figured as much

Oh good, yet another shitty twitter clone.

I don’t get why they keep developing separate ones. at some point it has to be quicker to just roll mastodon and defederate from all other instances

He’s got work to do on his side considering he’s basically ignoring the 1st Amendment and deporting political critics

/b/ is just logspammers and porn now.

And the 15 min wait to post anything has noticeably slowed down any sort of discussion. Posts on /b/ can last for up to a week now because of it

did they actually do layoffs? I think where i am a lot of the shops just let the staff levels atrophy naturally down to the level where they wanted them.

you must have scrolled a long way to get to a 7 month old post

you weren’t here for the election

yep, reddit was RIF as far as i’m concerned. if RIF is dead then so is reddit

Getting citizenship in a lot of countries is expensive.

My partners mother has lived in the UK since the late 80s, has been married to a british bloke for most of that time and has two kids that were born here by him.

Still only has indefinite leave to remain, no citizenship.

looks like it’ll be over £3000 if she wants to get it just for the application (i imagine it’d also be a good idea to instruct a solicitor). which, for a semi-retired carer that flies back to her home country for a month each year, is a lot of money

Anno 1800 just inhales my free time

i refer you to my previous comment on the subject

pool mining on the lower difficulty pool

and yeah used gupax for the cpu so p2pool+xmrig is built in

haha i also have my own homemade linux router. debian based on an orangepi r1+

thinking about replacing it with openwrt on some more application specific hardware soon though

never heard of it tbh

not something i recorded this time. may do it next year.

i observed usually around 83 to 93 degrees celcius on the GPU. although i did see it drop to 53 degrees a few times whilst still mining. not sure what that was about as there’s no way that was a true figure.

i did override the gpu fan once or twice manually and set it to full flat out and got it down into the 70s. i found the interface for that to be kinda complicated to deal with though so i didnt do it routinely

wasnt watching the CPU

could have bought yourself a £500 gpu after and mined even more then

Not possible where i am. i live in an apartment above a shop in a busy UK town. Attaching anything to the outside of my property requires expensive permission from the freeholder.

Plus i want to move in the next year or so, so economically it wouldn’t make a lot of sense for me to do it

was fun tho. and if those coins do pop in future then i stand to make a decent amount of money.

I’ve spent more on the lottery for worse odds

I’m generally of the opinion that thermal cycles are more damaging to a gpu that sustaining high (but within tolerance) temperatures consistently over a long period of time.

I have lost GPUs before, but not yet to mining.

That said i did switch the mining off many times to play some games so probs getting the worst of both worlds…

I was folding@home on my media server as part of this experiment.

I did try and do this a couple years ago with folding@home on both machines but didn’t make it all the way through December, although i did have different hardware at that time.

I did briefly look at doing it again this year but setting it up to work with an AMD gpu seemed to be unsupported. the mining software seems easier to script with too

Yes, it does get below freezing quite a few times during that time of year. if i allow the temperature in the flat to get too low i risk pipes freezing which can cause damage.

Plus i have the girlfriend factor to think of. She likes to be warm and is loud about it when she isnt
