[–] Shardikprime 3 points 1 day ago

Based

And free market pilled

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Is NVIDIA praying on the shitter?

[–] marcos 76 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I have to say it...

X is not a valid name for anything, and will never fit grammatically as a proper name. It doesn't matter how long somebody insists on using it.

[–] TempermentalAnomaly 1 points 21 hours ago

Then explain "X, a Jesus". He did some cool miracles and shit.

[–] captainlezbian 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah that's why it's a common variable name and it's partly because its a common variable name

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

it took til this comment to make me realize it wasn't "NVIDIA X" like that was a product

[–] nandeEbisu 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's a valid name for the chemical accidentally used by Prof Utonium to create the powerpuff girls.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's "Chemical X" which is fine.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 23 hours ago

It was originally a can of whoopass

So. That’s what chemical x is.

Just for the context, they lost 16% yesterday, which is one day after the prayer, which tells you about the efficacy of those

[–] Tillman 2 points 1 day ago

It’s a joke tweet making fun of the Intel CEO fwiw.

[–] TseseJuer 9 points 1 day ago

this is not a prayer. it's copy/paste of a verse

[–] imouto 1 points 1 day ago

Thoughts and prayers I guess

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

Wdym? It stopped it from dropping further

[–] [email protected] 154 points 2 days ago

It may be obvious to some, but this is a fake tweet and the only post today is some early bird pricing for a conference: https://xcancel.com/nvidia/with_replies

Other than the Nvidia stock price, the joke is that the contents of the tweet were something the Intel CEO did tweet after a similar stock plunge! https://xcancel.com/PGelsinger/status/1820129317122080977?lang=en

[–] Sam_Bass 1 points 1 day ago

And have not a whit of concern for that thornbush directly in front of you

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Today we mourn, tomorrow we moon. Buy the dip at 11:59 PM.

[–] NikkiDimes 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And then Trump implements tariffs on Taiwan and it craters again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

No way, tarriff only for west taiwan.

They're only one step away, people, and I'm not even sure about the 🚫 on red scanning visual sensors.

Not all Cylons have the scanner. Some are sexy:

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot 3 points 1 day ago

He probably still has the spine scanner, we just never saw it because the BSG producers are cowards.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

i have no idea what cyclon or scanner is, but man sure is dope

[–] wreckedcarzz 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

A scanner is a machine that creates a digital version of a physical object, most commonly a piece of paper. But that's not important right now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

i know what paper scanners are, but yes, my question may imply that i want to know what a scanner is in general

[–] TseseJuer 3 points 1 day ago

that would be a document scanner

[–] Zoomboingding 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

In Battlestar Galactica, humanity has fled earth after a hostile takeover by AI. On their last remaining ark fleeing to a habitable planet are Cylons, AI disguised as humans, some not even aware they ARE cylons. Fantastic show.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

They should have stuck with the fan theory that Cylonism could spread like an STD rather than... Whatever the ending was.

[–] Zoomboingding 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah another contender of 'fantastic show that produces an absurd ending that kind of ruins it'. But it was a wild ride the whole time, and I enjoyed it.

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah. What was the deal with those flying motorcycles anyway?

[–] jpreston2005 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

finally got around to finishing that, it was pretty good, my only beef was

spoilerwhatever the hell Starbuck was after she came back? Also, they introduced the concept of cylons 'casting' visions, but evidently that wasn't what Gaius was experiencing? then what was it? Seemed like they were pushing the idea of christianity in a freaking science fiction show, and it completely turned me off the last season.

[–] Zoomboingding 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Better than the hyper-mormon ending to Ender's Game~

[–] DogWater 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait did I miss something I read that like 10 years ago...

Also, I used to think the message board propaganda thing that the siblings did that radicalized more than half of the voters was far fetched and a little corny. Turns out that was the most realistic part.

[–] Zoomboingding 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean books 3 (Xenocide) and 4 (Children of the Mind), as well as his The Memory of Earth series.

[–] DogWater 2 points 1 day ago

Oh I only read the 1st book

[–] Wogi 3 points 2 days ago

So say we all. Rawr

It’s fake, and a joke, but based on a real tweet the Intel CEO made when their stock crashed too.

Nobody tell Elon Musk about ComStar because he'll use stuff like this to Kickstart Word of Blake

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wobbies are bad news, people. Everyone gets nuked or murdered by cyborgs.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Can we at least get cool mechs? Or will reality continue being this shitty dystopia with nearly all of the bad and none of the cool?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nvidia is just describing the type of processing that GPUs do.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Oh are they starting to introduce machine spirits and how to appease them with the proper litany?

[–] 200ok 4 points 2 days ago

Get in line, Nvidia
