I haven’t, that’s the point.
If a Raspi going from $25 to $145, an increase of 5.8x is fine, and a Zero from a decade back being twice the price today, then surely when you go from $10/GB of DDR4 to new shiny modern DDR5, that increase of 5.8x is all fine too. Just buy that decade old DDR4 for double the launch price if you think it’s too expensive.
And from looking at DIMMprice, it’s still “only” around $25/GB, that’s a pure bargain right?
Obviously neither of them are fine and both situations are utterly outrageous.
Uh… You’ve missed some news. https://www.dimmprice.com/

Mr Jonathon Swift over here, it took me a moment to recognize your Proposal was Modest, given Poe’s Law.
Thanks, read too quickly after work and completely misunderstood.
To be fair they weren’t saying they think it’s fine, they were implying that I do. They are obviously aware of inflated prices.
