Oh when will China start making HDDs and SSDs and GPUs and CPUs
PLEASE China PLEASE flood the market with cheap, top shelf computer parts that will force Western corporations to lower their prices or go bankrupt when they don't
They do make hardware in most of those categories, actually, but they don't sell much of it direct to consumer in the West. And unfortunately, the way things are going, they're going to be able to get better prices for it from the AI-entranced idiots too.
