My Actifit Report Card: October 15 2020

I played a couple of rounds of disc golf at my favorite course with my son today. I was feeling experimental so I tried playing with my noise canceling headphones on.

I was having a tough time driving off the tee with the headphones on. There is something about having that extra weight on my head the makes it more difficult to get a good release angle. It does make me focus a lot and slow down more. I think I could get used to it if I practiced more.

It actually helps a lot with the shorter throws and putts. When I played over by the train tracks and road the ability to shut out some of the noise was really nice.

I can see how playing with these headphones on could be really helpful in some cases.

I found a large mushroom out on the course today:

I ended up picking it up because someone else had picked it. I thought about eating it since these kind are usually pretty tasty. It was a little old and was probably wormy so I ended up putting it in my yard under the tree. I hope that it will start growing here or spread its spores around.

Sometimes there have been mushrooms growing under this tree so I know it is a good spot for them. The kind of mushrooms that used to grow here were edible but not really good tasting. This kind I found is tasty, as I recall.

Always make sure you can properly identify a mushroom before you eat it. Some of them are very similar looking. Most of the ones with pores like the one I found are edible but I am not sure exactly what kind it is.

Here's another look at it:

Crypto news:

I'm back to mining a PoW coin. I swore to myself to give up on that nasty habit, lol.

Anyhow, I decided to mine Koinos see cryptoulogs by @surpassinggoogle for more info

The miner is pegging my CPU and burning through the ETH. I've put it on a one day frequency for submitting hashes in order to conserve my ETH some. It shows I'm going to burn through .2 in about three weeks. It does seem like I'm earning more KOIN than the value of the ETH used in mining. (If I can figure out how to sell some - I might need to do that in order to support my mining habbit.)

If I can figure out how to get it to mine on the Raspberry Pi I might be happier about it. My main machine burns a lot of power when running full out and it makes it rather difficult to do much else with it. For much less power I think I can get about the same hash rate on the Pi.

Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S9+. Text and graphics copyright lightsplasher & litesplasher.
