How many ASIC chips. I suspect at least 12, but 🤔

@npub12lf…7u4j I received the BitAxe Hex and am quite impressed with the build and quality.

Also, lots of thanks to https://web.public-pool.io for the free mining pool services!

Thank you @npub1vwf…lxtw , Open Source Miners United, and TinyChipHub for the work and support for the BitAxeHex!

Got the other three (to my satisfaction) and am willing to wait for #Bitcoin to climb above $1m. I’ll keep stacking fiat into sats until then 😉

My two BitAxes are mining away! I also have a HexAxe on order. I love the open source mining movement!

I think these disclaimers apply to ALL software…
I’m loving StartOS! Installed on an older laptop, added BTC node module, upgraded the hard drive to a bigger one, transferred data from old drive, and did it all following the Docs without any problems! Moving on to add more modules, starting with mempool.

I have no children, but grew up in a house that did spank. I too would spank 🤷🏼‍♂️ it was quite effective to/on me.

I was going to check out other services in the marketplace as well. The Nostr node caught my eye 🤓

Ultimately, it looks like a stripped down Debian build. BIOS is for their proprietary systems; my laptop still has its BIOS after the install. There appears to be limited hardware recognition (including wifi adapters). I haven’t dug into it much to this point, and trust the Start9 team based on my limited trust circle. But I could dive into it if I had time.
I like SBCs too. Although I don’t have any RISC-V ones at this point, but I could check it out on an ARM SBC at some point.
I use the laptop because it was unused, has sufficient tech, has a decent battery, and other laptop benefits.

Great show! Made me pull out my hardware wallet and buy 2 BitAxe miners!

I enjoyed this talk. Decided to wipe an older laptop and install StartOS and a Bitcoin Core Node. Syncing right now.
It is a very different feel to my pieced together node. I don’t know how much I like it, yet. Lots out of my direct control, but that may become a good thing.
I will give it some time. And I will check out other services from the marketplace.
I am hopeful that I will eventually love it!

Yes, it is the few that make it difficult on the many, thus the onerous requirements and difficulty to get access to services that should be easily accessible. I blame the few more than I blame Apple, myself.

Yes, and I am focused on my dietary choices. Unfortunately too much attention is dedicated to a “diet” than a way of life that is sustainable and reasonably healthy. Enjoy life, enjoy moderation and enjoy yourself. I’m glad your decisions are working for you and you are enjoying the results.
If I were deathly obese, I would whatever diet it took to get my body back to a more healthy level, not a 5% body fat as too many focus on being “healthy”

You are wrong. I am heavy and have a well balanced diet which includes local ranch sourced meat. I do understand my reasons for my weight though.

The All-in Podcast use to be a staple for me, but I quit listening to them a couple years ago. I was too deep in the Gromen/Lavish/Alden and the like rabbit hole. I feel better informed now 🤓

So Samurai Whirlpool is like an ISP? ISPs make a profit connecting people to the Internet and people use that connection to purchase stuff with a credit card (ie Amazon) or to do fiat banking with their financial institutions. So, the ISP is a “Money Service Business”? 🤔 now what if that connection is at a coffee shop where there is no KYC of the coffee shop customers. Oh my! The whole Internet should be arrested!
I hope the judicial system sees the idiocies of the US government over these arrests and illegal enforcements…

Nope, I can’t sell you on major cities. I grew up in a suburb of a medium city. I’ve lived most of my life in suburbs. Now I live rural and truly enjoy most things about it.
I do enjoy traveling to major metropolitan areas, but just for a few days at a time.

My journey-
Me on Feb 9, 2011 listening to Security Now podcast: “I need to look into this Bitcoin!”
Me in 2017: “Damn, I need to look into this Bitcoin!!”
Me in 2020: “Bitcoin will fix things, I need to get some!”
Me in Jan 2021: I finally bought some Bitcoin at $31k, but also too many shitcoins!
Today: 95% Bitcoin and still buying regularly! It is still soooo early!
Soon: Time for me to contribute and do my part for its future!

All our primary meat (beef,pork,chicken) is regionally sourced and we are thankful to be blessed to be able to help support a small rancher.

True, but it is a monetary security blanket in a world of corrupted, depreciating fiat currencies. And I am happy it exists, because I believe it maintain, at a minimum, today’s buying power in the future when I need it most.

G'morning! A fair number of sats have been stacked yesterday, I spent a few sats where it made sense, and I am on a rinse & repeat cycle!

Fewer stacked than last week, but I believe more than I will stack for the same amount of fiat in 4 years! #StackCheapSats

Ok, @npub1qny…95gx and his explaining how simple lightning and @npub148q…jra7 are, motivated me to get started. Now if I can figure liquidity. I yolo'd and opened up 1m sats which II probably overkill 🤷🏼‍♂️
Topped it off by establishing my Primal wallet as well...
