GeForce 2 Ultra Maximum PC - November 2000

[probablyasocialecologist]

It’s hard to talk about 21st-century economic history without discussing the “China shock”. That is the term often used to describe China’s entrance into the global market, a change that brought rich countries an abundance of cheap goods, but left entire industries and workforces mothballed. DeepSeek may provide a sequel. A little-known Chinese hedge fund has thrown a grenade into the world of artificial intelligence with a large language model that, in effect, matches the market leader, Sam Altman’s OpenAI, at a fraction of the cost. And while OpenAI treats its models’ workings as proprietary, DeepSeek’s R1 wears its technical innards on the outside, making it attractive for developers to use and build on. Things move faster in the AI age; terrifyingly so. Five of the biggest technology stocks geared to AI — chipmaker Nvidia and so-called hyperscalers Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft and Meta Platforms — collectively shed almost $750bn of market value before US markets opened on Monday. It could be particularly grim for Nvidia if it proves true that DeepSeek won without the use of its shiniest chips.

NVIDIA has fallen out of being the world’s most valuable company after losing $600 billion dollars in market capitalization today

This is the single greatest one-day value wipeout of any company in history, more than doubling the $279 billion market cap.

This comes after China released DeepSeek, an open source free AI app set to rival OpenAI / ChatGPT.

All happening under the Trump administration as confidence in America’s standing in the world falters.

The U.S. Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission will conduct antitrust investigations on Microsoft, OpenAI, and Nvidia regarding their roles in the AI industry, as reported by the New York Times.

The Justice Department will focus on Nvidia, while the FTC will investigate OpenAI and Microsoft, under a deal expected to conclude soon.

The agreement between regulators was made recently and is set to be finalized in the near future, according to sources familiar with the matter.

mutt's guide to using dsr on ts4, with pictures!!!

ok so, dsr is a thing available for nvidia gpus that allows you to take veeery high resolution screenshots of games without much trouble, like this

it's an alternative to srwe, as it plays nicer with a lot of reshade shaders and is just, generally more nice to use! let me teach you how to use it - full tutorial with pictures for every step under the cut (im sorry its too long without the cut)

step 1: right click your desktop and open the nvidia control panel

step 2: go here (adjust desktop size and position)

step 3: make sure your settings are set as follows! this is important

step 4: now, go here (change resolution)

step 5: under change resolution, click on this button (highlighted with a red square)

step 6: in the windows that appears, make sure that "enable resolutions not exposed by display" is ticked! this is very important! (again, highlighted in red - it should look like this)

step 7: now, click on "create custom resolution"

step 8: this is where you set your desired resolution, and where i get a bit rambly; so, in my opinion, there is ZERO reason to go above normal 4K for TS4, as it's generally not a really high-poly game and it has rather simple graphics. you can fuck around a lot here, but if you don't feel like it, here are my settings - this will give you 4K screenshots. NOTE: THE REFRESH RATE DOESN'T NEED TO BE 75! SET IT TO WHATEVER THE REFRESH RATE OF YOUR MONITOR IS!

step 9: now, click on test

step 10: let the thing load, and after it's done, a window like this should pop up.. but yknow, in your language. click on "yes" (or accept or ok!! idk mine's in russian; basically, the button highlighted here!)

step 11: click "ok" in the window that pops up! like this! afterwards, close the nvidia panel

step 12: open the sims 4 and go into game options, then into graphics

step 13: set your "display type" as "fullscreen", like this

step 14: under "resolution", select whatever resolution you setup earlier; in my case it's 4K, so if you used the same resolution, your settings should look like this

step 15: click on apply changes!

AND UR DONEE!! WAHOOIEE!! now, take your screenshot using reshade, and then go back into sims settings and set it back to what you usually play at, then apply changes!

every time you need to take an HD screenshot, simply open game settings and use your custom resolution! that's it, have fun :3

Help me getting Wayland to play nicely with my NVIDIA card, plz?

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong :(

Under Wayland my Monitor displays as Unknown-1 instead of HDMI-2 and I think Wayland doesn't even use my graphics card.

Installed Nvidia-dkms drivers, added

nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm

Good News From Israel

In the 19th Jan 25 edition of Israel’s good news, the highlights include:

Mother of three is a part-time PhD student and an IDF Command Center manager.

Israeli Professor boosts the immune system to slow the aging process.

Nine inspiring prize-winning young immigrants give hope for Israel’s future.

Four teams of Israelis are helping combat California’s wildfires.

Israeli technology could prevent future wildfires.

Nvidia is investing half a billion dollars in a new Israeli development center.

Israelis thought “outside the box” when stranded on a snowy mountain.

Two ancient structures unearthed from the Kingdom of Judah.

Read More: Good News from Israel

As we anxiously await the possible release of three Israeli female hostages, I was alerted to several articles in this week's newsletter featuring amazing Israeli women. 

The female Professor who discovered boosting the immune system slows aging. The two Israeli female members of the international team that identified a new blood group. And the female Israeli doctor leading the European project to reduce the risk of diabetes, obesity and heart disease.

Women in the IDF are prolific, comprising 50% of IDF doctors, crewing tanks, and operating an Air Force drone unit. Many others are in combat units or perform vital services in the "Special In Uniform" department.  And read about the mother of three children, studying for a PhD while managing an IDF Command Center.

So many Israeli startups succeed because of the women members of their leadership teams. In fact, women-led Israeli AI startups deliver a 35% higher return on investment than male-led ones. The Heads of Human Resources and Recruitment in Israeli companies most often are women. (Checkout the dozens of Israeli startups that showcased at CES in Las Vegas.) There is even an Israeli tech hub for Bedouin women. And Israel’s "Women Funding Women" program is the first of its kind to connect women entrepreneurs with top-tier women investors.

Among the nine young winners of Nefesh b'Nefesh's Maor (“light”) Youth Prize are the founders of Israeli support group "Big Sister, Little Sister". And read about the many Israeli women who won "Voices of Iron" advocacy awards.

Finally, we salute all the wives of IDF soldiers who have to worry, work and support their families while their husbands are at the front lines.

The photo (TY Sharon) was taken at the end of the recent Momentum Fellowship conference in Israel. Momentum is a transformative leadership development program designed to empower Jewish women with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to make significant community impact.
