You can blame me. Just like washing a car, I just bought a B580.

[–] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 2 points 1 hour ago

It definitely didn't help that I bought a Pro B50 which shipped yesterday. My bad, everyone.

There goes any chance Intel had at competing in data-center AI processors.

Fucking great. $800 Arc B580's with proprietary drivers that are shit for Linux.

When US treasury gives intel billions then takes an equity steak... the normie investor has a melt down...

When Mega corp bails them out to form a monopoly... that's proper 🤡

Mmm, equity steak... I'll take mine medium rare.

Can't wait for my grandkids to be living in a fascist cyberpunk dystopia

You probably won’t have to wait that long… sadly.

Until the last few years of Intel falling on its face and Nvidia mopping up cash with crypto I would have never expected that Intel would turn into an underdog. This also sucks because now Intel won't be competing in the GPU space, bringing it back to just AMD and Nvidia.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 3 points 6 hours ago

Intel management spent entire 2010s using R&D money to buy back shares while counsins at AMD and nvidia prepped to run a train on them.

these exec should be prosecuted for treason and given the rope. until these parasite are punished for their crimes, US big business will keep fucking up.

I remember when AMD bought out ATI

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 16 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Good luck competing with AMD in this space. You can't just turn up the wattage in laptops
