@eniko Might as well at this point, right? Can't afford storage or RAM, what's the point of buying a processor?

I'll be honest, I didn't see this as being the next front in the war on general purpose computing, just pricing the rest of us the fuck out at the supply end.

@xgranade but look at those margins, amirite? It's all part of the global wealth extraction trend to get rich people richer while us plebs fight each other to house and feed ourselves.

@eniko

@dacmot @eniko Yes, but it's more than just margins, I think. It's also that soon none of us will be able to afford a computer, but we'll still need one, such that renting a computer is the only option left. At that point, there's no backstop at *all* against margins growing.

@xgranade oh yeah. They have it all planned out. 😒
