We are all becoming thin clients again, obedient to the big tech salesmen. The original IBM dream is unfolding before our very eyes ๐Ÿ‘ Of course this fuckery was normalized as usual by whom? Reveal in 3, 2, 1: The GAMING INDUSTRY and their cloud gaming BS ๐ŸŽ‰ The people who (in the long run) brought you subscriptions for your BMW seat heating btw. Ain't it great. Thank you AI, thank you NVidia.

I want to buy a new thin client to upgrade my #Bitcoin node because the 1TB disk space is running out. I'd pay twice of what I paid 2 years ago for the same machine. Fuck this. This isn't how tech progress should work. I hate AI for many reasons, but this takes the cake. And is any media complaining? Like they did with Bitcoin about energy usage and graphics cards prices? No. Nothing. AI is, at this point, hostile tech to humanity. But people suck it up because it makes fake cat memes and lobster Jesuses. I think NVidia, MS and all these fucks are moving to "computing as a service" They will make hardware so expensive that we can only rent it if we aren't the 1%. Fuck this timeline, fuck it dearly. #rant #ai #bitcoin #ram #caas

2026-7 is gonna be pretty chaotic indeed. At least people here have an open mind and hopefully roll with the changes
