China says Nvidia violated antitrust regulations

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2025-10-01 17:44:02

Trade tensions between China and the U.S. regarding semiconductors just got even more strained. On Monday, China’s State Administration for Market Regulation ruled that semiconductor giant Nvidia was in violation of the country’s antitrust regulations, as first reported by Bloomberg. The ruling was in reference to Nvidia’s 2020 acquisition of Mellanox Technologies, a computer networking supplier, for $7 billion.

Being Underweight Might Be Deadlier Than Being Overweight

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-01 21:20:38

If asked whether one would prefer to be too skinny or fat, chances are most people would reply that they’d rather be too skinny. Distorted standards of beauty and their propagation on social media are certainly to blame for this, in addition to the knowledge that being overweight typically brings along a host of health risks. A new study, however, suggests that being too thin can actually be deadlier. Researchers used health data to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and

Samsung S95F OLED TV ZDNET's key takeaways The Samsung S95F OLED TV delivers an excellent viewing and gaming experience thanks to its superb picture and sound quality, low latency, and the option to disable AI processing. However, this TV is a very expensive investment, especially at larger sizes, and its thin design makes it feel quite fragile.

How does air pollution impact your brain?

news.ycombinator.com Written By 2025-10-02 01:04:23

Image credit: Ionut Stefan We’ve known for some time that air pollution is bad for human health. However, the focus was mostly on the lungs, and to some extent, the heart. After all, airborne pollutants are inhaled through the lungs and can reach the heart through the bloodstream, so it’s not surprising these take the brunt of the damage. But somewhere along the way, it became somewhat mainstream to consider how air pollution might affects brains too. What I found surprising was the recency of
