The person who made this, Con Kolivas, is also the creator of cgminer, one of the most popular open source software for mining, also one of the earliest.
He is an Australian anaesthetist, a brilliant person. He has done so much work for Bitcoin.
He also made the brainfuck scheduler for Linux (unfortunately never made it upstream, was later renamed to MuQSS and then abandoned)
It was pretty nice, since it was designed for low latency applications like audio and also in my experience my system was much more responsive under high CPU usage (like a compiler running) compared to CFS
Sure 2% might be worth the convenience… but I think for small solo miners the point is to demonstrate full decentralization and keep 100% if you win the hash lotto

I use this pool for my nerd miner v2!
Why would you pool for solo mining

The thing is that you need to have your node well connected, otherwise you might lose the block.
It's definitely worth the 2% to not have to worry about any network issues.
A lot easier than I thought, wish me luck freaks

That's pretty dope. Now if I just had a bitcoin miner...
GekkoScience Compac F 300Gh/s+ USB
~$175 on Amazon
Seems they’ve messed up their TLS cert - at least Safari doesn’t like it.
nice

With BrainsOS you can set the wattage lower to reduce the noise, you can also turn your S9 into a heater
