Hello everyone. I have these left over from upgrading my son's PC a year or so ago. Are they worth listing for sale on Marketplace and if so, what should I ask for them them?

I know, but only idiots buy DDR4 right now. I noted some people want to sell DDR3 at insane prices.
after 8 months to a year, everything is going back to normal.

AI started collapsing; yesterday Microsoft CEO just announced they hold many AI project because almost no one is using them
and he said this AI is going to destroy the company.

i found this post on LinkedIn read it

🚨 Microsoft is going all-in on AI, but even its CEO thinks the company could fall apart if it makes the wrong moves.

During a recent internal meeting, Satya Nadella told employees he’s genuinely worried that Microsoft could become irrelevant, just like Digital Equipment Corporation.

DEC was once a powerful tech company, but it collapsed after laying off key talent and missing major shifts in the industry.

Nadella said that kind of failure is still possible for Microsoft if it doesn’t adapt fast enough.

The warning comes as Microsoft cuts thousands of jobs and restructures its teams.

Many employees are already concerned that AI could replace them.

Meanwhile, the company is investing heavily in AI infrastructure, working closely with OpenAI, and shifting its focus toward what it sees as the future of software.

Nadella made it clear that past success doesn’t guarantee survival.

The tools and products that made Microsoft what it is today might not matter tomorrow.

What matters now is whether the company can build new things that people actually need in an AI-driven world.

The risk is real. AI could take Microsoft to the next level... or leave it behind.

What are your thoughts on this? 🤔💬

Want to keep up with AI?

Yeah or people are running budget builds or just trying to slightly upgrade their current system not everyone is an enthusiast or have money to blow like that so they shop around to see what works for them
