Just accepting how fucked things are does not advance change. Others being concerned about it benefits you, so I’m not sure what you’re complaining about.
So, you’re going with the slippery slope: There are so many other problems, why worry about a new one?
I’m homeless and struggle to afford food, so I’m aware of the larger issues in play. The problem here is that we’re adding a new one atop societal decay. Handwaving each new fuckup away is how we succumb to a future without agency.
Now is the time to be shouting from the rooftops, not giving up.
Nothing in modern society works without computers, so everything will get a bit more expensive with DRAM and NAND chips multiplying in price. Hell, wages may go down at low margin businesses dependent on computing.
It’s not apocalyptic by any means, but it’s just more salt in many wounds.
For us gamers, RAM is a once every 5 or 10 years expense. If you buy it more often, you’re just wasting money most likely. Businesses may buy a lot of new computers every year, or they might use cloud compute services that will also get more expensive.

It’s just that society has much bigger problems than the price of ram sticks.
Like the price of housing, the price of food, transportation…
I don’t find this even worth mentioning, that’s just it.

I have a rule that I will double RAM with each generation. I had 8GB of DDR2, then 16GB of DDR3. You can guess where I went with DDR4.
Looks like I’m not getting 64GB this year.
Also part of the 32 GB DDR4 club here; I’m considering waiting for DDR6 and 128 GB lol
Have fun with the wait!
Got 64GB DDR5 earlier this year. I went to check the price of the kit recently and it’s up to $800. Shit’s insane.
What timings?
6000 MT/s 28-36-36-96
Looks like a nice kit. I was holding out for 6400 before everything fell apart. G.Skill has been solid for me in the past.
