After a few seconds, popup asking me to allow ads on the site. Ya, sure.

Back to Sam, his memory is not as good as it was before, money gets in the eyes and vision get muddy and foggy.

He's right. Most people don't use much of the RAM in their PC. Having 16GB or 32GB as standard on a PC when Apple's 8GB M1 demonstrated you can do a huge amount of work with much less proves it. Moving the majority of RAM to data centers where it's utilization could be much higher would be a more efficient use of resources.

There are still reasons for people to have a lot locally, but it shouldn't be the default.

There's a meme for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heartbreaking:_The_Worst_Perso...

To extend this line of thought ..

Whats better if all the RAM, CPU and storage of phones went to DCs. People are more productive without phones. They work instead of consuming content. The tens of thousands of hours lost (opportunity cost), even at a minimum wage is >$1 million over a lifetime.
