a subscription to any AI cloud service that do basically everything you could ever want to do is much cheaper than building a pc, and much more safe too.
The era of custom or powerful pcs is over, you just need an interface to connect to AIs in the cloud, not a whole powerful rig, a cheap tablet is more than enough.
embrace the future or get left behind.

Shit should be priced based on how much the vendor was paid to get such product with a reasonable margin. Once the vendor increase price is when it should be reflected in retail.

The cost of home computing, especially when adjusted for inflation, is incomparable to historical pricing. Go back and tell an early enthusiast that he could someday purchase 128GB of RAM for $1500 and he would glady pay it (in 1991 dollars, no less)

Povertyfags have been spoiled by access to insanely cheap hardware, and the internet has been sufferring as a result.

They don't want you having a PC. They don't want you running your LLM models. They don't want you writing your own code outside of their view and control. They want you under their control and watchful eye.
You all ignored me and now it's happening. I they institute death csmps and eliminate everyone next. Stupid fucking sheep

The price of tech before the AI, which is why the prices are rising btw and nothing else, were affordable for firsties, but for a turdie spending 1500 dollaroos for a pc is a multi year if not decade investment.
Ram costing 1500 dollaroos by itself if outpricing firsties too.
If your argument is about thirdies being on the web these rise for tech parts make no difference, since a shithox is plenty enough to connect to the internet and shitpost

The manufacturers have been forcing GPU prices down while RAM prices have been increasing. You can get a 5070 for less than $500, walk into a Best Buy and purchase a new 5070 Ti for $750, get the 5080 for $999 or the 5090 for $1999 from NVIDIA, and AMDs 9070XT keeps popping up for under $600. Stock fluctuates a lot, no idea how long this will all last, but GPU prices aren't terrible right now.

I love when Americans discover that they are pretty much the only country on Earth WITHOUT actual housing crisis. The average apartment in Europe is double or triple the amount of US when divides by median s wages, and in third world countries it’s even worse then that unless you want to live in rotting slum or some mudhut in middle of the jungle. Beijing median apartment costs 50 times the median salary there and forces non-Uber rich to move into single apartment with multiple generations sleeping on the floors.
