It features Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai’s round, pink, utterly charming […]

Nvidia just sold more AI chips than it’s ever sold before, blowing past its estimates in its Q3 2026 earnings. Not only did it pull in $57 billion in revenue – and roughly $4,000 of pure profit per second – it grew its data center business by $10 billion in a single quarter alone. It […]
