That wouldn't solve debt problem either because after excluding extraction costs you won't be making much while also adding extra supply to already existing one which would create new, lower price equilibrium.

Woudln't solve any debt because increased supply would drive the prices of metals in the asteroid down.

Click bait tittle while in reality economy wouldn't be effected by much at all. If suddenly a giant ass gold cube 1x1x1km were to appear out of thin air the current value of such cube would be: 763 567 200 000 000 000 (Seven hundred sixty three quadrillion USD). If I did the math correctly: 1 billion cubic meters of gold*19282000 grams/cubic meter*39.6USD/gram) Now you might think this would drive economy nuts and make it collapse. Well no... Because that's YESTERDAY's price and since our currency is not tied to gold the economy would be fine. Meanwhile gold would be nearly worthless. Price of gold and other rare elements is high because they are RARE. Increase the supply and the price will drop.

You'd be surprised how much bribery is involved in business on all levels of management. My first post graduate job was a ''spot load dispatcher''. For those who don't know, spot loads are loads that need to be taken asap from the factory because main contractors cannot provide required capacity at given day/week. Your job as a dispatcher is to make a quick email tender and wait for offers to come in. Later you give spot loads to whoever offers best price while also using your own judgement based on your experience whether the selected carrier is performing well. Eventually you get to know managers and companies which are constantly contacting you for such loads. With some you become quite friendly and overtime you meet them and they make you an offer you to make extra cash if you were to provide them with more loads at slightly better price. In the end if you get along with a company and they are always on spot with their performance you agree to that. As long as you don't give out loads at too high of the price you can always justify giving them loads at better price because of their performance. I'm pretty sure large contractors who always win annual contracts also give their share to sales department as well. it's just how business works. And if you think this is bad, stop being naive and grow up, real world isn't a fairly tail and if you won't play by those rules others will and you'll be out.

Recently I've upgraded my GTX560Ti to 1070 and now I'm upgrading rest of my system. I plan on using Samsung 950 Pro M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD for windows and games so I'd like a motherboard that supports it(I've been out of the loop regarding SSD development for a while and it's a little bit confusing). Preferably red or black but it doesn't really matter. CPU is gonna be 6600k so I'd like to be able to OC it as well.

Thank you for your replies. Now I just have to do some case modding because my NZXT Guardian is too small to fit MSI Gaming 1070 The CD bay bottom part causing some issues

I've just got my MSI GTX1070 Gaming which is huge upgrade from my previous GTX560Ti. The problem however is that I've lost my extra power cables that came with PSU(Corsair 650w modular). The question would be: I have 2x 6pin connectors that used to power my gtx560Ti, however both of these connectors have 2 extra pins. I've tested and it fits nicely but I'm not sure if it's ok to do like that.

I've been changing my passport in EU and it's required to have photo and fingerprint taken in order to get one.

Just wrap GPU in between the clothes and check it in. If you have sturdy luggage case your GPU will survive the trip with ease.

Lets try to do some math: 300mm silicon wafer has surface area of 70.650mm2 (Pi * r2 or 3.14 * 1502). 14nm skylake quad core K series has a die size of 122.4mm2 meaning we can have 577 CPU's on a single wafer. However we should remember we cannot effectively use all of the surface area of the wafer around the edges + space needed for cutting out individual CPU's. So for the sake of math I'll assume about 500 CPU's per wafer. I found that complete wafer cost about 5 000$ making individual CPU to be about 10$ each. However as many pointed out, there are other costs that are way more staggering. For example FAB it self can costs as much as 10 billion dollars or more + few more billion dollars in designing and refining new architecture.

I don't think that electricity usage for average consumer is much of the concern and it's more marketing than anything. Most energy saving features in consumer products comes from business lineup side because there, energy savings are extremely important due to share volume of CPU's/GPU's. While directly it doesn't affect individual consumer by much but if we were to multiply millions of consumers world wide the reduction in overall energy consumption is huge and considering that most of our energy comes from burning fossil fuels it actually adds up to quite significant level world wide.

In Denmark most AIB cards seems to be around FE price level with some cards being slightly more expensive while some like STRIX being ~25eur cheaper.
