Still kicking myself I didn't get a 4090 back in early 23. I was close but ironically decided it was a lot of money.:(

Bespoke Government regulation isn't going to happen, end of. That said, I do wonder at what point general health and safety regulators start to take a look at some of the more... ahh... incendiary problems. Consumer products that are genuine fire hazards do tend to draw their eye.
