The whole world needs to turn on the wealthy. I don't want to be rich. I want to be able to buy more with the money I have. The wealthy don't even think about money anymore.
Time for a world revolution. Most people of the world want to be left alone to do their own thing. It's the wealthy that are always harassing people and trying to take control.

This. I make low six figures and support myself and my spouse on a single income. We’ve had to be careful in choosing where to live, how much house to buy and all that. I’m not baller, but I’m comfortable. Amenities are fine and I pay my bills without much thought. I’m working toward retirement.
That’s a reasonable amount of wealth for most. The problem is there are people with so much wealth it provides them the means to manipulate society in sweeping gestures.
Also, while insider trading is illegal, someone with this much wealth, influence, and power can’t help but have inside information just for existing in the circles they do, and wealth leads to greater wealth simply because there’s no way to regulate it reasonably.

I would say a good proportion are enablers, probably because they are thinking of themselves as "temporarily embarrassed future billionaires"

Countries like Australia, Scotland, NZ, Germany have superior voting systems compared with the US "first past the post" system.

One time I was really high at an unfortunate time and the Gmail AI helped me with the time sensitive email my lawyer needed from me. Like, to actually sound like I speak English as a primary language and make the formatting cohesive instead of scattered.
That's bout it tho lol

The iPhone’s auto-correct is the worst by far. And I don’t get it because it was actually good around iOS 16 or so. Since 17 it’s been utterly terrible and constantly corrects words that are already what I wanted, making them wrong.

So that means that HDDs will also stay expensive ):
I have a big choice here.
A. Bite the bullet and buy two more 8TB HDDs and complete my NAS as planned.
B. Wait and hope for lower prices.
C. Bite another bullet and run the NAS as a 24TB ZRAID1 instead of a 32TB ZRAID2.
Sigh....

Ditto. My homemade Mac mini file server just bit me with an APFS drive corruption. Needing to get something put together with redundancy. Like NOW! and these shit heads are killing the market!

I was planning on a NAS home server. I was setting aside money to make the purchases. Prices have forced me out of that little side project for the time being...

Do it. It's only getting worse. I've spent more than I want to admit on hardware the last couple months and it's only got me wanting to spend now on remaining items on my list.
Btw check out fractal node.. 10 hdds... I have 2 z2 vdevs in there. First were 2tb. 2nd are 10tb. Think I have almost 30 usable total.

Consider: graphics cards pricing.
Shit’s not coming back down to reasonable prices any time soon. At least not without major intervention on the part of governments.

Now is a very good time to exercise one's Delayed Gratification ability.

I just bought an old dell optiplex, it was surplus from the university. I could take the ram out and double my money. Ridiculous....
