New details reveal that former NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang used circular financing to fund AI startups and absorb excess TSMC wafers and memory rather than letting GPU prices drop
This isn’t a suffering competition, you’re being ridiculous. You can say that about literally anything anybody complains about. No, while the things happening in Palestine are fucking horrific, “but worse things happen” doesn’t invalidate other peoples’ problems.
Frankly you sound like an ass even comparing the two.
Yes, it is a first world problem. That doesn’t invalidate it. Fun fact, first world problems are still problems! If you had said that in response to people pretending the inability to buy a graphics card is as bad as a kid having their leg blown off, I would have no issue with your comment. But nobody is doing that, so it’s a stupid ass argument.
An orphan, is by definition, alive. No one talks about “dead orphans”. Bruce Wayne isn’t a “live orphan”.
Anyway, my comment was about the privilege Western gamers have in 2026.
“NOAAWW! You can’t take away my high-end video cards! I have the RIGHT to play video games at a reasonable price!”
Imagine explaining your vast suffering under these filthy capitalists from your watertight, HVAC controlled domicile. Said suffering is way overblown on lemmy.
I hope you think of people with no legs when you stub your toe in the dark.
(Invalidating anyone’s suffering on the basis that someone else out there has it worse would mean that nobody else is justified to suffer than the absolutely most miserable. Suffering is an inescapable facet of the human condition, but it doesn’t mean we shoudn’t try reducing it.)
NAILED. IT. I’d love all the people who feel they have a right to video cards explain that to a Palestinian orphan.

gaming graphics card scalping is literally a first world luxury “problem”.

Why should anyone explain that to a dead kid?

If the parents die it’s an orphan. If the orphan then dies it is a dead orphan.
Chiming in with “there is greater misery in the world” is so tonedeaf. Yes, we all know. What does this has to do with the Problem that is discussed?
Go to therapy if all that is laying so heavy on you that you have to make every discussion about what’s on your mind.
