NVidia won't lose anything. That money isn't taken away from them, they'll just make less profit.

Will someone please think of the shareholders?!

[-] DebatableRaccoon@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

I'll think of them burning in the depths of hell. Close enough, right?

Ah yes, the R&D cost of taking an existing chip and castrating it.

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.

Nvidia and their Chinese customers had to see this coming. Wonder if they’ll also be fined for trying to circumvent the export ban?

[-] Stovetop@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

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

[-] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 8 points 1 month ago

It's a common expression, especially in the US South. And what gives you the idea that Christians are banned from having wealth?

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

The bible, and history mostly

[-] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 4 points 1 month ago

History? Have you looked at the wealth sequestered in churches?

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes, but they also ban Sodomy and have you seen priests?

Or the bans on range weaponry but ma guns (predates gunpowder weapons)

[-] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 2 points 1 month ago

Now I have no idea what you’re talking about.

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Having priests raping children is not allowed but it happens

In 1139 the Pope banned crossbows (bows, slings, etc) because killing from a distance was against God

As for wealth

The collection plate is there to divide the town’s money up between everyone there so the poor can buy food for the week

Greed and Gluttony are both banned and tie into wealth

Some random nonsense for you https://www.epm.org/resources/2019/Dec/13/ten-ways-materialism-ruin/
