    I remember about ten years ago, Intel Xeon family released a product line which included Xeon E3-1230 v2 or something similar to that. It is a server grade CPU but with a consumer grade price tag. Some suspected Intel did that to fight off the same tier of AMD CPU.

    So capitalists do do that, as long as there is competition. It was a good time.

    Now they fucking banded together, a fucking trade union for corporations which fights workers and consumers.

      They’re also really gonna want to recoup some of the money they’re about to lose once they realize that their HBM customers don’t actually have the money to pay for all the memory they ordered, and never will.
