    I bought 32GB not long ago and now I want 32GB more*. These buckets fuckheads (ducking autocorrect) represent everything wrong with the industry.

    *: Partially as a proverbial middle finger to piss off Sam LLMtman

      I understand the sentiment, but buying more ram right now means rewarding the market for its scheme and accepting the inflated prices. it’s the very opposite of giving a middle finger

        I’m not buying now. I’ll manage with 32G plus swap until these guys are forced to sell unused stock (long story short, loads of the hardware bought by the tech bros aren’t even in use yet. They’re bought now so that finance departments can for once write up an asset as appreciating in value)

        I’m not holding my breath, because I think it’ll take a lot longer than most Lemmings think for the bubble to pop. But I am sure it will pop eventually, and I am thoroughly looking forward to it.
