If I recall correctly I remember hearing from Level1Techs that Nvidia’s been having issues also on their enterprise solutions having thermal runaway problems and so other B2B companies are looking at AMD and ARM solutions instead.
Amazing Nvidia, here’s how I feel about your products so far:
My deepest condolences to the die-hard Nvidia fans who are unknowingly getting fleeced this year (Nvidia for their 50 series aren’t selling native performance but Multi Frame Generated fake frames)
Thanks!
I signed as well / I’m doing my part🫡
Nvidia really living up to their fanbase it seems
Just sounds like more pros to me✨
After watching the trailer I watched Welonz play it and I thought the game was meh but this is just my own opinion of it.
If anyone here enjoyed it that’s totally fair!👍
I’d imagine this is the case mostly due to the barriers to entry for console development still being high such as:
I could be wrong though
“The exact reason for this jump is unclear, but it could be connected to the rising popularity of Valve’s Steam Deck,” the GDC report says. “This year’s survey didn’t single out Steam (or Valve’s handheld gaming computer) as its own platform, because it’s a hub for PC and Mac games. But it appears some developers do view it as a unique platform. For instance, when asked to name other platforms that interest them, almost half (44%) wrote in Steam Deck.”
I think that’s a very reasonable guess, and I’d add to it that the simple fact of accessibility may also play a very large role in the popularity of PC as a development platform. Making games is hard, but doing it on PC is about as easy as it’s going to get: Learn your programming language of choice, give Valve 100 bucks, and bang, you’re selling your stuff on Steam.

Cases of influenza and RSV are currently on the rise, and COVID-19 is “stable but shows early signs of an increase,” according to the latest respiratory virus update from the B.C. Centre for Disease Control, for the week of Dec. 22-28.
Looks like the mask mandates in BC’s health-care facilities are back up till the potential risk of respiratory infection wanes.👍

What the fuck asus get your shit together
Edit:
Finished watching the review and gods…
Asus this is the most pathetic display of a half-assed prebuilt in existence. At this point I have to wonder if they just hooked up an assembly line to chatgpt or something cause this infuriatingly awful.
Fuck you Asus.
Your poor attempts only lowers the bar for the PC industry. At this point no one should buy any of your products just like NZXT’s.
Think of it like a race:
Whoever is last is considered lagging behind as consumers will generally shift towards the best competitors.
If Corsair is actually doing right by consumers (especially when it could be a real monopoly like the current anime and manga industry) and raises the minimum bar then we should praise them.
If a person is doing right by others, shaming and attacking them defeats the purpose of trying to make society more ethical.
Corsair’s i500 response:
First, we’ve ceased production of this SKU and no longer offer it, as it does not meet our performance standards.
For customers who already have an i500 with the Intel Core i9 14900k and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 and are unhappy with the product, we will offer a couple of different solutions.
One is to return the unit for a full refund, no questions asked.
Second, should you want to keep the unit, and you are unsatisfied with how it performs, we will have something for you, also.
To bring the CPU power level down to better fit within the cooling envelope, we will be offering a BIOS revision that allows you to set the processor to the power and performance usage of a 14900 (non-K) CPU, providing more options for adjusting the cooling modes. We also will offer a rebate to customers who choose this option to match the pricing of the new 14900 (non-K) model. Simply contact our customer service.
Looks like Corsair is pulling ahead in terms of good, high quality customer support.
Thank fuck cause ASUS is severely lagging behind in this aspect.
I’ve truncated the quotes to provide the most critical info but I would highly recommend watching the video when you can! 🤗
FUCK YEAH

A couple of potential systems might involve subsidies and time-based temporary protections (similar to iframes in games) to incentivize the build up of domestic competitors.
Implementing a system that incentivizes the constant import of foreign goods and services would be the replication of Hong Kong’s mistake(before they got taken over by China and the CCP):
Increasing dependancy of external systems means the reduction of self-autonomy and independance especially when it comes to critical infrastructure such as internet and technology.
I see this as a fine balancing act as you don’t want to always depend on externalities but at the same time, the fear of foreign goods is a major cause for concern as it plays a part in the increase of racism and extreemism, while also destablizing the bridges of trust you have with others (which is def bad as you’d be placing your eggs all in one basket) cause you to become more susceptible to bad actors.
These complex systems makes me hesistant in the reckless recommendation in opening domestic markets to foreign competitors without further analysis as you don’t want untrustworthy entities from coming in as it would only perpetuate a winner-takes-all system thereby leading to an eventual collapse of the market with a monopoly at the end.
At the same time echo chambers are just as toxic and leads to monopolistic systems. And this is why the real solution is the dedicated research to find a balance in which I am not the top analyst to speak on.
TL;DR:
shit’s complicated because of the systems involved, the best solution will come from researching further
or opening the telecom sector to foreign investment.
This doesn’t fix anything, this just shows thewalrus.ca’s financial interests that is unaligned with the interests of most Canadians.
Foreign investors are not that different from venture capitalists, this decision would only pump up the line which would be in the interest of investors but for citizens this has a high potential to drive up local costs.
Heads up I posted this a couple days ago and provided additional details:

I don’t know why people are downvoting this post as everything stated in the article is true and unfortunate.
