I mean, it is a free product. This doesn't bother me too much. Eventually they have to make money to stay in business as much as I despise Nvidia.

It would be a completely different story if I was paying for it.

I agree that as a free product, the ads are less loathsome. But from a company that just posted a 265% increase in revenue, it’s not like they’re worried about keeping the lights on https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/21/nvidia-nvda-earnings-report-q4-2024.html

Nvidia is making plenty of money. This is about having power of their user's computing.

A free product you pay for when you buy your graphics card?

Edit: oooh, I completely mistook the products. nvm
