Sure you got your free device...have you thanked all the preorder customers that been subsidized so that you could get it before most everyone else?
Well the software driver I wrote is the fastest and best software for mining on the device ... that everyone can have for free
Yeah we can both word it however we like.
I thank you very much for the software, but it doesn't do any of us any good without anything to run it on.
Correct.
However, it also doesn't do any good releasing hardware that doesn't have software to run on it.
The rather obvious reason why developers got Jalapenos first.
Though I don't know what playing chess has to do with bitcoin mining, maybe someone else couldn't work out which forum they were on.
To those with a sense of the situation, it means that you should not gloat that you got free hardware. Nor defend a company (so readily) when their very customers have been largely disenfranchised for a lengthy period of time.
For example, try keeping it "low key".
As usual PL you are a moron.
I am not gloating that I got free hardware. I got hardware that I had to spend a lot of time and effort on to write the software for it (over the last 5 months) that I am giving away for free to everyone else ... and as they get their devices, which is already happening, though not many yet, that software is ready.
It is high key!
I've spent a lot of effort on software for a device I've (not received for free) that everyone can have the best mining software for it for free as soon as they get their devices.
OK I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say something ...
Do you live in some 3rd world communist country where people get paid nothing for their efforts and thus you consider spending time and effort on something as shit and worth nothing thus the way you bandy about that word 'free' over and over again?
Yes, it is called America.
Don't bother answering, coz you have already answered the second half of it and I don't really care where you live.
Consider that you keep defending the lateness of customers packages. Sorry, but you need to cut that shit out....
You are in a privileged position (and don't even have the heart of even a true GNU coder) so don't
bemoan that you give away for free. As always you are a moron with entitlement issues.
