what if companies are mass buying hardware not only because of AI, but to push people into a cloud ecosystem in the future?imagine a future where most consumer hardware can only run a browser and very lightweight stuff, and the rest needs to be done though cloud services

>>107555161You are making a lot of sense right now.They have already made people dependent on phones, devices with the highest level of abstraction and control, and now they are forcing a scarcity of valuable hardware.I really despise these people.
They've already eshittified and cloudified cars, appliances, phones, and other electronics. It's just a matter of time before they do it personal computers.
>>107555161Thank fuck for gaymer turboautists because unless corpos can make streaming go faster than light they'll never convince them to switch and for that reason we'll still get some (((decent))) hardware.
>>107555161>>107555279yep these people need to burn
>>>/sci/16866195^, else:Feel free to discuss a what if it is easier to simulate since we do not actually want as an experience.

>>107555161I mean, obviously with people like Peter Thiel pushing techno fascism. America is heading into fascism and Trump is the puppet president trying to get it done. Trump would do anything for money and pussy, he is a soulless husk. An empty vessel that only craves and exists for the two. They like presidents who will act that way. One man is too stupid to be making decisions that grand.I'm like 90% sure its Thiel pushing a decent chunk of this shit ngl. He basically oversees silicon valley and shit like Google and Facebook (which is under rule by the paypal mafia and Peter Thiel is the don of that group, which also includes Musk) which builds databases on us entirely for governments to pull and hes building Palentir. Also most of the policies signed by trump align with his ideals. We are all already being watched, its all just done by privatized companies because it only sounds bad if the government does it. Cant wait until everyone unanimously realizes otherwise lol.Ngl a lot of his ideology makes sense and is pretty good. I think most people fucking suck and should be doing a lot more for their community and for people, striving to be at their absolute best and to maxmize charity and the wellbeing of their community. I think that requires everyone to be monitered and for some communities to be wiped. Everyone can change, but some are too stubborn to and some will just take too long.
>>107558281>Everyone can changeI assure you the SECOND this shit starts to impact the ability for druggies and alcoholics to shit up every nation on earth the whole project will burn down overnight lmaoThere are too many people who simply need to be pulled from the streets and terminated, they have no chance of recovery and no amount of stupid tech bullshit can fix them. They are already visible with the naked eye to anyone with a pulse, they are black, white, brown, arab, asian and every shade inbetween.A society in the shape of a utopia cannot be created by trying to make dogshit sticky enough to hold that shape you need to use a clean material.
>>107555161As long as the government doesn't intervene in stopping the production of hardware, as prices rise margins also rise and create an opportunity for new producers to enter the market It's not guaranteed because nothing is guaranteed. AI is destined to fail anyway, it's revolutionising things but margins will lower easily. These companies are basically investing for nothing but they're using freshly printed government money anyway.
This is being done by a desperate scam company to hinder it's competition. Even NVIDIA is backing out on some of it's plans to support them because despite all the hardware they burn they keep getting smacked by more efficient models. We're caught in the crossfire of a literal fucking retard given unlimited VC capital because he looooooves sucking dick
These threads are made by tech inept people. I could comfortably use 4GB of RAM on any popular Linux distribution and probably would be fine with two. Plenty of people run pretty intense workloads with 8GB Macbook Airs which are usually the most powerful laptops with just 8GB of Ram. 99% of people have 16GB of RAM or more and if one of their sticks die they won't need to change to a fucking cloud because they would still have 8GB of RAM.
>>107555161>but to push people into a cloud ecosystem in the future?How long precisely do you feel it practical to restrict the ability to purchase?What about all the manufacturers without a "cloud presence"? Why would they play this game? Whilst they're waiting out the market for all the existing and usable devices to die and losing sales consistently in the process....>imagine a future where most consumer hardware can only run a browser and very lightweight stuff, and the rest needs to be done though cloud servicesyou mean the '60s/70s? When you interfaced a terminal because that was cheap and you shared computer time across the network because it was expensive and the computer was the size of a f'kin building.
>>107558330Nah, I think when they wake up itll already be too late and the surveilence will be so good that you cant really do anything about it. But I agree, it isnt a racial thing. Every race has good genetics in them, it isnt race exclusive.
>>107559345>the surveilence will be so good that you cant really do anything about it.Anything they can do, I can counter.But you're acting as if there hasn't been decade after decade of accepting this ever more invasive technology into lives, actually paying for the privilidge. In Orwell's defence, he couldn't have envisioned the rise of the handcomputer, but he's pretty accurate on the rest...
>>107555161The solution is to burn down the cloud servers.
>>107558520A Windows 11 install with a couple of Microsoft Office apps and a webbrowser open pulls 18GB of RAM already
>>107560136Where as a sensible setup able to produce the same output can be well under 3x that requirement.
>>107558520Are you an edge case or the norm? Are you a content creator or gamer?It's one piece of the puzzle at a time until there is no consumer market left.
if what OP says is true, the ruling class is taking full control of the means of production. The bastards are playing this shit by the book.>t. I belong to a hacker club composed entirely of anarquists
>>107560317>the ruling class is taking full control of the means of production.....So who do you suppose had the 'means of production' before?>The bastards are playing this shit by the book.The book written literally hundreds of years ago, as they was doing it?Yeah.>anarquistsIt would be funny, but you serious.>>107560303>Are you an edge case or the norm?NTA, but I'm deffo an 'edge case'. I roll with my shit *tight*.But I don't base assessments on me, that'd be unwise. If erryone was like me, then you wouldn't have docile media. You wouldn't have adverts. You wouldn't have invasive metrics normalised with the excuse of advertising and 'personalisation'. Because everyone would have been able to spot the move and had none of it.But considering the 'normals'. Win11 has proven dissatisfactory for large swathes. Older gens like my mother to newer gens like me daughter. Many different reasons, one universal outlook: It's shit.Some with a more technical bent may be bothered with the fiddling and tweaking to inevitably discover the futility. But the number of these are dropping...This has massively impacted hardware sales. The planned forced obscelescance has backfired, people would rather use winXP and join the botnet.*IF* there is a push to "cloud", explain the manufacturers with no "cloud presence" that really only cater to the consumer market. There's more of them. Globally. What incentive do they have to write off their industry for someone else's profit?
>>107558281It's not just Thiel, it's pretty much everyone in Silicon Valley with a networth of over $100M who shares in his evil vision of forcing techno-slavery over the population using their products as the mechanism for doing so. People need to wake up to what's going on and reject it fast before it's too late. They depend on us being too distracted and too stupid to notice what they're doing.
>>107560679>No cloud presenceWho?You'll have to be more specific on which manufacturer that isn't a part of the GPU, Memory, Server, AI infinite money loop that has any pull whatsoever on market direction.
>>107560679>So who do you suppose had the 'means of production' before?I imagine you are referring to the chips factories, I understand that, but the products, the computational assets (RAM, GPUs, CPUs) those are also means of productions.
