Skyrocketing DRAM prices have already affected DDR5, but it will soon affect GPU prices too. We've done some modelling to show how expensive GPUs will get if GDDR prices increase a lot youtu.be/i38AAGggCVs
Insane DRAM Pricing Might Kill PC Gaming...

Valve 201X Hardware 2.0 looks good. I am basically only in the market for the Frame, but I'm going to guess almost everyone not entirely covered in gaming gear and peripherals will have interest in at least one of these devices.
Announcing: New @steampowered.com Hardware, coming in 2026:

Steam Controller
Steam Machine
Steam Frame. 

Watch our jazzy announcement video and wishlist now: steampowered.com/hardware

The Steam Hardware family officially expands in early 2026.

I'm fearful right now. I have to pay my rent and a personal loan that take 80% of check I get today. I don't know how I will pay my bills, let alone my car right now. I've been up since 5 AM worrying. If anyone can help me get to my goal, it would help me. Thank you.

So like what's the best & cheapest platform 1 (jobless) person who intends to make a pro labor & critical of capitalism website / newsletter can use?

Ghost seems reasonable
Had a long convo with a friend about capitalism, labor unions, business/ tech/ games industry, & how we always need more objective news about these things at the gym today.

I still got the flame of journalism in my heart 😮‍💨😮‍💨.

Given how eager the NYT seemed to want to run stories about emails, or about what Mamdani attended at college... I feel that the best case interpretation of this is that while you went into it genuinely, your organization and colleagues were content stonewalling you for leads and other information.
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

wild how independent journalists are like “I’m traveling on my own dime to report on this” and every institutional journalist is emailing the worst man on earth being like, “yes, sir. I will print what you tell me and ONLY what you tell me. xoxo."

yeah the PS5 can play almost anything notable that has come out in the last five years at good levels of fidelity/importance, it is a fantastic primary gaming device if you can’t or don’t want to own anything else
"PS5 HAS NO GAMES!!"

I've been using it since launch for lots of PS4 and PS5 games. It has all the games??? If anything Xbox/Steam are missing exclusives

The criminalization of impoverished young men of color suddenly clicked in my brain. It is one thing to study phenomena, but another to truly understand the logic of the historical force. A country of Kkkarolyn Bryants laughing at the abuses and murders they enable.
Like, we all know rich women want to blame poor men for all the rape their fathers, brothers, and sons do.

Far-right dudes setting world records in not being chosen.🤷🏿‍♂️

I mean, everyone gets rejected sometimes. Happens.

But if 2 in 5 women I tried to talk to backed away, took out their passports, drove to the airport, left their keys in the car at long term parking, and left the hemisphere? That'd hurt!
Record numbers of younger women want to leave the U.S.
