What is the average number during a normal day of unconfirmed transactions? And what number indicates a problem? Or do we just need to see how long it takes to confirm 4000 transactions? Theoreticaly at 7per second it should still take less then 10 min?

'bout time something interesting happened.
T-47 minutes...
And... the "stress test" has hit a whopping 1,901KB worth of unconfirmed tx. I've seen it be a multiple higher than that on just a random day.

Blockchain Android app sucks:

Basically, under some circumstances the random bits used to generate the key would be fetched from a public website with HTTP. They did not check for HTTP errors or redirects; so, when the site returned a HTML message "please use HTTPS instead of HTTP" they used the first 32 bytes of that message.
And to think that I thought that Dilbert's famous random number generator was just a funny joke.
And to think that, not long ago, they had another incident where hundreds of private keys were revealed, and even some of them collided, because of another RNG bug.
The funniest thing is that the victim and other clients now praise them for the prompt response...
According to this entry in the Bitcoin ledger, the owner of the lucky 1Bn9ReEocMG1WEW1qYjuDrdFzEFFDCq43F address appears to have received almost 34 bitcoins since the January, when the address became active (hat tip to Ars reader Bob Loblaw). Nicholas Weaver, a security researcher at the International Computer Science Institute in Berkeley, California, said it's possible multiple people may have been able to benefit from the error through the use of "tumbler" services designed to obfuscate how bitcoins are spent and received. Still, the at today's rate, the 34 bitcoins are worth about $8,100
Oops - that's a nice little unexpected present isn't it hehe.
I wonder how many people would do the right thing & send the coins back to their rightful owner?
I'd have to, it wouldn't be right to keep them, a lot of people would though unfortunately

h&s pattern completing...
Which h&s pattern?I don't see one.
Must be this dude:
Anyhew, it's not like it matters. The clearest anti dandruff shampoo I ever saw was Feb 15 to Apr 15 this year, and nothing happened.

I'm just impressed to see moms work like that.
That's what any loving mother would feel obligated to do. She is not going to be the most objective person in the world.
I hope something is done or unearthed to address that sentencing. I don't think The Man has been all that objective either.

I just took took a look at the early pages of this thread. Everyone was constructive and positive. Adam wasn't drunk. This really is the post-apocalyptic WO-thread. No wonder there are so many doomsday preppers here.
He moved a ton of drugs, that'll happen. At least in the US.
So does the United States Postal Service.

I think there is a campaign for his release if you want to fight for this prick.

What she's trying to do then is to render the whole investigation invalid because of a technicality. Which makes only sense if you're his mum.

I think Mr Ulbricht was a greedy, unworldly prick who was either too arrogant or too stupid to think through what he was actually doing.
Had he been linking drug consumers directly with poppy and coca farmers and chemists then that's something to applaud. All he was doing was facilitating the existing misery rained down on the poor saps caught up in the drug manufacture and supply chain.
That being said, life in prison is a fucking ludicrous sentence.

Most european countries have sentences based on scientific theories, americans just want the pain.
Not to mention, Reagan made a funny back in the 80s:
"In 1986, the U.S. Congress passed the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 which, amongst other things, created a 100 to 1 sentencing disparity for crack vs. powder cocaine possession, which some people consider to be a racist law which discriminates against minorities,[2][3][4] who are more likely to use crack than powder cocaine. People convicted in federal court of possession of 5 grams of crack cocaine will receive a minimum mandatory sentence of 5 years in federal prison. On the other hand, possession of 500 grams of powder cocaine carries the same sentence.[2][3] Some other authors, however, have pointed out that the Congressional Black Caucus backed the law, which they say implies that the law cannot be racist.[5][6][7]"
