MS’ Satya Nadella is forgetting the rule “The customer is always right.” He is trying to force customers to a product they didn’t ask for or really need along with a lot of other customer unfriendly issues like nagging to use onedrive subscriptions and forcing to sign in to a MS account to use the OS. This is seriously getting me to consider moving to linux for my next pc build.
I think the tech industry got used to people not giving a fuck as they shoveled more and more anti-features with weak “feature” reasoning to back it up (like convenience of having all your files in one place to justify continual data transfer between the device and their servers, processing audio remotely to justify sending an audio feed, “you can access your history” to justify saving the history, etc) that they are surprised that there’s pushback as it enters this new level.
操你妈. Going over his fucking head after years of overpricing GPUs and ruining fun.
Never trust a man in his 70s wearing a new shiny leather coat.
Everybody knows this, right? It’s a general rule, like never accepting a ride in a white cargo van.
I guess my next PC will have a Nvidia pro card instead of the cheap af GeForce made for poor people.

Gross, I’m throwing my leather jacket into the donation bin now.
Just a great guy doing great things.
Rock stars doing this stuff somewhat makes sense, it’s all in good fun, and who hasn’t had a crush on some celebrity singer or actor?
but a CEO? Seriously?
Elon’s gunna be so fuckin’ jealous when he sees this.
And this CEO?
This guy has kids right? I would be so embarrassed
I hope this looser and his little leather jackets get fired no golden parachute and lives the rest of his life working retail
He’s already filthy rich even if he got fired tomorrow.
It’s fiiiiiiine.
The whole thing some like some giant check kiting scam or some weird looping Ponzi scheme. I’m going to invest money into your company so you can buy more of my products. Where is all the money coming from in the first place? Neither of these companies should be worth as much as they are.
This has got to be some sort of tax fraud at the very least. That or money laundering.
I hope Nvidia fcking brokes and back on his knees begging for his old clients who used to bought their gpus to buy the shitiest new version of the non improved but twice as expensive product.
If your talking about gamers, let’s be real here. They’ll lap up whatever scraps and bullshit Nvidia will give them and then thank Nvidia for gouging them.
I mean look at the recent stream surveys.
AMD is an option and many are switching. More support for AMD in linux too.
I switched.
i really wish we had more that two fuckin graphics card options to choose from but that capitalism for ya.
Intel Arc = 3
Instead we have 30 versions of the same deep fried chicken sandwich.
Does this mean the AI Bubble will burst?
Let hope it not only stalls but vaporizes.
The deal was too sloppy.
To not specifically define AGI was sloppy.
Pop! Pop! Pop! 💭
With the amount of money in this bubble, it would be better if slowly deflated instead popped.
Yah, lots of people also depend on the market for their futures. Pensions, 401Ks, IRAs, etc.
I don’t think that matters compared to what this crap does to the planet.
poanrt?
planet, probably.
Bingo!
poanrt
