    Question Over voltage

    So I bought a helium miner. The brand I bought Finestra covered up the Ethernet port. So I dumbly used a drill bit to hollow out the plastic. Drill bit went Into Ethernet port. Gotta say It was a prefect estimation of where it would be. Just used too much force.

    Question Over voltage

    I uhh put a drill bit in the working one.. got a usb 3 to Ethernet adapter. Thinking it’s bottlenecking the working rasb pi.

    Question Over voltage

    Yeah that’s what happens. How hard is it to take off the Ethernet adapter and solder it to another rasb pi same model..

    Question Old laptops and MacBooks.

    I have a helium miner, basically a rasb pi 4 model b, thought maybe the parts could upgrade my existing setup and was thinking of building a server (node) I guess a vps would do the same, or a trading bot. This being said i have very little experience. I upgraded my Lenovo pc 2007 for recording...

    Question Over voltage

    I didn’t know… now I do. I was lazy and plugged a 12v plug from my security cameras into my rasb pi 4 model b. For a helium crypto miner. It gets really hot almost immediately now. Anything I can do with it, bought a new one.
