Why does not Futurama make a kickstarter fucking page.

Dude, read a book -- you will not find science fiction in film form.

Ah, so basically, casual porn shot with Academy 35 mm. is basically a par for the course ? Gotcha ! :P

Add to that they worship Undead and the state of Undeath, also they worship the process of eating the literal flesh of their undead, zombie Messiah.

Also, in the end of days, it is said that they all (the believers) will become, literally, undead.

Creepy, creepy cult once you cull out the bullshit.

"Once" is not "when". "When" is definitive, "once" can be speculative.

Really ? I doubt they can lose much value at all, being a deflationary currency, save for total protocol/algorithm compromise.

Value of currency is in the eye of the users, and people are using it more and more (really ! the drug scare is just a tiny tip of the iceberg of all BTC transactions).

FWIW

OK, upon further thought, I made an error wherein I allowed for 50 % reduction in hashing rate but not 50 % reduction in power draw. Also, your power cost would be lower or higher, I have no idea.

In the end, it is viable, but the headache and amount of work, especially at such scale, would not be worth it (and I am really serious about fires, in the offices, and the potential of such - where would you put extra ~1500 KiloWatts or heat ?).

This is anything but green, if we could mine bitcoins withn idle CPU looks we'd all already be (bitcoin)millinaires.

s/~21600 KH/h/~21600 KW/h

Let's say a single, ATIx7xx (or better) graphics carded desktop (anything else is not price-effective) consumes ~250 Watt on idle (reasonable estimate).

Let's say you mine with it - you now consume ~350-550 Watt per desktop, let's say, average of 150 Watt per desktop increase.

With 18000 desktops, that would be, if we are careful with time allocation, (8 hours x 150 Watt x 18000 desktops) / 1000 KW/h increase in power consumption, per night.

That is ~21600 KH/h increase in power consumption per night, or 648000 KW/h increase in power consumption per month.

Now, as it is (and it is a floating, quicksand value), 1 GH/s gives you ~2-2.5 BTC per month.

150 Watts of low-medium ranged ATI card gives you ~100 MH/s, (which you want to run @ 50%, for your offices will catch fire, and no, I am not kidding). So that is ~50 MH/s optimistic value per desktop (remember, provided they are optimally equipped, that is, ATI x7xx cards or better).

50 MH/s x 18000 desktops per month is 900 GH/s per month. That would amount to ~1800 BTC, which go by $70-80 right now, say $75. So a profit of 135000 $ if you somehow can convert them to useable (spendable) form.

Now take 135000 bucks per month and substract from that 648000
KW/h per month (where I live 1 KW/h is about 20 american cents).

So you substract from 135000, 129600 Dollars for electricity, and you are left with 5400 Dollars profit (provided you have god like ability to convert that amount of bitcoins to real, useable currency at such rates).

So, in perfect world conditions, yes it breaks even, barely.

Sorry if there were any crude errors, but you get the point.

Because BTC mining with CPUs is barely worth (maybe not even, with current diff increases & 25 BTC block value) the electricity price of doing so, and using more thn 50% of desktop GPU power for mining is a very good way to overheat the card. It would only work if all the desktops have semi-recent ATI cards and you know what you're doing (because office desktops are often dusty and prone to overheating).

A thousand undedicated computers is really nothing in BTC mining compared to one (1) dedicated rig.

At first I thought this was elaborate troll and USPS is discriminating on the likeness of the word "atheist" - then I saw that project site properly spells "atheist".

and logically, I am thinking you do not respect other peoples reading time by just writing random stuff.

BW in fact has 8 Protoss missions, 8 + 1 alternate Terran mission, and 10 + 1 secret Zerg mission.

so BW has 28 missions in total.

Wrong.

SC1 had 10 Terran, 10 Zerg and 10 Protoss missions.

SC1: Brood War, otoh, had 10 Protoss missions, 8 Terran missions and 8 + 1 secret Zerg mission.

At least be factual when you "correct" other people.
