    They turn power into destroyed environment, by attempting to calculate an answer to questions like “why does two of my toes smell worse than the others?”.

      Extra credit for using “does” instead of “do”, you really managed to capture the essence of this Great Age of Stupidity. 😆

      Far worse friend. Mass surveillance and record keeping so the regime can never be toppled.

      Gotta store the data retrieved from flocks and your cars inside video cameras somewhere. All so it can be alalyzed to put a target on you if you speak out against the regime, then video and photo evidence created to throw you in jail for a crime you never did.

      This is reality , as nuts as it sounds. Truly an awful time to be alive! But we have iphones now, yay.

        It’s not for storage. Storage is cheap, low power, and abundant. It’s for processing.

          Its both. Seen the price of HDDs lately? They’ve tripled since last year. All a plan so you can own nothing. Capitalism end game.

            Hard drives have gone up, but far from tripled.

            Solid state drives have about doubled, tripled if you’re looking for new high end Samsung drives.

            RAM was hit the hardest.

        Don’t forget that all this data will also be used to predict your actions with extreme accuracy, so they can round you up before you do anything.
