That's not how revolutions work.
Um. Is this a protest or a revolt? Very different situations with different rules of engagement. You don't go home when you are told.
You are fighting to make your home a better place due to the tyrants running the place.
If you are listening to, and doing the will of the tyrants, you are a part of the problem.
Sounds like we're talking about an insurrection. Well, at the moment it's at most moving from a protest to a rat pack/mob. Another 2-3 months and it would be an insurrection. 6 months after that it's a full blown civil war. So where are we here? |

Wasn't there a separate thread for all the COViD discussions.....
Actually this convoy thing is supporting the immutability argument which makes it a different animal all together. Oh yeah, the seizing of bank accounts and the utter stupidity of trusting some cheap shit Christian "donation" site run by people who can't seem to hire people to secure the... thing (maybe they trust in the LORD) points out why crypto is a good idea and is worthy of discussion. However the "fake virus" crap (and the "Dude, you're gonna DIE stuff) should stay out of this thread. I sit on my hands myself...... Back to the regularly scheduled drama. |

People uploading porn into the blockchain again?
On a happier note it looks like France is building 14 new nukes. I am glad, happiness is a warm nuke.....

It's amazing how stupid the general population really is.
Oh come now. Why do you think Iceland is named Iceland and Greenland is named Greenland. Simple marketing. Always has been. |

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully they are vaccinated and thus the impact will be minimal. If not then hopefully the hospitals in your neighborhood are past the peak admissions from January.
Yes, but I’m not vaccinated, because until now it seemed to me that this was just a convention ... As a heavy smoker, I have severe shortness of breath in the mornings and evenings .... so for the most part I worry that my already deplorable lung condition will get worse (although I have not yet taken a test). No matter how stupid it may sound, my subconscious will feel better if it does not know about the diagnosis and will position the current state as a common cold, (although I admit I feel inner anxiety).Well, if you could it would be nice to keep us up to date. As an objectivist I'd have to say it is what it is, so see where it goes. Gotta say, I do miss smoking. Pipes were always the best, cigarettes were kinda blah and a good cigar was delicious. |

just broke into a sbc from my old jag and found striations on the first main bearing I pulled.
Shit.
Yeah, you're getting old. |

Meantime we should be warming up the pictures of trains. I think we have seen the bottom last month.....  |

I also stumbled upon something called "Star Trek, Lower decks" Anyone know what that is? Sounds like space porn to me.
Not porn. Just a cartoon/comedy loosely related to Star Trek. Seems very loosely related from the few minutes of clip I just watched. I'll stick with the Orville for a comedy version of Star Trek Wait... the original Star Trek wasn't a comedy?!  Wait.... Orville is a comedy? |

 Some stats for context, 67% population of Crimea were ethnic Russians, 80% of population spoke Russian as their primary language, and naturally this is how they voted, Yanukovych (blue) was the pro Russian president that ended up winning  Current military conflict is in the two regions that voted 91% and 93% for pro Russian president. So Hm: based on the voting patterns one could make a pretty reasonable assumption that the area of "land" just above Ukraine, to the right of Poland, and below Lit/Latvia/Estonia would probably be pretty highly "Pro someone other than Russia". Would Russia be ok in ceding that territory in exchange for the areas that voted Russian in the Ukraine? After all it is geography.... |

Ah yes adaseb: The secret to removing components from the Titan boards is to use a pre-heater. Warm the board to about 150-200c and the components will come off easily with a small amount of localized hot air. Just be sure to keep the airflow level low; otherwise you could blow off small components.
This is how I replace the power plugs: There is way too much copper in the board to remove them with a soldering iron at room temperature, but taking the board to 200c allows you to use an iron to remove them. Then wick out the solder from the holes and put a new one in.

Oh help here on the forums is free of course. I only charge for my personal efforts to do stuff. That's why I published all my findings.

It's not too hard if you have hot air rework tools. The chip costs around $50 or so I think, and you take the old chip off, remove all the old solder, then put the new one on the flat pads, line it up carefully, and flow it into place. I use a bit of flux on the board, helps the solder melt cleanly.
This is the second time in a week or so someone has been asking about these boards. I'll check to see what I have here.

Hm. Try again without the display. The light should flash white, then again maybe, then go green or blue. If it doesn't then the FPGA chip on the board was damaged, possibly by a cube's ribbon cable being plugged in upside down or not properly on the cube itself (ie: plugged in on only half of the pins)

Thought I'd update: I have about 8-10 cubes still up and hashing litecoin, the power plugs continue to burn out every year or so, I tried soldering wires directly to the pins but gave up when I realized that without supports I'd probably break the connections in the board. But they still run and as of a month ago were still making ROI. Pretty good for an 8 year old miner.

Hello everyone, I still have a complete set of kncminer neptune and some electricity for free, so I wanted to connect them again. Everything went well at first, but now the miner status says "stopped" and the display lights up but show nothing. I reboot, reset and reflashed the system = nothing. Before I read the entire post my question: Can I find the solution here? Or does anyone have a quick tip? Thank you and excuse my English.
Yeah. First you want to find out if the controller light goes green (or is it blue) with no cubes but display. Then see if the display updates. Then try one cube not plugged into power but connected with the cable PROPERLY. See if it shows up with a temperature in the web display. Then try plugging it into 12v (shut down before every plug or unplug or power change). One step at a time. If you know how to use an ohm meter read the thread for how to figure out if a cube is shorted. Note one bad cube can take out the controller..... |
