You can tell this image is AI because the guy has three arms but real people only have two
Also the too few fingers per hand.
Maybe he needed he still the other fingers for a gpu or Ram?
Product Roadmap:
You gave me far too many laughs to justify in a simple upvote, thank you. lmao
I can’t believe the company pulling through with affordable but powerful graphics cards is Intel.
This is like the season 1 bad guy joining forces against a greater evil.
Do Intel’s GPUs still take a hard hit on Linux?
“I’ll never root for Al Swearengen. Shame on that man!” vibes.
The history of consumer computing is just looking at all the different ways Nvidia has figured out how to fuck said consumers over
I don’t think they really are out to fuck consumers so much as they are an after after thought.
The consumer space just isn’t able to pay what companies are paying and so in the words of Don Draper - ‘I don’t think about you at all’
What is a bit of a dick move is their consumer division paying lip service and pretending like they matter to the company at all.
I think it’s rather telling that there’s not a single company that’s touching any of these currently insanely overpriced products and going, you know? I think I’m going to prioritize the human customers over the business customers. Sure, we may not make as much money, but we would have truckloads of goodwill and generate thousands of lifelong customers.
And I understand the business reasoning for that, but great businesses are not built by bean counters any more than wars are decided by bullet rations.
Man… The way I see it is if you nail down a small corner of the market, you’ve won. Like yeah, you’ve only got 15%, but holy wah you have 15% all to yourself and that 15% is dedicated to you. That’s a great outcome. Probably why I’m not a CEO.
Well, I guess I’ll just buy my hardware from a different supplie-
sound of twin-engine B-52 Tariff Bomber zooming overhead, as wallet buster economic sanctions whistle towards their targets
More like pre 2025 and post 2025
Nvidia always has been the biggest dick around hardware manufacturers
Yeah, but NVIDIA used to be at least somewhat affordable. Now it feels like you have to get a credit check in order to buy any type of their components.
Yet people keeps buying their product. It’s almost as if voting with your wallet is all that’ll ever work.
Billionaires love when you think you can only vote with your wallet. They have many, many more votes than you. Nvidia doesn’t give two shits about your wallet compared to the ones paying them to fill datacenters.
voting with your wallet
I’m terrified how many people think buying and selling stuff is moral, civic, and democratic duty. Econ 101 doesn’t even work in economics, why are we applying it to everything?
The sales of consumer GPUs make up a veeeery tiny percentage of nvidias revenue. Nvidia could stop selling consumer GPUs tomorrow and it wouldn’t even make a noticeable dent in their revenues. And what other options do u really have? Any other company ain’t much better.
Nowadays, yes. Wasn’t this way 10-15 years ago. I’ve been against their practices enough to not buy their product these last 20 years, which feels like a very lonely hill to die on.
Well, I did my part at least.
I think I bought my gaming rig on whim with 32gig and Nvidia before the shitty RAM prices at least.
Even in 24 or so it sucked how much of the total price the medium awesome gfx card was.
How much is this now, do these cards exist? Artificial scarcity?
