The owner has a heart - he bought them heating mats so that they could snooze in another room.

Underground and accessible to stray cats? Sounds super legit

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 47 points 5 days ago (3 children)

And it cost the owner MILLIONS. Why? Because, you know. There were cats.

Probably caused the servers to overheat, or the cats stepping on the power button, and cost millions of Mongolian Tugrik in downtime...

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Or it's a shit post ;)

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

If the story is true, I'm guessing this was mistranslated & it could have cost them millions if the cats damaged the equipment. If it really cost them anything, they'd have mentioned what happened.

I'm guessing that the accumulated shedding did extensive damage to the equipment AND the owner and/or journalist overstated the damage 🤷

Where else would you go mining than underground?

The streets of Paris?

Oh, you said miNing? My bad!

[–] Amuletta@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Well, presumably there are doors and stairwells.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Nope. Those are illegal in Mongolia. Floors too.

That's why Nightwish have never played there.

I think "inner Mongolia" is China, here

This looks AI. Inconsistent focus, scale of cats is different, lights on “rig” are inconsistent, where’s all the LAN and power cables? Who builds a bitcoin mine in a weird tunnel?

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

The cats are too consistent between the pictures for this to be ai I think.

[–] Cassa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 5 days ago

I think it's shopped and not ai - the pixel density is clearly off. espeically the light on the orange cat on the left. look at it hovering above the servers 🤣

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 9 points 5 days ago

Bottom left cat has orange legs and a black head

The owner has a heart

Since we are talking about a cryptominer, highly unlikely.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

The owner would get cancelled online by everyone, so it doesn't worth the risk.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 1 points 3 days ago

Has one, just not his own.

[–] Cassa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 5 days ago

its fake tho, classic bitcoin slop 😅

[–] faltryka@lemmy.world 22 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

The most value for society created by Bitcoin yet.

[–] imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 4 days ago

This doesn't look like a bitcoin mine to me. Just bunch of stuff that looks like a blu-ray disc case stacked in line. No cables, no wires, no fans. I call bullshit.

[–] handsoffmydata@lemmy.zip 15 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Ah, so that’s why the GTX 1070 I got off eBay was covered in 🐈 hair.

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 1 points 5 days ago

I can sell you one if you want a card with 🐈 pee too.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

The bit cave.... Nananananana Bit man.

[–] Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 days ago

Fuck yeah, anarchy kitties 🤘

[–] SolidShake@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Bitcoin is so funny to me.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Mongolia was not on my card.

Inner Mongolia is technically part of China, not the independent nation of Mongolia.

[–] veniasilente@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago

SEELE cat meetup.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 5 days ago

Didn't china ban bitcoin mining?
