ypool is basically finding all the blocks at this point.
some friends and i still find blocks solo mining, everything is fine
Yep, solo blocks can still be found, even on a low spec PC, like an i3.
Don't LIE man! Not force people to waste time, power and hope... I can't find block with i3-2125 from a month !!! What is the chance now, any like 0.000000001% or I'm just unlucky (easy to said, but I not trust).
Please don't shout and please, please, please, don't call others liars because of your bad luck.
...and although I feel this is a waste of time, I can just not stand your attitude. Just to prove that you need no Blue Gene acess to solve blocks: I recently solved a block on a very low power virtual machine (as you might or might not be able to derive from the numbers)...

[/edit] ...just for the record and just in time (ok, I was continuously watching on that to happen
) And just to show that blocks can be generated even with low power virtual machines!
