Also, for GPU prices to come down. Right now the AI garbage is eating a lot of the GPU production, as well as wasting a ton of energy. It sucks. Right as the crypto stuff started dying out we got AI crap.

GPU price hikes are causing problems outside of the gaming industry, too. Imaging, scientific research, astronomy...

Might be, but I somehow don't picture an astronomer complaining about GPU prices on lemmy...

There are actually a ton of people in research and academia on here.

Or at least there were. I don't know what the current state of the Lemmy community is.
