First played LTTP. Rented it from Blockbuster and didn't really click for me being the age I was. Then I played Ocarina of Time being a little older and was a fan ever since. Though it got me to be a fan, still like LTTP more though.

I don't know. I just don't think corporations can make real video games anymore.

I understand framing the AI bubble RAM supply crisis in terms of stuff like video game consoles because nerds can conceptualize that but the framing does really undersell the sheer magnitude of how it's going to fuck up everything that even touches a computer.

The AI bubble RAM crisis is caused for non-existent problems by non-existent money for a non-existent infrastructure to meet non-existent demand to make non-existent business and will utterly destroy real business based on real demand and real infrastructure built with real money for real problems.

The funniest part of the RAM pricing thing is it fucks up AI stuff too. You need a phone to talk to these models. You need a computer. They increased the default RAM on the base MacBook Air in part to handle local models! You need some local computing to get to the cloud!

I'd like to add that like in all industries, when we stop understanding how our tools work, we become entirely dependent on the corporate entities that own the mold. We are trading the ability to build and repair for the convenience of being permanent tenants in someone else's infrastructure/subs.

So often the story told of China's industrial success is one of state directed overthrow of the west.

There's a completely different one of entrepreneurs trying to find their spaces in crowded but growing markets.

This latter story is largely being ignored. www.ft.com/content/15e2364e-6ad0-4b28-90b7-7dc43412edd3?segmentId=3f81fe28-ba5d-8a93-616e-4859191fabd8

The Attorney General is openly threatening state governments. The democrats won't do anything despite this.
