@paul Oh my, if anyone is still using a FireWire hard drive or DV camera I have news for them: you’re 25 years behind the state-of-the-art 🙁

@paul but don’t have the CaBLe for both versions?

I do…and various devices still available to plugin…

Got out fairly unscathed (5900XT was on sale for like $280)

@paul You can always count on MicroCenter!😀

@paul surprised they’re not paying people to take them off their hands

@paul I was mad about spending $385 for 64GB a few months ago.

@paul On the upside, if you are patient you can buy this all back for a container of gasoline and a can of beans after the AI crash destroys the economy. So we have that to look forward to.

@paul omg ... I stuck 32GB of RAM (admittedly DDR4) in my Framework laptop earlier this year... it was £55 ($74 at current rates) ...

That pricing is insane.

@paul lol wow

@paul thank god i spent way too much money on memory in 2024

@paul we are making a killing in ewaste right now. Random shit we’ve had sitting in the back of the warehouse forever suddenly has RAM fetching amazing prices.

@paul $709?! Holy crap

@paul

@paul 😳
