This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
That headline is so stupid that I refuse to read the article
Ha, my sentiment exactly.
I'll wait for the Julian Assange review.
But what does Ja Rule think?
Who cares what Ja Rule thinks? I'm holding out for Busta Rhymes.
What the fuck is wrong with this timeline.
Do the amish accept atheists?
The real question is whether they accept hypersexual autists.
EDIT: ... unable to exist without Tao Te Ching, thyme tea and a few good soundtracks.
Edward Snowdon reads a spec sheet
Snowden added, "As someone who wants to sweep away corruption, there's a lot to like in the new ShamWow. And for those really tough, dirty stains, there's OXYCLEAN!!! With ShamWow and Oxyclean, you don't need to be Rushin'!"
An infamous former U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) contractor and whistleblower has unexpectedly shared his opinion on the state of the graphics card market.
Man who did big cool thing once also has opinions on unrelated thing, news at 11.
I can’t see the context because it’s freaking X, but I bet that’s in reference to local ML hosting.
There’s a big movement to get away from corporate AI, and I don’t need to explain the importance of that to the Lemmy crowd. But Nvidia is indeed artificially crippling consumer VRAM to stop them from being used for that too much, and protect their enterprise GPU market.
The most bizzare thing is that AMD is inexplicably complicit even though they have like zero market share in that space. 48GB 7900s (and so on) would have obliterated Nvidia and sold like hotcakes, much less actually using their modular memory controller architecture… But no? They restricted their OEMs from doing that because they… Don’t want money, I guess.
AMD is much of a scum as Nvidia is or Intel was, that’s why DeepSeek is something that came from China and you would need a new player completely outside of the current chain.
I don’t see how that’s relevant, Deepseek was trained on, and is served on, Nvidia hardware.
And while I don’t disagree about AMD gouging, if AMD was to act like “scum,” they would screw over Nvidia’s pricing strategy.
But… they don’t. And lose for it.
It’s some combination of ignorance, corporate stupidity and straight up collusion, but it’s also the opposite of greed.
DeepSeek is just a recent example to the usual Microsoft or Google or Apple aka Nvidia-AMD and now at most Intel. This is not about which GPU can run what.
Deepseek is like an ant compared to OpenAI/Anthropic/Google, and they come from a completely different world, the actually competitive open LLM dev scene with dozens of companies publishing good models. I think this is a bad analogy, as AMD is not that small and new compared to Nvidia.
“They come from a completely different world.”
This is what I meant to say, not whether they’re good or bad. In this case, someone else to beat Nvidia then expecting either AMD or Intel (existing players) or even Apple (again, I am aware they don’t sell dedicated GPUs) to break the competition.
What is even this ?

Edward Snowden doing GPU reviews? This timeline is becoming weirder every day.
Legitimately thought this was a hard-drive.net post
"Whistleblows" as if he's some kind of NVIDIA insider.
Intel Insider now that would've made for great whistleblowing headlines.
Every time I see a headline that contains the word “slams,” I want to slam my head on the table
Every one who bought the 7900xtx laughing their arse off running 20GiB models with MUCH better performance than a 4080/4080Super lol
