Little Bobby Tables nods approvingly.

Finally, a chance to cash in on my bored lemmings.

Just Peertube. I’ve been orphaned from my Mastodon instance and I don’t think I’m going to sign up for another one.

It’s been pretty lackluster so far. Embedded(includes FPGA) is one of AMD’s lowest performing divisions, along with gaming. They’ve used Xilinx circuitry in Ryzen AI CPUs (XDNA), but those have been slow to catch on.

There’s a lot of copium in the AMD_Stock sub about how Lisa is playing the long game and Xilinx will pay off over time, but for now, it’s a drag on revenue, operating margins and return on equity.

We paid $40B+ for a company that brought in less than 1.5B last year. - AMD bagholder, avg price $140😐

My pet peeve is people downvoting in communities they aren’t subscribed to about posts they aren’t interested in. They just sort by new, and when they see something they don’t like, they smash that downvote button without even looking at the post or contents.

Part of it is because we all have unlimited votes; people vote without thinking. It would be different if everyone had a finite number of votes to use. And you get awarded a few votes for making a comment or post. Maybe award extra votes for commenting in small communities.

This would serve 2 purposes. 1.) People would use their votes a lot more thoughtfully. 2.) It would encourage people to comment and post more.

The downside is that someone could set up a bot to spam posts and comments into a dead community just to rack up votes.

Stuff like this is why I don’t get an Xbox account.

Probably obscure if you’re under 50.

Let’s face it, Nvidia doesn’t care if you buy a gaming card or not right now. You can complain, but they can’t hear you over their money counting machines.

Nvidia is only selling enough gaming cards to keep their market share from falling too low. All the rest of their silicon is allocated towards data center.

My Mastodon instance disappeared a few weeks ago, so I’m getting a kick out of this post.

I’m not good at describing things, but I’ll give it a try. Thanks

A set of scripts that download Chaturbate videos, also keep track of what’s currently downloading, give a history of what’s been downloaded, and automate recompressing to HEVC.

I’m workshopping ideas for a new GUI for it, but don’t know where it’s safe to ask NSFW programming questions.

Hopefully they release it. I miss the old days of both companies releasing tech demos.

As impressive as their “Ryzen moment” was, AMD still hasn’t gotten 50% of the market after half a decade.

As much as I love AMD, they will follow Nvidia because they’re a follower. They unlaunched the 9070 at CES because they were unsure about Nvidia’s pricing. They changed their naming scheme to match Nvidia.

They changed their laptop naming scheme to match Intel. They pushed their earnings release date back so they could report after Intel (Intel pushed their own back the previous quarter).

You see, sometimes people say, “Why are you always trailing?” Well, we’re trailing because we’re following the [Total Available Market] of where the market is, and we’re letting them create some of this market because they are the only ones that really can when you have the kind of position that they have in the industry. We have to time it.
We either have to give you less, somewhere else — so, compromises — or we’d have to raise the price points, which is something they are already doing. So why have two people do exactly the same thing, trying to build these leadership products out there? - Frank Azor, chief architect of gaming solutions and gaming marketing at AMD source

AMD is content with being a second source supplier to Nvidia and Intel. After years of losses and near bankruptcy, AMD has finally figured out how to make a profit while being in second place. They’re in their comfort zone, and there’s no incentive for them to step out of it.

Beautiful response.

I remember those days, playing games with DOS4GW or whatever it was called. Man, I don’t miss that.

Yeah, but this happens with every version. Windows 7 still had a big market share up until MSFT cut off support. Users are going to bitch and complain and talk about switching to Linux, but eventually just install the next Windows version.

Unfortunately, a certain government(all three branches) could make things very difficult for AMD if they don’t play ball.
