I was momentarily confused that this article is pretty much the script of a YT video by Hardware Unboxed I saw recently, but then I noticed that he is literally the author.
While all these developments point in a very worrying direction, I think there are some positives to this: Fewer performance gains means longer upgrade cycles, longer support windows and less pressure on consumers to keep soending money on upgrades (although the eventual upgrade is now way more expensive).
Crucially, Russia uses the same Iranian-designed Shahed drones that Iran is deploying now. And Ukraine offered the US assistance for defending against them already last August. https://www.axios.com/2026/03/10/us-ukraine-anti-drone-offer

It’s the part in the video where you can see the Linux Desktop.
Now that’s the kind of industry secrets I opened this thread for.
I have no doubt that the companies will keep high margins and incentivize people to keep spending, but the customers have a choice when to upgrade their hardware and I believe based on these developments that they will choose to upgrade less frequently than they used to.
