So tired of hearing "But guys, you can't make predictions because you don't know how many units ship per day!"

Anyway, my optimistic guess is that Singles and Little Singles make it out of 2012 by the end of September. Jallapenos are dead in the water with some bullshit excuse about outsourcing for shutting the line down. Minirigs... who knows. I've heard something about them shipping out singles equivalents to fulfill minirig orders because minirigs take too long to build (my guess is it's something related to testing and QA... you can pull low-performing individual singles out of production after burn-in or perhaps even flash the firmware to convert them to little singles, but you have to actually open up a minirig to find and replace low-performing boards)

Mini-rigs are dead, they are only producing them if you say NO to 8 singles.

Of course the problem with that will be when they run out of cases and/or power supplies for actual singles orders.

Check earlier in this thread and you will see my predictions for the end of September.

BFL placed a alien asic pods underneath their hotel beds...

lol

People that visit bfl hq don't leave unchanged it seems. A talented forked tongued propaganda minister most likely.

After my visit there I was TRANSFORMED so much that I made this site:

And..........................................

A link and the story was posted on this very forum on May 7, 2013:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/my-visit-to-butterfly-labs-today-198508

Wait a minute.............."May 7", you say?

Yep.

May 7, 2013.

The warning was clear but went mostly unheeded.

Sorry about that!

My $.02.

Inaba_Josh got tired of fighting the truth here so he made a shrewd move and bought two ex-naysayers to be Shills.

BFL can't buy us all off now can they?


They can, but I am a pricey shill. I require payment even for looking in your direction.

I don't see either one as shills, frankly I think PG went more in the BFL direction and BCP went more in the opposite direction but that is just one mans opinion.



PG went from most-vocal to telling-silence.

At what cost?

Tales abound about Zerlan being anti-BFL until a visit to their company.

What are they, a bunch of Harpies?

Sirens?

What Weds will look like (assuming they don't restart Jalapenos)

Wednesday, Sept 18, 2013 Shipping Update

Jalapenos 4.5 and 5 gh/s: Feb 14, 2013

Little Singles 30 and 25 gh/s: Dec 4, 2012

Singles 60 and 50 gh/s: Oct 15, 2012 pay date

MiniRigs: August 15 (1st 500 g/s units), July 20 orders (2nd 500 gh/s) and
June 27 orders (3rd 500 gh/s unit)

Or they can do a big push on Mini-Rigs but either way, if you add up the combined dates moved forward by all three product likes (LS, S and MR) they will equal about 21 days.

Problem is they need 21 days PER product line to make the end of September 2013 (so they have 1/3 the manpower they need right now or they need to get 3 times faster than they are)  Grin

Jalapenos 4.5 and 5 gh/s: Feb 14, 2013

Little Singles 30 and 25 gh/s: Nov. 27, 2012

Singles 60 and 50 gh/s: Oct 3, 2012 pay date

MiniRigs: August 15 (1st 500 g/s units), July 20 orders (2nd 500 gh/s) and
June 27 orders (3rd 500 gh/s unit)

You laughed at my predictions, but they are right on so far.

Here is the secret. They have the manpower to ship combined between 20 and 21 pay dates each day

This will ebb and flow a bit every day until March when it will hit a brick wall.

@ bcp19

There is something they probably didn't teach you at the navy. There are two types of people.

The types that make up their mind first, then look for evidence to support it.

and

The types that see evidence from which an opinion is formed.

=================================

The looming question is, if you see evidence contrary to your formed opinion, how do you react?

An open minded person will change their mind based on the new evidence.
A closed minded person will continue to be of a certain opinion despite evidence to the contrary.

You sir are closed minded. (A definitive statement)
Even after evidence comes forth, you continue to believe as if driven by inertia.
Anything contrary to your core opinion cannot change.
You have shown this to be true again and again.
Actually, the open-minded person will look at things from both sides, not blindly follow the party line.  If I were as truly close-minded as you think I am, I would be the one putting people down and deriding them for their decisions.  The only time I have stooped to that level was in order to try and make a point when someone went so overboard even the biggest trolls were rolling their eyes, but it was often lost on the individual.  I am merely pointing out that you are stuck looking at this from one unwavering position and refuse to even take a step 1 millimeter to the left or right to see if it changes your point of view.  You are the truly close-minded one.

As your signature states openly:

"I embrace my inner Kool-Aid" --bcp19
ROFL. Yea, and I even changed my profile pic to the cover of the Cherry Kool-Aid package.  I'd try to explain sarcasm to you, but I feel I'd be fighting a losing battle.

[Ok ..thats so cool...

I tried to have a conversation with you but....alas the truth is not why you are here ...

So this is what it is... IRL people just ignore you ... so u come on here a total noob & defend the most indifensable company there is just so you can get some form of human interaction....

I take it back you may not be a moron but their is something broken & missing in your life that this is what you do ...

Good luck with that

I promise I will never engage with you again as I will not feed your dysfunction....(also its totally pointless)

BTW you may be feeding some missing part of your life with this game ...meanwhile 1000's of peopel who may have taken out loans (stupid but it happens) on the promises made by BFL

The human component of all this "GAME" is the suffering of familys including children ....so look in the mirror at what you are doing as their is a cost to everything in life

Good bye & Good luck


Actually, you've never tried to hold a conversation with me, you generally act superior and use put-downs.  That was part of the reason I kept referring you to a doctor for so long.

The main problem here, is that too many people enjoy the drama so much they need to manufacture it if none is present.  The titles of these threads show just how far people are willing to go just to create more.

To me, there is a quote the sums everything up... "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity or incompetance."  This is a quote ignored by 95% of the people who post in these threads simply because they prefer to believe in the malice and not to consider other options.

I've kept an open mind on things, and when asked have given blunt answers to how I feel about certain things.  To me, the worst thing anyone can do is to close their mind and blindly create or repeat things just for the sake of spreading the drama and creating FUD.

One of the things you may want to consider: BFL has tens of thousands of customers.  I'd say less than 1% of them post or read these forums.  In all likelyhood less than 10% even read BFL's forums.  In reality you are spreading the word to those who are already disillusioned and really not making that much of a difference.

In reality, I am not the one seeking interaction, all of the people who find meaningless little nuggets and post them like it's a competition to see who can find something that can create the most drama are the real attention seekers.  I look at the ignore bar under my name daily and it amazes me how many people prefer to close their minds and refuse to consider other options.  It's their right, but I prefer to read everything and I am willing to accept when I am wrong and move on.

They can buy me off here is how.


1. Refund everyone who asks.
2. Do not post misleading advertisements.
3. Be transparent.

Shit... how about just following these rules https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3024895 for doing business with the community?

A mad dog need to be put down...... BFL definitely qualify for this

Good I am glad we have got that 100% cleared up that u are indeed a sycophant
There is no point trying to converse with you as a rock with moss has the mental capability of reason & understanding by a 10 x magnitude more than yourself.....
There is something really wrong with you & I wont be apart of your dysfunction any longer.....BFL are the devil & you are the devils helper
Good luck with That   Wink
The thing you refuse to understand is the what is often labeled as malice in truth ends up being inexperience or incompetance.  You view every problem and mistake as an intentional method to put the screws to customers.  Thus, in truth, you're deluded, because you are looking at things through muddied glasses and refuse to clean them.


I am a MORON !
You are harsh on yourself.

Read above ...
Ah, I see.
