I like the corn

It's all about energy. Work out how to have abundant cheap energy and we move into the post scarcity society!

I was told it was the first form of libertarianism. This was before it was used to describe capitalist libertarianism in the USA.

It's true! My back spasms this morning have disappeared after I acquired more bitcoin.

See if you can argue with out resting to ad hominem attacks.

Solar thermal can melt salts turning the salt liquid at 600 degrees. I've read that there is alot of waste converting elec to heat and vice versa. However if it is waste electricity that was only going to be dumped then it's a moot point. Storing the heat would be very useful.

Ah. I get it, the electricity that would be waste is converted into heat. Free heat. I had the idea a while ago that solar thermal would be a good constant source of energy for bitcoin mining, because the heat is stored at 600degrees in solar salts and could be converted to electricity at night when there was no sun. Hence 24hour up time. But I'm not an engineer so haven't talked about this with others.

Possible competition for Bitcoin mining heat reuse... If they can make this as cheap as they want it to be, mining might not be able to compete due to capital costs.

I think they are missing a trick here. Using solar PV then converting to heat is hugely inefficient. Using solar thermal would remove the cost of transitioning from electric to heat.

I stand will Odell. I require whisky for most interactions. I would also like to highlight the spelling indicating Scottish Whisky.

I can verify that they are both douche bags.

I know who it was. It was Craig Wright! Luck it is made of stainless steel, weld it back together, all good no rust.

Haha Bitboy. Voice of truth and integrity. 🤣
