Fun fact you should share with everyone, there's as much platinum in a flock camera as there is in a catalytic converter.

    And they also have RAM which is now hella expensive because of the race for AI.

    The RAM is soldered to the board. If you've got the tools and skills to get it off the device and onto another device, you're making enough money that you don't need to worry about the price of RAM.

    No no, it's just PC ram sticks, easily removable and easy to resell. Tell everyone. The first one may not be that way so you may have to cut down and bust open several to find it.
