(I do much or of this stuff!)<p>I probably don't need to operate at this level of cheapness/frugality but once you start doing a few things, you built the habits and it's not a big deal.</p><p>First, here's some YouTube material and I answer almost EVERY comment.</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHfnZVroL1-WNlfCEC09jdPlf6GYUu50e">https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHfnZVroL1-WNlfCEC09jdPlf6GYUu50e</a></p><p>People are going to comment that much of this advice is just a few cents or dollars here and there. </p><p>True, but you can take those tiny gains, and put a few dollars a week or month into stocks that pay dividends in whatever business you like: oil, energy, gambling, real estate, options (you can buy stocks and the company does the work selling options), for as little as $1 at a time.</p><p>Over time, this is a nice little income (your dollars make dollars) AND you can borrow against the value of the stock if you need a short term loan til the next payday once you reach $2000. </p><p>I wouldn't invest any money I might need quickly. So, if it's $1, then it's $1 that you can put away for a long while.</p><p>$2000 is not that much, especially if you can be smart. </p><p>First, pick a brokerage here for free. Some will give you free stock for just opening, some will give free stock for a small ($20 lets say) deposit, and it scales up from there. One gives you $200 for depositing $2000. (You could get a credit card advance for that, with one of those 3% offers, since you make 10%. Pocket the difference.)</p><p>Read the terms as some require you keep the money there for a while. But you could easily buy $200 in stock in the last example, keep the $2000 in cash in the account then when the time is met, withdraw the cash and pay off the credit card. Or, put it in a savings account after that or whatever. You pay a $60-$80 fee but you make $200.</p><p>IMHO, a brokerage account worth $2000 so you can apply for margin (mainly so you can borrow cash against the value of your stock) and use it as another bank account. You can even pay your credit card out of your brokerage in most cases.</p><p>Example: Credit card's due, but you don't have the cash for a few days. No problem! Your stocks are worth $2000, in most cases the broker will let you spend $1000. Pay the card, put the money back when you get your paycheck.</p><p>Moving on.</p><p><b><i><u>The first concept I want to talk about is: delay your gratification</u></i></b>. Rich people buy luxuries last, poor people buy luxuries first.</p><p>What is a luxury? IMHO, anything you don't NEED. (Or plan to make or save money, etc. such as buying an electric lawn mower and stop paying someone else to do it.)</p><p>Those premium beers (beer in general is not a good bargain, I like cheap rum plus whatever), the Starbucks, junk food (I'm hungry) or anything you don't truly NEED. </p><p>Do you need a new TV or can you just watch on a tablet and hold it closer?</p><p>That money can go into investing. </p><p>Why do I keep pushing investing? Because your money makes money all the time. While you are asleep.</p><p>Ok, so that's our goals: building a habit of not spending money for wants, but NEEDS and using our money or credit card or whatever to make money.</p><p>Rich people don't work for their money. Their money works for them.</p><p>Frugal. Cheap.</p><p>Here's where it might be embarrassing for you. These are things I do, but many of them are also good for the environment. </p><p>I will 'embarrass' myself now. Here's a long list of tiny things I do that just save money.</p><p>1. When I get bar soap and such in a hotel, I bring it home. Wrap it in a couple of Kleenex and take it home. Makes your suitcase smell good and keeps it out of the trash. Save conditioner/shampoo small sizes and use those the next time you travel. </p><p>2. Showers. I use a lower water output (don't need full blast to wash) and you can turn off the water as you lather. Saves heating the water, saves the amount of water you use. Get wet, turn off water, lather, rinse. Good for the environment. If it's winter, leave the warm water in the tub and the heat will stay in your bathroom. Drain when cold.</p><p>3. Food. Take it home from the restaurant, freeze it if you can't eat it right away, buy the store brands, look for the 'dented box' clearance section, etc. Refill your one time use wwater bottle.</p><p>4. Save the aluminum cans. Just put them somewhere if you can and make one big trip. I also save other metals as I have storage on site.</p><p>5. Pick up those pennies you see in the parking lot.</p><p>6. Check out an app called 'CoinOut'. They pay you to take photos of almost any receipt and send it in. Just collect a small pile and do it every now and then while you watch TV.</p><p>7. Look for a store in your area that sells out of date items. Anything canned for example that's close to out of date or is just a little out of date is probably fine if the can isn't swollen.</p><p>8. Drive slower. Don't punch the gas when the light turns green, and slow down early for red lights and stop signs: coast to them if you can. Keep your tires aired up. That's cheap.</p><p>9. Pool resources. Carpool, take trips to the store together, Costco etc: buy a bunch, split it up. It's social, too.</p>theroblog.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01667095770629418911noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27591867.post-52252759301211187622022-05-21T00:22:00.000-05:002022-05-21T00:22:23.128-05:00R Mode and TeamRedMiner HiveOS settings<p> 850 core clock somehow reverted me to 1400mhz.</p><p>Appears that 900 is the lowest I can set which saves about 5W in software and about the same hashrate.

