He can rent ram from me if he thinks it's so terrible, it's the best option for those who need compute after all. I'll rent a VM with 16GB of RAM to him for let's say $1000 a month. Go ahead Sam, it's the best utilization after all. For $5,000 a month you can have a part time "spot" instance with a GPU.
Oh but I don't work like Nvidia, Sam, you get the same terms we do with subscriptions. You miss one payment, one payment doesn't clear, you're cut off.
That sounds about fair for how us consumers have been treated.
Missed payments should be a suspension with a fine, plus late fee, plus convenience fee, plus admin fee, plus intrest on the late payment, plus reinstatement fee.
I've got 32GB of RAM that sits mostly unused in my main PC. I've got another micro PC with 16GB (I think) that hasn't been on for year. Laptop has only 8GB but that hasn't been turned on for sic months.
Hoping this makes Sam upset.
