Strategically fucking the people.

What the fuck will be after that? copper?! Fucking greedy bastards need to go
It all started with the enshittification of copper from Ea-Nasir.
AI-Nasir?
No ea-nasir is correct. That mf fucked it all up. Few millenia ago.
Just the greedy bastards?
They're all greedy
What is the fucking scarce resource they're claiming now?
According to the news agency, "Iran struck Saudi Arabia's Jubail petrochemical complex in early April, forcing a halt in production of high-purity polyphenylene ether (PPE) resin—a critical base material used to manufacture PCB laminates."
...I wouldn't be too worried about it. PCBs are made from copper and plastic. I'm not particularly concerned about the economic impact of increased plastic prices.

You know what? I still have a GBA and a GBC with flashcards and both working perfectly. My newly purchased R36S will do the rest.
I'm gonna retire to the world of roms and romhacks and fuck it. I have more games than I will be able to play in my whole life.
Same, between my Steam Deck and Homebrewed 3DS, I have enough games, indies, roms and romhacks to last me the rest of my life and the life of my children and their children.
My DS passcard died, my GBA linker ran out of battery I think (or broke, because juice it up didn't work) 😓
Do they sell these things any more?
Perfect, I was hoping that electronics would get more expensive.
If only fucking arbitrary borders defined by pedophiles and enforced by murderers would just fucking disappear already
Concentration of production capacity is why computers are ridiculously cheap in the first place. This comes with drawbacks when people don't stockpile enough of their critical inputs...
Just in time done badly.
Yep, why have vital resources on your own personal machine when you could access everything on Google/Meta/Oracle/Apple/Microslop's AI cloud? For a nominal lifetime fee of course!
Prices were already going up and supplies were already constrained because the AI demand was pulling so much of the capacity. Iran hitting the petrochemical plant is just adding on to an already bad situation.
Well I'm glad I finally figured out how to make circuit boards at home using a cnc machine.
I hope the price of this will be lowering like the rest.
