I'm Glad That RAM Prices Are Crazy

It won't and here's why...

Game development is done for known quantities, the RAM in an Xbox Series X/S, PS5/Pro, Switch, Steam Deck, now Steam Machine isn't changing. It's a fixed, known quantity, and they code for that.

Storage is a different issue, and can be expanded many ways, but the processors and RAM isn't going anywhere.

If anything, what we're going to see is an extended gaming generation where the Next Gen machines can't be successfully launched or supported.

Israel committed genocide in Gaza, deliberately targeted Palestinian children: UN report

Reply in thread

Hamas killed 10,000 children in 5 months? Israel did.

“This is not a normal war. The war in Ukraine has killed 500 kids in two years and the war in Gaza has killed over 10,000 in less than five months. We have seen wars before but this is something that is a dark stain on our shared humanity.”

"The doctor went on to claim that Israeli snipers are deliberately shooting children in Gaza, citing his observation of two children who were shot twice. "No child gets shot twice by mistake," he said.

"Metadata proves it was real," Perlmutter added, referencing a recent article published by The New York Times detailing the harrowing experiences of doctors in Gaza such as himself."

How does this scam work?

Man, if I had a nickel for every time I saw this:

Wrong number ✅
Beautiful Asian woman living in LA ✅
Owns her own business, jewelry/fashion design/finance ✅
Mysteriously keeps the conversation going even when told it's a wrong number ✅

Tries a romance angle to suck you in to a crypto "investment" in 3-2-1...

Typically run out of boiler room call centers in Myanmar using, essentially, slave labor:
