Trump says 25% tariff on most Canadian goods will take effect March 4
  • If citizens do not pay taxes but government runs out of many, that is a healthy economy. If people want public services to cover costs but they don't pay taxes then the people can hand out their own cash and the people can pay the expenses of other people to help them instead of government paying the expenses of other people.

    If you are concerned about the economy, give away to your own money from your bank account to anyone who needs it.

  • [Gamers Nexus] AMD, Don't Screw This Up
  • Everybody can ignore AMD and skip the 9070 XT for $700, there's no value. Wait 3 months and buy the 5070 Ti or a 5070. The 9070 XT needs to be $500 to build brand ID so people will spend money on it, and 9070 for $400.

    I said before that if the raytracing ultra performance without FSR matches or slightly beats the $750 5070 Ti without DLSS, the 9070 XT needs to be priced lower than $550 5070 or people will not buy Radeon.

  • Jim Keller joins ex-Intel chip designers in RISC-V startup focused on breakthrough CPUs
  • If Keller gets to manage the RISC-V development team for 2 years, the startup's version of RISC-V is going to come a long way in a short time. I want RISC-V to overtake ARM in all mobile and single board systems but I know that it can't replace x86.

  • ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
  • I think I would agree due to when I have been sitting in public somewhere with others sitting around, they have clearly been programmed by their phone, subservient to their master. I do also wonder if there is an IQ element to it. Having a lower level of personal intelligence so they have been conned into believe that they must have a phone that is connected to internet at all times everywhere.

    Spend 2 months without cell service, without mobile service, and you will see how far gone many, many people are. I'm fully serious about live without cell service for 2 months, the world does not look the way you think it does.

  • ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
  • Correct, use VoIP with wi-fi service instead of cell and data. It also makes the calls untraceable for location for best privacy practices. There's no way to trace where in the world a phone is if using wi-fi to call standard phone numbers. For personal calling, not a work phone, some people don't care about messages and calling when they are out walking, shopping, attending events. They want to focus on the real world around them, not phone stuff.

  • ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
  • I'm open to hear if you guys disagree with me, but that is not simply about not having a smartphone as much as it is about not having cell service, not using data service. If a person uses a libre VoIP app, there is no need for cell service, and people actually can live happy lives disconnected from internet when they are outside or in public.

    Society must revert their mentality and not expect constant immediate access to everything. Absolutely nothing happens on the internet for personal activity that can't wait a few hours or the next day.

    I use phone only for direct communication, zero multimedia, zero social media on phone. Everything else is done on computer. Especially banking, that is on computer website only for security, never on phone. I despise and resent using a phone for websites

  • Tell DOJ to investigate nVidia fraud

    Hearing about the 5090 dies with missing ROPs, that sounds between misleading and fraudulent. Having 5090s with 176 ROPs, other 5090s with 168 ROPS, that's on the die of the GPU that gets send to board partners, MSI, Zotac, ASUS, Gigabyte, etc. Whoever made the GPU, that are not to blame, they got the die of the GPU from nVidia, but obviously didn't know that part of the GPU functionality if missing.

    Having GPU dies or chips sent to companies that do not match publicly stated specs from nVidia merits a legal investigation.
