So I took a random 100W solar panel I have laying around, plugged it into one of those Chinesium 120V grid tie inverters that you can just plug into the wall, and it sits in my yard and it actually makes me 20¢ per day.

Eat your heart out miners.

It's really f***ing happening! I'm mining with my own ASIC! 👍 😂 , albeit hosted in a data center due to much more favorable electricity price ... Right up until yesterday, I was just a GPU miner. Starting today I'm also a Bitcoin miner ... 😎

Moving up in the crypto world ... from gpu miner only I have joined big boys today and bought my first Bitcoin ASIC - Bitmain Antmniner S19K Pro - 120 TH ... I still believe in GPU mining in the next bullrun, so I will continue doing so ... I feel good today ... 😎 😀

Unit 42 discovered a threat actor’s operation that scanned for exposed AWS identity and access management (IAM) credentials within public GitHub repositories. They found that the threat actor can detect and launch a full-scale mining operation within five minutes from the time of an AWS IAM credential being exposed in a public GitHub repository. The operation has been in action since at least 2020. IOC provided.

@christianschwaegerl Ok, we probably agree that precious electricity should not be wasted on useless activities like .

However, I hope everybody understands that all these tires would most likely be burned anyway. The main question seems to be where and under which environmental safety conditions.

Or what did people think would happen to their used tires eventually? That they just disappear -style? If you don't want burning tires, stop driving!

🕵️ Another clandestine crypto mining farm was busted by local authorities.

~ USD 2.5 million are the estimated losses in electricity theft.

We are becoming the mecca for these bozos.

Our rural areas are being slowly plagued by these criminals.
