A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.

  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.

By making practical use of the heat byproduct, you could argue the cats are making the GPUs more efficient

Do they overheat and slow down or something? The GPUs, not the cats I mean.

Given enough time the cat hair will get into everything.

Good reminder to clean my dust filters

Good reminder to not look in there

Surely they piss somewhere else? This is not an atractive place for a cat to piss in.

I have a hunch the story is fake and the image is AI

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 3 months ago

Every day I'm finding it harder to be able to identify AI, and it's only going to get worse.

I have a hunch we live in a simulation

Depends. But usually such mining centres are closed like bunkers and don't let any people or animals in.

Maybe in ~~India~~ Mongolia smb. built this in a shack and the cats went there, but then it would not be that much money lost.

Bitcoin:

  • Decentralized
  • Permissionless
  • Private
  • Keeps the kitties warm

Not private, pseudonymous. If your address is associated to you, all your past transactions are known to be yours.

But it's a small price to pay for hot pussy

That's why you should always be open for unexpected alliances

I've always thought of them as anarchist myself.

Solidarity

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 17 points 3 months ago

Cats are anarchist as hell

1980s I found a bug in my system. 2020s I found a cat in my system.

Yes, but worldwide spreading computers gained in 1980s similar to mining systems in 2020s, despite first mining systems appeared in 2010s.

You know what doesnt lose value from a cat curling up on it or a power outage?

Precious metals.

Don’t think gold is going anywhere as much as bit coin and the trump administration would love it to.
