Imagine if we put this level of effort into something objectively positive for the human race.
Theoretically it should be. We can stop working most jobs and spend our time enjoying ourselves.
Too bad that won’t happen.
Instead they are destroying environments and communities and guzzling water and power.
Enshitification abounds
Wonderful.
This reminds me of those morons that run out to buy ALL the toilet paper to sell later.
Except it’s the toilet paper manufacturers that are hoarding all their product because there are these billionaire fuck-bags that are promising to produce a massive pile of shit and will pay anything to have ALL the toilet paper.
That a shitty analogy… But a good one.
stupid idiots
You know what’s crazy about this AI bullshit. I’ve been wanting to buy a micro SD card for my tablet but the hard drive shortage has caused the price of micro SD cards to double in the past few months, so I might not be able to anytime soon. The only one that’s reasonably priced is from Silicon Power, which is a brand that I’ve never even heard of before.
I have one, I bought it directly from them on their website. Its pretty decent for the price. It hasn’t failed in a few years so that’s good.
Silicon Power
They’ve been around for a long time, they’re decent.
even flashdrives have gotten more expensive
Idk, I still see 256GB Emtec ones for 10€ in my local supermarket.
Terminator said AI would destroy humanity. We just didn‘t know it would be with hoarding of natural and manufactured resources to fuel an idiocracy. No pitched and desperate war for the survival of humanity, just a necrosis eating us alive for the quarterly report.
In other news grocery stores are out of tomatoes, because AI.
Oh fuck…
I just need two more 8TB drives so I can complete my NAS, that is all. Don’t blow up now! Please…
):
Looks like somebody’s going to be buying hard drives with Affirm lol
I’m tempted to just say "good, less WD drives around ". But there aren’t a lot, if any, good manufacturers left. What we actually get is probably more Seagate, which is even worse.
We still have Toshiba.
I like their drives.My favorite as well.
