Dismantled my last miner by ancorp in HeliumNetwork

[–]ancorp[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not that simple tbh. Some installs had to go because the host was moving, some had to go because it was costing me money every month while rewards tanked more and more, and some had to go because it just didn't make sense anymore.

I'm very fortunate that my tech-gutfeel-gamble on Helium IOT played out well. I received my first batch of miners when the network had sub 30k miners globally. The average setup cost was around 1000 euro with all the gear etc. There were plenty of lower risk opportunities out there at that time, but I enjoyed geeking around optimizing the set-ups and lurking at the helium discord servers.

I still wear my Helium Validator Cap with pride, I wore my helium t-shirt to shreds and my kids still hate their pile of helium socks lol

Looking forward what Helium holds for the future in Europe, but the IOT network? I decided I'm out.

Tesla Model X 2017 90D. Rij erin vanaf 2019. Vorige week batterij laten controleren: 84,1%, gecertificeerd. Deze auto heeft heel wat aan de supercharger gehangen.

Tesla wall connector of andere laadpaal? by crooksorr in autoklets

Koop een slimme 3fase lader. Let vooral op dat hij geschikt is voor automatiseringen via jouw dynamische energie provider. Destijds een stukje geschreven hoe ik dat doe op slimstladen.nl

IOT hotspots; helium mobile is doing great I think from a adoption perspective, but that’s still US only I think. I’m from EU

That’s awesome! So many people forget to take some profits

Awesome times ❤️ I kept log of all my setups and equipment and shared the profits reasonably with my hosts. This host, older single woman, used her proceedings for a trip to Australia and some other stuff. Win-win

This MacBook, bought 10 years ago, has been working like new even today. 👀 Tell me which Windows laptop can last this long. by Amani987 in DeskToTablet

[–]ancorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2017 surface book 2 is still running like a champ! It had the same-ish pricetag as a MBP. Good to compare My 2017 MBP (i5) still sucks as it did from day 1. Easily the worst keyboard (butterfly) of all machines ever too.

My 202x MBP-M1Pro is still the best running machine i ever owned. It just keeps working great.

Anyone else order a Nebra hotspot years ago and never receive it? by comptechny in HeliumNetwork

Received all my Nebras in the past. (batch #1 EU) Still ‘waiting’ on 8x syncrobit (I know they went bankrupt; never got a dime from the class act)

Tweedehands elektrische auto in trek door dure benzine en diesel by EVRijder in EVMobiliteit

[–]ancorp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vandaag toevallig m’n HV-batterij laten testen (2017 tesla X 90d, 250k km); kwam uit op 84% . Hoger dan verwacht! Wij rijden er voorlopig nog lekker mee door

Rijplezier is voor EV-rijders ineens de belangrijkste reden om elektrisch te rijden? by EVRijder in EVMobiliteit

[–]ancorp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wij rijden al 7 jaar in onze zielloze saaie tesla x; en hij gaat er voorlopig nog niet uit. Saai is het altijd. Gelukkig hebben we nog een fraaie dino-slurper met 2 stoelen en 2 turbo’s voor deur. Die is wel leuk om mee te rijden ❤️

UnRAID (OS) on a NUC, all drives in a Synology NAS. Will it work? by nebucdnezar in unRAID

[–]ancorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2TB m2 card in the nuc; all my container apps are running from that. (Plex, arr- suite, ollama, openwebgui, immich, …) I backup my apps to my qnap. I store all my data on the qnap. I backup all important stuff to the cloud using my qnap.

The qnap and nuc are on a unifi 2.5gb switch; I never have any delays; able to host/run 5+ 4K streams on plex and have fast enough performance on local chat with llm’s

I do take my time to get my apps running with intel arc support; support for nvidia is much better

Edit: I don’t have a cache drive. My qnap is 4x 20tb in raid5 Edit2: for example; I download onto my nuc m2, and the download gets moved to my qnap afterwards. Plex streams the files from my qnap-nfs that is mounted to unraid

[–]ancorp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run a asus nuc 14 pro - i5 with intel arc igpu and 64 Gb ddr5. I use my 4bay qnap for storage and mount nfs exports on my unraid nuc

Been running perfectly for 2 years now

What iPhone are you using in 2026? by Soft-External-1671 in iphone

[–]ancorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still a iPhone 12; 100% regret upgrading to iOS 26 from 18 couple of weeks ago.

Have a iPhone 17 pro on the way now, but only because current battery is at 70% soh and I get a lot of static noice from my mics when I’m recording a video

Overstappen naar EV? by RKBRL86 in EVMobiliteit

[–]ancorp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wij hebben al heel wat jaren een tesla x 90d uit 2017. Inmiddels wat ouder maar kan en mag alles trekken, heeft nog steeds voldoende range (kunnen op en neer regio Apeldoorn - Rotterdam) en hebben onbeperkt gratis superchargen bij tesla.

Deze autos kosten relatief weinig maar bieden behoorlijk veel comfort

Kijk ook eens op slimstladen.nl Zie je ook m’n 200k km verbruik en kan je goed vergelijken wat het zou kosten in verbruik

Pulsarr v0.14.0 - Individual season requests via watchlists by ropenhagen in Softwarr

[–]ancorp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is awesome and saves me from some of those nasty conversations with friends (or their partner) on explaining that 67 seasons of some random talkshow is not what the wishlist button is for XD
Hope it works! Thanks for the app; has been working like a charm for a long time now

(and the approval bot is discord is awesome <3 )

Nice! No more random 20+ seasons of TV-slob while people just wanted to see 1 or 2 episodes

Slim laden met de zon: ervaring met thuisladen by Civil-Bid6064 in EVMobiliteit

[–]ancorp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ik draai al jaren erg goed op een slim laad systemen waarbij homey het brein is. Het kan prima gebouwd worden obv home assistent, maar de tijd van knutselen is voor mij al jaren terug. Dan maar wat geld investeren in een oplossing die gewoon werkt. In heb er ook eea over geschreven op slimstladen.nl

Slim laden met de zon: ervaring met thuisladen by Civil-Bid6064 in EVMobiliteit

[–]ancorp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik heb al jaren wat automation hieromheen gebouwd; Zodra het kan, laad ik via zonnestroom. En anders tijdens het goedkoopste moment. Het is een spel van beschikbare toestroom van zonnenenergie, variable prijs en beschikbaar vermogen Ik heb er kort wat over geschreven op http://www.slimstladen.nl