This person melted part of their board.<p><span style="font-family: inherit;">From my Youtube video at </span>https://youtu.be/M-_mJLptBXw </p><p>"<span style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">psu 2 got very very hot and riser melted smoke! "</span></p><p>This question comes up so often I reproduced it here.</p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's a BAD IDEA to use two power supplies on the boards where the power connectors are all tied together. Just don't do it. The only way would be to use a power balancing circuit but then monetarily it isn't worth it.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Read thru for my recommendation.

People should not even think of it that way. There are PCIe slots.

I have the computer / disk / screen never sleep in settings as well.</p><p>I manually sleep it via suspend to disk as outlined below.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, I don't have a cure. But I'm trying some ideas. My system is a Mac Pro 2013 model (made in 2016) with 64GB of RAM (had 16GB but same issues), 3.67ghz 4 core, 1TB Apple SSD, and the D300 CPUs.</p><p>I upgraded from 16GB of RAM to 64GB of RAM, no change. Some reported high RAM use by some apps might have been an issue.</p><p>SMC and NVRAM resets haven't helped.</p><p>Note: live streaming and having lots of tabs and apps open might have been a factor.</p><p>Here's an idea if you still want "sleep".</p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><a class="anchor-1MIwyf anchorUnderlineOnHover-2qPutX" href="https://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-hibernate-a-mac--cms-23235" rel="noreferrer noopener" role="button" style="background-color: rgba(4, 4, 5, 0.07); border: 0px; cursor: pointer; forced-color-adjust: none; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: break-spaces; word-break: break-word;" tabindex="0" target="_blank" title="https://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-hibernate-a-mac--cms-23235">https://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-hibernate-a-mac--cms-23235</a><span style="background-color: rgba(4, 4, 5, 0.07); white-space: break-spaces;"> </span></span></p><p>I set it to '25' which will suspend to disk and take a little longet to wake. Only issue was it told me I hadn't ejected a disk properly.</p><p><b><u><i>Planned</i></u></b>: Upgrade from Big Sur to Monterey. <b><u>*Completed</u></b>. Scroll down for Post-Monterey notes.</p><p>I turned off my second desktop in Mission Control. I have 3 monitors so I don't need that. That should reduce the load on WindowServer. It <b><i><u>APPEARS</u></i></b> to have cut my CPU us in <b><u>half</u></b>. Which makes sense kinda. One 'space' vs two even though the second one was empty.</p><p>So far, at firxt glance, this is the largest visible difference from chages I've made.</p><p><b><u>Idea</u></b>: wonder if I upgraded from my quad core to a 10 or 12 core would help the issue. CPU would have more overhead.</p><p><b><u>Idea:</u></b> I put the Top left output as Thunderbolt so that's the first type of Display I presume the hardware sees vs. a legacy.</p><p><b><u>Note</u></b>: I noticed System Report says Auto Brightness is enabled but of course that's impossible for these displays/machine.

(We've all seen the 'UNPAID' roles on certain sites. LOL.)</p><p>So when I saw a post that they needed a background actor, I put in for it because it's always been a good time. This is the 3rd project I've worked on for them. </p><p>I've done nationally airing commercials and TV shows, but I don't consider this role 'beneath me' because who knows? Maybe someday it will be an Easter egg for someone to spot me. And if I think it's fun, I'll consider pretty much anything.</p><p>I'll stretch my acting muscles any way I can and any experience IMHO is good experience. This turned out to be even more than that.</p><p>I'm just supposed to be 'warehouse worker'. </p><p>Until I <b><u><i>show up</i></u></b>. Hint hint.</p><p>We all sit down. About 1 minute into the conversation, the head guy (he wears several hats and signs the checks), turns to me and says "Hey Rob, we don't have a 'Jason', do you want to handle that?"</p><p>I say "no problem" and get a copy of the script.</p><p>The conversation content also included something about 'people not showing up', and 'it's always the morning of' when they no show you.</p><p>IMHO, this would be, I imagine, the #1 way to tick off a director/producer/etc. It's a small industry, so don't do that.</p><p>I don't know who all didn't show up, but it sounds like more than one person.</p><p>This is also not the first time I've heard this. I've heard it on multiple sets. Perhaps it's my military/airline captain/engineer background but I do NOT get this concept.</p><p>Anyway, what happens is this:</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-59rpW_MDJAs/YdyOoh0vgvI/AAAAAAAAai4/vRR2iAG6NAsZ1ihG2DQSx896n_doj3CuACNcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="599" data-original-width="784" height="371" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-59rpW_MDJAs/YdyOoh0vgvI/AAAAAAAAai4/vRR2iAG6NAsZ1ihG2DQSx896n_doj3CuACNcBGAsYHQ/w484-h371/image.png" width="484" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I end up front and center of the camera and one of two main characters the scene hinges on.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">SHOW UP.

