Someone has to. Can I take these When Nvidia announced the RTX 3060 graphics card comes with a limiter that cuts it’s Ethereum, mining efficiency in half and then called that limiter unhackable.? That was a mistake because crypto miners immediately started trying to hack it., And this week it appeared that some had succeeded. An imagery posted from a tie.
Facebook group appeared to show a system with RTX 3060’s mining away at the cards, full hash rate.. Really, what did Nvidia expect That people would hear it’s unhackable and then be like Oh okay., I’ll just pack up my things and go mine. Some I’m just gon na go mine.

Facebook has been attacking Apple over and while it could protect users from third-party tracking, it doesn’t protect them from Apple which collects user data. In order to serve targeted ads Google’s taking a similar tack, they’ll soon be blocking third party cookies in Chrome, while still selling your Data to advertisers, themselves. ( foreign language ), How many languages do you know? Interestingly, T-Mobile announced yesterday that they’re going the opposite way.. If users don’t opt out by April 26th, the carrier will automatically share their information with advertisers., Okay cool. But where’s the option where I don’t get tracked by Apple or Google or T-Mobile, because I think that involves moving into a cave in Vermont or living with Bernie Sanders out there I hear his got some warm mittens [ James ].

Russia didn’t like the way that Twitter was allowing people to post horrible things like spreading the word about opposition protests.. So the country tried to throttle the social platform.. It appears they kind of bungled the operation and ended up slowing down their entire internet instead. [ James ].
That’S our Russia. See if Twitter would just listen and censor things the way Russia wants. They wouldn’t have to skip out on NASA’s moon base and work with China on making their own moon base with space, blackjack and moon hookahs.. Actually, it sounds great., NFTs or non fungible.
