Reminder: there are no video outputs on these chatbot data center processors driving up the prices of graphics cards.

So they can't even sell as used GPUs to crash the consumer GPU price market when the AI bubble pops.

This is a reminder that businesses aren't "money focused calculation machines that optimize for the maximum possible profit." They don't worry about every little dollar, they just print money and use it to control you.

Raising prices for you is the goal, not a byproduct of some other smarter plan.

Some people don't need the rest of this post, and it's very long, so I'll put it in a comment.

That is, in fact, how "dogecoin" is pronounced (doj coin). Here's one of the two creators of dogecoin saying as much (and why!): https://youtu.be/kVDcOI0-gdQ

    I stopped taking the creators opinions on doggie coin seriously when they started calling it doj coin

    Btw, notice that the Monero community is way more active than Ethereum or doggie coin in decentralized platforms like piefed/Lemmy or nostr

    Okay, but, did you actually watch the video? It's based on Homestar Runner and how they intentionally mispronounced something - the mispronunciation is entirely intentional.

    I don't remember the meme from anything to do with homestar runner, what I remember before doggie coin was pictures of dogs (mainly Shiba Inu) with horribly misspelled uplifting messages written in colorful comic sans

    Why would it be pronounced doggie if it's named doge?

    Masterful trolling in this entire thread unless you're being serious.

    So you call the original meme dog-e too? That doesn't roll off the tongue nearly as nicely as doge does

    The original meme does seem to be a misspelling of doggie, not a use of the old English term pronounced "doj"

    I don't see why anyone would call it "doj"

    It's misspelled on purpose so you'd read it differently lol

    Do you have a diagnosis yet, or are you still rolling with undiagnosed 'tism?

    Weak gaslighting attempt

    Misspelling doggie as doge doesn't change the pronunciation to "doj"

    There would either be no change at all or a change to something more like "dowg" because it's understood that the word is still supposed to be based on "dog." There's no reason you'd lose the G sound from "dog" here

    Learn how spelling and pronunciation work

    And if you want to gaslight me, I'm generally just not very susceptible, but I at least take people more seriously on nostr because there are no bans there. Would make more sense to try there

    Literally nobody pronounces "doge" as "doggie" or "dog". Everyone I know pronounces it as "doge".

    It's an intentional misspelling, you're supposed to pronounce it wrong (compared to "dog") intentionally.

    So again, that would be something like "dowg" or "doggeh" instead of "doggie"

    Not "doj"

    I never heard anyone read it as "doj" until about when Elon Musk started pushing that pronunciation, which was based on an old English word for a feudal lord or something, not how people automatically read that spelling

    I feel like you're just be wasting my time on purpose, why would anyone actually read it like that? You're probably trolling
