    Isn't most modern comput-o-communication done with fiber optics these days? And the power supply wires are often made from aluminum. Very little copper in them data centers what with the insatiable greed of their CEO's.

    Plenty of copper in the switch gears, and at the panels. Single mode fiber is used as backbone for long runs. Multimode is used for backbone between closets.

    Data centers may use cat 8 wire which also doesn't have much copper in them but, those big fuck ass CRAC units gots plenty of copper.

    Plenty of memory and processors. Thats the real haul. Sell that ram to gamers like crack cocaine.

    Most of it is GPU RAM that those gamers won't be able to use.

    But well, I'm not going to shame anyone because of a low yield.

    Not yet, and not with that attitude. If a comrade were to facilitate the means of production via alleged seizing there of, a list of how to get them in the hands of the correct furries and/or thigh-high sock aficionados could be sourced relatively easily...

    There's quite a bit of folk itching to get their soldering irons heating and the jank started ahead of the bubble collapse.

    So why is there a memory shortage if the data centers are using a type of ram that gamers can't even use?
