What do you want VC to do?

You didn’t bring a plan.

Actual reason: SBC retro handheld consoles now run Linux and people are using them to play steam indie games. The China holiday had some blow out pricing.

Food, water, then the RNG is solved by large N.

Was it a knifes edge at times? Sure. Was it abundant at times? Also true.
