What's the state of GPU mining these days? I guess this means shitcoins if there are any. I have a space I need to heat, and I have a bunch of old GPUs. I was reading about pool services that offer GPU mining tools and payout in bitcoin.

We used to run Folding at Home and it saved us over 50% in heating in the winter, and I still had the CPU left for doing other work. Years prior I used to run bfgminer on slush pool XD

Its good to join one of the mining chats on telegram, discord, or the ergo forum for more info if you want.

I'll take a look thanks!

Do I spy an OBS powerstroke in the background of your pfp?

Yup, I'm a big big fan of obs fords. My power stroke is a bit beat up but its my baby.

Oh hell yeah! Not many of us around these parts. I'm personally a super duty guy, but this is my daily. If we ever have the chance to chat about it. I was an aftermarket calibration firmware engineer for a while.

Very cool. Yeah, not much overlap in the gearhead/computer nerd spaces. Seems like you found your niche though, that's sick.

Well that's in the past unfortunately, we had to move on.

I think most have transitioned into AI rigs. After ETH went PoS it was just jumping from shitcoin to shitcoin hoping to break even on electricity.

Yeah that's why I left a while ago. Bummer. Old GPUs aren't useful for AI in any capacity either, without the vram, right now they just take up space.
