Im not there quite yet. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust They are my puppies… And yes, they are very cute. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Thanks for sharing. Its all about balance. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Congrats! Wish you all the best. Kidz are a gift. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Stacking sats made me forget something important. Not every expense is a loss. I can relax a bit. It feels good to actually spend some money for once. To buy something I wanted. I’ve been stacking sats like a maniac for almost 2 years now. Every purchase scrutinized. Every decision second-guessed. What can I sell? What can I flip? And I’m in the red, by quite a bit. It doesn’t matter. My new computer cost me nearly the equivalent of $1000. I’m never going to make anything close to that because of it. I’ll «lose» money on it. No. I spent money on it. Not the same. Discovering bitcoin is hard work. We need to support each other through this. Stay humble. Stay hungry. Stack sats. Spend some money on shit you like, want, need or whatever. Learn. Live. #life #learn #bitcoin #sovreig #peace npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust New machine up and running. On the left that is. Got Linux installed. Tried a little bit of mining using the CPU. Works. Im looking into renting out my GPU. Dont think thats something i will do alot of, but nontheless worth looking into, i might learn something. It is truly astonishing what a pleb like me can achive in a short amount of time with a tool like AI. What a time to be alive. Another problem to tackle is the fan lights. I will look into that tomorrow. They keep changing colors. It has to stop.

RTX 3080. Ryzen 9 5900x. 1TB nvme. Rainbow color fans… typical gaming setup! I will try to kill the lights, im too old for that! And as always, a deal was made with 100% trust given from both parties. The one thing i really love about Norway is the amount of trust we have for one another. And misuse of this trust is so rare. Good people everywhere! Cant wait to get it running. I hope my old one will be able to run the pruned node very soon. And the new can be put to work on some new projects. Any recommandations? Thinking cpu/gpu mining for fun? Som AI agent work.

We will see what shows up! #mining npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Moving to a new house this spring. Gonna get a setup with some small miners at the new house, and get some solar and battery installed. Then when fall comes, i hope the price of the Avalon Q has come down some, and i can spring for one. If not, ill keep looking around for what’s available in that heating output range. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Fiber and very good grid. Its in an area with heavy hydro power :) My S9 have worked very well, and have given me proof of concept. So next winter i need a good upgrade 👍🏻 npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Anywhere from 0 to -20 celsius. But im guessing the average in the winter months (des,jan,feb) is about -10. Its on the boarder between east/west Norway, so you can get some mild climate from the coast. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Browsing. For next winter im hoping to have one, or something similar. My heating needs there with an empty cabin is 1,5 - 2 kW. If i can get 80-100 ths for that i would be happy :) npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust I wish my friend. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Oh, those Avalon Q’s. Thats the dream right there npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Mining update February: The cabin was kept at a nice 12-16 degrees celcius. This is alot warmer than usual, and more than necessary. But here are the numbers. I used 720 kWh on the miner. It mined for 21 days. (Dident start untill 07.02) At 650sats/day is 13650 sats I paid 0,85kr/kWh (0,09$ish) Power total 612kr (62$ish) Sats are worth 95kr (10$ish) If i needed all heat produced anyways it would be a 16%ish discount on my heating bill. The machine cost 40$. Down paid for in 4months Rest as they say is history I was gonna run an S9 with only 2 boards at the cabin for march, so as to now produce as much excess heat. But now…. This very moment. I lost communication with a temp sensors. And i was gonna send it up there tomorrow with my wife, so she could plug it in when she left on sundag. Anyways. Not gonna happen now. Anyone with experience fixing hashbords? This is an 8 year old machine. For next to nothing. Trash for the professionals. I can only imagine what the numbers are like for the newer models and machines. Like the Avalon Q, been drooling at this. If anyone know anyone at Avalon. I want one. I will review that ting to its limits. I would love that! Rant ended Peace PS: Iwould consider making a video for that.

I have abandoned it. It is a sad day. My old computer did not handle it. Chat gpt was horrified to find out my processor var manufactured in 2008. But the harddrive var the worst of it. He called it spinning metal. Im not buying anything new, for now. But! I have found out about «pruned node» Looking into that now. Will update!

Kidz are literally the future, and we should care for them as such. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Update on my mining venture. The S9 at the hut is running smooth. It keeps the living area, kitchen and bathroom at a nice 10-14 degrees Celsius. This is a bit to high, and the total power used has gone up slightly. I thinks it is due to the heat not spreading evenly and it not replacing the other heaters 100%. Last days i have been working on an S9i that has a faulty hashboard. I removed the faulty one and are now solo mining with 2 boards in my basement. This might be better for the cabin, as it should draw around 900W instead og 1430. Might be better with a bit less. And i have hopes ill be able to flash in BraiinsOS on this one as it is a different model than the others. Keep stacking! Keep mining!

Down and the rest to go :) Still tinkering away on the S9 project. I have desided to try one out with stockOS and see how much heat it produces at the cabin and how well it is spreaf around the rooms. Maybe experiment a bit with placement and airflow direction. Im hoping that it wont be to much heat, the ideal situasjon i would need just a slight bit from the regulare heater. In that case the miner could just run and i would have a seprate termostat to top off. If it produses too much heat i am considering removing one hashboard.

Chatgpt would have me belive that this exact model of the S9 is not compatible with the process. Do you know if this is correct? That some machines (early models, mine are from 2017) cannot be used in this way? Braiins have removed the other ways of getting their OS into the S9, so am i stuck? npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust #bitcoin #nostr #mining #sovreign #note1w5m…hrew npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust I can not get BraiinsOS to run on my S9.

This is a test of sorts. The machines Are cheap and easy to get, thats why i choose them. I wanted to make sure i was able to figure out everything before i invested alot of money. As they will just replace existing energy consuption, the efficiency is of lesser significance. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust Okay! I have made some progress. I think my SD card is now flashed in the correct way. Took some tries. This may sound wierd but my computer crashed, and that i think, is a good sign :) I will try later this evening. I also found out that my version of the S9 should attempt to boot from the SD as standard. And i might not have waited long enough the last time. Tho im pretty sure the flashing also failed the last time. Lets go! Stay humble, stack sats. npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust The fan upgrade is a good idea.

I tried flashing 2 different SD cards with 2 different programs. Win32 and Balena Etcher. Any tips? Like a video or something that explains it. Tried moving those knobs on the main card. Some S9 need that to bot from the card? npub10z6vq0f73qecmxfhhuyekr9pq4w4nv6gac7m4kmez5m3xavsr9zqkthyqs Traust BraiinsOS should now be propert flashed onto an FAT32 2GB SD card. I also found on the SD card a bunch of fotos from 16-17 years ago with myself as a young man. Lets say i spendt som time in Reminiscence . I might be able to try it out this weekend. Hope so. I feel i am closing in to my goal of switching out 3kW ish of my electric heating needs with hashrate heating:) #bitcoin #nostr #mining #hashrateheating #norway
