Joey Steel posted:Basically one couple out of a big group of friends of mine were all "we're going to get married, but have girlfriends join the relationship if we both agree to it" that spiraled out to where the guy got more angry and eventually they divorced when they both started stepping out on each other. Ended up that he decided "gently caress it" took a rifle and did a house clear of everyone at one of the football parties we all used to go to. Shot everyone once to down them, then went through the house for headshots after people were incapacitated, with multiple shots to the face of some folks he was angry with at the time. Really broke the one military friend in the friend group, because that's where he got the idea from, I'm pretty sure. I wasn't at the party as I was working in another state at the time. polyamorists gently caress up so many things for people in their lives. selfish rear end lifestyle if you ask me

I remember the thing with crypto is that if the price gets high enough, people just start making custom processor stuff specifically suited to bitcoin and then all the GPU miners are outclassed and their GPU farms are worthless. is that still the case today? seems like we're at the GPU mining phase of the bubble and we should be hitting the custom hardware phase any day now

Shipon posted:Ethereum's mining algorithms are heavily memory intensive and no one seems to be able to make an ASIC that can handle it. Apparently the ETH devs can just arbitrarily change the algorithm to make it more difficult to make dedicated mining hardware (absolutely no one mines bitcoin with GPUs anymore, they've long been outclassed by dedicated hardware which cannot do anything but bitcoin hashes). Kind of interesting that for their supposed praise of a network which no one can ostensibly control, they just allow a central group of devs to tweak the system like that but hey, none of this poo poo makes any sense. drat ethereum sounds like a loving pyramid scheme (more so than most crypto)

So your consumer brands will hold up well, relatively speaking, as will your companies with a strong balance sheet (apple, google etc` I'll have you know tesla is a core component of the S+P which must mean it has a strong balance sheet. now to just take a big sip of water as I read anything at all ever about tesla...

Shipon posted:Typically miners will undervolt their GPUs because overclocking them won't increase hash performance enough to make up for the extra electricity. The fans running full bore might prematurely failure and the memory on the 3080/3090 runs pretty hot so those might be something to worry about with mining GPUs though well that's nice to know at least
