Good I hope I can follow this somewhere though. Need to get that new shot of Lisk.

I hope we get a link to view the talk later.

You don't have to wait long, Tomorrow Max speaks at a blockchain conference.
And I think there are many messages about it.

Can't wait for this update! Thanks Max

It depends on the contents to cover. 

Lisk needs to penetrate Javascript community, we should get on their forums and educate them about LISK.

germans in all their glory =) btw, cause its more marketing post..it should be due dill'ed very carefully to maximize profit from such posts (in terms of price, audience coverage, new investors and developers interest etc.)

Don't say sorry, CEOs don't say sorry. Did Steve Jobs create the biggest company in the world
by saying sorry every time he was late? NO!
When the Russians were approaching the Fuhrerbunker did Adolf say sorry for the delay to fortify the city? NO! He marched on.
MARCH ON MAXIMILIAN! Für das LISK!

because when the going gets tough... THE TOUGH GET GOING!

No sorry needed!

Not sure if I'm right with that, but I see the fact that you believe it's important to give it to others for a review as a good sign. Most likely you wouldn't see a reason for that if you wouldn't have something interesting. ;-) 

How hard can it be to just post a blog post about your china trip

All is well @Max.
You've done a great job so far. And in my opinion it is not so important if the blog-article comes in 3, 4 or 6 days.

70% done. Will finish it up within 2 days and send it to a few people to check it. Sorry for the delay.

Bottom already touched 
We now go only up 

When will the bottom be reached?

Wasn't there a plan to publish a blog-article about the china-trip?

Yeah Lisk isn't that fase yet at the moment they are working mostly on security and stability of the network. While Isabella is doing a great job keeping the 101 delegates up.

edit. That being said they are searching for Blockchain App developers

Spreading the word to Javascript programmers could be very usefull i guess but Lisk isn't yet in a phase where you could deploy Dapps, am i wrong?
I think it's better to wait for Lisk to grow up a little before starting the "underground marketing" 

Troll got served. Well a troll will always be a troll regardless if he's alone or not. Let him be

IMHO, if you need a "preconfigured" Raspberry Pi 3 to become a delegate, / run a node, you probably shouldn't be one / do that.  

If you REALLY intend to use a small board computer (SBC) to run a node (and not a hosting service like Vultr or Digital Ocean, which is probably a better idea for several reasons ), then a MUCH better choice is an ODROID XU4 and not a Raspberry Pi 3.   The XU4 has 8 cores running at 2GHz / 1.4 Ghz;  the Pi3 has 4 cores running at 1.2 Ghz.  The XU4 has Gigabit Ethernet;  the Pi3 doesn't.  The XU4 has a faster eMMC memory chip option;  the Pi3 is stuck with slower microSD.  The XU4 has 2GB of RAM;  the Pi3 has half that.

Once you get a XU4 (which uses the same software OS as its earlier XU3 version) you can load it with Ubuntu Server ubuntu-14.04lts-server-odroid-xu3-20150725.img.xz from http://odroid.in/ubuntu_14.04lts/ using the instructions at http://odroid.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:odroid_flashing_tools .  After that, just install Lisk following instructions from here:  https://lisk.io/documentation?i=lisk-docs/BinaryInstall

As an aside, The Pi 3 is most often compared (as a loser) to the new ODROID C2 rather than the XU4, However, the C2 uses the armv8 architecture and so cannot run the current ARM version of the Lisk code, which is the  armv7 used by Pi3 and XU4.  Once Lisk is compiled for armv8 then the C2 is probably the best SBC choice for running Lisk sidechains; for now it's the XU4.

There really are no direct comparisons between the Pi3 and the XU4.  You have to first realize the C2 "beats" the Pi3, and then realize the XU4 "beats" the C2.  The XU4 is a year "older" than the newer C2 design, but ODROID's XU series is some heavy-duty gear with incredible specs that were not beaten by the cheap-as-possible C2 Pi-killer.  Some googling on various Pi3 / C2 / XU4 review articles will show you what I mean.  

I still think there is a place for $9 C.H.I.P computers in the Lisk sidechain world, too....

Let's spread the word, because with the best programmers great things can be developed.
