2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

"Well, first of all, they're completely wrong," Huang said in response to a question from Tom's Hardware editor-in-chief Paul Alcorn about the criticism.

"The reason for that is because, as I have explained very carefully, DLSS 5 fuses controllability of the of geometry and textures and everything about the game with generative AI," Huang continued.

Just a elongated way to say AI slop.

STOP BUYING NVIDIA

i feel like we might as well drum up som boycotting spirit while we're at it. Shaming certainly has an effect as evidenced by his statement here, and if we could add to that a collectivist 'no more money for you doofus' energy i think that'd be swell.

We aren't their main customers anymore, and it would least force them to also aknowledge this themselves. Hopefully.

Idk folks, keep adding pressure on these ghouls, seems to at least have gotten their attention

STOP BUYING NVIDIA

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 hours ago

I gave them.up in 2020. The measurable difference between them and AMD didn't warrant the expenditures, and neither did Intel. Absolutely no issues since.

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

Unfortunately social media users who post are not the average gamer and that's very apparent when 95% of the discrete GPU market is Nvidia now.

Plus doesn't help the only other two competitors is AMD who are also jumping on the AI bandwagon and doing not actively competing. Then there's Intel that's in bed with Nvidia now.

Boycotts in a duopoly, especially when most clients are businesses, don't work.

Feels odd to say it but suddenly I'm happy Intel didn't (completely) shit the bed.

I never understood why everyone was completely happy with one manufacturer having dominance. Everyone seem to think it was just ok for them to be no competition in the market. Here is exactly why we need that competition.

[–] yggstyle@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Exactly. The more compititon the better. Imagine what we'd get if nvidia was split into 3 new companies and had to compete. 5 total companies suddenly would be very motivated to make a substantial product to bring to market at a competitive price. We as consumers need this diversity to keep the market honest and moving forward.

Would have to boycott pretty much all hardware. I don't know of any large hardware manufacturer that's not chasing the AI investment money and bribing the Trump admin.

Don't have to do anything, I'm just being vocal about certain feelings hoping others do the same. Boycotts don't work yadda yadda sitting on your ass also don't work bla bla..

in really not invested in what you decide to do at the end of the day, keep buying or don't or whatever suits your fancy... I can just feel this move tainting Nvidia and their products with an inherent 'ewww' reaction on my part which very strongly disentivises ever buying their shit, and I feel like it's generally good if people are honest about how they feel about phenomena in general, that's how shared sentiments, zetgeist and 'common sense' is created u know
