Dang! It would have been the perfect opportunity to tell him to get himself a helmet with a lamp and a pick and have him digging a little!

I thought mining was a fat guy sitting in a loader complaining about a 23 year old avaricious kid that keeps on owning him, that or a hairy dutchman with a perfect command of swear words.

Thanks! I still don't understand most of it. Which means: Stay away!

It's like mining for nose gold, but more prone to cave-ins.
from google search: Quote: Bitcoin mining is the process by which transactions are verified and added to the public ledger, known as the block chain, and also the means through which new bitcoin are released. ... The mining process involves compiling recent transactions into blocks and trying to solve a computationally difficult puzzle.
To be honest, this definition needs further mining to get at its meaning.

It's very easy: They want to do a lot of transactions and need a lot of computer power to get all this processed. If you dedicate a computer to do some processing for them, you are awarded bitcoins for the work you did for them.

Are you then given the title "miner"?

I'm with you, if it ain't green and it ain't in my hand then I don't want to know about it.
Someone's therapist knows all about you!

My version of it?
It's the act of wasting power on computations that are for the most part completely useless, and in the unlikely event you do get a bitcoin out of it, you still won't be able to trade it in for anything of tangible value, no matter what its current monetary value is reported to be.

Clear as mud! Thanks, I'm staying far, far away.

You and me both. I still don't feel like I've missed out on anything.

I'm...not quite sure where this is coming from. You've been registered here for a week, this is apparently your first message, and seems totally out of place in this old thread.

My thoughts? As every day at this time: Mickeysoft sucks, but I'm going to get myself some lunch before I clean this mess up.

Nice one!
Solved by the time I saw it, but still a good clue.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Thank you. I usually fail miserably trying to solve the CCC, and I am not very good (aka useless) at inventing clues.
