Tbh I was mystified when they announced the thing. It’s a clear attempt to end-run the spirit of the export restrictions of this sort of tech to China. I expect the legislature and courts to be pretty unsympathetic to Nvidia here.

Fuck NVidia honestly, those guys are chodes anyway.
Oh well. Nvidia has given everyone but AI assholes the shaft for some time now. If you throw your fans out, don’t be surprised we remember.
Nvidia and their Chinese customers had to see this coming. Wonder if they’ll also be fined for trying to circumvent the export ban?
Well, since Nvidia has more money than god, the only definition of “fine” that applies to them is “alright”.
That’s an odd expression
Both for there being no god so any amount of money is more and for Christians being banned from having wealth
It’s a common expression, especially in the US South. And what gives you the idea that Christians are banned from having wealth?
The bible, and history mostly
History? Have you looked at the wealth sequestered in churches?
Yes, but they also ban Sodomy and have you seen priests?
Or the bans on range weaponry but ma guns (predates gunpowder weapons)
Now I have no idea what you’re talking about.

NVidia won’t lose anything. That money isn’t taken away from them, they’ll just make less profit.
They would lose r&d cost
Ah yes, the R&D cost of taking an existing chip and castrating it.
