  1. I'll wait for a gog release
  2. Tru facts ☝
  3. Remember back when a new graphics card was about getting better quality graphics? Pepperidge farm remembers So goddamn tired of the upscaling bull****. It's smeary, it artifacts and quite frankly should be considered false advertising. I didn't get a better display to run **** in upscaled 1080p The VRAM on the news cards coming is probably going to shorten the lifespan on those cards aswell. I should've bought a goddamn 7900xtx...
  4. If it only were scummy influencers and not legit content creators aswell getting cought up in **** like this
  5. The difference is that the Uighurs have no recourse, indiginous people in the west do, because we are democratic nations and we are (at times) trying to better ourselves and right our past mistakes. Even the US have been fixing some things the past years, surprisingly, such as bail reforms. Movements such as Black Lives Matters would have been all incarcerated in China and killed. Atleast if things would've rolled that way, nvidias prices would've made some sense. I wasn't only refering to sending out spies, I'm talking about spying on the general population and invasion of privacy.
  6. From what I can tell from Swedish court hearings, it's not only based on their chips, but also on the fact that China is a hostile nation. Having them build up even parts of a 5G network when there is a good chance that they would be literal enemies would be a security concern per definition, and would be a disruption of services that no nation would want to have. Huawei is subject to CCPs intelligence services laws. As for wether or not China is hostile? I don't know what goes on in your guys countries, but almost every year here in Sweden we've had Chinese spies been arrested for spying against Swedish companies. That our western governments are spying on us is indisputable, but atleast we can use democratic processes in the EU and for a few more weeks the US, to curtail or even stop those things. The Uighur situation is pretty well known, I'm surprised it has flown past you completely. The mistreatment of indiginous people in western countries historically and today, doesn't mean we can't **** on the CCP for doing those things actively in the present. Me and others have continually criticized governments and companies for decades for doing this kind of business, it's not a new thing. China isn't the leader in computer sciences, and while computing would've been more expensive I don't think it would have been much less fast at this stage. And that the economic gaps we have today beeing smaller is a huge thing, it is not a good thing anywhere or at any time.
  7. Effectively they can do business asmuch as Huawei can. Please tell me that you don't consider what China is doing to the Uighur population (With aid from Huawei btw) fair or in line with modern values? Slavery, forced sterilization? As for the validity, I'm not basing this on only US security actions, but also from what others like my own government and independent journalists has said, there are more countries than the US that stopped them from doing business. While I know that the western designed electronics are just as bad with their spyware, but for now most of our governments arent the CCP. Just to be clear, I do think that the west should have stamped down hard on companies moving stuff to china ages ago, even more so since they ramped up their militarism and dictatorial leanings. Not only for cars and tech but also clothing and such. **** child labour.
  8. They literally can't do business because their IP has been stolen and is being used by Chinese companies. One is preventing doing business over valid security concerns, the other is stealing and blackmail to stop them from doing business for profit. No, mr Sarex, I expect them to die.
  9. The article you linked explicitly stated that Huawei could do any other business in the US, just not with government departments, the other is literally patent infringements together with threats of fines if they try to take the chinese companies to court, actually preventing foreign companies from doing business there. These things are nowhere near equal Whataboutism is never an arguement for anything
  10. No, it's nowhere near equivalent. The US government forbids US deparments from using Huawei tech, that's hardly the same as having patent infringement be facilitated via CCP courts. I'm looking at it from the perspective of Drumph being a complete cook, surrounded by crooks and accelerationists. Just look at his comments about Canada.
  11. https://policy.trade.ec.europa.eu/enforcement-and-protection/dispute-settlement/wto-dispute-settlement/wto-disputes-cases-involving-eu/wtds611-china-enforcement-intellectual-property-rights_en Summary of the case Since August 2020, Chinese courts have been issuing decisions – known as “anti-suit injunctions” – to exert pressure on EU companies with high-tech patents and to prevent them from rightfully protecting their technologies. Chinese courts also use the threat of heavy fines to deter European companies from going to foreign courts. This has left European high-tech companies at a significant disadvantage when fighting for their rights. Chinese manufacturers request these anti-suit injunctions to benefit from cheaper or even free access to European technology. The European Union has filed on 18 February 2022 a dispute settlement case against China at the World Trade Organization (WTO) for restricting EU companies from going to a foreign court to protect and use their patents. As for Tiktok, China is an enemy of the wests interests and values, the owners of the company are Chinese and as such the company must have CCP members on their board, which gives them direct access to private individuals data and atleast in the EU getting your data deleted is through our privacy laws would be pointless. I doubt anyone seriously argues that Facebook and Google doesn't collect data, but alteast the US isn't an enemy nation, for a few more weeks atleast.
  12. No, it's really not, disregarding what some governments do for a minute, there are several instances where companies have tried to sue Chineese companies for copyright or patent infringement and have been stonewalled by the government. In the rest of the world, these things happen all the time.
