Why do you have wires coming from the outside thru the window?

Keyboard, display, mouse, outdoor temp sensor, network cable etc... The machine on the left used to be a GPU mining rig, requires frequent adjustment through AMDOverdriveCtrl, so I run it directly with a screen without the need to ssh to it each time

Now I get it, your mining rig is actually "outside". How do you protect it from the rain?

There is a ceiling, rain normally won't make their way into the balcony, and they all falling downwards. But snowflakes are more difficult to deal with, they could fly to everywhere at any location if there is just some breeze. My motherboard was short-circuited by snowflakes a couple of times

Haha, brave!

I wonder though, if there is snow outside wouldn't it be cost effective to use the miner's heat to warm your house?

I just brought all my mining crap home for that reason. Free power at work, but I don't have to run the furnace at home any more Grin
