You mean "Which site to put on an eternal blacklist because it spreads fake-news" day
In this case: Geeknetic

Well the 8 gig 3060ti are $400, so what are we looking at here $500 for the 12 gig?

Just make the damn cards, wtf.

Tried archiving a WaPo OpEd yesterday, and I was 6332 in line. It never did archive.

That's odd, I've never had an archive failure.
Today I was 5500 in line, in 10 seconds it had updated and was archiving.
If that ever happens again open a new browser window and try again ... or it could have been aliens
You weren't trying to archive a site about aliens were you.
Never archive alien information.
They don't allow it.
But oddly enough you can archive lizard people webpages with no issue.

And I suppose you'll need to take out a bank loan to buy a 20GB Nvidia card.

NVidia thanks you for the depths of debt you're willing to incur in order to support their billions in profits.
