The best time to buy is now. I think unless everything will return to "normal" after ai crash there won't be cheap current hardware for some time, maybe ever.
I'm really hoping someone says to me they'd like to sell a PC second hand that I could cannibalise. I'm probably not the only one here hoping.
or.. get this... abandon it all. PC dies? don't replace it. phone died? fuck it. cancel your Internet after your devices are done.
companies want your business and tell you you HAVE to use their services online? fuck them too.
I'm at a point, where the internet is broken from corporate bullshit and kinda just wanna abandon it all. tf are these companies gonna do if everyone just leaves. Infact, who cares what they will do. let em all burn
I wish this was realistically possible. But my computer and my phone are critical to me making money and surviving in this modern world. Moreso than a car.
