It´s the camera´s fault.
I mean yeah.
This is part of a collection anyway.
None of those two desktops are connected to the internet, major rule to preserver and keep what is already established. I´m not a multiplayer fag either way, i play solo all the time. For internet use, i got a crappy laptop that does the job tbh

>>54295Their intentions are weak and flimsy just like this law. Their own research showed consoles use more power but they didn’t do anything about those. And other high energy computing systems used for things like modeling and AI are going untouched. The suits who drafted and signed this bill are idiots unaware of what they’re doing, and so will be inept at any kind of enforcement.

>>55257Yeah, it's no where near that bad in the US.
It's just 50-80% more expensive, which is still in reach of nearly anyone with a steady minimal wage or close to it job if they save/budget for 6 months or so. Significantly less if they don't have bills n shit to pay.

>>55287was going to type the exact same thing but deleted it lol, I don't know if thats true because the system requirements keep going up. I was able to run the super early versions of rust legacy and 7 days to die with 4gb ram and intel hd.
"upgraded" two years ago to 8gb ram/entry level gpu before the price hike and keep playing them but now they require a 6 core cpu, 4gb vram and 12gb ram minimum or recommended :/

>>55266maybe. but what if the retail shoip will start just horde them and sit on them. Surely the buyer will pay more anyways. I suspect they will keep those high prices even after the shortages are no longer the case.

>>55293You do realize that storing inventory cost money and space is limited.
If they aren't selling it then every day they hold it they are losing money because it is clogging up the inventory of stuff they could be using to make money.
Also with how fast PC hardware changes and updates the market can change fast enough that they would be left holding the tech equivalent of spoiled goods, when they would have profited the most from selling them while the demand was highest.
To put it even more simply, in the real physical world doing something like that would cost too much in the short term, and lead to less money in the long run then just selling them as they get them in.

>>56350They can make more than enough money just keeping the prices at 5-10x forever because storing small boxes sitting on a pallet isn't hard or expensive. Crypto niggers and scalpers will keep buying all available cards at any price anyway. Meanwhile I see regular people fighting over trash, paying premium for second hand mid tier hardware that's two or three generations old, that was abused to hell by miners and is likely to fail shortly, no refunds. I don't see a way out of this when a shitty new 1650 costs more than a 980ti did back when I bought it at launch.
It's not even about money at this point. Nothing is about money anymore. Filthy proles like me who make close to minimum wage are supposed to be kept not only poor but completely miserable too. Unworthy plebeians will never again be allowed to have access to easily entered hobbies where any of us could save up for top quality gear and be content with his setup for years. Distractions from the horror of modern commoner's life are forbidden and that's the way it's supposed to stay. The virus panic is never going away, the elites and middle class want to keep us locked up, terrorized and miserable.

>>56362>They can make more than enough money just keeping the prices at 5-10x foreverYou seem not to realize that retailers have to pay 5-10x more as well to obtain those cards.
The margense for electronics aren't anywhere near as good as you seem to think they are at the retail level.
> storing small boxes sitting on a pallet isn't hard or expensiveYes it is. I can tell you know literally nothing about inventory of a even semi active location. There is no space to just indefinably store things to speculate on price at a retail location. A store isn't a warehouse, working around something not in rotation is actually quite difficult when the backroom fills up, and space is at a premium.
>Crypto niggers and scalpers will keep buying all available cards at any price anywayThis is also dead wrong.
Their intrest is directly proportionate to whatever the crypto market does. When it is down they are infamous for abandoning ship, to the point that it's part of the reason they keep getting kicked out of countries and counties.
They also don't demand just any and all cards avalable at any price. That is retarded and you are exaggerating.
Rest of your post is foolish doom and gloom with no relation to reality.
