Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

It would be hilarious to see these companies going balls deep into AI only to suffer massive losses and try to push those losses onto others

if it weren't so sad.

They always do. Get bailed out by the government using taxpayers money. If it was truly capitalism they would be left to rot by the side of the road.

Privatize the profits, socialize the losses.

When nVidias bet on AI collapses eventually, it will be catastrophic cascade of events, worse than the Great Depression.

[–] finitebanjo@piefed.world 5 points 23 hours ago

I think the nVidia bubble is pretty inconsequential since they don't actually produce anything which people rely on to live a normal life.

If we do degrade that far it will be because of Republicans reigniting WWII fascism.

It'll be as cathartic as it'll be catastrophic. I'm personally looking forward to the devastation this folly will bring, if only to see PC parts makers come back to the consumer market with hat in hand.

[–] MurrayL@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Except there won’t be much of a consumer market to come back to, due to the aforementioned economic devastation.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 day ago

And they want us all in the cloud so they can control and see it all. Can’t do that if you can keep your data on the pc in your basement.
