You can tell this image is AI because the guy has three arms but real people only have two
Also the too few fingers per hand.
Maybe he needed he still the other fingers for a gpu or Ram?
That's not an arm, but it is prehensile
What an amazing middle finger. Very little knuckle, full fingered, fist in anger, lips curling for an expletive. Fucking beautiful form.
I remember the drivers that inspired that finger. Thank fuck for vulkan
Beat me to it!!! Classic!
Product Roadmap:
Omfg take my upvotes.
You gave me far too many laughs to justify in a simple upvote, thank you. lmao
I can't believe the company pulling through with affordable but powerful graphics cards is Intel.
This is like the season 1 bad guy joining forces against a greater evil.
Do Intel's GPUs still take a hard hit on Linux?
Nvidia did invest in Intel
The history of consumer computing is just looking at all the different ways Nvidia has figured out how to fuck said consumers over
Remember when we had to have a secondary nvidia GPU just to play games?
Remember all of the fucky hacks, install orders, and workarounds we needed to make it work when our main GPU was an AMD card?
Or when it was leaked for the 3rd time that nvidia was paying devs to make their game run worse on AMD hardware?
I don't think they really are out to fuck consumers so much as they are an after after thought.
The consumer space just isn't able to pay what companies are paying and so in the words of Don Draper - 'I don't think about you at all'
What is a bit of a dick move is their consumer division paying lip service and pretending like they matter to the company at all.

As long as there are alternatives, I’ll never buy an nvidia product again.
More like pre 2025 and post 2025
Nvidia always has been the biggest dick around hardware manufacturers
Yeah, but NVIDIA used to be at least somewhat affordable. Now it feels like you have to get a credit check in order to buy any type of their components.
Yet people keeps buying their product. It's almost as if voting with your wallet is all that'll ever work.
Nvidia doesn’t care about consumer votes. They have plenty of AI dollars.
They have plenty of AI dollars for now.

Billionaires love when you think you can only vote with your wallet. They have many, many more votes than you. Nvidia doesn't give two shits about your wallet compared to the ones paying them to fill datacenters.
voting with your wallet
I'm terrified how many people think buying and selling stuff is moral, civic, and democratic duty. Econ 101 doesn't even work in economics, why are we applying it to everything?
The sales of consumer GPUs make up a veeeery tiny percentage of nvidias revenue. Nvidia could stop selling consumer GPUs tomorrow and it wouldn't even make a noticeable dent in their revenues. And what other options do u really have? Any other company ain't much better.
Nowadays, yes. Wasn't this way 10-15 years ago. I've been against their practices enough to not buy their product these last 20 years, which feels like a very lonely hill to die on.
We don't have the money to back up our vote in this 'election'. If you could even call it that. Capitalism isn't a democratic process.
If you havr the money for a Nvdia GPU, i think you have the money for an AMD or Intel GPU...
If you genuinely think they care about making a mere thousand bucks on a lumpy graphics card then you have been sleeping under a rock. Their costumers are Amazon, Microslop and Meta. Not you or me.
I am perfectly aware but that does not mean you should continue to buy from them, they still make money from them and they are evil as fuck also, when companies will inevitably start to buy less from Nvidia, it will be a problem for them

They would absolutely care if their audience flocked to AMD.
Graphics cards are still roughly ten percent of their revenue, that is not a lot, i'll give you that, but they are a stable income. When this AI demand inevitably dries up it would definitely still be in their interest to not have alienated the entire gaming community that made them in the first place and that Nvidia as of right now still dominate.
Now, yes. Not 10-15 years ago. Not 20 years ago when GPGPU was still a rather obscure concept. The Nvidia problem isn't new regardless of how younglings and newly-enlightened seem to think so.
Well, I did my part at least.

That first middle finger went up in 2020 and never came down.
