This is already happening in some states and countries, electric bills are spiking 10-30% simply because AI data centers are eating up so much, and the people paying for that are you and me rather than the billionaires or government. God help you if you're in Taiwan and their nightmare droughts, they're gonna basically be obliterated by the resource demand so bad that China will have literally nothing of value to loot from their corpse but a shitty island real estate.

What will you say when the tariffs are removed and prices don't go back down?

The current tariff on South Korea is only 15%

Just like how egg prices doubled despite actual egg production dropping by less than 2%, but the lie repeated by everyone was the egg prices were because of the avian flu

Meanwhile egg companies like cal maine had over 6x their normal profit (surplus value generated by workers that goes to shareholders) in 2023

This is a good thing. Gaming companies now can't rely on pushing you to buy hardware they have to use what exists and make the best game possible

>>727506154
You don't think they locked in orders months ago? It takes a while when you have to order components and assemble the machines so you need a bretty big buffer of units if you want to meet demand. Valve has the possibility of keeping pc gaming alive since it's what they subsists on, it's actually necessary for their continued survival.

North Korea quite literally has made state-owned video games for the Xbox Kinect (pic related) and recently opened their first gaming cafes with quite a lot of decent games, I saw a list of them recently

They also have always had arcade games for a long time.

"Living in the forest" is illegal under capitalism

Capitalism is not optional, you can't just pick a spot of land and start building your own house, hunting, farming, etc.

Hell, you can't even build your own house if you own the land

100% of all land is owned but you have to physically exist somewhere, and they charge insane fees to physically exist.

Eskimos built houses for $0 in one day, and paid $0 for housing for the rest of their life.

Wow, it's almost like I deliberately chose the harshest environment with little resources to prove that land-rent is a systematic CHOICE.

Building free housing for everyone would be trivial, capitalism chooses not to, they instead chose to make housing a financial instrument they lend against as collateral and watch appreciate.

Sure, but it's not like there is a solution to that.
Even if by some miracle capitalism would get crushed humans on top would find the way to turn the whole idea into shit.

>>727493607
in california and hawaii they charge you 50+ cents a kwh in some places. if you dont let the jews hold you hostage with their solar panel middle manning they might not even let you have electricity. oh but dont worry goy, all the middle-man jew installations of solar comes with inverter systems with israeli owned cpus and always online ai assistences so companies like tesla can remotely shut off or redirect -your- solar power whenever they feel like it.
