This is why the ISS exists BTW. It was a jobs program for ex-soviet rocket scientists since by definition they're all weapons specialists who just happen to be launching satellites instead of nukes.

The whole fragile construct of ethical disclosure sits on people/companies aknowledging it, playing along and not intentionally fucking it up. It is a cherished grape of vine that demonstrates - healthy tendencies do exist in our societies, we can sometimes communicate with each other and pursue a common good in spite of our destructive urges. Refusing to give a symbolical prize incomparable to the cost they could save, AMD and others mishandle the thing they treat as a given while completely unprepared to the state where it's gone, just like a teenager thinking they'd top the game and lose virginity when/if zombie apocalypse happens.

🫩🤬😡

AMD also donated to the orange pedo, coz it’s good for business.

Care to provide a source, please? And does anyone know if Nvidia did so too? I'm planning to switch to AMD from Nvidia, but if they're both equally lack virtue… shrugs.

People often ignore the fact that the Silicon Valley Barons have swallowed their own sauce. Silicon Valley has an industry of sycophancy to uphold their narcicism. That means they can also suffer under narcicistic delusion.

Case in point: when Windows 8/10 was released, Microsoft - referred to as Microslop - fired all their QA teams because they believed automated QA testing was just as good. If you wonder why Windows has been so enshitified, there's the real reason. Now they have a refactoring project for Windows that uses SteamOS as a benchmark, because they know they've fucked up.

And of course, the same can be said for the mass firing of developers because they were going to be replaced with AI, only to be hired back to then babysit that AI.

Never forget that narcicists wear the jogging suit and drink deeply from the punch bowl, and they want us all to swallow it with them.
