I don't think anyone is seriously considering getting a 3xxx series GPU, at best it would be Q3 for availability but for price we still need the crypto bubble to burst, until then retailer will jack-up prices because miners can afford to make a profit out of them

One of many reasons why US Government need to provide incentive or at least soft loan for whoever investor to build sophisticated up-to-date fabs in USA.
 
To reduce water consumption further, the authorities will suspend tap water supply in the said areas for two days a week, but those harsher restrictions only apply to the populace, and not industrial users.
Won't people just stockpile more water than they actually need in advance, and shift their use to the days when it's available, negating any benefits? <_<
