Interesting community.

They did allow Intel to leverage their services even though Intel has it’s own foundry servicing external clients.

We definitely need far more competition in the semiconductor space. We are in an oligopoly-like position across many (most?) semiconductor segments and GPUs are completely dominated by Nvidia.

I always wondered why the Microwave [Solar] Power Planet from Simcity 2000/3000 never made an appearance in the sequels or other city builders. This might actually change in the coming years.

“It is early days for the next-generation AI PCs or Copilot+ PCs, and adoption rates are still trailing initial projections,” said Pygott.

“Vendors are pushing AI PCs with a premium. Businesses want to move to AI PCs but are waiting for an AI platform that will provide the most future-proofing. CoPilot+ PCs and Recall are further confusing the matter,” Gartner research director Ranjit Atwal told us in November.

“Something will have to give in 2025, and I think it’s AI pricing.”

At least there may be some benefit from all this “AI PC” marketing.

I remember reading about this use cae as child in the mid 90s.

Don’t think we are much closer to actually executing on it than when I first heard about it.

How is it possible to brute force attack a MS 365 service?

Wouldn’t the service automatically lockout after a few incorrect attempts?

Perhaps trying to convince the incoming administration that it would be worth helping Taiwan militarily.

I see. I would also label such high level executives oligarchs. I guess it’s a matter interpretation of the term.

Curious why you think Nvidia’s leader, Jensen Huang, would not be considered an oligarch?

He clearly wants to leverage corruption to promote self-enrichment. It’s framed in different terms and I recognize many in the US would disagree, but that’s why I got out of his statements.

I wouldn’t necessarily position them as capitalist. They are capitalists of course, but the term oligarch seems more appropriate, at least from a non-US perspective.

Nvidia expects to sell 3 million units thought September 2025 and 16 million units between October 2025 and September 2026.

I am assuming this for all their WoA devices on this Nvidia SoC (not just Lenovo).

Considering around ~260 million PCs (laptops and desktops, not including DIY desktops) were shipped in 2024, that’s a relatively modest target of annual 6% unit shipment share.

Seems somewhat reasonable considering this is Nvidia we are talking about. It will be interesting to the velocity at which they will convert their shipments into the channel into sales.

This seems to be a reaction to the coming of a new US administration even if it is positioned in more generic commercial terms.

I can’t imagine the Taiwanese government willingly wanting to lose what the article refers to as their “Silicon Shield”.

Nvidia has fired back at the US government in a statement of its own, claiming that “global progress is now in jeopardy.”

“In its last days in office, the Biden Administration seeks to undermine America’s leadership with a 200+ page regulatory morass, drafted in secret and without proper legislative review,” the company’s press release reads. “[B]y attempting to rig market outcomes and stifle competition — the lifeblood of innovation — the Biden Administration’s new rule threatens to squander America’s hard-won technological advantage.”

I am not from the US, are sanctions/duties part of the legislative review process? I remember have to work with import duties around hardware appliances during Trump’s 1st term. I don’t remember this being part of a legislative package, but I could be wrong. Honestly the source was the least of concerns, impact analysis on the other hand…

People stick x90 cards into SFF cases? Seems almost counterproductive.

Not my topic of interest, but only happy to see more niche communities pop up.

Good luck!

Yeah, I am done with commercial social networks. Perhaps this a bit presumptuous of me, but I think in the (distant? hopefully not too distant?) future, current social networks will be seen as excess of the early information age.

I don’t recruit people to the fediverse, but I’ve described it in abstract terms (and realistic terms - it’s mostly tech nerds) to some close friends/family members and they actually agreed that the concept made a lot of sense.

The ones who listen to EDM were even like “wow, this is actually like an underground non-commercial social network that goes against the grain and focuses on what matters”. That being said, for an underground community/movement, the EDM scene is super tied into mainstream social media.

EDM subs on lemmy are generally in a pretty poor state (progressive / trance / D&B). I occasionally contribute via another account, but it feels like there just isn’t a critical mass yet.

I will join !dubstep@lemmy.dbzer0.com and occasionally post too.

Too little too late IMO. Although functionally multi-class structure (A/B/C) and Universal Verified End User/National Verified End User systems do make sense.

I say this as someone who is not a citizen of the US (Ukraine falls under class B), but also who is not fond of the CCP.

Read this article earlier, it wasn’t very clear to me what the focus was of this illicit gen AI content.

Very sneaky approach I have to say.
