<z6np-6w>hey GNU_Hurd_Rocks USPS: 9500 1158 4972 6257 9274 01
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>epic :3
<z6np-6w>All you need is a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and a phone charger wall wart
<z6np-6w>everything else is in the box
<z6np-6w>if your monitor has 2 inputs *thumbsup* and usb kvm switches are cheap so you can use your existing gear if you have to
<z6np-6w>if you use it as a microcontoller than all you need is a wall wart
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>I do at least have a thing that can read microsd from a usb thingy
<z6np-6w>oh I included a cool little card reader, usb-a/usb-c the card slides into the a-side
<z6np-6w>I'm not hurting for money so I'm passing forward some of these things I have gathered but have kinda moved beyond and don't really need anymore because I'm doing bigger things now, ok?
<z6np-6w>I just ordered one of these for a toy:2 https://www.nmminer.com/product/nmqaxe6-1/
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>interesting setup
<z6np-6w>Everything I sent you plus postage was chump change and just clutter I need to get rid of, so enjoy!
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>:3
<z6np-6w>i have 6 nmminer v2's going right now
<z6np-6w>just for fun
<z6np-6w>i ordered a bunch of cheap yellow displays to make xmas presents for my friends but in the meantime until I get around to messing with them, might as well make them make me money.
<z6np-6w>here's 3 of them:2 https://snipboard.io/UOT6l5.jpg
<z6np-6w>I can reflash them to other purposes anytime I want
<z6np-6w>I've already earned 0.002 NITO
<z6np-6w>hehehe
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>nice
<z6np-6w>hey right now it may be worth nothing, but in 10 years it might be bitcoin
<z6np-6w>and bitcoin will be $1M
<z6np-6w>any one of these goofy altcoins could be x10e10 in the future
<z6np-6w>depends on how q-day plays out
<z6np-6w>i wouldn't risk much on it, but if you can mine millions of tokens before they take off, thats all you need
<z6np-6w>these little nmminer gizmos only cost $9 each and you can use them for lots of other things, all they are is an esp32 dev board with a little TFT display
<z6np-6w>an esp32 classic has an xtensa lx6 risc processor, Espressif is moving to riscv but their lx6's are currently higher performance
<z6np-6w>microcontrollers are a little different, a lot of times an instruction completes in a single clock cycle so they can be fast despite a deceivingly low clock speed
<z6np-6w>i shrank the Quake1 window down a little to 900x600 and it smoothed out nicely
<z6np-6w>that video was a stress test:2 https://z6np.technology/rpi0-2w_quake1-stress-test.mp4
<z6np-6w>I sent you the little USB hub thingy, cuz you need it
<z6np-6w>I kept the on-off button. What do expect for free? lol
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>downloading it right now, to then see
<z6np-6w>shipping almost cost me what the thing itself cost :P
<z6np-6w>I don't really care much about money though, as long as I don't run out ;)
<z6np-6w>I spent like $300 on the bit axe but last month I gave some parasite woman over $1000
<z6np-6w>and she'll never pay me back
<z6np-6w>she just spent it on drugs
<z6np-6w>i never even got lucky, or even asked
<z6np-6w>she's toast though now, i had to read the riot act and thank God she's left me alone for a couple weeks
<z6np-6w>I don't wanna be some whore's gay boyfriend, because I'm not gay!
<z6np-6w>if she won't commit to some kind of something, then bye
<z6np-6w>now I have thousands of extra dollars ever month to spend
<z6np-6w>plus I am regaining my sanity!
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>sanity is crazy
<z6np-6w>no its the opposite
<z6np-6w>its not crazy
<z6np-6w>its doing things that make sense, not doing things that don't make sense
<z6np-6w>everyone is is crazy though so it makes you feel kinda alienated
<z6np-6w>if you think you know right from wrong, then follow your own compass, don't soldier along with everybody else and just to the same crap they do
<z6np-6w>I'm not with them people!
<damo22>GNU_Hurd_Rocks: https://code.zammit.org/damo22/icedtea7/src/branch/hurd-icedtea
<damo22>youpi: btw my server is back up
<GNU_Hurd_Rocks>epic :3
<z6np-6w>I ordered a bit axe to toy with, wait until i start loading cores onto these new giant FPGA boards, this is gonna be fun!
<z6np-6w>I already mined some NITO with unused cheap yellow displays, might as well since I'm not ready to deploy them right?
<z6np-6w>I can just reflash one if i need one
<z6np-6w>It's kinda comical, look at this:2https://snipboard.io/GsHire.jpg
<z6np-6w>I'll just shut up since nobody is talking back and assume you are all rock brains.
<z6np-6w>I don't wanna confuse you
<z6np-6w> https://youtu.be/vkLOg252KRE?si=LPv7CNV8YcfwBxNl
<z6np-6w>👁️✋❤️➕🔥🕊️
<z6np-6w>spin that up in your mind and then try to *not* think about it
<z6np-6w>its like a compass but better
