A government could also just seize the studio and do that, no need to give any more dollars to the house of Saud. In fact a government could do this for every studio and transfer it to be collectively owned and governed by the workers. For every business even, not just game studios! O:

"Three years after the program was introduced, we are seeing more communities depend on the virtual platform to keep their emergency departments open.

In a remarkable omission, this article on young people involved in Alberta separatism shouts out the podcast of two young women interviewed—but fails to mention what sort of programming they produce! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

At what point does the CBC take responsibility for airing fair right hooey? This guy is always crazy when they put him on the air, and yet they keep putting him on the air.

This means that the increased price of RAM and consumer electronics was a result of an artificial "supply chain crisis" created by Jensen Huang pushing NVIDIA's customers to take early delivery of GPUs. Jensen Huang is responsible for making life worse for everyone.
NVIDIA seems to be channel stuffing, forcing Amazon and other customers to take early delivery. The argument that these things are "scarce" when you don't even have anywhere to plug them into is nonsense...unless NVIDIA is saying you NEED to take them now, or else. GPUs are stacked in warehouses.
