So you consider it a social plus to bring fast food to the masses? Despite the fact that there is a proven correlation between fast food and obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes?
The benefit to society is that the fast food industry has a substantial impact on the economy, generating trillions, both directly and indirectly, by providing jobs, significant revenue and due to the negative effects on health by providing health care jobs and significant revenue generation.
If you think about it the fast food industry and the tobacco industry only exist to generate cash for participants and promote the growth and sustainability of the health care industry that has grown to deal with the resulting health problems.
It's actually funny, here you support an industry whose sole purpose is generate as much cash as it can, to the detriment of society yet you condemn NVIDIA for embracing a policy that not only helps insulate NVIDIA against unnecessary support claims resulting from the incorrect usage of their products, not only helps to ensure a robust revenue stream for NVIDIA but also helps gamers so that they don't face a similar scenario as existed when crypto-miners started buying up certain gaming cards to use in mining rigs thereby lowering the supply available for gamers (the intended use case of the cards) and raising the prices.
If data centers are allowed to ignore best practices standards and start deploying gaming cards instead of pro cards with ECC VRAM, like they should be doing, they cause the supply of gaming cards to dry up and prices to skyrocket and then people like you will be bitching that NVIDIA isn't doing anything for the gamers.
