Honestly this seems like an efficient use of waste-heat generated by the computer -- use it to keep you meal warm!

Maybe in the future recipes will come with cryptographic hashes you need to crack in order to warm your processors to the appropriate level and length for cooking

We should be thankful that they don't DRM their food so you can warm only KFC food in the KFConsole.

Or make you buy KFC to operate the computer—see "Drink verification can".

Towards the beginning of cryptomania there was a company selling room heaters where the heat was produced by GPUs or ASICs or something.

Look, you’re cold. You want heat. May as well help pay the heating bill.

Don’t know if they’re still going.

I started you mining Litecoin back in something like 2014, when I was in grad school. My appartment had purely resistive baseboard heating, so might as well mine some coin whole heating during Canadian winters right?

I stopped after making a few bucks because, well, I needed the PC to do my research work and investing in a dedicated rig wasn't really worth it (on a grad student budget).

I'd be a bit concerned about the hygiene though..

It would need to run a synthetic load to keep food at safe serving temperatures even when not gaming.

To the glorious tunes of Slagsmålsklubben no less :)

By putting in frozen food you can overclock it until it's cooked!
