Some days are long… but we got the container maneuvered into place… after about 6 hours of doing things without all the right equipment.
Next is electrical and miner installation.

A final good morning from the beach. 
Peaceful, snorkeling, shell-collecting type of day. 
Good morning #nostr
Eastern hemisphere checking in for the day.
Marauding gang has been around all day. The little thieves got our trail mix yesterday… 
150m wide sand beach at night. 
Might be a while before I run into someone here in Kenya who knows what this shirt is about. 
The little bandits are out in numbers today. 🐒 
Bitcoin mining containers being built from scratch in Nairobi. Load testing soon. Mining incoming! 
Got some more improvements done yesterday (our lines are getting closer, decreasing the dump load) on Gridless OS, our demand response software managing the miners.
Began implementing alerting to help monitoring. 
Starlink for an hour. Gotta make sure people don’t stay online all the time when in the bush! 
Back to Kenya after a week in Miami meeting people in-person for the first time. Great conversations, glad I went.
The real one. Good moms make a massive difference. 
Busy week! Especially with the local Bitcoin community and a visiting college group. 
Village life.
Having electricity changes everything.
Minigrids make this happen in very remote areas.
Hot pot, refrigerator, TV, music player, and electric burner. 
An evening in the tea fields of Malawi. 
Decided to test some solar at our place in Nairobi.
Here we have 2 of our Whatsminer M31s running off of 8kW of solar, running through 8 batteries (20kWH) to give us approx 2 more hours of hashing each day.
Will check the real numbers later, but we’re going to see if we can get 10+ hours per day off this setup. 
Out for a muddy walk with the little dude.
Ok, very interested in this NIP for p2p trading of Bitcoin using Nostr.
Need this badly. Will figure out how to get African engineers on it too.
