But thanks for the 'hurr hurr I am not from the US' excuse

Its not an excuse, I'm not American. I live nowhere near US, thankfully. I'm not even adjacent. Why would I be subject to tarrifs applied to goods imported to the US?

And FYI the current (global) price of tech is because of the rapid expansion of datacenter compute. Fuck all to do with tarrifs.
