Ruining the PC market for consumers on purpose so people will think it's cheaper to rent computers than to own.
In the future, you will lease your computer and not own it, just as you are told to do by the billionaires who steal your pay.
I remember when people claimed that Socialism meant people would own nothing and like it. Turns out, they were actually describing capitalism. Granted, I don't like one bit of this.
In the future you will connect to a corporate owned terminal and use an online hosted OS, where your files are kept in their cloud ecosystme.
Yep cloud providers definitely came up with the AI boom in a roundabout conspiracy to end PCs. Total direct chain there.
