Question:  When you get a new account at a bank, does that leave your IP in the bank's logfiles?

No, only logging in to the account and transferring money leaves your IP and bank account number in the bank's log.

Not quite as good as I had hoped...
On the other hand, that is DF's text and colours, so it isn't *terrible* given the tools.

Edit:
After altering my unescape program to use stdin and stdout, I restored my log text with
unescape < test.txt | unescape | unescape | unescape | unescape | unescape > testout.txt

Plenty of pipes there.

Is this your IP? I didn't see any B12.txt files there.

Why would I post my IP in a public forum? I just found the IP in my logs.

Plenty of pipes there.

Did you say pipes?  Pipes!  And more pipes. Pipes, pipes, pipes.  Everyone loves pipes.

Well, I was actually referring to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_(character)
in the use of
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipeline_(Unix)

But dwarven pipes would be useful, too.
And the smoking pipes in with the liquid ones is quite funny there.

Ever used

Code: [Select]

{something in a dos prompt} | moreThat's using a pipe!
Now if only we could insert that into DF...

Code: (a magma pipeline) [Select]

magma | magmasmelter < materials.raw > metal.bars | magmaforge < metal.bars > metal.armor | elves

GAH! My 700 Euros are all gone. 

That sucks, I had JUST RESET all my IP, Passwords, and all that...He must have got the bank stuff while I was clearning my logs.

I know what pipes are.  I was being silly, because pipes (the other kind) come up so often.

[qwertyuiopas]

I sort of expected that, so I added the other text.

Why one of my spam slaves earns 30 euros on spam in 10 minutes while other 0.008 euros?

MODIFY:
I have 0.3 virus (looking for better one)
and 0.6 mailer (just updated)

[qwertyuiopas]

Because when there is more than one spam virus, they compete for resources.
Higher level viruses get a greater ratio, and that is their only advantage.
A lone 0.3 and a lone 83.2 get the same, but put them together and the greater one gets much more while the lower one gets less.

[Nicpon]

Thanks!
But what does the Mailer do?

(argh, I fail at present simple)

[qwertyuiopas]

You need a mailer of equal or greater level to control and collect from a spam virus.

You can't set it to spam or colect funds without a mailer, and a 0.3 mailer can only use 0.3 viruses, though a 1.1 mailer can use any spam virus equal to or less than 1.1, including a 0.3 or 0.6 or anything.

It also depends on the CPU speed of the slave.  A faster slave will generate more income.
(For warez its based on connection speed)

Thank you very much.

Do viruses slow down the computer (or connection sped) on which they are installed?

No.  Only take HD space.
