asciilifeform doesn't expect that ameri-analogue of e.g. this document will ever surface. likely, no such thing exists. much 'implicit' 'gentleman's agreement' in ameri-fishwraps |

imho 'infiltrate' is perhaps understatement. moar like the relationship b/w master and dog. |

by my math 1-2 of those oughta pay current property tax at roughly the cost of 1yr's worth. |
19:16 |
signpost |
those taxes are often limited by "homestead" classification on how much they can increase per year, and meanwhile BTC rises to perhaps offset fall in miner yield. |
19:17 |
signpost |
if they simply unilaterally raise taxes to million/year, I'll know I'm living in a failed state and act accordingly |
19:17 |

i.e. not pay. |

asciilifeform suspects that the ideal location for this trick would be e.g. alaska (otherwise add a dime or two per kW/hr for cooling) |

imho could be +ev to manufacture miners intended for passive (i.e. steel stake in earth) cooling, w/ integrated pv panel |

I think so, just someone needs to convince the solar people. |

even a minertron that can dynamically obey command 'use x kw/hr' would be a++ interesting. |
