History

Furnace was named for the presence of an iron furnace.[3]

gollark: .
gollark: You can either have a shortage with some random subset of very fast people able to buy them, or have scalpers at least make it possible for people to get GPUs urgently by throwing money at it
gollark: Complaining about scalpers is just going after the obvious issues and ignoring the fact that *there are not enough GPUs*.
gollark: It might lead to more expensive GPUs in the long run due to increased segmentation killing the second hand market.
gollark: Scalpers only exist because demand outstrips supply. Due to mining and shortages.
