I use local bit coins and I don't deposit on site. I just contact and send bitcoins directly.. From my wallet... Like it should be.

BitcoinTalk "Server compromised due to social engineering against ISP NFOrce" by drhelmutp in Bitcoin

[–]goldcakes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Which snapshot do you recover to? How do you know which one would be the correct one? What if the attacker changed the DB so they are an admin? What if the attacker included a malicious payload?

It doesn't matter if you remotely back it up or not, you need to actually manually comb through the backup and check it.

Just like the manipulated LIBOR price, now Wall Street and HSBC can manipulate the price of bitcoin with just a few packets!

WTF?!? Isn't it against the law to use public funds for political campaigning?!

It has been shown that many apps, including Facebook, send back ALL smses you receive however.

I will bet that data retention will be extended by 2 years, every two years.

I'm honestly considering joining the pirate party right now.

Yes, our AU pipe is 400mbit and we will get more nodes when it becomes saturated.

Wall Street is using Bitcoin, not just the blockchain. by valkenburgh in Bitcoin

[–]goldcakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just imagining a future where you trade shares with a single transaction.

Inputs: * 200 colored coins of XYZ (from party A) * 0.15 BTC (from party B)

Outputs: * 200 colored coins (to party B) * 0.15 BTC (to party A)

The two parties can sign the transaction after verifying it, and transactions in bitcoin are only accepted after all inputs sign it.

What are the best supports for this update? by Stringbean5 in DotA2

[–]goldcakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crystal Maiden was slightly buffed and she's pretty good, depends on the lane-up IMO. I don't think this update really changed the meta surrounding supports, other than that they'll have a lot more gold (due to player-based rubberbanding) and aghs for everyone :P

Sydney set to lose out on public transport infrastructure as pressure mounts to recycle assets by trish1975 in australia

[–]goldcakes 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is sad. If you increase public transport funding, there will logically be less cars on roads, and less road funding will necessary. But the rich don't use public transport, why would this government care?!

GetFlix VPN experiences? by mcmelonhead in australia

[–]goldcakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started a new VPN service, we use top notch providers and don't throttle / oversell. Here are some testfiles: AU UK NL

We should max out most connections :)

A raspberry pi should have enough processing power for it to stop being a bottleneck, one other aspect is TCP / UDP. If your VPN provider offers you a choice and UDP is not blocked on your network, then definitely use UDP as TCP has performance issues.
