    I've got a few VMs that are sitting on LVM, Ceph and ZFS in a Proxmox cluster. I want to move a few of them to another datacenter.

    Two requests for STH crypto mining

    Can we get ETH GPU and CPU as well as Zcash CPU threads like the monero mining performance thread. Maybe break Zcash GPU out from the Docker thread too? I'd assume those are the big 3 now I'd want to mine.

    nvidia-docker on Ubuntu 16.04 and need to change docker installation method

    I just wanted to inform STH members that you cannot use apt install docker.io to install docker for NVidia-docker anymore. The new NVidia-docker 1.1 requires docker-ce or docker-ee You can use the wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh method to install and then install NVidia-docker normally.

    Tensorflow + Monero in Docker Impact?

    I know that Monero and Tensorflow use different CPU parts and Monero doesn't run full CPU. Will mining Monero in Docker while training models in Tensorflow hurt training performance? A lot?

    Cheap 1U PCIe M.2 Riser - why don't they exist?

    Why aren't there stacks of 1U M.2 PCIe riser cards out there? Think about all the 1U server cases with empty PCIe slots because you can only have 1 riser card. If these existed you'd be able to add stacks of NVMe drives to 1U servers easily.
