victorz comments on PC games hardware prices to go up even as market shrinks due to RAM costs

Oh shit, aight. That would return me about 80% of what I paid for it, and net me about $8/month if you treat it as a subscription over how long I've had it.

You... Bought your old PC for almost 2 million dollars?

What kind of math are you smoking.

No, about $2,500. How did you get to 2 million dollars?

Am I the one who can't math? Stop making me second-guess myself! Unless I'm wrong, then do. But am I?! Ahh!

2000k = 2,000,000

I assumed they meant $2000. Or were they trolling?

I was just being pedantic, and tried being funny when you said you paid about 80% of 2000k.

Sadly, I still lack the ability to read minds of other Lemmy posters. I was just explaining where the smoking math came from.
