At the moment it feels like the proverb about gold rushs and shovels
Except the gold is actually poop and the shovels require burning several trees per dig
They were years ahead of the curve with AI hardware, and they’re well placed to benefit from the AI craze.
Regardless of whether a company’s AI product is useful, or profitable, they need lot of hardware to make it run.

Whatever makes RTX work is what accelerations a lot of AI tasks. I’d argue the 1080 is bordering on irrelevant if it wasn’t for the 8 gigs of ram to save it. The 2060 should be much faster despite for gaming being about in par.
I wish it were as easy to make money on stock prices going down as it is to make money on stock prices going up
Pretty sure the entire system is based around making the line go up regardless of everything else.
I can’t reliably predict when line go up, but I have a pretty good idea of when line go down. Let me make money on that lol
You could buy options
I’m not employed by Nvidia though? Unless I’m misunderstanding
Anyone can trade options. See https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/putoption.asp
This is very risky though, I wouldn’t recommend doing this without some training and research.

That goes back to my original point, “I wish it were as easy…”
And still no updated Shield TV. 😭

What’s missing in the shield? I have a gen 1 and it still plays anything I throw at it. High bitrate HDR 4k video etc.
I believe its missing h265 and av1 hardware support and while it probably has enough performance to handle those codecs in software, I wasn’t willing to drop more than 100 euros on a 5 year old device without hardware decoding for them
That’s untrue. I specifically bought it for h265 decoding. Which it does have in hardware. I play h265 content exclusively and never had an issue. Even 80~100mbps blue ray UHD rips. And because it has gigabit ethernet there’s never any buffering issues either from my NAS.
Ah, I guess I was only looking at AV1 support in that case. I only remembered it was missing something I wanted due to its age
I got most of my Plex library on h265 and there is no problem with my shield,
Nothing is missing - but mine’s 5 years old and I want to make sure it can be replaced before it finally dies.

Yeah, I was surprised there were still lots of people using the 2015 version. It’s a good sign so hopefully mine will be good for a long while still.
