Oh for fucks sake you incompetent morons.
Americans right now
that will actually lower prices in other countries. good news!
US needs DRAM more than DRAM manufacturers need the US market. Plus, no way Trump’s AI buddies who is buying up the DRAM supply will agree to pay the tariffs.
Yes please.
Signed Europe.
I really don’t see the issue -tariffs on U.S. imports just mean fewer chips sold in the U.S. and more available for the rest of the world, right?
It’s an issue for people in the US but at this point I am ok with it
Does that help people elsewhere specifically or are you just happy to see us have issues atp
Yes
God I love watching the bully shoot itself in the face
I love how Trump has exactly one note to play and he just wails on it at every opportunity
And it’s not something new. They’re recordings of him from the 80’s saying that the US got full of Japanese cars because of the lack of tariffs
That’s not true, often be threatened to invade places. Two notes.
But he just learned “whole milk” is spelled with a W, so he is learning new things.
Yup. I expect nothing less from a silver spoon moron that daddy bribed officials for his “prestigious” BS in economics.
Relevant?
Less pc gaming if less pc parts… I guess?
Then why don’t folks fabricate their parts?
Maybe should have been posted in a lemmy.us community. This .ca is Canada isn’t it?
That’s for the instance. This community is open for anyone and is the most active pcgaming community on Lemmy
Then good news for you, if you are in Canada, global demand is about to go down a bit, and the prices will go down for us non-Americans in a couple of months. More PC gaming for us (🎉 I guess)
How can he post it there when someone has to set up that website first? This is a lemmy instance hosted in Canada, nothing wrong with being away from the bigger ‘centralized’ instances and posting something gaming relevant.
I wish your comment wasn’t downvoted as it is fair.
While this community is hosted on our Canadian instance, I believe that it’s still fair to post here as we (for better or for worse, currently worse) share close borders with the US and in the PC parts marketspace; generally whatever happens in the US tends to have effects up here as well.
Extras:
Funnily enough in this case however; Trump’s decision will likely make markets outside the US better, Why?: well American companies themselves will likely redirect incoming parts to other nations as the tarrif cost will be difficult to bear in such short notice.
- we saw this happen during Trump’s initial tarrif snafu and we’re probably gonna see this happen…again. What a fucking moron.
For my American friends, this really blows and I’m sorry :/
For those who I know, when I’ve got time I’ll try to calculate if it’s worth shipping parts into the US from Canada. It’s so stupid that THIS is the timeline we’re living in.
No it’s not a fair comment, it completely misunderstands how Lemmy, Piefed and the rest of the Fediverse works.
It’s like complaining about Canadian news being posted on Reddit.com, because Reddit is a US website.
Or complaining about introverts being on Piefed.social.
Canada can make a genocide in profits if they open a fab and sell RAM.
