    Crazy how USA seems unable to keep up, and it appears its best chance of maintaining hegemony is bringing China down, not improving itself. Never expected to see this shift in my lifetime.

      Not really that crazy when you consider that the people in charge could have had a sweetheart deal with manufacturers in China, but they cut off all trade partners and all soft power channels, because they’re drooling buffoons who won’t accept that the US shifted to a global economy decades ago nor do they grasp how global economies work—mainly because they fired every expert under the pretense of “government waste.”

      All they know how to do is grift and defraud, and the chance to maintain global hegemony is long past. It’s China’s time, now, and they know it.

    Please, please bring the world back to sanity. I was like, literally saving up to expand my homelab when my main server went down and have been utterly slapped by prices.

        China has released their first gen competition to Nvidia cards. First ones kinda suck, but they’re cheap. Let them pump out a few more and they’ll drive the market back down.

      I bought a 2x32gb DDR4 kit for my home server just before it all went to shit. Feels good (though now I want to upgrade my gaming pc and I wish I had bought a DDR5 kit too)
