Reception

gollark: Thanks. It's alternating between 400 and 536MH/s now.
gollark: I have no idea what that is. I just set it up to see how it worked.
gollark: I got about 54MH/s on my GTX 1050. The weird thing is that running Minecraft and the miner simultaneously only dropped the hash rate by about 1MH/s.
gollark: I have an astonishing 0.
gollark: Probably bad programming.