And misc info.<p> 1. The BTC-S37 PCIe power inputs are all tied. So, you CANNOT power the 'riser' (slot) from the same power supply as the card unless you use ONE power supply. Because you are not supposed to use a different power supply on the riser than you do with the GPU. </p><p>One possible out I'm still exploring. Some server power supplies use a load sharing capability via a pin so that's a possibility but I have yet to see a breakout board with it, so it'd have to be a mod.</p><p>2. If you order a BTC-S37 you might get a 1037U CPU at 1.8 ghz or an 847 processor at 1.1ghz. It probably doesn't make a lot of difference, but perhaps a good seller will emerge that can source the better CPU. The 1037U is 2 years newer so and of course a little faster. I've ordered 2 boards from the same seller and gotten one of each. Grr: the Ebay ad said 1037U but the SECOND one had the OLDER CPU. I have my eye on a new seller that at least mentions you might get either.</p><p>3. One of my boards with the 1037U CPU apparently doesn't like the 6600XT. It locks with a gigabyte 6600XT, has the powercolor hellhound drop offline or detected dead all the time...but those GPUs work fine in the 847 CPU board. The 1037U mines all day long with Nvidia hodgepodge collection:</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IlbyJo4ds7E/YZvcRSrz2oI/AAAAAAAAaf8/sbpoYhDSSfgAxqaOU6nWJrDxZZSNwCT0wCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="256" data-original-width="1243" height="66" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IlbyJo4ds7E/YZvcRSrz2oI/AAAAAAAAaf8/sbpoYhDSSfgAxqaOU6nWJrDxZZSNwCT0wCLcBGAsYHQ/image.png" width="320" /></a></div><br />In this screenshot (click to expand) I just took the GPU offline. It'll sit there all day. And it was only drawing 52W on a 750W supply, I tried diff slots, etc. Probably just move some boards so it's all Nvidia. If I get bored (board bored?) I may try a 6700XT in it.<p></p><p>The main issue is the boards are the same revision and the socket is the same so I don't know how to tell the difference other than powering it on.</p><p>4. Strange network issues: on the board with the <span style="background-color: #22262b; color: #c6ccd2; font-family: "Open Sans", "Segoe UI", HelveticaNeue-Light, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1037U </span> the green network LED on the LAN port always turn off shortly after boot but the Celeron 847 board I have doesn't. Also, I had an issue on 5 sep 2022 that required me to power cycle my Wifi mesh node, the hub it was connected to, and jiggle some cables and finally the BTC is back online via the LAN port.</p><p>Indicators:</p><p>There's a green light that's 'power good' I think since it's always on. The one right above that is HDD activity. Barely able to see it unless there's a LOT of activity.</p><p>Hardware Resources:</p><p>Links are referral. I'll make a bit of cash for toys.</p><p><a href="https://ebay.us/dwV4Sy">https://ebay.us/dwV4Sy</a> mSATA to full sized SATA. So you can write the HiveOS drive in a PC.</p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3kZ1Mlw">https://amzn.to/3kZ1Mlw</a> USB3 to SATA case Pick one. Use in conjunction with the mSATA to SATA so your Mac/PC sees it as a flash drive so BalenaEtcher etc. will write directly to the mSATA. This is how I do it.</p><p><a href="https://ebay.us/Fch5x6">https://ebay.us/Fch5x6</a> Open Air Frame that fits the BTC-S37. I have not moved my board to it but it went together pretty well. Stackable. And yes, I know this can be done cheaper but what's my time worth and how nice is the finished product? You judge. It's difficult to find a frame that isn't designed for riser use. Expect a video someday at <a href="http://youtube.com/rcbullock">http://youtube.com/rcbullock</a> I haven't wanted to take the rig offline to move it but...soon. </p><p>I think this might also be useable as a small open air frame for GPU riser setups but just with a little less room as it's a muchlower height. Probably with an offset motherboard setup. Also it has fan mounts. </p><p><b><u>Cons</u></b>:: Some ATX boards don't have a mount point supposedly and you're supposed to use a rubber foot in that corner of the board. Doesn't matter for a BTC-S37.</p><p><b><u>Pros</u></b>: Five 120mm fan mounts are on the frame for cooling. I bought 5 Antec fans for under $20 <a href="here https://amzn.to/3kYSkys" target="_blank">here here https://amzn.to/3kYSkys</a> Notes on these fans: 30.5cfm, so not real fast but also silent. Mo.ex connectors. Blue LEDs IIRC are the cheapest and they come in packs of 3 so you could order two and have cool alternating colors. The molexes can be daisy chained.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>theroblog.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01667095770629418911noreply@blogger.com0
