    FCC wants to hear about how internet data caps affect peoples lives.

    Household of 5 (wife, 2 girls and mother in law). 1 Gig symmetrical. $79.99/month no cap. I work for an ISP, let me see if I can pull some stats on average monthly usage. This thread made me curious. We offer residential speeds of 100MB, 200MB, 500MB, 1G, 2.5G and 5G.

    MSI GE66 Raider BIOS reset - disconnecting CMOS battery for 16 hours did NOT work

    Just got of chat with MSI support. For their laptops, the only way to reset BIOS password is to send it to them. Fortunately this laptop is less than a year old, so its still under warranty. Still sucks I now have to way 10-30 business days to get it back. But I got a good deal on the laptop...

    MSI GE66 Raider BIOS reset - disconnecting CMOS battery for 16 hours did NOT work

    I found this thread over on the MSI forum: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threads/forgotten-bios-password.371032/ So if the "password clear" was disabled on my new (to me) laptop, does that mean I'm SOL since the password is stored in NVRAM?

    MSI GE66 Raider BIOS reset - disconnecting CMOS battery for 16 hours did NOT work

    So I just picked up a nice GE66 Raider laptop from another member here. He disclosed up front that it had a BIOS password set that he did not know. I figured I wouldn't need it. However, after installing a new NVMe (WD Back SN850 1TB) and trying to load load Win 11, I got a message that "this...

    Daily Mining Profits

    Once I see if the 4000 series or the new AMD GPUs will offer significant efficiency gains over the 3000 series, I'll decide if I want to sell any of my 3000 GPUs. I'll probably ditch my 3 EVGA hybrids (3080, 3080Ti and 3090) tho. I am running Awesome Miner, so I could do automatic profit...

    Daily Mining Profits

    Took my rigs offline day before yesterday and just got done cleaning them up and setting them aside for now. They owe me nothing. All 5 rigs have Delta 2400W PSUs. Zoomed out view showing the solar inverters that kept them fed: I'll be building up a serious kWh bank in my account with...

    Daily Mining Profits

    Yep. Down to $7.16/day now... Might start shutting them off at night. I need to leave then on during the day, at least around mid-day, because I would otherwise be pushing well over 50,000 watts through the 50 KVA transformer on the pole on the street from my solar inverters, which would...

    Yeah, my $30/day on ERG yesterday went to $10 this morning to $8 just now. That's across 28 3000 series GPUs (mostly 3080 and up) and 8 5700XTs. Will probably shut them down this weekend for a well deserved cleaning after running for close to 2 years 24/7.

    Daily Mining Profits

    Well, I paid for my solar system with earnings from mining back in 2017/2018. I anticipate getting another 20+ years out of it. It would have already ROI'ed over the 7 years, had I paid from non crypto funds, since my install cost was less than $1/watt by doing all the work myself. I can buy...
