Unless your “new heating system” is a euphemism for a gpu array, you’re being pretty dishonest here.
Mining takes energy that is likely created by fossil fuel, that would otherwise be used to some necessary purposes, and burns it.
Unless you are generating green energy yourself, you’re likely hurting the environment.
I’m not saying you need to stop, and I’m not saying mining rigs are the end of the world (lord knows at least they aren’t frivolous airline flights), I’m just saying the previous poster isn’t being rude… it’s a valid point.
- phantomwhiskers 4y agoI was under the impression that when they said "This is a fraction of the amount I put back into the grid", it implied that they are generating their own electricity to use for this, most likely from solar panels. This is an assumption though, they could be running a large diesel generator for all we know.
- razemio 4y agoYes, what you are impling is correct. Forgot to mention that we have a 8kw solar system on our roof. I updated my comment.
