One it has failed to come up with by choice. It seems simple enough to de-regulate, but not regulate. I wonder why that is?

Because humans can't seem to agree on what "good" regulation.
I thought the 2080Ti was a total rip off. I didn't buy it. I did not feel inclined to demand coercive measures from the collective.
Nvidia wanted more money than I thought it was worth so they did not get my money.

Yes they can, regulations have been put in place for hundreds of years in a myriad of different areas, and again they seem to have no problem de-regulating when it suits the right people and institutions. There's simply no will to regulate against the excesses of the free market.
Sure history is full of other, more coercive, centrally-controlled systems. None of them have resulted in the prosperity produced by the free market you seem so unhappy with.
In fact, most other approaches have resulted in rather negative outcomes historically.

They don't need to be coercive to curb the worst excesses of the free market, it's no a choice between one extreme system or the other. As for prosperity at the moment, it's exponential prosperity for the very few, gradual long-term falling prosperity for the vast majority. So, as I said, the fault lies within the system that does not wish to regulate the worst excesses of the free market.
No, just itchin for the fun of it, just today received my '3090. G2' should be here soon, 'Alpha Flight Control ' next week, and monstertech supports in a month, just waiting on a 5900x. I like an open market when it suits me.
Just seen the 12GB 3060 (Ventus) for £999 elsewhere online; same site charges £470 for the (better) Gaming X trio 3060 Ti!!!!
You could even get a RTX 3080 for less than that - assuming they were in stock!!!
Oh my days, I need to sit down.

Nope only AIB cards so expect the prices to be high!!
Yes, including failure to regulate unsafe building work which resulted in deaths of people in Genfell Tower and the need to now waste billions of pounds putting right what could have been done properly in the first place

Correct, they can regulate and de-regulate whenever they feel like it, it just depends whose going to gain/lose (their lives in this case) by it. That's the single deciding factor, and Grenfell proves it.
