I just spotted these Newegg "Back-to-School" memory and storage deals in my email. I'm not familiar with some of the brands, but the prices seem reasonable considering the current component crisis...

Hetzner increased prices and made people unhappy and some even mad at them. We're living interesting times. As expected they will not stay alone.
Here we go, now it's OVH

You know the #rampocalypse is real when your kid's narrative play now revolves around acquiring "priceless memory" when it was gems with magical properties two months ago.

I own a #SteamDeck, and I am considering buying a ROG XBox Ally X, not because I want it now, but because I feel that with current market conditions, either I get it now, or won't be able to get anything like it until the #RAMPocalypse ends.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux/117048378636440476
Honest question: where is the ‘invisible hand of the free market’ in all this? With all this demand for RAM, why aren’t manufacturers stepping up production to meet demand? What’s the bottleneck?

@kkolakowski usually I feel like developer experience gets neglected by Apple (just look at App Store Connect and all the Xcode quirks).
However, I'm wondering wether that improvement was driven by UX design instead of #RamPocalypse aka. #RAMageddon -

Wow, dieser ganze Wahnsinn mit den Preisen bei PC-Teilen ist inzwischen echt nicht mehr nur auf SSDs, RAM und Grafikkarten beschränkt!
Hatte letzten Oktober noch nebenbei 2x neue Seagate IronWolf Pro 16TB HDDs für meinen PC gekauft. Kosteten damals noch ca. 355€ pro Stück. Das identische Modell ST16000NT001 kostet inzwischen, je nach Händler, um die 700€, also praktisch das Doppelte! So langsam ist das alles echt nicht mehr lustig! Mehh! 😕

Oh, wow.. die Preise für SSDs gehen auch im Sommer 2026 IMMERNOCH durch die Decke. Ich bin immernoch froh, meine 8TB NVMe damals im November '25 für 810 EUR gekauft zu haben, auch wenn es damals schon eigentlich sauteuer war. Aber die aktuellen Preise?! Holy cow! 😅

If you happen to be looking for DDR5 RAM Modules today (2 x 16GBytes 6000 M/T) then the lowest price in the UK so far is from Silicon Power directly from their site for £ 348.87 with coupon code:
Prices for RAM are still going up and don't look likely to fall any time soon 🙁

Ostres, ADATA diu que l'escassetat de memòries pot durar 10 anys.
Tant aguantarà l'estafa econòmica de la IA? Jo no ho crec pas.

Apple va demanar permís al govern dels EUA per comprar memòria als xinesos de CXMT. Ara els legisladors de EUA volen prohibir els xips de memòria xinesos.

On my way to #emfcamp2026 with 3x laptops for the exchange, plenty of ram in them but no hard drives (ran out of time to wipe them)
Hope they get sued for shenanigans, and that no one separates them from their chargers!

#LukeMiani hitting the nail on the head calling out the multi layered #corruption behind the current #rampocalypse. Consumers are the ones getting screwed.

@gnome Please also include in #accessibilty poor folks who only have access to old #lowspec computers. I love the #gnome design but often have to install a distro using xorg with #jwm or #icewm for these folks. Please have options to reduce gnome memory usage to run like 300MB or lower. Lowest Ive been able to achieve is around 900MB on Alpine which was still a lot for my cousin's 3GB RAM laptop.

Finished moving my #chimeraLinux dev stuff from a GMKtec NucBox M5 Plus (AMD Ryzen™ 7 5825U) #minipc to a GMKtec NucBox K11 (AMD Ryzen™ 9 8945HS).
It's an order of magnitude faster even with the slow ass 32GB Kingston FURY Impact DDR5-4800 CL38 I'm running in that box currently because of the #rampocalypse
I did away with the full local copy of the package repository and now just NFS mount directly from my local chimera mirror server. 10 Gbit LAN is fast enough 😎.

Donald, if we make the bad guys in our highly rated "Silo" streaming Apple TV show Iranians, but also make it seem ambiguous because we still want Iranians to buy the iPhone, will you let us use CXMT blacklisted China-based memory chips?
Oops, sorry if this was a S03E01 spoiler.

Dear Valve: Sell the Steam Machine bare-bones - no RAM and no SSD, so people have the option to thief it from an old laptop or something. Your Super NES isn't worth the price rn.

The RAMpocalyspse is certainly making the job of Linux evangelist easier these days. A good friend has a business and needed a computer for the office but was shocked by the retail prices now.
He knows that I rehabilitate old PCs and asked if I had any spares. So I set him up with a MintBook Air from 2012. He's stoked. 💚 It's his first experience with Linux & I can't wait to get his feedback. 💻️

RE: https://mastodon.social/@daringfireball/116824399079277609
"we expect another doubling [of RAM prices] by the fall of 2027".
I guess it's time to stop waiting for prices to come down. Time to buy what I need or plan to do without indefinitely.
EDIT: time to buy RAM, VRAM, SSDs. I'm not interested in Xboxen.

If Apple gets to buy memory chips from a blacklisted China-based company, that means we all can, right? RIGHT?!
