Good evening from Kano.Is(land) and kanois.land!

There's been a LOT going on, although you can't tell from here. I've been a bit busy of late.
You know how this is run from a cubbyhole in the sub-basement of an abandoned building?
Well, this is an island. A lot of islands are the result of volcanic activity, this one included. Which could be a reason that the building was abandoned.
It has been unusually warm (in my opinion) in the cubbyhole. As it happens, there has been some volcanic activity of late. The draft through the cubbyhole just wasn't enough to keep the ants and mice cool. We tried fans, but the one cord just couldn't handle the load. We ended up scaling back and underclocking to keep things running.

I'm still working on improvements in the power supply, but with this location on the island being a bit warm, I have begun searching for new digs, as it were. Grin

Speaking of digs, Billy Miner is still going at it in that wall in the rear of the cubbyhole. The heat has been rough, but he still keeps chipping away at those blocks. I heard a few of them bust the last week.

Igor spends most of his free time looking over Billy's shoulder. He sees something in there, but he's not saying what. Since he comes from very long line of Igors, the possibilities make me shudder, especially since his grandfather worked for that doctor near Darmstadt. I'm hoping for the best.

In contest and giveaway news, I'm saddened greatly by my lack of ability to do my only job - hash for you. Unfortunately the recent rise in temperature has caused a corresponding reduction in hashpower. It sux. Embarrassed

There is good news, though! If you check my contact options in the left panel, I have a new email.
The website, https://kanois.land , has changed a little. I noticed that traffic has dropped the last few days, but there's different static content now. The pictures actually relate to some future content. Drop by, check it out, give me some feedback, please.

Although I've been down, I've not been completely out - I have been keeping up with the thread. I am touched that a couple of you mentioned me. And, since one person actually asked for me, I guess it's time to do what I'm here to do, hash for you.
Congratulations to Tarby32!!! You've been awarded 500GH/s for five days, starting May 5th! Yeah, it's the 5/5 500-4-5! Roll Eyes

Even I think that's a bit much on the name, but it keeps the theme. Grin

On a semi-serious note, this must be a labour of love, because I can assure you my profit margins are small, but they are there. Folks may question why I do this, which I don't mind (I wonder myself, sometimes). I searched for the answer to that question and did not come up with "drug-addled" as the answer. Someone else said it, more eloquently that I can:

It's about the dream of it, not the statistics.

I'm going to check on the mice and Billy. Can't have them suffering heat strokes. Need to find Igor, too. Really odd that he's not over my shoulder. Hmmm.

Until next time,

MINE ON WITH KANO-SAN!!!
