Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
Pro:
a major problem for miners is heat dissipation
the chips commodify more every year
Con:
retail energy costs more than wholesale energy
heat pumps are more cost effective in most cases
Heat pumps are more efficient, yes, but people still use space heaters to heat small areas. I can't pick up and move a heat pump around my home lol. Heating a small area a few more degrees is going to be cheaper than heating the whole house more a few more degrees (even with a heat pump).
The key is to live in an apartment and then install aluminum heat fins on every shared wall. Bonus points looks a little like a medieval torture chamber, but the real win is heating bill.
