    Nvidia and their Chinese customers had to see this coming. Wonder if they’ll also be fined for trying to circumvent the export ban?

      Well, since Nvidia has more money than god, the only definition of “fine” that applies to them is “alright”.

        That’s an odd expression

        Both for there being no god so any amount of money is more and for Christians being banned from having wealth

          It’s a common expression, especially in the US South. And what gives you the idea that Christians are banned from having wealth?

              History? Have you looked at the wealth sequestered in churches?

                Yes, but they also ban Sodomy and have you seen priests?

                Or the bans on range weaponry but ma guns (predates gunpowder weapons)

                    Having priests raping children is not allowed but it happens

                    In 1139 the Pope banned crossbows (bows, slings, etc) because killing from a distance was against God

                    As for wealth

                    The collection plate is there to divide the town’s money up between everyone there so the poor can buy food for the week

                    Greed and Gluttony are both banned and tie into wealth

                    Some random nonsense for you https://www.epm.org/resources/2019/Dec/13/ten-ways-materialism-ruin/
