It is stupid because it shows a complete lack of understanding of life experiences different from your own.
There are many reasons people rent instead of buy. In the USA, they could be compromised financially by medical expenses due to serious illness and sold their home to pay the bills, they could be recently divorced and have lost assets to the SO, they could be young and yet to get into the property racket, they could be priced out of the market due to work circumstances, they could have moved recently new a new part of the country and be renting before they buy, they could be waiting for the inevitable property crash in San Deigo to get in cheap, they could ...

There are a million and one obvious reasons why people might rent instead of buy other than not having prioritized buying a home.
Your remark was stupid because you haven't figured this out. My guess is that you are young white, affluent, middle class and live in North America and haven't travelled much.

Just to avoid any misunderstandings, if you had the curiosity to open your electrical panel in a generic US residential home, this is how it should look like if you take down the cover:



The image shows 120Volt lines and 240volt lines. Both circuits have ground wire. Each 120V and 240V require two wires to complete circuit. 120V requires 1 hot and 1 neutral. 240V requires 2 hots. Some 240V lines have additional neutral wire. Neutral is not absolutely necessary to complete a 240V circuit. Some 240V lines have white and black instead of red and black.

To avoid burning the place down, follow the rules below about the wire sizes:



With this in mind, here's how one should wire their 250V sockets depending on the type of wires running to your mining location from your electrical panel (-2 wire or -3 wire) ..



or



You definitely have this setup already if your house is built after 1970, since most of the driers and ovens are using 240V in your house. Older houses may be the exceptions I'm going to be trolled on.

As always, if you're not sure what you're doing, get a licensed electrician. Just bear in mind you don't need a dedicated 240V circuit if everything you have is ONE/TWO SP30.

If anyone is interested, I can build to order CSA certified power distribution (sub) panels (metered or un-metered).

Please clarify how my comment was stupid.

In some countries, even owning a watch can be considered as being rich...

See the situation in 3rd world countries.

I agree that mining has become mostly centralized by the wealthy, but I am not rich at all.  You don't need to be rich to own your own house.

Indeed. Mining has become a toff sport now. Its by and large lost it roots, and this loss will be the eventual death of the bitcoin ecosystem as it gets swallowed up by the fiat system.

This is a little pushy .. next time, if you're a miner, you should own a boat too, have 5 kids and live in a mansion, if one can find a good enough reason. Three years ago you'd find ONLY geeky guys with their GPUs/CPUs in the landscape. Now we jumped to data-center grade stuff, and I don't see the need to own a house yet just for "being a miner".

This remark isn't just thoughtless, its stupid.

+1 Hoping Norway doesn't ding me too bad when they get shipped to the DC there. Fingers crossed.

I am hoping the compensation make for a shorter haul to breakeven land... come on BTC rise!

This is another awesome news Thanks!

Also if you have enough $$ worth of mining equipment to necessitate a dedicated 240v circuit, you probably should have had home ownership higher on your priority list.

I find this argument thoughtless. Those of us who don't own our own homes are often prohibited from making these kinds of modifications.
