    Oh the things that already got ridiculously expensive? Sure let’s make them unattainable.

      Funny part is it’s in his best interest that these stay affordable so the 16-40 year old men in this country remain distracted.

      Trump actively fucking up the food supply and entertainment is amateur hour.

    Trump is killing the American economy, the tariffs are a hoax to cover tax cuts to the 1%.
    But instead they just increase inflation, and undermine the economy of the middle class and small businesses and farmers.

      It’s a twofer, his boss Putin wants the Republicans to destroy America, and Trump is getting insanely rich off the corruption while doing it

        If the Putin thing was true, Trump would have entirely cut off Ukraine instead of changing his stance every time he talks to somebody. The idea that he’s working on behalf of evil *foreign *billionaires instead of just a billionaire doing things that benefit him and his class is bluanon shit. Libs will invent wild conspiracies and fall face-first into fascism before questioning the capitalist system.

    Hrm, the tinfoil hat part of me that thought the massive spike in RAM and storage was a bid to make the average consumer have to subscribe to thin workstations (so you own nothing, only run “approved” software, and have all your actions monitored for compliance) gets another supporting data point.

    Edit: the full conspiracy theory incorporates the AI bubble and suddenly super cheap data center space with a metric fuckton of GPUs that can be repurposed. Why pay $3k for a gaming desktop when you can pay $100 for a little box that sits on your desk and RDPs into a cloud workstation in a data center 10 miles from your house?
