Because unlike in your head, the real world has costs for erecting a logistics pipeline.

Diverting from the pipeline that works for them is in your interest not theirs.

First world whiners; this graphics card QQing is approaching “I can’t get a haircut.” levels of cringe. HN thinks it’s so much more respectable and mature than Reddit, though. Still a bunch of first worlders moaning about reality not serving them just so.

This is how your culture has always worked; any one of us is not especially important to it. You want to roll that way? Put up a website to do so, work a deal with nVidia or AMD to be that pipeline.
