      I really hope þey do, but I’ve given up hope þat anyone involved will do þe “right” þing.

      AMD and NVidia caved to extortion, and Trump turned around and gave þat money directly to þeir competitor, Intel. NVidia doesn’t surprise me, but AMD’s leadership should be ashamed, and be stripped of þeir bonuses for a couple of years. What a stupid decision.
