“I’ve been saving for months to get the Corsair Dominator 64GB CL30 kit,” one beleagured PC builder wrote on Reddit. “It was about $280 when I looked,” said u/RaidriarT, “Fast forward today on PCPartPicker, they want $547 for the same kit? A nearly 100% increase in a couple months?”
neither did the housing speculators in the late 2000s though, it will come crashing down eventually.
though i wonder if yall gonna let them get bailed out again, that still remains to be seen.
This bubble is largely self dependent with all invested parties incentivised to prop it up. Completely different type of situation.
so, still a bubble like the housing crash?
No. The housing crash really started to go off when regular people could not pay their bills. These arent regular folks here. These are mega corporations.
that’s how a bubble works. they are mega corporations that represent like 90% of the economy. their companies go under, the people working for them are jobless all at once.
Are you like… just not reading the parts where I explain how these are massively different situations?
2 things can be bubbles while being massively different in the forces at play.
yes i agree. i was a bit absentminded and thought you were saying something slightly different. disregard my tired ass.
