Comment on Linux usage hits an all-time high in Steam Hardware Survey—and AMD processors continue their march against Intel

  I’m releasing a new chipset structure. It’s not Intel. It’s not AMD. It’s BUTTS BUTTS BOOTYS.

  So now all the best games will run on BUTTS BUTTS BOOTYS, and journalists will have to call it that.

    Ya gotta be more subtle than that, something like BUTTS BUTTS COCKS so even if they abbreviate it, it’s still BBC

  Imagine if they just pulled out of the market like crucial ram.

    I don’t really think it’s the same.

    Micron just became like Samsung. Samsung also doesn’t have a consumer DIY market brand. Companies like Kingston or G.Skill can still buy Samsung/SK-Hynix/Micron’s RAM, there’s been no actual reduction in supply.

    If Intel did the same as Micron did, it’d be more like third parties could sell the consumer stuff, and Intel only sold Xeons directly.

    The anger for the RAM shortage should squarely be on OpenAI - they’re the ones who bought 40% of the world’s RAM supply (and not even from Micron, mind you, just Samsung and SK-Hynix) and kicked off panic buying. Maybe throw Nvidia in there for handing them the money to do it.

    I feel like people are for some reason unwilling to blame OpenAI for this.
