Fuck you and your stupid leather jackets, Jensen. Nvidia is permanently on my no-buy list after your market-abusing behavior.

The market abuse is just the latest bullshit from Nvidia. Wait till you learn about their proprietary software they pay games to use so that they look better compared to AMD when in reality they’re overpriced bullshit.
Cmon gamers, you love hairworks, physX, and gsync. Stock up on Cuda cores today!

I genuinly hate NV as a company and their propriatary software, but I can say that the software they provide is decent/good. Like… good cards and software, terrible company and philosophy/moral

Where’s the jpeg of the guy drying his tears with dollar bills elwhen you need it?

I appreciate TH not parroting Huang’s nonsense in their headlines. He’s clearly just trying to get attention by saying outlandish things

I’ve heard the lizard pattern is EXTREMELY complicated. Definitely a good value at that pricepoint.

He’s not eating. He’s spending all his per diem on jackets.
XeroxCool@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I think he’s full of shit. One day, he’s at a post-lunch meeting, cranky as shit, because he spent all his lunch money on clothes. A few days later he rails us for scheduling a meeting during lunch, mad as hell, because he’s hungry. Dude nearly dies choking on a sleeve hotdog. I’m kinda thinking he’s actually just against meetings in general with this lunch inconsistency

FTA:
Tom Ford’s Tejus lizard-embossed leather jacket from the Tom Ford SS2023 menswear collection, based on the collar, zippers, and cuffs (see detailed pictures below). It’s not lizard or crocodile skin as some people might have suspected — most exotic skins are banned in California — but is, in fact, just embossed calf leather. Still, it doesn’t come cheap: it retails for a cool $8,990 (or just over ten shares of Nvidia stock).

Nvidia can kick rocks.

The worst thing about this is that it’s an embossed leather jacket, not even real lizard. $10,000 for a fake lizard pattern on a typical calfskin jacket. Tom Ford is a real rip off brand.
(I’ll note that I doubt lizard hides are actually large enough for a leather jacket, though.)

I guess he cut his avocado toast.

He has someone to do that for him.

I can already see them upselling a new generation of consumers GPUs. Costing twice as much but made for AI and gaming. You heard it here first. 5000 series will have a $5000 GPU.
filister@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I guess NVIDIA doesn’t really care about its gaming division, and it is not like Intel or AMD are giving them any hard time either, mostly AMD is playing ball while Intel is struggling to catch up with them.

The origin story.
mrfriki@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Wonder if he will be able to afford a 5090 GPU by selling that jacket or would need to pony up some extra.
BaardFigur@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Why did they put his last name first? That’s like saying Carrey Jim
GreatRam@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Jensen is his first name
BaardFigur@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Then it makes more sense. Jensen is one of the most common surnames in Norway. It means son of Jens.
ConstantPain@lemmy.world 9 months ago
That’s how names work in some asian countries. Family name takes precedence.
BaardFigur@lemmy.world 9 months ago
But Jensen is a scandinavian surname.

He’s not some big tech CEO. He wears the common man’s clothes. He understands that people won’t pay more than 1/2 of the price of their jacket for a GPU.

ohh emm gee he’s just like me! for real!
