    I partially blame the whole Oracle / OpenAI / NVIDIA cabal.

    But, let’s not ignore the memory cartel’s involvement in this sham. Shitbags left themselves vulnerable to a demand crash with tiny numbers of competitors (three), tiny amounts of facilities to produce RAM, and the corporate stranglehold to keep it that way.

      You say that like it wasn’t intentional demand manipulation on the part of Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron. They have been colluding for years to manipulate the market between the three of them, so of course the system collapsed as soon as something they didn’t see coming happened (COVID, then the AI boom)
