TechPowerUp, Reddit, Irresponsible Reporting, & Hilariously Bad Conspiracy Theories
13,941NVIDIA boxes are everywhere! So are AMD boxes! Could it be because the companies put products in them to ship, or something evil?!

This whole story is actually just sort of sad, and mostly for the outlets reporting on it at the level of a Hollywood tabloid. It's low-brow, low-quality reporting bereft of effort or investigation, and we find it disappointing that this is where the industry is trending. TechPowerUp published an apology and retraction following its actions, but has left the story up and GN still shows up in the Google search thumbnails. Separately, and unrelated to TechPowerUp, the whole thing shows that the hivemind rage engine is more hyperfocused on building strawmen than anything else, and the latest is made of cardboard boxes. It's a cardboard boxman argument, if you will, a classic!
