For the Capitalist crowd, YES it is the biggest cost. The next is energy. Imagine a world where your research and development is all AI and the production is all automated by robots. Instant product to sell to the masses who has no money because no one is working.

When X or Aliexpress is open on a tab even if they are not the active tab or the browser is minimize I can't change the input device or output device because they are using the audio device even if they are not playing sounds. Do they use it to stream data or they use for other purpose?

New comment by ezconnect in "Surely the crash of the US economy has to be soon"

ezconnect — Sat, 31 Jan 2026 11:57:39 +0000

The next crash will probably be a race for assets or hard assets for the people who can afford it. It means the stock market will reach all time high, gold all time high and land prices skyrocketing as people try to escape from the dollar currency. The US President will still be proud the economy is still good because the stock market is at all time high and the people are rich because their homes are at all time high valuation but the middle class can barely afford food because there are no available jobs that pays good enough.
