Soo when do bubbles pop? Is it usually and end-of-financial-year thing? I ask as someone who would like to buy a GPU within their lifetime

Imagine you're innocently dancing at a 1980's disco, then 40 years later you watch an Adam Curtis documentary and find you've been juxtaposed next to footage of fighter jets

Brief un-retirement from social media to say that I saw Pulp this week and they were incredible. OK, back to living my best life (listening to podcasts)
