I wish all the computer parts companies would only release new products when they are definitively better rather than making them on a schedule no matter what. I don't want to buy this year's 1080p gaming CPU and GPU combo for more than I spent for the last one with the same capabilities, I want the next series of the same part to be capable of more damn it.

Every *flation seems to exist solely to make me sad and miserable...

Lifeboat/Life jacket inflation is pretty much always good. Airbags cause harm going off early.
Then for deflation, a person’s ego can be deflated for good reasons, maybe.

That's what happens when some in society are able to "print" as much money as they damn well please and the rest of us have to work for it ...
