It's nice how AI datacenters step by step swallow virtually all available hardware resources to provide digital services to users who won't be able to use those services due to the lack of available hardware.
Hardware will be available, silly. ^†^
You will have the "freedom" ^‡^ to choose from the hardware vendor* you want. Like always! ^‡‡^
^†^ ^For^ ^$49.95^ ^per^ ^month.^
^Terms and conditions and government social score apply.^
^‡‡^ ^Authorized and approved by the department of national security and intelligence gathering agencies and the billionaire technofascist bros clubh^
