Crypto miners actually often run the cards at low wattages and low heat. Because the top 5% of performance requires like 30% of the energy. So you can reduce your marginal cost (electrical bill) by 30% while only decreasing your revenue (mi

Obviously the phone caused it. The signal from the tower wouldn’t be any different from all the other calls going to all the other phones on your block. They didn’t have beamforming that narrow.

Close to zero income plus hosting fees most likely. If I built something like this I’d expect to lose money on it for awhile as well. I’d also expect to have to deliver a bit more “product” but I feel this guy is having a ton of fun with th

As someone who used to run away from the police, it's generally easiest to get away from them by running on foot -- if your environment and circumstances doesn't let you run away on foot then you'll rarely succeed getting awa

1) It’s the only VPN that worked in areas where they work hard to block most VPNs 2) it’s still not very expensive 3) it’s absurdly fast for a “VPN”! Like 400Mbit symmetric. 4) I also use it as a seedbox. Speaking of…does anyone have an inv
