Sony halts memory card shipments due to NAND shortage

A moments silence for Memory stick... Yeah that should do it.

I feel like all these hardware shortages will supercharge 2nd hand electronics and their refurbishing from repair specialists.

Didn't OpenAI cancel a bunch of memory orders? Seems premature to announce this as there soon will be a glut of memory in the market.

Is this how globalization ends?

The AI corporations owe us money. I fail to see why we all have to pay more due to these greedy companies - they should pay us compensation money for driving up the prices here. In particular the US government is helping drive these prices up as well - not just due to AI situation, but also due to destroying part of the energy supply lines via its bombing of Iran as well as stock market manipulation. A mafia is pillaging all of us here.
