If you're using nicehash you're not mining bitcoin. The payout is in BTC but it mines whatever it thinks is most profitable. On your 2080ti, it's not bitcoin.

But if you're a high wage earner, those losses could have offset taxes at a 35% marginal rate, whereas you will pay a lower rate on long-term capital gains. It's not just delaying, it's lessening the marginal rate. As a young

A consumer tower (air) cooler can clear 150W on the stock fan and if you stick some 2k-3k rpm push-pull it will probably clear 300W. Fancier vapor chambers and thicker, higher RPM fans can clear up to thousands in server environments.

I didn't attack you. The SEC was underfunded in 2008, and was still underfunded in 2018. A good source showing that their budget has increased by 82% over those 10 years doesn't change, or even challenge that. My original points w

Generally, you would look to a datacenter line of SSD which is rated for much higher endurance. These are typically overprovisioned much more than consumer ssds in order to meet the endurance requirements. I think most OEMs opt not to let y

Yes, because you could do more than the value of the lease in damage to the property, and then be so insolvent that there is no way to recover any of the money from you. I'm not saying I agree with this. Landlords are ridiculously abus
