  • Ya, if you have a miner at home, it will reduce your heating bill. You just gotta find a good use for it when it’s not cold outside, so something like supplementing your water heater as you mentioned would work ya.

    I think there’s merit in the idea. Someone makes an electric water heater purpose built for this and they build a miner card you can swap in/out as technology improves the the current one becomes obsolete. Uses the miner for primary heat, and when it’s not enough uses regular electricity to make the heat.


















  • But… it does have crumple zones.

    The entire front and rear castings are designed to shatter in a high energy collision and crumple.

    The size of a crumple zone isn’t as important as how it absorbs the energy and dispenses it.

    You could have a 20foot crumple zone that’s empty and it’s be useless.

    You can see it crumpled here. They’ve also posted a different video on the official X account of a crash test but I won’t post that to avoid linking them. here.

    Since you got something so utterly basic wrong and posted it as true, I can only assume the entire post is fabricated.

    Edit: took a screen shot instead of video. It crumples all the way past the front wheels


  • That’s what you need distress codes for.

    Destruction of evidence is a much different crime.

    I would suspect it’d no longer be legal to hold them indefinitely and instead at best get the max prison sentence for that crime instead.

    A us law website says that’s no more than 20y as the absolute max, and getting max would probably be hard if they don’t have anything else on you.

    You’d have to weigh that against what’s on the device.

    Also, even better if the distress code nukes the bad content, and then has a real 2nd profile that looks real, which makes it even harder to prove you used a distress code.
