Unfortunately though, the worst of the year comes from the companies driving the entire computing industry: NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, and "AI" companies like OpenAI, Google, and others, have damaged the ability of consumers to afford home computers as they've shuffled everything into data centers, LLMs, and "the cloud." In this way, the Disappointment PC ends up actually just being a server sucking in all of the RAM and charging users monthly for the privilege of processing data. In addition to the AI companies, we talk about ASUS' botnet and vulnerability, problems, ASRock's 9800X3D-murdering motherboards, the DRAM (RAM) memory pricing situation, and when NVIDIA sponsorship recipient Bloomberg copyright struck us.
