@umbrel This only makes sense if the model runs locally. And if you’re not planning to add 128GB of unified memory to the next Umbrel this won’t happen.
in five years your home server will run more software that matters to you than your phone does. agents that know your context, your habits, your finances, your family. running quietly. on hardware you own. welcome to the future.

@miquelgirones1 A company in Bulgaria has to do bookkeeping and taxes. Need to have substance like an office. Car needs to got to Bulgaria yearly for check. Total useless advice.
Buy a car in Dubai🇦🇪, plate it in Bulgaria 🇧🇬, and drive it across Europe 🇪🇺.
Legally.
Here's the play:
1️⃣ Create a Bulgarian company 🇧🇬
2️⃣ Buy the car, put it inside the company
3️⃣ Plate it in Bulgaria 🇧🇬
4️⃣ Drive it anywhere in the EU 🇪🇺
Instead of paying 🇵🇹,🇮🇹,🇪🇸, etc. taxes on it.
Same car. Same roads. Fraction of the tax.
Most people register cars where they live.
Smart people register where it's the best.

Täter im Netz kommen zu oft ungestraft davon - vor allem bei Kinderpornographie. Dafür hat das Kabinett heute beschlossen: IP-Adressen werden künftig drei Monate gespeichert und bei begründetem Verdacht zur Strafverfolgung genutzt.
not exactly.
Täterparadies is your trademark once you say it is AND you start using it in "commerce".
Nobody can use it without you (the owner's) approval. It's also up to you to enforce this.
Trademarks are historically for restricting people from using a mark, but that is not the goal of the open source Bitaxe project.
@skot9000 So if I get this right: My trademark is Täterparadies, but because I have not registered this everyone can use it, or even register it and than keep me from using it??
What kind of sense does it make if I say it’s free to use if it’s anyway??
@frankhatfrei As it says in your screenshot this is trademark REGISTRATION and is different than a trademark.
Luckily in the US it is illegal to register a trademark that you don’t own.
@frankhatfrei@skot9000 The logo and the brand can become the property of someone if they decide to pay for it.
But then anyone can oppose it within 3 months following the filing of the trademark.
Subject to filing fees and a lawyer.
Bitaxe is open source under the terms of the GPLv3 for software/firmware and OHLv2 for hardware. These are “copyleft” licenses specifically chosen for freedom.
@frankhatfrei A lot comes down to higher-quality components, better cooling and fans. The device runs with higher frequency and lower voltage. In addition very high quality control standards. That combination brings around 25% more hash power.

Today we took action against online shops that, in our assessment, are misleading customers and acting against the ethos of open source.
We identified cases where Bitaxe devices were advertised as “Made in Germany” despite being imported hardware. Claims like this are misleading and deliberately create a false impression about origin, quality, and legitimacy.
Open source stands for transparency, honesty, and respect for both users and builders. Misrepresenting where products come from directly contradicts these principles and erodes trust in the entire ecosystem.
This is not about restricting open-source participation. Anyone is free to build and sell Bitaxe devices.
But using the Bitaxe name while making misleading claims about origin or affiliation is not acceptable.
We will continue to act against practices that mislead customers and damage trust in the Bitaxe open-source project.
Buyers should always verify the source and be cautious of misleading claims.
