   MH> Yes, if you believe in the project.  I mine Flux and also run several Flux   
   MH> nodes (they are decentralized compute) - to get away from big tech monopoli   
   MH> like Amazon.  I have been working with that project for a few years now and   
   MH> have over $3k in gains and really have not invested a penny other than some   
   MH> time and hardware cycles.   
      
   I think I'm curious about the Hydroelectrical cost to do this?   
      
   MH> Yeah, I know some people like to downsize when they get older.  Not me.    
   MH> Having too much space isn't a problem that I acknowledge.  That is like   
   MH> someone complaining about having too much money.  I can always find crap to   
   MH> put in extra rooms, etc.  :)   
      
   With the NAS I'm able to part ways with many Dvd's of aquired crap that   
   is now visual, instant, etc, can watch with any Smart TV etc..... I can move   
   out and just take two rack servers with me instead of physical media.   
      
   My music collection is a different story. I'm afraid 27 boxes of vinyl records   
   will be my anchor as I have too much sentimental / personal investment in all    
   of that. Touchy-feely need to hold a classic album in my hands.
