Hi Ln folks, I'm John from Encrypted Energy. I'm building a service that helps automate your node operations. Anyone here running a LND node and need a hand with anything?
I'm looking to get in touch with anyone running an LND node. If you're running an LND node, drop an invoice here as a good faith gesture, and let's chat about your node ops workflow.
What is the point of joining NATO when they literally give you a trillion dollars worth of assistance if you get attacked regardless? I mean how much assistance has Ukraine recieved so far despite not being a member?
They will just wait until Nato collapses and even if it doesent its overrated. It spans different languages and cultures and equipment! Natos strength is overrated. Besides its a terrible way for peace because ultimately everyone has to be a member for it to work and that's never going to happen. All it does is cause division and tension and it makes the members lazy when it comes to diplomatic relations with non members. A disaster waiting to happen. But let's see.
It's Saturday gang, BTC is holding steady so that means you can relax on the graphs take a peek once in a while cause we all do, but I want you to go get yourself something don't matter what, a pack of gum, a nice hot cup of Java and a pastry, anything. And thank the universe, God, goddess, whomever you prefer for that treat. For me, I think it will be a nice cold one and drink it by the sea and I will thank the universe for you and my beer. Because YOU are important too. So be well and enjoy this Saturday, stay frosty my friend.
Raspberry Pis require a stable power supply which isn't trivial (and which depends on your peripherals). You need to know your stuff to tell if a power supply is decent and won't throttle your Pi (without you noticing anything, except your channel partners if you run a LN node).
For example, the first thing is you need to be able to tell the difference between a power supply and a charger even though both can get your pi to boot and look very similar.
Also SD cards aren't known for having a lot of read/write cycles compared to SSDs.
And aren't Pis at the moment quite expensive? So you wouldn't even save a lot of money with a Pi, I guess.
But @DarthCoin can probably add his knowledge here.
You explain it perfectly, I don't need to add more.
And as you said, a laptop is much easier, is even having a backup battery, so you don't worry too much about power cut. You only have to be sure your internet connection is also having a battery backup.
It’s worked well but the last few months my umbrel has been very Unstable. I can’t ssh in or access via the web browser. Only way I can get it back is by shutting off the power. I think this time I am going to hook up a monitor to the pi to see what’s going on. See if I can power down safety from command line. If not then this will be the last time I power cycle it. Close the channels and move the funds to a fresh LND node on more stable hardware. Just sucks to do this node is like 2 or 3 years old
I can't use a NVMe though or I have to upgrade my whole machine. You remember our discussion where I thought I am making a very good deal by buying a used HP EliteDesk 800 G1 USDT for 30€ with 8GB RAM but without SSD and power supply? Turned out buying the correct power supply was twice as expensive as the machine, lol. I even bought the wrong one first.
You told me you don't recommend HP but I already had bought it haha
Now I kind of regret it because of missing PCIe and in the end, I did spend >100€ on it and it has a shitty CPU (I think). A fanless solution would also be nice
these days its not just brand but the supplier itself which should be verified before buying, LOADS of chinese knockoffs of tech like SSD's and graphics cards are getting sold on 3rd party markets with "hacked" firmware that make it seem like a reputable company made it or that it has the specs you think you want but it doesn't actually i remember buying "kingston" thumbdrives that were a fraction of the capacity and they weren't actually kingston. Couldn't tell till it arrived, my fault for cheaping out though and no be aware
A lot of SSDs have 3-5 year warranties, you might want to look at using it, although they might say your warranty is void if you ran a bitcoin node on it. I'd be curious to see what happens if you try to use the warranty though.
Took me a while (and their support was kind of broken for a while lol; their own form did censor my phone number which they said they need so I had to sent my phone number to them by uploading a picture lmao) but I sent my SSD yesterday to them! They said they will ship me a new SSD.
So thanks a lot for reminding me about the warranty. I totally forgot!
SanDisk is a solid brand. I got a Standisk 250gb SSD installed in my Dell latitude two years ago that I've had since 2011, got it brand new. Hasn't failed me yet and still runs super freaking fast, as fast as when I first got it put in. Nothing but positive for me but then again all I do on my laptop is play games in my web browser, casino slots and what not, stream live sports, and browse the web/social media. Don't know how it'd do running a BTC node.
