I am all for space VP

Yes*

*besides a handful of key figures, who was actually involved in the business plot is entirely a he said/she said situation. Some theories implicate a wide range of sitting congressmen, some keep it mostly limited to the businessmen themselves, and there's some everywhere in between.

Personally, I think the idea that it was close to happening is way overblown.

Guys I'm starting to think this Lewis Hamilton guy might be a good driver

Not that it makes it ok, but I'd bet a large amount of money the single biggest reason for this happening now is how much Nvidia has been squeezing their board partners. It's why we lost EVGA.

This relies on the assumption that everyone else, or at least a significant portion, in the office managed to do it.

I'm not talking about whether or not they're actually physically capable of it, of course they are. Im talking about how people immediately shut down and pretend they can't follow simple directions the second something relates to a compute.

You wildly overestimate the average person's willingness to do that.

Yknow I almost majored in IT/anything in that realm. Real glad I didn't right now. And most other times, but especially right now.

Silicon Valley is fundamentally the same as it's always been, it's just a bigger scale

Maybe it's just because I'm older and more jaded, but that really feels like the last truly good era for GPUs.

Those 10 series cards had a ton of staying power, and the 480/580 were such damn good value cards.

I'd also like to make a point that it seems a lot of people with AWD in my area miss.

If the road is solid ice, not snow, AWD isn't going to help you much at all.
