  • You may hate AI, but it’s not the reason we are seeing RAM costs skyrocket.

    Looking at the manufacturing data and the historical strong-arm tactics used by Samsung, Micron, and SK hynix, who collectively control about 96% of the global DRAM market, AI just gives manufacturers the perfect public justification to stop chasing cheap bit growth, starve low-margin consumer channels (our RAM products), reprioritize wafers toward premium products (data center RAM), and force customers into multi-year contracts at shortage-era prices.

    Sure it lets them make more money off us, but they really love locking in these rates with their data center-based customers.









  • If you truly forgot to send it, you can also retain the same effect by

    • creating the reply email
    • save it as draft
    • goto your draft folder
    • click the draft and choose to forward it
    • the new email forward will look just like it normally would except the headers will have the current date and time, modify as necessary
    • add appropriate told-you-so text to the body of the forward and highlights in the “original”

    problem solved.
