As if paying for sex wasn't awkward enough (so I've heard), you can now pay for it with Bitcoins.

The world's oldest profession met the world's youngest currency as escort agency Passion VIP announced it now accepts payment for its adult companionship services in bitcoin. Located in the second most populous British city (after London), Passion VIP is hoping the introduction of bitcoin payments will open up a new market by giving clients an alternative payment method.

Heh, no. The time of the 6990s cranking out fierce bitcoinage is long past. It's all about the ASICs now.
 
Dear [H] please include a new "Bitcoins per hour" metric as well as a "Value in terms of sexual favor" char to your future video card reviews. Please coordinate with Passion VIP as having the chart be dynamic to reflect up to date pricing would be helpful.

I guess some people probably need just one more reason to buy a cool new videocard.

They'd be wasting their money unless they got it for gaming only. As stated above, the days of hashing with video cards is long past. The difficulty has skyrocketed so high now that even the lower end ASICs are damn near useless.

At current difficulty, with a video card you're looking at 550+ days to mine one complete coin. And the difficulty goes up roughly every two weeks.
 
I mean, really...did people not think, once Bitcoin soared past 100 bucks a coin, that a huge push for mining would ensue? Your best bet if you don't want to drop tens of thousands of dollars would be to buy a mining contract from a company with a serious setup. Anything not pushing serious gigahashes is going to be a slow, pointless waste of resources...and it will be a matter of months until terahashes are the new standard.
 
They also take cash, most likely, and if the transaction doesn't involve a face-to-face meeting, I think you're doing it wrong.
