  • I’m curious. Economically speaking, what would happen if Nvidia pulled a “Steam” and had a “February sale” where some models of video card were discounted enough to lead to a massive spike in sales numbers? A big enough discount to generate a greater total net return on sales for the quarter despite the fact that they were sold at a lower profit margin per individual sale? Assuming limitations like “you must create an account with a residential shipping address that can receive no more than x cards at the discounted price per street address” or some such to limit scalping, would simply showing increased profits do them any good?

    Or is the problem due to a lack of product quantity?



  • These features are unwanted by many, keep increasing, and the methods used to turn each individual piece off keep changing, growing, and moving, and that’s JUST on the user level.

    It’s at least an order of magnitude worse to have to pull the unwanted stuff back out if you’re forking Firefox.

    Mozilla could make this straightforward and easy.

    They are specifically NOT doing that ON PURPOSE.

    Why do you suppose that is?
