02:35:18 <xmrpow> Inge: Sorry but I have to disappoint you :-D Im not mining monero with it.

03:45:23 <needmoney90> lol
03:45:25 <needmoney90> im dead
03:52:03 <jwinterm> how can I buy seven rightnow?
03:53:53 <jwinterm> their website is many slows
07:32:26 <Inge-> needmoney90: 360 Th Bitcoin mining 550w? Dat's a SKAM
19:19:27 <xmrpow> It is back: 82oiMVmcV8W7yhWeK2hiDZLVNxwHcugNafCSzk9Zbs3p645n7gbHqf4TKHXrMTHXYPQffgZ9TUebKTr5ZfRN5arV4Vjtvko
19:19:40 <xmrpow> Splitting hashrate between minexmr and supportxmr
19:20:25 <selsta> what kind of hashrate this time?
19:20:46 <xmrpow> Im not sure if it is changing pool right now
19:21:08 <selsta> at this point stolen CC is most likely IMO
19:21:08 <xmrpow> should be round about 500 mhs
19:21:29 <selsta> though not sure what kind of limit there are with azure
19:22:01 <selsta> I would expect that some kind of verification is required to scale up at a certain point
19:24:23 <xmrpow> Hmm, maybe they didnt run out of credits and are always just trying to maximize profit by pumping hashrate within a short timeframe.
19:24:37 <xmrpow> This is going on for few weeks now.
19:25:36 <xmrpow> 600 mhs
19:25:38 <Snipa> Certianly is on AWS.
19:25:49 <xmrpow> Why?
19:25:57 <Snipa> The verification comment, not where he is.
19:26:14 <Snipa> AWS requires a bunch of verification when you start scaling out massively.  I'm sure Azure's the same way.
19:26:21 <selsta> right, this guy used Azure last time
19:26:50 <Snipa> There's also comical options, like; He's the dude at Azure that can allow you to get increases.
19:27:32 <xmrpow> Has sb tried to contact people at aws or azure?
19:27:46 <selsta> yes, m5m400 did with all this guys infos
19:27:51 <selsta> but azure never replied
19:29:04 <xmrpow> Maybe they decided by themself to maximize profit by mining at idle time;-)
19:29:40 <xmrpow> But I rly dont think they bother about these peanuts.
19:32:32 <xmrpow> Are there any calculations how much you can earn on top if you are always flooding the hashrate with such high hashrate in a short time?
19:41:30 <hyc> if they're clever and bounce the hashrate, they can earn quite a lot.
19:42:01 <hyc> throw in a ton of hashrate before the network can adjust difficulty in response; when the difficulty rises, divert computes to something else
19:42:10 <hyc> come back again when difficulty falls back down, rinse & repeat
19:43:01 <hyc> yeah, would be funny if it's just a bored M$ employee
19:44:39 <hyc> it is still for certain not a supercomputer installation; all of those have waiting lists months long, researchers waiting to use them
19:58:08 <M5M400> hyc: please don't spell it out for them. they might start doing this on purpose actually
20:00:26 <hyc> plenty of groups have already been doing that
20:00:33 <hyc> I would think it's common knowledge by now
20:01:34 <M5M400> well, our guy seems to be very inexperienced
20:01:45 <M5M400> and happy the way it works for him right now
20:02:17 <hyc> maybe he really just works for M$, and nobody cares that he's using otherwise-idle cycles
20:03:03 <M5M400> maybe. but unless he also works in the abuse response team, they don't care either way
20:11:35 <moneromooo> Odd, I'd have thought Microsoft would have an abuse team, but not an abuse response one.
20:11:56 <M5M400> I may just have used the wrong term
20:12:20 <moneromooo> Probably not. I don't miss an opportunity to put the boot in MS.
20:12:22 <M5M400> or I just missed the joke
20:12:25 <M5M400> yeah
20:12:30 <M5M400> seems I did :
20:12:43 <Snipa> Just remember.  Microsoft Works!
20:12:44 <Snipa> :D
20:13:00 <M5M400> well, their cloudmining offer seems to be rock solid
20:13:02 <moneromooo> Remember. Microsoft works, just.
20:13:05 <M5M400> so there's that.
20:13:19 <Snipa> And can't forget Windows Cement.
20:13:25 <moneromooo> Solid as a rock, dumb as a rock.
20:13:31 <Snipa> ^
20:13:40 <moneromooo> I didn't get that one...
20:13:47 <Snipa> Windows CE-ME-NT.
20:14:00 <moneromooo> Ah.
20:14:33 <Snipa> I've been migrating servers for the last week, I might have gone slightly insane. :)
20:14:47 <Inge-> yeah yeah, blame it on the servers
20:15:05 <Snipa> It's that or the monero merges.  Your choice :P
20:19:24 <M5M400> hehe
