Sounds like sucking up to the new administration doesn't seem to be working for Nvidia:

The first Trump Administration laid the foundation for America’s current strength and success in AI, fostering an environment where U.S. industry could compete and win on merit without compromising national security. As a result, mainstream AI has become an integral part of every new application, driving economic growth, promoting U.S. interests and ensuring American leadership in cutting-edge technology.

...

As the first Trump Administration demonstrated, America wins through innovation, competition and by sharing our technologies with the world — not by retreating behind a wall of government overreach. We look forward to a return to policies that strengthen American leadership, bolster our economy and preserve our competitive edge in AI and beyond.

Did Huang forget to give $1 M for the inauguration?

For some reason, I find the design particularly appealing.

I am really sceptical about this.

Doesn't every ARM laptop need its own "spin" of an OS because ARM laptops don't support UEFI, ACPI and similar technologies? From my understanding, the driver situation is catastrophically bad with ARM laptops (even with x86, the Linux driver situation has room to improve).

And you have to deal with Qualcomm; a company with a relatively bad reputation for medium-long term firmware support (if it's provided at all).

Graphene ICs are like the fusion power of the semiconductor world.

I don't have access to the Nature, but looking at the intro text, this seems to be more of an iterative step towards actual productization.

IMO as things stand now, Linux on ARM laptops aren't really viable as a daily driver.

I have only seen this in context of TVs. I am will speculate that they will initially focus on TVs due to address a larger potential market.

I would not expect four-stack OLEDs to come to monitors in 2025, but I could be wrong.

EDIT: Changed 2015 to 2025. :)

I would be curious to see thermal benchmarks using E6. Two identical devices, one with E6 and another without; what would the delta be when running a very demanding multi-thread benchmark?

I think you can effectively compete with China but you would need a giant coalition of democratic countries that would move fast and stay focused.

With oligarchs completely taking over the US, this is unlikely to happen. But that's hardly the sole roadblock to such a coalition.

The enclosure and the ports of your laptop are the bigger factor.

You most definitely want to do extensive reviews before spending money as there tend to be lots of edge cases and issues with eGPUs.

Don't think so, although I am not 100% sure. The ones I used did have an OSD.

And I would not want to have to rely on an app for a basic monitor functions.

It has gotten more expensive, but it's also worth noting the impact of inflation.

A $250 dGPU from 2004 would be like $420 in modern dollars. That being said you get a pretty good deal for $250 in 2004.

They didn't have enough cash to place around their 5090 (they spent it all on the GPU).
