NVIDIA could enter the desktop CPU market with performance equal to AMD and Intel
Yeah, but, it's Nvidia, the same company who's a key figure on the AI-Govt circlejerk.
The absolute best thing we can do is boycott them AND OpenAI, because neither company gives a F about the People.
While Huang and Nvidia continue their current trajectory, I'll never buy another Nvidia product.

In the US, reaching out to other countries for advice, even if they're our allies, seems to be viewed as treason. At a minimum, seems like treason against "real" masculinity, on which American culture is fueled, especially now.
'Why don't you just stop to ask for directions?'

‘Another internet is possible’: Norway rails against ‘enshittification’
Reply in thread
"...there's isn't going to be a not-enshittified Norwegian Netflix opening up next year for you to subscribe to."
Yes, but there could be. There's no actual mechanism besides pure greed that leads to enshittification.
Imagine a service with a set price, no ads, never increases prices except to maintain operation in the face of inflation. Not beholden to shareholders, but rather to stakeholders.
Corporations have a legal obligation to make profit for their shareholders. However, being incorporated can also add legal protections for employees. So, we need such companies who are beholden once again to their stakeholders.
