What in the world is going on with that?
Those are all Nvidia Tegra processor cards. Hopelessly obsolete now, but still fairly powerful.
The vendor said that this was from a startup that was doing group screen mirroring of netflix accounts. That is, you could sign in and share, via a chrome extension, what you were watching to the rest of the (remote) people.
However, we all thought he was full of shit and it was a coin miner of some sort. The amount of video processing shunting going on for a mass adoption of what he was talking about would have been massive.
That just seems overly complicated for a just streaming Netflix content. Possibly full of shit, as you said.
It was supposed to be a groupshare thing with people in many locations, like a movie night for the covid faithful.
But yeah, that's totally a bitcoin miner.
