lol "containt" what a typo

It can contain nanoplastics.

Oh don't worry. Someday everyone will try to switch to CNTs and derivatives, and those might shed too!

In the United States?

A laser pointer is hell on camera.

It isn't any different.

The stock market and derivatives can actually drive real economic activity. Gambling does not. Not really sure about forex, it's weird.

Umm

Sports book was illegal outside of Vegas and maybe Atlantic City for the longest time. It only recently became legal.

Actually things DID change: the addiction problems in BC got a lot worse.

Sports betting on its own isn't necessarily a grift. People making a bet against their coworkers between their favorite teams that are about to face off is just something fans do. Office pools etc. are perfectly normal, and there really isn't a middleman there.

The large sports book sites ARE middlemen and they do skim enough off the top where maybe they should be viewed with some skepticism. But the core of what people are doing - or are TRYING to do - doesn't necessarily fall under the umbrella of grift or scam.

Considering that Dad couldn't legally bet on sports book for most of the United States' history, it wouldn't be a big ask to go back to that. It really wouldn't.

Maybe someday, they'll invent better vices that can consume even MORE people! It's an ongoing struggle.

It won't be yours for long!

The sales breakdown for AMD is available in their quarterly reports, assuming you understand their product lineup:

https://www.amd.com/en/newsroo...

(Q3 numbers aren't out yet)

If you dig into the revenue statements per department, you'll see that their datacentre segment (which is EPYC CPUs, MI accelerators, and . . . pretty much that's it) is their greatest source of income. At least in the case of EPYC, the real revenue driver is Zen5/Turin which is their current cutting-edge server/workstation CPU. On desktop it gets a little bit fuzzier since they do still move some older Zen versions in some volume due to the much larger and more-diverse product lineup.

But, there's no denying how much of an influence their latest-and-greatest has on their revenue picture. That's not going to change for Zen6/MI400.

Yeah basically. You don't even have to scrap the parts, just push your worst-of-the-worst onto an Intel node (or whatever) and sell them at a ridiculously low price which is what you were going to do with the TSMC-based parts anyway.

AMD still produces some Zen2-era CPUs/SoCs, so stuff like that could be put on some Intel node as a tariff dodge. Instead of sending the volume to Samsung.

Meanwhile, the Samsung fab in AZ is not gonna be happy about this. Unless using a Samsung fab in AZ also helps AMD dodge tariffs?
