For anyone saying that AI is going to get us out of trouble with inflation because it is deflationary, apart from that being complete nonsense, govt departments are not using it, or they are wrapping so much red tape around it that it offsets any benifits it would bring. They are the ones propping up an economy and are going to do it in an inefficient way.
Organisations who embrace AI are going to get so much more efficient. The govt services our tax pays for are going to get less and less efficient in comparison.
I bet the ATO are using it though.
I was speaking to a friend yesterday who works for a company that builds wind farms. Theiy said their biggest issue was curtailing power and getting connected to the grid. I spoke to them about Bitcoin mining and how it could help.
Does anyone have any articles that talk about Bitcoin being a buyer of last resort and how it could help that are not technical or not overly focused on Bitcoin and more focused on the business model and how it is a solution?
That would be great. I am sure there are a lot of bitcoiners in Tassie. Are you on Orange Pill App? That might help finding other locals.

Thanks everyone.
The workshop is on a 20Amp circuit by the looks of it. I have plugged it and and got it running and no issues so far. I haven't left it on for any real length of time though. Hour at most.
I am thinking that I will need a sparky to come in. I got some previous work done and he had to change a breaker to be a 10amp because I have got single core cable. I don't like the thought of drawing a big load on that if it is no longer allowed a 20amp breaker.
I can turn the miner on "low" mode so it isn't drawing as much but not sure how much less it is. I need to test it. I got a wattmeter the other day so I will have a look when I get a chance.
I'm In AU.
I have a workshop that I am hoping is on its own circuit. I need to do a bit of testing.
Going to be interesting and educational that is for sure.
Picked up my new toy yesterday. A S19 J Pro.
First impressions... It is heavy! Weights about 16kg. Lot more than I expected. It has two power cables. Never had that on anything before. Do I need to plug both in?
Anyone got any setup guides or videos on how to use it? My plan is to plug it in, switch it on, hope I don't blow the house electrics up, plug ethernet cable in, see what IP it gets on the network and try and connect to that in a browser.
No idea what I am doing.
Doesn't it get charcoal stuck to it? Do you have to clean it off or is it sitting on something?
Looking at getting a miner to play about with at home. I know it isn't going to be profitable, I am doing it more for the education.
I looking for a second hand S19. I want to go full miner rather than something like a bitaxe or appolo for a couple of reasons. 1 I have excess solar I want to use rather than giving back to the energy company for nothing. 2 I would love to look into using the heat.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
I am currently looking at a second hand S19kpro for $700

I'm back up and running. Node installed (not on a Pi this time), AlbyHub hosted locally and connected to Nostr. Feeling good!
Awesome. Hopefully you got Zapped for this!
There are quite a few good PoS implementation now that give staff receiving support only.

Please share with any nocoiner friends you have in #Melbourne that you think might be interested. 
Anyone know why I can't change the Zap amount? It is stuck on 100 sats.
