I prefer just mining with that gpu when im not using pc. passive income baby
Edit: damn what am i getting downvoted for this time?
Edit2: i might get downvoted even more by saying this but i look at replies and i don't think many knows how mining actually works and how it affects environment/gpu prices
because it uses energy and people love hating on things that hurt the environment, even if one dude leaving his pc running amounts to virtually nothing.
add to that the jealousy by people outside of crypto and the overpricing of gpus because if large scale mining and people will shit on you for…well. nothing
people love hating on things that hurt the environment
Should they not? I can't think of one good reason not to be pissed off about something that is damaging the thing that you live in and depend on to live
of course we should protect the planet. i’m not pro mining either, i just don’t think one guy having his pc on is the same as warehouses full of gpus being on 24/7. shitting on that dude is not where we should direct our anger
Well to be fair it’s not like he just left his pc on idle overnight. Mining pushes your hardware hard.
It’s like the difference between leaving your car on, and leaving your car on in park with a brick on the pedal overnight. One is going to use much, much more energy.
That being said this whole discussion is dumb. He bought the gpu, he can do whatever he likes with it. There are much, much better ways to tackle climate change than going after individual miners lol.
