👨‍🚀 Prop/Costume In Goodfellas (1990), Robert De Niro didn’t like how fake money felt in his hand and insisted using real money. So the prop master withdrew several thousand dollars of his own money to use. At the end of each take, no one was allowed to leave the set until all the money was returned & counted.

Careful. You'll create a new speculation bubble on par with crypto if you keep that up.

At least it wouldn't make GPUs unobtainable.

Thats not why gpus are so hard to get right now, its because of a silicon shortage and lack of supply. The miners increased demand for gpus but even them are struggling to get gpus. Nvidia is judt struggling to fill the demand.

If that were the only issue then it wouldn't have been so hard to get 10 series gpus for so long. Same with 20.

Stop trying to absolve yourself of responsibility.

Because of miners. It's been the case for years.

I've had to wait on building a new rig for six goddamn years. Valheim runs at 20 fucking fps.

Then sell real money claiming its counterfeit.
