I gave it a 20 minutes try, since it seems not just one person is convinced this Gamer Nexus isn't just another influencer. They seem knowledgeable about hardware, I give you that. But then when they start going into markets, economies and geopolitics, that's when I start roll my eyes, and continuing listening to that is like taking hardware advice from Paris Hilton.

Again, don't let influencers give you the idea that just because they happen to know topic X well, they suddenly know all the areas and subjects that are slightly related to those areas well too.

Yeah, wasn’t impressed with GN’s theories about the politics/motivations/etc behind these big market shifts. It’s much simpler, there’s limited supply capacity and a more lucrative use of the hardware now. The market will find a new equilibrium.

Gell-Mann Amnesia is a shockingly hard thing to fight against I’m afraid.
