It's so insane. My 5-year old GTX 1060 (320€) is still better than a new gtx 1650 for 250€. Right now there is no direction to upgrade my system except for byuing an apu, but since my 1060 is way faster this doesn't make sence unless i want to get rid of my gpu to get a smaller case (e.g. X300)


I was lucky to buy a 1080 Ti for like 500$ off a miner a few years back. Bitcoin at that moment ended up cheap enough that GPU mining became unprofitable, and everyone was liquidating their farms.


I got one of those at retail price a few years ago and it's still one of the best cards out there in terms of video memory. I'd have to upgrade to a 3080Ti or 3090 to have it beat.


I also have a GTX 1060 that I got in... 2017 I believe.

I looked up prices recently and it's worth more now than when I bought it, and the ones available that I've seen are used. Had no idea that would happen and now I'm just happy I have a graphics card at all.


You can do this with Notepad++ and Block-Selection in like 1,2 Minutes:

- Paste the original list

- Block-Select (Alt + Pressed Mouse1) a block-line behind (trailing) all entries; I admit this step is hard to describe with words, but currently im unable to provide an image/video

- Paste "https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id="

- Block-Select all ids from original list and paste it at the end

- You may be finished now or you can Regex-Replace " +" with " " to remove the long spaces between the link title and the link itself.

Block-Selection + Copy-Paste is amazingly fast for doing things like that.


It reminds me of the StarCraft briefing room: https://superiorrealities.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/screen...
