This may not fit perfectly into the that category but i think it's cool how Lazarus Jones exists in the media in some capacity in most of the GTA games. One of the best threads of continuity throughout the series.

Not just mp3, all lossy audio formats use psychoaccoustic analysis. That's how they figure out which data to throw out.

Probably have a few cards running the displays and the rest of them mining some sphere-themed memecoin
