So even if the energy cost has increased, they save a nice amount by operating here.namiks (76)in Snaps • 21 hours agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743527520Infrastructure is also really poor here, a lot of power cuts. So that makes me think they might be connected to their own grid to maintain 100% uptime.namiks (76)in Snaps • 21 hours agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743527520I guess they're all for it. There's a lot of ATMs here and various offices for little exchanges and such. I'm not sure how bitfury are profitable here.

I got curious earlier and looked up what the norm is today and they're absolutely huge machines. They even sell configs…namiks (76)in Snaps • 21 hours agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743527520BitFury has a huge Bitcoin mine north of Tbilisi, tempted to go and photograph it. Could be fun to see the sheer scale of mining now, so different to back when I mined with a…namiks (76)in Black And White • 23 hours agoRE: Monomad: A walk through the Soviet pastGrowing up in England, I saw a lot of what we would refer to as brutalism in some of the architecture, mostly around the 60s - 80s. Which is a similar period to that of the…namiks (76)in Reflections • 2 days agoRE: Trapped by Survival But Would You Risk It All? I think a lot of people start a business thinking they can drop whatever it is they're currently doing, not realising all that does is reduce your cash inflow and speed up the…namiks (76)in Photography Lovers • 2 days agoRE: Air Astana - Travel in Comfort and Styleмолодец :^) When I flew to Istanbul in 2023 I was terrified, but I downloaded some episodes of Atlanta and some other shows from Disney+. I remember essentially covering my…namiks (76)in Photography Lovers • 2 days agoRE: Air Astana - Travel in Comfort and StyleI hate flying too. I get pre-flight anxiety though for the most part. So once I'm on the plane I know there's no going back. You'd think there's more fear in that but in my case…namiks (76)in Snaps • 2 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743449040You can't really do anything in the moment. I'm on the top floor of a Soviet era crumbling commie block (probably better than new builds tbh) and out of nowhere it's like your…namiks (76)in Snaps • 2 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743449040This region does sit right on a tectonic plate, so they're pretty frequent and not usually that bad. It's the second one I've experienced since being here, the first was last…namiks (76)in Snaps • 2 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743449040Like two minutes before posting that I felt it. I looked it up and there was a 3.8 one in northern Armenia where they tend to take place. You can feel the tremors in Tbilisi.namiks (76)in Snaps • 2 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743449040Earthquakes are such a strange feeling. Casually sitting down and then feeling everything around you weirdly moving from side to side.namiks (76)in Snaps • 3 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743377760The weird thing was that the parents/adults were just as bad as the kids. That's actually even worse given you'd think they'd have more awareness. Like not smoking in a zoo…namiks (76)in Snaps • 3 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743377760I knew this one wouldn't be the best, but it was a nice experience still. I'll be checking out the one in Yerevan in a few months, hopefully that's a bit better.namiks (76)in Snaps • 3 days agoRE: Snaps Container // 1743377760I swear I remember coming across your account when it was barely a few hundred (Steem) or so.

A little tight of an image due to the 85mm focal length but I couldn't pass up the opportunity given how funny it was.namiks (76)in Worldmappin • 3 days agoRE: Exploring Tbilisi Zoo: The real animals here were the peopleSomething I forgot to mention in the post was how there was a stray dog that was running around the zoo.
