Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 29-5-2021: Wisconsin


29th May, 2021.



Right … 

I now have cleaner — ish — teeth: after a hygienist appointment, yesterday.

And meant to go shopping, once I’d finished.

I didn’t.

I felt mildly woozy: something that I blame on the second AstraZeneca jab, the day, before.

That’s the only effect I have had!

At ANY rate … ?

I’m going to try and do some shopping, today.

Frankly?

I’d like to put Marmite on something … !

I take it you watch the news, occasionally?

I do: technology interests me, as does anything going off in my town.

Every-so-often, Brentwood get’s the occasional drug raid: they’ve happened on my street, I know that.

Occasionally?   Someone opens up a a cannabis farm: I think we’ve had one of those in my street, as well.

What we haven’t had … ?   Is an illegal Bitcoin mining setup!

It seems that, over the past few months, West Midlands police were investigating a cannabis farm in Sandwell.

But turns out to have been an illegal Bitcoin* mine.

Well … the mine, itself, wasn’t illegal.

It’s connection to the electricity grid was: the thing was using electricity without paying for it.

It’s a genius idea, in a way.

The mine’s organisers are going to be serving less time for stealing electricity, than they would for growing cannabis.

Frankly?   I think we’re going to see more of these.
