What IS that web page that pegs 8 cores of CPU and reloads itself four times before I can hit the back button. Maybe just link to the original video and not a cruft-laden-seo-dump. https://www.tiktok.com/@shortysspeedshop/video/7371594191027...

IMO, there's significant value in having text at all as opposed to only having a video. I also don't want to steer anyone towards TikTok when there's any other option.

Not sending people to TicTok is a laudible goal, but sending it to a page that's mining bitcoin via WebGPU isn't that much of an improvement.
