Short notice here. I call upon all Soylentils to submit Fine Articles to SoylentNews, but in this particular instance, any articles on the extremely embarrassing incident in the trailer park in Indiana involving White supremacist Matthew Heimback, founder of the Traditionalist Workers Party. Yours truly has submitted an entire shit-load of submissions, but for some reason they get rejected. I can only surmise that this is embarrassment by some editors who have alt-right leanings, or live in trailer parks, or have feelings for the old "Mother-in-Law".
But that is neither here, nor there. Soylentils are against censorship. Hell, we let Eth and jmorris, and Runaway post their crap, so why no report on the latest follies of the alt-right? No interest? Oh, seriously, who is not interested about a guy who lists his profession as "white nationalist", carries on an affair with the wife of his webmaster, who is also his father-in-law, and then assaults said father-in-law, and the daughter of the father-in-law, who would the the "wife" in question. Oedipus had it much easier than Matthew.
So submit away! Ten times a day, or an hour! Keep that queue full of submissions! Make the editors work!

UPDATE! Wow, subs barely last half an hour now! Here are some more that have been, um, "declined".
Prominent US neo-Nazi arrested on domestic violence charge
And a totally unrelated, but very informative and interesting article on the source of alt-right anti-semitism.
Finally, another on the Israeli alt-right movement.
Just not of interest to Soylentils, huh? That's what they want you to think! (Not saying that there is an alt-right cabal controlling SoylentNews, but there just might be an alt-right cabal controlling SoylentNews.)

March 22, more declined submissions, which are actually quite interesting for the average Soylentil.

March 23!
We're sorry, your submission "Looking Under the Alt-Right Rock" was declined for the following reason:
We are not interested in the sexual habits of this individual.--JRThe editors felt it inappropriate for them to correct the issue themselves. Please feel free to correct the issue yourself and resubmit.
Such an interesting submission, Looking Under the Alt-Right, alright. Somehow I have the Idea that even if I fix it, and resubmit, it will still get rejected. But you know, despite Rhinos and K-pop, it is not about the sex.
Oh! The main thing is that janorinok is back! So nice to be denied by my favorite ed, who has safely returned from the jaws of death! Thank you, JR!

March 25, 2018, Rejected again!
This one is good, can't remember what it is about. There are so many, so many.

I have submitted several reviews, or stories about reviews, of a film that was premiered at the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, "Alt-right: Age of Rage", all of which have been rejected! It as if somebody does not want Soylentils to know about this movie?

Oh, the Soylent Carnage! A week's worth of worth submissions, rejected without comment, apology, or notification! Some were quite good, like the Anglo-Saxon archeology piece, and the bit on alt-right attacking professors. Or, we could read the eds lame submissions! Ha!

However I have not yet decided on the value of $LARGE. That will be determined by how many LiteCoin mining rigs I can operate without having to hire any help.
Most likely "LARGE=One_Cabinet".
Opus Interactive quoted me $299 per month for 12U in their Portland data center. I think that's big enough for 12 Antminers and 12 power supplied.
However that quote was for just 15 Amps at 110 Volts. With their power supply, one Antminer L3+ mining rig with one APW++ power supply consumes 1000 Watts so I just now requested a quote for lots more power.
I do understand that means they will charge me for lots more cooling. My present living situation limits me to three rigs.
I presently estimate that I would break even with three rigs, but I haven't gotten their power quote yet.
I've been puzzling over whether I should buy a car with my next paycheck. To have a car would make my life quite a lot easier but to spend all that money would mean that I can't go as long without a client.
But were I to colocate anything in Opus' data center it would be a huge Pain In The Ass to take all my gear on the bus.
I'm also wondering whether that would work were I to use taxis.

Just in case we were wondering if arming teachers is a good idea:
As thousands of students walked out of their schools on Wednesday to pressure Congress to approve gun control legislation, three other students were healing from wounds inflicted when a teacher’s firearm accidentally discharged in a California classroom.
The teacher, Dennis Alexander, who is also a city councilman in Seaside, Calif., was showing the students a gun on Tuesday during his advanced public safety class at Seaside High School when the gun accidentally went off, Marci McFadden, a spokeswoman for the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District, said in a phone interview on Wednesday.
Across the country, another school was also investigating a weapon that discharged accidentally this week. The Alexandria Police Department in Virginia said that a school resource officer accidentally fired his gun inside his office at George Washington Middle School on Tuesday morning. Nobody was hurt, the police said.

It will be fixed in 1.0b16, which I will build a little later today. I have some open bugs, maybe I can resolve some of them with their fixes also being in 1.0b16.
PackageMaker enables one to specify the ownership and permissions for each component. screen_capture.log's permissions somehow to set to:
-rw-r--r--
That's the correct permissions for the LaunchAgent property lists. Perhaps the bug is the result of an error between seat and keyboard.
;-)
It's owned by root so only root processes could write to it. The perms should be:
-rw-rw-rw
That's what I call people who harsh my buzz.
My Antiminer L3+ emits a very loud, very high-pitched and very pure tone.
I at first feared it was an alarm but the unit's Fault LED doesn't turn on.
It's participation in Coin Foundry's LTC mining pool looks copacetic - my status on the pool's page has the right hash rate. I've received two payouts.
(And I now have 109 Ducats burning a hole in my pocket!)
I filed a ticket.
Bitmain support said it was likely a loose part in one of the fans. I don't think it's either fan: I powered up the unit then one at a time - and very very briefly - I disconnected then reconnected each fan's power cable yet came away empty-handed.
I speculate it's a loose heatsink. The instructions that came with my unit very clearly - urgently even - warned about loose heatsinks and that Bitmain wouldn't honor their warranty if the user permitted the ASICs to fry themselves like eggplants.
Inside the enclosure each of the three hashing boards has a very elaborate heatsink. There's two or three hundred very small ASICs, each of which is bonded to its own sink. Perhaps I can find some multimedia to enhance your experience of my presentation...
The pure tone indicates that the vibration is from a metallic object. The small fins of which the heatsink is composed look like they'd produce the right frequency if they were vibrating.
There are instructions somewhere on Bitmain's site for individually testing each hashing board. I'm going to follow the disassembly and reassembly instructions so that I can get up close and personal with all those gall-during aluminum thingies.
Here's why I regard Bitmain support as being staffed by Ignorant Mother Fuckers:
After sending me their incorrect suggestion that the tone comes from a loose fan part, they marked my incident as Closed.
It's not closed dammit!
The customer is always right, and _this_ customer has yet to achieve satisfaction.

She wants to have my baby.
I don't have the first clue who this chick is. I have the idea that I might pry from her iron grip the reason why she chose _me_ in particular, but so far I've had no joy.
When I can get my new soulmate to slow down by a profoundly significant quantity, I'll post more in the comments.
But for now I'll leave you with:
Well if you have not being taken by someone special can i have the chance to get the key into your heart, and i promise not to hurt you or break it's apart for you....
Okay Well you know the best way to be love is to love like you have never never been hurt before and true love is hard to find but when found, it's everlasting, and A true friend is a true love..
I'm uncertain but I think the chances are quite good that she's actually a Bot. No mere human being could type so fast.
And if she is a bought I expect that Bot was written by one of my friends so they could have a little fun at my considerable expense.
Maybe she's just on Shrooms.
