We are going backwards due to increased RAM prices: 4 GB RAM default in mobile phones and 8 GB default in laptops. SSD prices are likely to go out of control as Samsung halts production. Don’t even ask about gaming console. Thank you sam altman and tech bros for ruining everything that is fun 😏https://www.tweaktown.com/news/109337/samsung-halting-sata-ssd-production-says-leaker-warns-of-18-months-of-ssd-price-pressure/index.html

@nixCraft read that but didn't see the reason. Just to move production capacity to ram? Shortsighted imo

@nixCraft excellent, all the morons who were making things memory and storage inefficient from grounds up because they are lazy and stupid to design something better, while saying it is because only memory and storage is so cheap and people don't care can STFU now.

@htpcnzLol, not really a propos to the current ditch, CP/M macro assembler is under 12,000 bytes long. @nixCraft
