You know that sinking feeling when a customer wants to return a device because it "mysteriously" stopped working right after the warranty expired? And you're sitting there like "yeah buddy, that's not a bug, that's a feature." Hardware prices have gone absolutely bonkers lately—GPUs cost more than a used car, RAM sticks are priced like fine jewelry, and don't even get me started on SSDs during the shortage years. So when customers start asking for RMAs on their "unexpectedly" broken hardware that conveniently failed right when they'd need to upgrade anyway, you can't help but wonder if the universe is just really into capitalism. The manufacturers engineered these things to last juuuust long enough to make you think they're reliable, but not long enough that you won't need to buy the next generation. It's the circle of tech life, and it's beautifully cynical.
