What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
Rules
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. Use original link
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacks
Any kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.
6. Off-topic tangents

If it's anything like the crypto bubble from a couple years ago, then yeah. eBay should be flooded with used RAM and GPUs.
Crypto bubble?
checks price
Wut?
There was one a while ago, back when mining on GPUs was still viable. I wanna say the GTX 1000 series was still in vogue at the time.
So you mean recession, not bubble
It crashed hard and it crashed fast after a prolonged period of unsustainable growth. Is that not a bubble?

Regardless of what happened to crypto, it was certainly a crypto mining hardware bubble for anyone invested in that.
Correct. It was not a bubble. It is a volitile system that will continue to crash and rise forever.
Not too long ago BTC was hovering around $120K. The price has fallen quite a bit in recent weeks
Not too long ago bitcoin was hovering around $10K. The price has risen astronomically in recent years
Both are true.
Yep. It's not a bubble. It's just volatile. And increasing long-term
