    This is the future that capitalists want. When you can no longer afford components because they hoarded them all, you will have to rent computers from their cloud. Dont worry? It’s all real and legal because it’s justified by the humungous next step in humanity known as AI which was so important that we had to buy up all the computing resources. It’s so good guys it’s important that none of you be able buy any computers that you can use without the supervision of the AI cloud services. Trust us.
