Congrats bro 🎉

👏 Never underestimate a plebs determination to solo mine a block

Today I'm trying all small miners on Public Pool and the Big Boy Q on Datum....see what happens 👀

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I'm throwing in the towel on public pool for now. No difficulty increases all day. Other the hash rates, no stats or share statistics. Even if Datum doesn't reach high difficulties as quick, I can at least see what's going on. I feel it probably integrates better with my knots node as well. That's my feeling today, will see what tomorrow brings

Yes, will do. I'm good with the 120v cable just thought the 240v would be slightly more efficient and have the ability to run it. But not worth all that. Hope these machines hold up or Canaan gets it's support together

Best difficulty with unique names on public pool seems to be moving up overnight though not as fast as the initial readings using a single name. But at least it's moving. I do miss the ability to see how many shares I submitted on Datum even though difficulty moved slower

Bigger than most of my computer towers lol but sleek looking and solid. Canaan support is an issue, hope I never have to contact them for anything serious. I reached out about getting a 240v cable and they keep asking for the most irrelevant things. What does my WhatsApp or social media have to do with providing efficient support? My website and phone number is in my signature and email is working fine. I just want a cable 🤡

💯 That is the reward and the mentality it takes to run these in solo mode 24/7, despite CA's electricital numeric nonsense. Heat is yet another sacrifice but one that is easier to get around for most people. Here is a shot of my setup. I've got a fan right behind the Q directed to another fan at the window. The airflow of the room tends to blow out that direction which helps. If you put it on a desk by a window with a window fan blowing out you'd barely notice the heat. It's nice and quiet too. Noise was always a major concern for me getting into bigger miners as well as 120v compatibility. Canaan nailed it with this

The bigger issue is paying SCE. At .30 to .40 electricity you're looking at about 10,000 sats/day just to run it on Eco mode. I've got solar which offsets it a bit but it's still tough. The heat definitely isn't my main concern

Mazal tov!

Anyone know how to get #umbrel os to recognize and utilize gpu's for AI compute tasks? Or perhaps there's another Linux based OS that can do this which I can easily connect to remotely from my phone? #asknostr
