Same.

I just upgraded from my RTX 3080 to get away from Nvidia, and essentially had to go with the RX 9070XT because the Intel options don’t reach all the way up there.

On the flip side, my Emby media server runs a first generation Arc card, because again, wanting to avoid Nvidia at a reasonable price.

The existing products are good but don’t cover enough of the market to get the power users to switch, and they are the ones that make recommendations to everyone else.

The warehouses in the US you buy from online still have shelves. Many more than your local store in fact.

The numbers are from Hyte directly in an interview with Gamers Nexus from just a couple days ago.

You really should try to educate yourself with at least a tiny bit of knowledge before you try to enter a conversation you have zero understanding of. At this point you’re just making a fool of yourself. I’d bet $100 a bunch of people are tagging your account for whenever they come across you elsewhere on Lemmy to be reminded.

The decision is entirely about anticipating demand, it’s about the uncertainty and craptastic approach the administration is taking with them. Making changes, sometimes multiple times daily, means companies can’t plan.

Tariffs traditionally are planned and communicated, with months or even years long timeframes for companies to plan around. Tariffs being added, removed, exclusions and inclusions changing daily means no one can plan. So the only planning they can do is to just stop. The Trump administration doesn’t know what the fuck they’re doing and will destroy the economy in the process while insisting they are doing a great job.

Hyte is not reliant on the US market, many of their competitors however are US based and reliant on the US market for their sales. They can easily be put out of business by these tariffs in the short term, further putting US businesses behind competitors.

Note, I said previously signed NDA. They’re not going to send an NDA and test information at the same time.

But I guess most people don’t have experience with NDAs in the first place, especially not in relation to software testing.

I’m always amazed at some people’s stupidity.

The company isn’t going to randomly send you an invite to a beta that hasn’t been publicly announced. Any external testing at this point would be with people that have extensive experience, and have a previously signed NDA.

So you’re saying to load this shell second.

When you have thousands of possible upstream causes, but the end consumer effectively only sees and cares about two (availability, and price) then of course it’s all going to look the same. When you have a fever, cough, and shortness of breath it could be COVID, or pneumonia, or influenza, or just a cold, looks pretty similar when you have limited symptoms to work with.

Especially to the perpetually online edgelords on places like lemmy and reddit. Might as well just accept any and all conspiracy theories without evidence as well while we’re at it, because they’re apparently just as valid as plausible economic reasons when there is limited data. I miss when the tinfoil hat people without a shred of evidence were pushed out of society instead of being given the same platform as evidence-based conclusions.

A reminder that tariffs are actually a thing.

A 25% tariff on a $600 item is $150. Even taking into account the tariff applying to the import cost instead, sales margins aren’t the majority of the cost. The tariff is applying to the wholesale cost to import the product, sales margins are then added on top of that.

I haven’t seen a single thing from AMD about whether the MSRP was set taking the tariffs into account or not. If not, then that should only apply to the devices imported before that went into effect. And everything after would be at least 25% more, more like 30% taking into account sales margins are based AFTER import costs.

I mean, when you sell parts of your business to others you sort of give up control of them. That’s the way it works dipshits.

How can investors take any of these corpos serious when they constantly fuck things up everywhere they go.

Sadly, that’s actually a decent choice, as much as I hate to admit it.

18 000 employees and not one to run a “check dates on google” department?

To be fair, Google has been removing notable dates from their calendar.

No they’d still be running XP if they could.

Hitler was a drug addict and the trains didn’t run on time.

German trains still don’t run on time. Can’t blame that one on the Nazis, that’s just a German thing.

There are plenty of step-by-step guides to run Deepseek locally. Hell, someone even had it running on a Raspberry Pi. It seems to be much more efficient than other current alternatives.

That’s about as openly available to self host as you can get without a 1-button installer.

First rule, always have backups. Especially with an older drive, make sure anything you might need is duplicated somewhere else. Ideally off-site to prevent loss in case of things like burglary or a fire. Even something as simple as Google Drive or OneDrive.

Personally, I’d take a look at replacing it with an SSD if you can afford to, not only because of the age, but better performance. You may not notice slowness, but making the jump from a HDD to an SSD is still at least a little noticeable even on secondary drives from my experience.

it’s senior board members that are the real problem, the ones making the actual decisions and putting profits over anything and everything else.

Most of the board members at these companies are CEOs of other, often related and even partnered companies. While the CEO at a given company isn’t the only one to blame, CEOs in general covers the vast majority of the fuckers.

EVs don’t use the brakes nearly as much as regular ICE vehicles. Regenerative braking can provide nearly every bit of braking necessary for everyday driving.

And half the time it’s not even that fast anymore either.

Might as well order a burger from an actual restaurant, to go, for the same amount and pick it up on the way. Half the time they’ll even bring it to you curbside.

They should probably work to finish all those NEOM projects first. They’ve got a pretty big chuck o’ change announced for that already, something around $1.5 Trillion already.
