They do. Even back in their pre-UEFI days, it was possible to flash BIOS from a properly-formatted USB drive by holding down a magic key combination at power on. But it was not exactly publicized as a supported method.

That might have been true a decade ago. But GPUs and FPGAs have long been obsolete for mining Bitcoin.

Mining is happening on custom silicon in large-scale operations. They specifically observed several of those large-scale operations in multiple nations and extrapolated out. I don't see how that methodology is flawed.

It's not just storage capacity either. Google uses custom silicon just to keep up with all the transcoding.

I, for one, look forward to seeing more asteroids flung at jackasses with tractor beams in the future.

Riker and the tractor beam at the nebula. Riker, his aim true.

Yeah, but you know how VOY is. Everything always resets at the end of the episode.

Ship smashed to pieces? Fixed by the time we hear the next Captain's Log.

It's certainly no ENT.
