
2018-12-17 02:50:27
cryptovape
:exploding_head:
2018-12-17 02:50:36
mjay
bios update needed
2018-12-17 02:50:46
cryptovape
i seeeeee
2018-12-17 02:51:21
mjay
but probably not worth it, considering the price of 32gb modules
2018-12-17 02:51:48
cryptovape
ah, ok. still i thought for sure it was max 192
2018-12-17 02:51:48
Fireduck
My R600 has 256gb
2018-12-17 02:52:08
cryptovape
oh wow
2018-12-17 02:52:20
mjay
documentation says 192gb, thats right
2018-12-17 02:52:28
mjay
larger modules are not certified
2018-12-17 02:52:31
mjay
but still work
2018-12-17 02:53:08
cryptovape
makes sense, ty
2018-12-17 02:56:44
cryptovape
i always though comps would just refuse to go higher after their limit
2018-12-17 02:57:39
mjay
forget to mention - only registered 32gb dimms
2018-12-17 02:58:02
mjay
large udimms are not supported
2018-12-17 03:00:27
cryptovape
ok, yeah i remember reading only up to 2gb udimm supported so never touched them.
2018-12-17 03:01:00
mjay
i think its 8gb with udimms
2018-12-17 03:01:07
mjay
not sure
2018-12-17 03:01:44
mjay
but registered ones are way cheaper when bought used
2018-12-17 03:03:05
cryptovape
yeah that was the ticket for me.
2018-12-17 07:29:05
fydel
hmm. nethash going down again.
2018-12-17 07:54:21
Fireduck
probably crabs in the articulation matrix
2018-12-17 08:01:28
fydel
yes. i was thinking the same.
2018-12-17 08:02:31
Fireduck
I got upnp working for channels, I should bring that into snowblossom
2018-12-17 08:02:35
Fireduck
but probably doesn't matter
2018-12-17 08:02:55
Fireduck
since snowblossom p2p are greatly bidirectional so as long as your node gets one solid link you are good
2018-12-17 16:37:13
mjay
Looks like miners want to avoid field 8
2018-12-17 16:37:34
mjay
most of them back of when it gets closer
2018-12-17 16:37:43
Fireduck
Yep
2018-12-17 16:37:46
Fireduck
Nerds
2018-12-17 16:38:04
mjay
Miners who already use field 8 keep their hashrate
2018-12-17 16:38:32
mjay
a little hard to identify who uses field 8 as its only visible pool-wise
2018-12-17 16:41:05
mjay
+one lonely miner using field 9
2018-12-17 16:42:04
Fireduck
You see it when a miner gets a block regardless of pool
2018-12-17 16:43:38
Rotonen
@mjay that’s @SidGrip on field 9
2018-12-17 16:43:53
Fireduck
In the found block, you see the field the miner was using
2018-12-17 16:44:15
Fireduck
The pool just passes it along
2018-12-17 16:44:30
mjay
I see the field, and a bunch of addresses who worked for the pool
2018-12-17 16:44:39
mjay
can I see which miner found this block?
2018-12-17 16:44:56
Fireduck
No, but you can see which field it was
2018-12-17 16:45:04
Fireduck
I get what you are saying
2018-12-17 16:45:07
mjay
ah okay
2018-12-17 16:45:14
Fireduck
Can't link it back to a particular miner
2018-12-17 16:45:36
mjay
if its a constant hashrate over a long time I can correlate
2018-12-17 16:46:00
mjay
doing some statistics here
2018-12-17 16:46:25
Fireduck
I wanted to do what I did for HHTT and give the finder a little bonus
2018-12-17 16:46:44
Fireduck
But with the utxo hash get block template is kinda expensive
2018-12-17 16:47:49
mjay
its fine as it is
2018-12-17 16:48:19
Fireduck
But not fun as it could be
2018-12-17 16:48:48
mjay
maybe create a pool that gives all 50 coins to one miner, chances according to shares contributed
2018-12-17 16:51:20
mjay
Thats a fun project :slightly_smiling_face:
2018-12-17 16:51:25
mjay
I'll start
2018-12-17 16:53:06
mjay
lottery pool
2018-12-17 16:54:07
Rotonen
and the house always wins
2018-12-17 16:54:13
mjay
of cause
2018-12-17 16:55:28
Fireduck
Sounds exactly like solo mining
2018-12-17 16:57:16
Fireduck
solo mining, but with friends
2018-12-17 16:57:33
mjay
so something inbetween a regular pool and the lottery pool
2018-12-17 17:00:10
Fireduck
On HHTT I just split the fee with the finder
2018-12-17 17:00:35
mjay
thats maybe the better solution ..
2018-12-17 18:26:37
Rotonen
heh, all sorts of useful things are converging http://www.openucx.org/ OpenUCX is a collaboration between industry, laboratories, and academia to create an open-source production grade communication framework for data centric and high-performance applications.

more like a high performance hamster party
