So far the evidence seems to indicate that they're still using as many high-level NVidia chips as they can get.
And what would be the evidence for that?
NVIDA disclosing how much they export to China? I do not think so.

Seems you are French? One of my best friends used to be on earthlink.net - left unfortunately as they could not tackle the spam problem.

So, you are stupid.
Someone points out you are stupid.
Instead of being thankful, you call him a dick.

Okay, next time, you say something stupid, I do not point out to you that you are stupid.
Up to you to figure it out your self, hopefully I remember your name.

as though that were anything like the primary argument you were making.
You did not make an argument. So, why would I not stick to my arguments?

Fact is: your mind learns with mind tricks.
The simplest trick is to imagine the picture of the word or idea you want to write.
And then: write it.
Typing is not writing.

The fastest typists type about 150 characters per minute. (I did not check what current world record is).
And, ask them 30 seconds later what they did type: they know nothing about it.

The human mind works best by:
- thinking (what is the part I might forget and have to make a trick about to memorize it better?)
- finding a solution
- hand writing it, as it means: replay the solution into words and thoughts and finally "painting" the words/letters
- it strengthens the neuronal wiring of your brain about: the concept, the meaning, muscle memory to write it

If you think, I am a dick, because I point out you are an uneducated illiterate stupid moron, then that is your problem.

I guess all your school teachers and teachtresses where dicks, too.

Poor teachtresses.

It is kind of irritating that, English speaking Christians call it "good fearing".

How many mistranslations from one language to the other and misinterpretations of original meaning do you need to end up with "good fearing" ... ?

And how plausible/compatible is the fundamental teaching of Jesus or Mohamed, that any human would be part of a religion where he "has to fear god"?

So, god is the same as Satan or Iblis or Shaitan?

You have to fear both of them?

Religion is never a good reason for anything,
Depends on the religion.
And depends on the reason.

There is nothing wrong to go to any farking temple, for any farking religion, for any farking reason: and pray.
Or meditate.

Sure, praying that your spouse not only survives the war, but kills a gazilion of enemies: might be wrong.

Because praying for the kills "feels" wrong.

I am not a religious person. But I go to temples. Because of the art work and an underrated English word: tranquility.

No idea what your point is: if you have two X chromosomes, as in XX, you are a woman.
If you have a XY chromosomes but lost your penis by an accident, and for some odd reason take the wrong hormones and grow boobs: you are a man.

Males have an unfair advantage in women competitions: because they never loose the power and speed bonus they are born with.

So, if you do the sport for fun, no one would care if a fake woman is in a women's competition. But if it is a martial art and a fake woman hammers a real woman to pulp, and even wins a money price: it is a concern.

Perhaps not for you. But for people who care.

Well, in a perfect world: all or none! Depending on your ideology.
But the real world is a grey area.
My unhappy assumption is: you support the wrong ones.
My sad assumption is: you do not even know it.

My fear is: you know it, and do it intentionally.

Unfortunately: I do not know who the wrong ones are and who the right ones are. So I can not help you.

Oh by the way only last month Trump proposed a rule change that would force federally funded science to go through a senior political appointee review process instead of a peer review process as part of publishing.
Seems he is not utterly stupid. It is somehow similar to China ... or so they claim.

- Once at your hotel, download your data from the cloud

I have no data in the cloud. Sure, I have stuff on github, if you want to call that "cloud".
And if I had - like on a Chrome Book, or a PowerBook - in a third world country like USA, the download in a hotel: would take weeks ... and probably I would get charged extra.

It is hardly surprising if you open a newspaper from time to time.
Yeah, but I actually do not really want to open newspapers anymore. Ignorance is a bliss ... took me a few decades to grasp and comprehend it.
