All I can do is pray that my current RAM survives long enough for this stupid AI bubble to burst, like with the Crypto-Bro GPUs.

But it is kind of horrifying how easily consumers have been priced out of the RAM market - at least for newer stuff anyways

The only reason most non-Boomers I know even have a Facebook account nowadays is using Messenger (though I do wish they'd move to something else)

Considering everyone I know with a folding phone has had a fault with the folding part of it - I don't think its the best idea from a durability standpoint to add yet another folding part.

If one screen or fold point breaks, you're now left with two unusable (but perfectly functioning) screens. Seems like an expensive gimmick to me.

Damn. I didn't realise these AI tech-bros were moon-lighting in necromancy nowadays.

But seriously though, that is ghastly. Let the memory of the dead rest in peace you money-hungry ghouls.

Good grief... You need only look back less than 20 years ago to the 2008 housing bubble, or 25 years ago to the early 2000's .com bubble to see that AI has all the same hallmarks.

There's far too much money going in, and not enough money going out.

I just hope that people's retirement funds don't end up in the fallout.

Man, makes me want to go back and play some Uplink. Shit's fire!
