@blogdiva yep: they're not even buying RAM, just RAM futures, creating an artificial scarcity that drives up prices for their competition (ie. us, ordinary human beings).

@blogdiva siege warfare. It’s always the same. Laying siege and hoarding everything.

Will they manage to kill the PC market? Or will they manage to give birth to tens of thousands of small, local computer recycling, refurbishing, and building companies/centers?
All of it is going to collapse in on itself. It's just Theranos except instead of a couple billions of dollars it's a couple trillions of dollars.

@blogdiva Makes me glad I own around a half dozen computers of various types. I can probably live out my remaining years with at least one functional personal computer.
I hope sanity prevails sooner than that, and that the market isn't thoroughly gutted by greedy techbros.
-
@blogdiva Even HDD and GPU prices are going up now. At this rate, CPUs and possible even PSUs will start getting crazy expensive if the market doesn't course correct.
@disorderlyf @blogdiva this is the Point work hard and trees start subsidizing local production to ensure availability

@johnzajac @blogdiva that, and diversification of production. Things like RISC-V aren't just for nerds, it's the key to a resilient supply chain.
The computer market's getting fundamentally upended and old hardware won't be automatically obsolete anymore

@blogdiva yep, home server community was becoming way to refined for them to be comfortable. Someone with no technical knowledge could easily run a qnap server.

Unfortunately, they're monopolizing the supply chains and having them build big industrial equipment.
Most consumers need consumer gear. We need lawnmowers and hand pushed snowblower. Everything being built for the AI bubble is a 10m wide combine
You can't put what they're having built under a desk, or in a laptop, or as 512g storage in a thumb drive

So what you're saying is that most of the world will be plunged into non-smart appliances, and people won't discard computers and phones like they're toilet paper, like some kind of frickin' paradise?
