Just checking RAM prices. Holy shit when did that happen.
Bought my 64gb for like $300 not too long ago. Now it’s $1300 which is what this whole rig cost lol.
Got lucky with that one.

Micron just announced they are dumping their Crucial retail brand to focus on supplying the AI circular financing bubble financial disaster. It is crazy. I hope our super funds aren’t tied up in this crap. We will end up poorer than North Korea.

These companies are determined to ruin absolutely everything aren’t they? This has knock on effects for repairing/upgrading/buying low cost refurbished computers and reducing e-waste as well as screwing the economy when it goes down.
With any luck morally and financially impoverished people might stealthily avail themselves of the newly lucrative items the way it happens with copper wire and pipes

Wow. And that’s a fairly well known brand. This won’t end well.
