Bitmain don't run standard Core.
Using Ocean's standard options is a good compromise. You can literally see the block you are hashing against. https://www.ocean.xyz/blocktemplate/core
It's depends on the node you run. The mempool policy you run on your node determine the block template that will be built.
Yeah.
But some people are happy to run Core if they can avoid hashing for Bitmain, right?
Do you mean DATUM? It can only construct a block according to the rules of the node (and mempool) that it is connected to.
I don't think so. They have multiple templates (including core).
However when I tried to set up DATUM on Umbrel, it said that it was dependent on Knots???
So I'm not sure
I think that is what they are trying to do.
But I think it puts off people who would otherwise be interested in fair payouts and creating their own blocks.
I wish Ocean would not conflate decentralised block construction and Knots.
They are different things
Who was the second person to run a Bitcoin node? Not Hal!?
Analogies are good until they aren't. And in Bitcoin, most are misleading.
So, somebody other than Hal was the second person to run a node?
Bitcoin Brisbane Meetup Thursday night!
Wow, I have never thought of that 🤯
I can personally attest to over 30 power outages that Bitcoin has survived 😆
I think shower beers don't count

I'll be mirroring my X account here and hopefully finding some good conversations.
Welcome to Nostr
This could be interesting to you. 
1. Turn on the wifi hotspot from the keypad.
(The display will shower you the network ID and password)
2. Connect to the Wifi.
3. Browse to 192.168.250.181
Then your are going to need the admin password. Not sure exactly what the interface is like after this step or even what the default password is.
Was that helpful?
