U.S. intelligence sources suggest that Nvidia chief Jensen Huang was targeted by Chinese intelligence in a 'honeypot' operation involving Megaspeed executive Alice Huang.

    This is, 100%, without a doubt, just a way for him to avoid legal liability for doing things of his own free will. He wasn’t complicit in smuggling! He was taken advantage of by that irresistible Chinese succubus! It’s her fault!

    Now, I don’t really care. I think it’s great that he’s bypassing US sanctions. Altho I would prefer China have its own domestic chip manufacturing and not buy from companies like this, but until that is fully developed they need to get by somehow. But yeah this is the most obvious scapegoating I’ve ever seen.

    In fact, I’d like NOBODY to buy from companies like this. NVIDIA should crash and fucking burn.

      Yeah a real honey pot would have been steeling the next gen chip plans so the Chinese could move ahead and fab their own stuff.

    Ah yes, because NVIDIA’s Huang famously never closed his eyes to smuggling without a blowjob. He also never lobbied US gov’t to let him sell chips to China.

    What’s this bullshit trying to accomplish, launder Jensen’s image as a US patriot or something? Or is this insurance against being dragged in court by the democrats for “睜一隻眼閉一隻眼“ (“Open One Eye, Close One Eye”)?

        Everything east of Poland is a type of Russia, like everything south of the US border is a type of Mexico

          Slovenia is south west of Poland. I’m starting to doubt your expertise.

          And Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania might beg to disagree, not to mention Ukraine.

            He goofed with Slovenia’s location, but no, that last part is the joke. Hence Mexico.

            As an example, Bethesda (last I checked) only provided Russian versions of Fallout: New Vegas to Poland and other Slavic countries in the general area. It’s not consisent, some could change language and just had different forums/mods, while others claimed there was only Russian, but you get the idea. Apparently other games like Dishonored had that issue too, but that example stuck to me.

            I wrote Germany, thought “ehh that’s too much”, and changed to what in my head is the next one on the right.

            I’m not a smart man.

            Are we happy with everything west of Berlin? Is this just the Yalta conference again

    IMO, this is probably a lie manufactured by the Trump Regime. Trump just wants to steal Jensen’s fortune, and to punish a “china man” for daring to do well in life.
