First law of fiat: dollars are always created and never destroyed.
Unpopular opinion: I think AI will take over content creation in short term, but quickly destroy itself. Humans will quickly crave the genuine, human created, anologue, local experience and will flee and distrust the digital world much more. We will adopt constraint-based tech that liberates us from the technocracy.
At least the best of us will.
Awesome! RFK confirmed yet?
Can someone explain to me why on earth you would use a proprietary AI generator? Other than speed, I don't understand the benefits of throwing your money and data to some company... With self-hosted options that are super easy, why wouldn't you host the LLM on your own device?

Of course. Why do you think it was so cheap?
Wow, if this doesn't show the destructive power of money printing, I don't know what does.

Oh, no I didn't understand it that way. So the artist has to collect their sats through their wallet? Yeah, WTF?
I discovered a few weeks ago that I can connect my own wallet. I'm never on WavLake anymore, but you definitely don't have to use their wallet.

Preaching to the choir here, but ya'll need to stop feeding the monster and engaging with these influencers.
You're both angry and obsessed with them at the same time. The influencers are farming your attention. You think you are fighting the beast while you are actually feeding it.
You can end this by opting out and engaging with those who produce value. They deserve your attention.

)Yooper Crate in the Wild
This crate was designed to hold and reduce the noise of a Bitcoin miner while distributing the heat. As with most of these boxes lately, I have to give credit for the basic design to Steve Barbour. Thanks to many in the Pleb Miner Mafia.
The prices are circa early 2022.

)Yooper Crate Cut Out Plans (right mouse click - save image, for a legible copy)
**I followed the plans and it turned out solid. Below you will find a picture journey from Start to Finish. Most shopping was done at Menards, Lowes, and Amazon. Parts list at the bottom.**
)Cheapest, decent board I could find that had .74” actual thickness. Beware, this stuff has sharp edges and will slice your hands. Gloves required!
)Main screws I used for most of the assembly
)Screws I used when I didn’t want to break through the other side
)Pieces all cut out on a table saw
)Started with the divider wall with internal hot/cold register
)
)
)Figured out how the filter was going to lay in. I made the intake and outlet side the same so I can reverse flow if needed.
)Air Filter - Probably not my final one but something to start with. I don’t want choke out the airflow
)Intake/Outlet side: .75” reveal to plan for the bottom piece coverage
)Pilot holes for the air flow cutouts
)Backside of Intake/ Outlet side - ready for jigsaw cutout
)
)
)Figuring out the duct mount
)
)
)
)
)Intake, Outlet, and Divider
)Assemble the Horizonal/ Vertical Air Flow Flanges x2
)Flow flanges added to the pile
)Attach the Asic shelf to the Divider wall
)Asic shelf assembly added to the pile
)Attach bottom to hinge side
)
)Attach Intake/ Outlet Sides
)Attach divider assembly. Notice small support blocks
)Attach Horizontal/Vertical Flow flanges. Notice support blocks
)Few screws into support block
)Internal assembly complete
)Added small casters
)
)Added handles
)Misc. hardware
)Home sweet home
)Sound dampening: D.Y.O.R. - I used 4 layers of old bath towel on each surface and the compressed air staple gun was key
)
)Window seal for around the top
)D.Y.O.R. - Mounted some drywall for a little fire protection
)Window intake/ outlet for ducting
)Flexible ducting
)Picking a spot for my 220v - Hire a professional unless you absolutely know what you are doing
)
)
)
)
)
)Custom Cover
)Not my best work, but all set for an S19JPro
)S19JPro Overclocked
)75.7 DB with top open and fans at 77%
)47.5 DB with top closed at 45% (bringing in cold U.P. air on intake side). I added anti-vibration foam between asic shelf drywall and the miner and I believe it got even quieter
