Also watch now how magically republicans start caring about the deficit and that consumes the news cycles.

"We can't break the laws and do what we want to build datacenters we couldn't afford to build anyways, because our debt was about to be below invetment grade, since AI doesn't even come close to the returns we promised. It's the Democrats fault!!!"

Nope. The RAM they are making now is not built for consumers and cannot be used in any consumer hardware. IT will take 2-3 years for them to correct course at least.

Stock market demands the line goes up. There are two ways to do that. Reduce headcount to reduce your outgoings or increase profitability which means either selling more or raising prices.

I am not expecting lower prices.

And I'll happily oblige them, I need more ram and would also buy some sticks for use in future machines.

I bought my current computer back in 2021, and it is time to start looking for components for a new one, I usually run my machines for 7-8 years with incremental upgrades before they need to be replaced, so I have some more time...

The more the establishment fails and the more they fight DSA the better. We are in the "blue hopium" phase right now. Trying to let the libs get there on their own. I am confident the establishment Democrats will continue to betray the American people and give no accountability for the crimes of the Trump administration. Which, is not necessarily bad as long as the socialist we elect stand strong against them and don't make compromises to obtain minor improvements. It will taint their reputation and the movement if they do.

The Democrats are already talking about "moving forward" and saying the American people don't want retribution. Not even the most "vote blue no matter who" liberals I know agree with that. They want to see fucking heads roll. So, the Democrats are already doing it. They are already showing how weak they are in their strongest hour.

If DSA politicians are blocked it just shows the failures of the existing Democrats more and builds momentum for 2028.

If DSA politicians betray the movement; we're gonna have to do the work to keep the movement going outside of electoral politics. Because if we don't maintain this momentum we could lose to a Tucker Carlson style fascist that is actually competent in the white house. And the electoral portion of building class consciousness will be impossible by the time they take power. The next two years will be about preparing for both scenarios and directing our messaging based on the changing conditions.

I think you're overlooking that the democrats voted in this last election are the most progressive candidates that are actively attacking other democratic members for failing to accomplish their only job of protecting their constituency.

go look at imgur, which is frankly more blue than lemmy, and even on that platform every other post on the front page is "fuck chuckles" or "fuck jefferies". along with a long diatribes of "burn AIPAC down with Israel".

it's cathartic.
