Agenda:
Check out our new discord community channels - anyone may post - #gaming #hardware-equipment and #crypto-news!
helpme3 vs minerfarm agent
having an agent monitoring and calling a script for threshold - like watchdog services.
we already data gather and allow profiles to miner.farm.
event handling would be in the minerfarm agent - and be recognized by mf.
custom event handlers - that can be pushed just like configurations
reboot on condition - is a great expansion
https://forum.getpimp.org/topic/6131/sec-commissioner-suggests-excessive-crypto-regulation-hurts-growth
Regulation is just like computer security... There is always the balance between productivity and security. More security means more time spent dealing with security on both sides.
Security needs ?
Has nothing to do specifically with crypto, more like bad actors getting caught.
The feds can recognize the crimes.
Hardware corner
1660Ti - anyone gonna buy these? will they be a good price point for hash/watt?
No Raytracing - seems like a retreat and that it was released early or hype feature?
Coin/Algos (Prices/Mining Profits/Difficulty)

Dev Team is working hard on the back-end and new PiMP tools.
(select Beta Team testing of the PiMP tools will be happening)
This is the design prototype - NOW is the time! to give design input
All of the tools are going to be looking like pimpup3 soon.
Being able to separate all the services across the resources they need, was a real feather in our cap!

Q&A
Lily, did you enjoy the work on miner.farm 3?
It was great to roll out the fixes to all the problems and bugs we wanted to fix and what people asked us to do or fix.
It was an enormous amount of work - and designing the entire project and infrastructure
The changeover happened at the complete wrong time and we had a heck of a weekend but it's been pretty great overall!
Anyone attending crypto meetups/conventions?
Please provide your known working OC settings.
