Aren’t people backdoor already doing this? There are lots of people who only have their phone and maybe a tablet, and for basically everything that might actually require computing power (i.e. photo editing) they end up using a web app or something.

Nvidia definitely isn’t Enron. It’s all of Nvidia’s customers that are mini-Enrons.

Enron crashed because they were cooking their books and faking income, declaring potential profit where none existed.

That’s not Nvidia. Nvidia is selling actual product as fast as they can make it at whatever price they want to charge.

Nvidia’s customers, on the other hand, are the ones who have to justify buying billions of dollars of product from Nvidia and explaining how they plan to make a profit from that.

That’s far from the only problem…

Or the Taiwanese one, since all these companies are based in Taiwan

The stock can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

I do love the idea of having a 10" tablet that fits into my pocket.

I’m still waiting for the tech to mature more, come down in price, and increase in durability though.

Priorities

Also, with mandatory AI Gamer Buddy™ so everyone will buy one themselves instead of going over to your friend’s house to play

You may as well ask me to throw away me phone entirely. I don’t carry a smartphone to make phone calls. I hate phone calls.

95% of that is spam. And an old dumbphone won’t even have auto spam detection.

I use my phone to take pictures, send those pictures, look for restaurants, navigate to those restaurants, listen to music, etc.

So what you’re asking for is to make the part I hate about phones worse, while removing all the functions I actually use my phone for.

Some of the smaller 4k sets work as an XXL computer monitor

But for a living room tv, you seriously need space for a 120"+ set to actually see any benefit of 8k. Most people don’t even have the physical space for that

On one hand, Musk.

On the other hand… Telecos.

You can either give billions more to the world’s richest asshole, or you can give billions to companies that already received that money last time and did absolutely fuckall with it.

Lose-lose

Well someone’s gotta pay for that small country’s worth of wasted electricity

These cars are passing EU safety tests which are generally more demanding than the USA.

They are definitely getting good, fast.

…for now

It’s less that people are putting faith in Elon (sure, some fanatics might be), but it’s that everyone else is somehow even worse.

SpaceX is actually getting stuff to space, despite their prototypes blowing up. Hell, even if this Starship thing is a complete failure and never works, their existing rocket, the Falcon, is still far beyond any of the competition.

The SLS: $10 Billion and a decade late to develop a ship that recycles old Space shuttle parts, then costs $2-3 Billion per launch, and maybe can only launch one every 2 years.

ULA Vulcan: currently years late, still finding problems, and even after all that gets worked out, it can maybe do 6 launches a year?

SpaceX: 1-2 launches per week.

That’s not faith, that’s just facts. I would absolutely love to have somebody else step up and take SpaceX’s crown, but… there really isn’t anybody. Bezos’s Blue Origin may have the biggest chance, but they are more likely to act like ULA than SpaceX.

Safety standards? Sounds like anti-profit standards! Guess who DOGE is cutting next!

Yeah I’ll be honest, I surprised myself when I bought my EV and my odometer went up a whole lot faster than it used to

My previous car wasn’t easy on gas so I instinctively used it sparingly. With my EV I actually do drive a lot more and I’m volunteering to be the driver for group trips and stuff much more often…

They can describe themselves again. I suppose that could be considered cultural restoration?

Haha as if that will stop Trump

At least they had diversity…?
