RE: Normal Life For Most People Is Like An Episode of Black Mirror

in #television7 years ago

Maybe your interests are what blockchain and AI will symbiotically evolve into? The traditional work week and much of society's norms are definitely not the most effective way to go about things, especially with the many technological advances that we hear of but never get to fully experience.

Also, with laws and politics, how do we transcend into an off-grid micro community while not posing a "threat" to the governments? We'd need to take an extreme reverse-Amish town approach I suppose! haha

Sort:  

It would be nice if it is at least an option. I am designing a self sustaining housing unit that can run completely off grid and grow enough food to feed two people indefinitely with little to no inputs. It uses a GPU miner for source of heat and passive income.

I don't think it would pose a threat to the government. You would still be economically productive and not everyone would want to do it. There are plenty of people living off grid now and I don't think the government really cares too much.

That's so interesting... yeah I just assumed that the government might take opposition, shouldn't make assumptions!! :D interesting work with the self-sustaining housing unit. What exactly is a GPU miner? If you don't mind me asking?

GPU stands for graphics processing unit. You can use them to mine crypto coins like Ethereum or Zcash or many others. Miners also put out a lot of heat which can be used to heat your house in the winter or just vented outside in the summer. I have an 8 GPU mining rig that heats my whole apartment right now. The miner also makes me $400-$600 a month in crypto.

Very very interesting.. and efficient! Might have to look into and invest in some hardware like this.
