which is why there is no hoarding of all the computers and RAM for data centers that don’t even exist. what we are witnessing is a mafia-type collusion to remove from commercial circulation all the computational power people need to continue about their daily digital lives without paying rents to IP-thieving techbro clouds.

THERE IS NO RAM SHORTAGE.

THERE IS A BIG TECH COLLUSION TO CREATE A PC TECH SHORTAGE

memory is just the beginning. techbros are out to kill the PC market

@blogdiva yep: they're not even buying RAM, just RAM futures, creating an artificial scarcity that drives up prices for their competition (ie. us, ordinary human beings).
@flipper @blogdiva
Sometimes, I like to imagine a world where we just threw people into a volcano if they tried to do shit like lend the same banana to three people and then claim they had three bananas or sell people bananas that don't exist yet.

@jargoggles @blogdiva @flipper See, that’s how you end up with polluted volcanos.

Dump your billionaires elsewhere! Leave the volcanos alone!

@inthehands @jargoggles @blogdiva @flipper Wouldn't they just vaporize immediately? Wear your respirator!
