So when I work with the procurement department to make accurate cost estimates based on tariffs, specifically, that's just a hallucination. Good thing I have Internet trolls to snap me out of it.

    Tariffs on RAM and semiconductors haven’t even started yet you turkey lol.

    As I said, RAM prices have exploded all over the world. Trumps tariffs don’t affect other countries. They exploded BEFORE any tariffs were announced. The announced tariffs haven’t even begun being enforced yet lol

    Bullshit. There's been 20-25% tarrifs on ALL goods from China, Mexico, and Canada.

    It's NOT just ram, even though that is the major contributor currently, and American companies still buy shit that is tarrifed. It all gets passed down. I design PCBs and buy electronics/parts/computers/network infrastructure for a living. It's been a constant issue. So anyway, good times, by forever.
