        …make your own. Destroy it and remake it with a new IP once every few months, use headscale or something to make managing it easier.

        I am this petty, absolutely.

        (Or just get everything now, I mean. You got a month. Sorry if you didn’t buy a few hard drives when Trump got elected. Some of us saw the writing on the wall.)

          Oh believe me I have. 2 HDDs and 1 SSD. I’ve also been snatching up DVDs of shows from second hand places since streaming services will become untenable soon

      Unfortunately, the only hardware component you can actually download is RAM. And increased hardware prices are going to be the primary cost factor.

        Then it isn’t so much playing games, it’s the death of the entire industry. If no one can play anything, there’s nothing to sell.

        Neato!

        Guess I’ll have to keep my steam deck in good working order and enjoy gaming in a tribute sense.

        The funny thing is, I believe RAM is actually one component that isn’t manufactured as much in China (compared to other components).
