    It’s shitty AI companies buying RAM

    It’s greedy manufacturers selling it all to them in the first place and other market segments be damned.
    I’m no AI fan but the manufactures aren’t angels either.

          The money is fixed. You getting a raise means the money has to come from somewhere- which means the boss taking a pay cut or the customers paying more.

            Still not the same, i don’t work for any of those manufacturers - and if i did i sure as hell wouldn’t care if their CEOs got a paycut to benefit the consumers. Won’t someone please pity the CEOs…

              I’m referring to the relationship between someone offering you more money for the same work the difference of which gets passed on to consumers.

              A few consumers are going to a business and offering more money for the same work. The consumer is the business’s boss just like your boss might offer you more money. You aren’t going to turn down the raise because it will hurt other consumers just like the business isn’t going to turn down the money even though it will cost other consumers more.

              and if i did i sure as hell wouldn’t care if their CEOs got a paycut to benefit the consumers

              I brought that up because that wasn’t going to happen. If you get a raise, your boss isn’t going to take a paycut to make it happen. The raise comes from the consumers.
