You are now permanently banned from Reddit

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

And the only reason you're not banned from X is because Altman and Musk are competing for the same tech messiah title.

I have 128g of Corsair ddr5 I am saving to pay for my sons tuition in 15 years.

[–] netweirdo@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I bought a new laptop with 16 GB of DDR5 (8 GB soldered and 8 GB socketed) as it was super cheap for an 8840HS, and was planning to buy a 48 GB SODIMM for 120€ but held off on it for multiple reasons, thinking "it can wait and I can make do with less memory for now"

Yeah that 48 GB stick now costs 500€ which is just 50€ short of the entire laptop...

[–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

This too shall pass - we can hope that now there is both a massive revenue opportunity in the server market as well as an abandoned consumer market ripe for the taking, some enterprising manufacturer is going to look into filling this niche. Probably someone out of China, or maybe even India if they can get their shit together in time.

wait until the bubble crashes and we have tons of ram in the pipeline with no dedicated buyers

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Hope you can use ECC in your boards, otherwise it'll be worthless

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 2 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

It's not even ECC, OpenAI bought up unfinished wafers that still need work to become proper RAM just so that others can't have it.

It will just not get made.

[–] cheesybuddha@lemmy.world 3 points 20 hours ago

Homelabbers of the world rejoice

[–] little_tuptup@lemmy.ml 22 points 2 days ago

whaaat? did he really say this or is this ai?

ai is so realistic now.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 67 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

That's the least significant reason for beating Sam Altman to death.

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 58 points 2 days ago

Once you’ve been searching on the internet for a fact, you’ll never stop wanting to beat every AI tech bro to death with your bare hands.

Recently upgraded my servers. 256GB ddr5 each. Was 1600 moneyz altogether. Now, not half a year later, the exact same ram is 6400 now.

I bought twice the amount by accident and sent half of it back..for which I now bit my left nut off..could've been a free bunch of gaming PCs.

[–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oof, you lucky dog. Except the last part, but that's just the difference between being just lucky and being really fucking lucky.

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 days ago

Oh yeah lucky! I evened out fate, as I waited to finally buy my GPU at the absolute peak for an insanely outrageous price only to see it fall day by day since then.

So, I'm kinda at zero (dis-)advantage now 😁

[–] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My friend bought what he thought was 16GB ddr5 for $50, but turned out to be 10 sets for $500. Now they're selling for about $250 each. Everything is insane!

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

Totally bonkers, yes. But chill! It all will relax in the near future and go down to just 200% more expensive than before. And then stay there. And we will be happy-ish.

[–] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I saw 32GB of DDR4 RAM at best buy the other day for around 400 bucks. Which wasn't adding up for me at all but ok

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

JFC I upgraded in July to 64gb because it was on sale for $160

[–] Bazell@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Why hurting your own hands if you can use tools to make beating more efficient?

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 13 points 2 days ago

Henry Kissinger deserves that personal touch.

I'd rather cut Sam Altman's hands off and use them to beat him to death while screaming "stop hitting yourself, Sam! Stop hitting yourself!"

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago (3 children)
[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 52 points 2 days ago

Why not both?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 22 points 2 days ago

Elon Musk wanted to do this, but his mom said he couldn’t.

I mean I would still wanna do that even if it reduced costs to like $300 for a fully spec'd dream system.

Even if it cost me $300 per hit, if stop turn him into a vegetable. That'd be the best money ever spent.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

I appreciate the juxtaposition between your username and this comment wanting to beat one of the universe's most useless life forms.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 14 points 2 days ago

But why not give in? Bottling up negative energy is not good for you.

What was the original quote?

[–] thatsTheCatch@lemmy.nz 87 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Came to ask the same thing.

Once you've been to Cambodia, you'll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 41 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Damn, that's also true.

Fortunately Kissinger is dead!

Unfortunately, Altman is still alive.
