Your bias against Nvidia might at least have been disguised if you called them by their actual name. Instead, it is made clear you how you felt even before you arrived and commented.
There is no bias in making fun of a company name, besides I currently am Team Green and I did not say Ngreedia ( this time around!!), so look at the post follwing your reply to mine. Are you gonna try to chastise that person as well?

Your view on what others do with a name is arrogant, calling out others is political narcissism, censorship is for porn. Please re-read the first amendment since you are trying to step on my right to free speech. That being said, please F88K off. I'm not trying to be hostile, dont take it as such, I find this rather amusing.

That doesn't apply online on a Global site.

So my country of residence has the authority to do such things as imposing geoblocks between me and certain websites, yet it is not able to uphold my rights?

I'm not necessarily saying that you're incorrect. I'm pretty sure that when it comes to the internet, it's a free-for-all between people from different nations. So DeathtoGnomes isn't wrong, and neither are you, as weird as that sounds.

But we should probably get back to the main topic. I personally have no idea what NVIDIA was thinking when they showcased these "not for sale" products. To me, it just seems to add insult to injury. I've never cared much for tech halo products, and I couldn't care less for such products during a chip shortage.

Im sure some of them will eventually surface on Aliexpress. Nvidia will quietly backpedal and only do a limited batch of these cards for the Chinese market.

You and me both, that reply was gold! :roll:

It does seem to be a tone-deaf response to the market conditions. How about flooding it with the lower-end cards that a lot of buyers are waiting for, rather than a rare version of the rarest GPU.

Oh look shiny baubles for the intellectually challenged to keep them entertained.

In the current crisis how they could even have the temerity to do this sort of garbage is beyond belief.
