The fact that no new ram production capacity is being developed would indicate a lack of future contracts

You would need more ram to do that. Understand the difference between primary and secondary memory.

It’s a 25% tariff it’s in addition to the current 15%

Linear components like power amplifiers are made from the same material as digital circuitry, and they use a lot more of it.

What, you mean it wasn’t there already ? It’s the only place where it would be actually useful.

Reagan in his second term would forget what he said halfway through a sentence.

I think Irish Stew is safe. No one’s touching that.

It could be a hardware issue. I’ve found that if the screen drivers fail it usually switches to a text console or reboots into one. Assuming you have a laptop, does wiggling the screen make any difference. If its a desktop, try wiggling the power connector or video cable (both ends) and along the cables, sometimes stress can break the wires in the cables if they go around a bend.

The rot really began with Google and the the goal of “professionalism” in teaching.

Textbooks were thrown out, in favour of “flexible” teaching models, and Google allowed lazy teachers to just set assignments rather than teach lessons (prior to Google, the lack of resources in a normal school made assignments difficult to complete to any sort of acceptable standard).

The continual demand for “professionalism” also drove this trend - “we have to have these vast, long winded assignments because that’s what is done at university”.

AI has rendered this method of pedagogy void, but the teaching profession refuses to abandon their aim for “professionalism”.

In China you can exit from a 12 lane freeway into a creek bed.

If there was really any demand more DRAM would be being produced.

The reality is most datacentre companies have warehouses full of DRAM and GPUs waiting for datacentres to be built. By the time they will be built, the GPUs they have stashed will be obsolete.

PC sales - and PCs use a lot more DRAM than phones - are falling off a cliff.

So there is no real future demand, that’s why no ones building chip fabs.

It switches to storing files on Onedrive without warning.

Then if you disable Onedrive, you lose access to your files (on Onedrive) and their memory space is reused.

It doesn’t actually delete local storage, as the path is just switched.

When I was in year 5 the kids in the class had been working cutting apricots and they bought tonnes of candy and these whistles they were blowing all the time.

How much did the whistles cost ? one cent.

True story.

It isn’t any easier and the infrastructure in Louisiana used to produce Venezuelan oil was abandoned decades ago.

Once you find out it contains peppermint oil you always notice it.

From the questions people ask and from online accounts.

2006 - 2G Siemens

2016 - 3G Samsung (2G turned off)

2022 - 4G ZTE (3G turned off)

Electrical, plumbing, HVAC are all pretty solid.

Heh no. All of those are being automated and dumbed down.

In a few years all you’ll need is an unskilled labourer and a robot.
