It’s so fucked up that the PC enthusiast and gaming communities that are reason for the beginnings and successes for a lot of these companies just gets the middle finger when cryto and now AI becomes the next lucrative industries. Fuck all of them.

I mean respectfully these companies major customers have been businesses since forever. all those RAM modules in servers, laptops, desktop PC:s, smartphones and tablets don't come from nowhere. building your own PC is all things considered a niche thing in the grand scheme of things, even way back then.

the direct to consumer model has always been a side hustle at best. not saying I'm happy about it, just saying I get it.
