The top of the market sucks but I’ve been building am4 systems for people for about 400$. 3700x or 5500 is good enough for most people and as long as they don’t break their motherboard they can drop in an upgrade.

My fastest pc right now is probably my 5700x3d and 4070 super. So I feel like I have 2 years to find an upgrade.

Really what needs to happen is a few companies consolidate regional dev talent and become software companies.

If I was sony I’d bet on steamos. Nintendo would be in the best position if their games weren’t locked to their systems. Because their wheel house is low spec games that could run on anything.

If you can get people to engage with that idea. Then they can think for themselves and there’s less room for people to put ideas in their head.

I think we need to look at housing as a technology to spread as opposed to an investment to horde. Then do the same thing with utilities.

Tons of reasons not to do it but it makes society less dependent on employment.
