Gamers Nexus's 3-hour GPU smuggling documentary is finally back up after being fraudulently DMCA'd by Bloomberg. Go give them a watch to try to make up for the lost traction!

This was legitimately fascinating. It’s crazy that Bloomberg reported on the same issue and didn’t find anything. Their reporters are terrible at their jobs or were prevented from doing them properly. Either way Bloomberg looks inept or corrupt.

It’s not that surprising that an outlet that makes its entire living on a certain segment of the economy would do a better job in that segment than generalist journalists.
If you’ve ever seen a news article about something you have real world expertise in, you know what I mean. Every time this happens to me I’m like “but they’re giving it such a surface treatment, missing the real point, and getting lots of little things wrong.”
Then I turn to the next article and read it like it’s gospel. It’s a cognitive dissonance I don’t know how to deal with except by becoming an expert in everything, which is impossible.
- I hate to bring up AI, but this is exactly what I keep trying to explain to people - when you ask any of these bots questions about things you're an expert in, you see all the flaws. The trouble is people tend not to ask questions about things they already know...
- That dissonance has a name! Gell-Mann amnesia. You aren't alone.
Corrupt.
Why not both?

I've had it on loop (on a muted tab) for the past 2 days.

I never even thought about data smuggling. China isn't allowed to buy Nvidia GPUs? Ok then China will have someone maintain the Nvidia servers in another country and remote into it to run their AI models.

It was up in Odysee all this time.

Norway, last week: Completely scammed: Thieves made off with "AI chips" worth several million kroner (googa translade)

Could only watch the first 10-15 mins, they've definitely upped the production value. I reckon I'll have to buy some merch from them to support them because this is good shit and want to see more.

I'll shill for them - if you play DND, the dice set is sick. Nice wooden case too (but the fit is a little jank, the lids don't sit flush). Still, it's an eye pleaser.
- I don't play dnd but I love cards and dice. I haven't checked out their merch but I'd love to support them. I'll check out the dice!
- This is exactly my experience with their dice sets. I got the transister dice, but I think the cat dice use the same box.

Hell yeah! Make sure to download it for preservation reasons as well.

4:30 in and I'm hooked. Gotta save it for later.
