Your honor, all’s fair in love and war! By the way, what do you think of my jacket?
GET YOUR HAND OFF MY RAM
Take a look at the market-lockup here!
I see that you know your judo well!"
100 Billion of merchandise? That’s a lot of shirts and pens
“But she was over the age of consent. How many of you can say the same thing?”
Case dismissed!
Also, the Trump admin was made aware of it a year ago. Are you saying they were complicit with something illegal? Surely Trump did nothing wrong.
We really are the worst timeline
Executive branch was in on it.
It is actually much bigger than we know now. If there an actual good and fair justice system in the United States, this guy would be in prison for life. Watch the latest Gamers Nexus video. It’s all fucked from the start.
Why is the internet so obsessed with this.
Because NVIDIA is the linchpin of the overextended AI buildout and it turns out they’ve been knowingly sidestepping sanctions. Which in turn helps explain why Ukraine keeps finding NVIDIA AI chips in Russian drones.
Huge percent of the recent stock market gains from the last years were due to AI up until this week. And it was NVIDIA who was floating the cash to keep things buoyant in a lot of cases.
That’s one angle, and by now after all these years it’s probably aged-into the biggest thing…
But I think there is another angle too…
Once upon a time, nvidea was making hardware for gaming PCs. Seems like a distant memory, and my elder millennial bones creaking can probably be heard by my “OK
boomermillennial” comment but:Friggen crypto came along and nvidea was like “we’ll follow the money: fuck our old gaming customers”. That hurt. Then, right when it looked like that was gonna blow over… LLMs. Dovetailed right back to: “we’ll follow the money, fuck all our old gamer customers”
For all us who just got buttfucked by our old bff, it’s a guilty pleasure.
1), weʻre hogs for drama and have goldfish memories
2), for-profit media responds to this, creating a cycle which rewards the feedback loop of shocking headlines with no durability
3), heʻs one of the most powerful people on the planet in the midst of one of the biggest bubbles (potentially) in history, in a time where wealth inequality is greater than the gilded age. it would be ridiculous NOT to be paying attention to something as potentially consequential as this.
The wild thing is that people were wondering what would happen if one of the AI companies like Anthropic failed, and that such a thing might pop the whole AI bubble.
Instead, you’ve got the core hardware supplier/financier for AI who has been holding a gun to the entire supply chain being the one who finds themselves in trouble.
Yeah this is like, 10x worse.
Can’t do shit about it, grab the popcorn and watch the show.
funi
Cause it’s an omniscandal hitting the guy who took the computer away from us
