Cryptominers Have Already Cracked Nvidia's RTX 3060 Hash Rate Limiter ⌘ Read more...
Well dang! 😳 That didn't take 'em long! I _wonder_ how many engineers hours it took for NVIDIA to come up with some mechanisms to "thwart" the use ofCrypto Mining on their new cards and how many $$$ it cost (_think wasted_)? 🤔

If they don't plan on doing a bunch of invasive garbage to stop people from doing what they want with the computer part they own, then the whole thing looks like a tremendous blunder. The only problem is, while Nvidia's executives do have a certain deficiency of IQ points, I doubt this is the end. They will start adding invasive garbage, and we can expect the experience of GNU/Linux users with Nvidia cards to diminish even further as a result. I predict we'll be seeing mod chips for graphics cards within two generations if they keep this up.

@mckinley Yup it's certainly looking that way... Remember when NVIDIA was _actually_ half decent? 😂

@mckinley Gah yeah sorry man, its actually a known issue and since this has come up a few times now, I'll reopen this. There are _very good_ reasons why things are done the way they are and GIFs unintentionally suffered, mostly due to security.

@mckinley I’ll see if I have enough energy this weekend to fix it 🤗
