. Btw, your nick suggests you may be a furry?
No, my nick suggests I'm a gaming nerd. Wait, the D&D Greyhawk game? That sounds worse than furry  |

You may want to call them now, Matthew. It's getting a bit late.
No rush. Plenty of illegal activity to collect evidence of before bothering. Stop sweating and keep blabbing. Dude, grow up. This is getting pathetic, and you are getting down to his level, if not way lower. |

I use a 2000 watt heater in winter. It has 1250 watt and 750 watt settings, but you're not realistically going to be running it at anything other than full power when the weather's really cold.
What would be involved in building a "heater" that's really a dedicated miner which is capable of putting out 2000 watts and what would it cost to build and supply? How would you incorporate a thermostat (people tend to turn heaters without thermostats on and off a lot, which you don't want if you want it to be mining as often as possible)?
I think a 2000 watt heater would cost close to $1,200 in hardware alone, and would be kind of noisy due to the fans. Regarding thermostats, it would be fairly easy to assign keyboard keys to turn separate miner GPUs on and off, and wire those keys to external case mounted switches. A software option with an actual thermostat would be harder, but still doable. I think the main problem is the initial cost. A 2000 watt rig would be able to pump out about 1.5BTC a day, or $150 a month ±price fluctuation ±difficulty changes. That's way too risky of a return on initial $1,200 investment, especially if you sell it for $20 to start and share mining profits. |

I want to know how anyone can stay in character parodying logansryche or Atlas without going insane.
I'm not parodying. I do actually know of such a restaurant. I know about it because the bank I am working for is the one planning to foreclose on it. And I do cook and know stuff about robots  |

You also have no understanding of french cuisine.
Oh, and you do? Why is your word better than mine? I'm half French. Well, I did say I haven't done any French cuisine yet and it's something I'm planning to learn. It can't be THAT hard. Btw, your nick suggests you may be a furry? |

I hope you are joking. What are you ? 17 ? Anyone older than that will laugh at your supposed "robot-building skills".
I wouldn't laugh at someone until they have proven me wrong. As I said, I have experience with 3D design and building simple robots. I just never had the funds to build bigger ones. |

Its pretty well known that the german government monitors the media as part of its anti-facist efforts. Its the same reason a lot of organisations are classed as terrorist becuase they promote facism and suchlike, and why some games and films are more readily banned than in other countries.
Isn't that kinda fascist in itself if it ends up getting a bit extreme? |

I think this is a great idea although I think I'd rather get the traditional hair in my s00p than hydraulic fluid.
Hydrolics could jut use water, so that won't be a problem |

Because the overhead costs would be enormously higher than a traditional restaurant to produce far inferior food?
There won't be any cooks or wait staff, so I doubt it Because you have no demonstrated ability to design the kind of complex machinery needed to prepare anything more complicated than Spaghetti-Os?
I may not have demonstrated it here, but I can do it. I have designed and programed a lot of machines in SecondLife, including ones that relied on physics. I can just pick up some cheap or free CAD software bundle and do the same for robots. Because your budget to design and build a robot restaurant is based on nothing and almost certainly drastically underfunded?
How do you know? I know how much the building costs. The technology can't be much more expensive. Because your proposed location has already proven unable to sustain an upscale restaurant?
Only because it had to pay cooks and waitstaff, and because the bank foreclosed on it. If I have all the money up front before starting it, I won't have to worry about banks. Because your entire business model is high risk / low reward?
It's not high risk. If I don't get enough money, I'll return everyone's money. You just don't get it  |

FYI, I am putting $50 of my own money into this to start, and already got another $20 donated (THANK YOU!). I'll keep adding my own money into this as I earn it.

Never heard of a restaurant without humans serving etc. Good luck though.
What about fancy sushi places where cooks prepare the sushi, but the food comes by on a conveyor belt? |

Don't forget microwaving and adding a frozen bag of meatballs. A simple spaghetti and meatballs dish can go for $10 in some places.
You're just yanking our chains with this, right? Not at ll! Somewhere in Europe there is now a vending machine that makes entire pizzas from scratch. Why not a building that does a whole menu? From what I understand, the floors above this restaurant aren't even used, so there's plenty of space, and having it in that location means it'll be cheat to buy and set up. It's even near a railroad ship yard, so getting ingredients and robot/machine parts will be cheaper than trucking! |

I cook gourmet international cuisine as a hobby, and have dinner parties at my house. I have done Russian, Italian, Japanese, Indian, and Greek so far. Wanting to experiment with French. This restaurant was French. I probably will change the menu to something else though from what I understand, French cooking mainly involves a lot of sauces and frying. Mixing sauces automatically is pretty easy, as is frying. If I add pasta options, that's pretty easy as well.

$3.5 * 30 = $105. Math FAIL
Yeah, what the fuck was I thinking. OK, let's call it $33/month at tomorrow's prices. Tee hee. That I'll take. |

Genuine question: Isn't starting a Bitcoin business in an 'economically depressed' area full of 'retirees (old people)' kinda counter-intuitive?
Those retirees get a lot of Social Security, so their money will keep coming in, and I don't hae to worry about unemployment and lack of discretionary income |

fully automated upscale
I don't think you understand how cooking works. I cook gourmet international cuisine as a hobby, and have dinner parties at my house. I have done Russian, Italian, Japanese, Indian, and Greek so far. Wanting to experiment with French. This restaurant was French. I probably will change the menu to something else though from what I understand, French cooking mainly involves a lot of sauces and frying. Mixing sauces automatically is pretty easy, as is frying.

Estimate 1 BTC a day for 4 GPU using 5850 might be possible and the prices of 5850 are quite cheap nowadays.
So ~$33/month at current prices? $3.5 * 30 = $105. Math FAIL |

lol This sounds like the physical equivalent of solidcoin  I can take solidcoin too if someone helps explain how to use them |

These names for bigger chunks of bitcoin makes me think we're expecting prices to keep going down instead of up...
