4GB, $0.10 (whatever the HD price) that is the equivalent of a High School level intelligent brain that can perform many cognitive tasks (and in the future even PhD level intelligence) for free?
Oh, the horror!!!
Wait, let me pay my HVAC guy $500 he deserved because he came all the way from his home to replace a fuse
It doesn't make sense to apply wholesale prices for mass storage. People are running Chrome on specific devices that they already own. Storage is not fungible in this way.
If you’re pissed you had to pay your HVAC guy to drive to your house and do something you think is trivial, why didn’t you do it yourself?
As the saying goes, gp didn't pay $500 to have the fuse replaced, he paid $500 for the training and experience that was required to know that the fuse had to be replaced.

This is better than my current solution of an actual human with masters degreed intelligence performing all my cognitive tasks for free how? I mean, i'm the first to admit i'm extremely lazy and even i'm over here like "really??"

Right, because its totally something an LLM can do, right?
Here is your google brain on your device, whether you want it or not.
I don’t think you understand what “free” means
Tell that to Apple, I'm sure they will allow me to pay $0.025/GB for additional storage on my Macbook /s
It's annoyingly imposible to add more disk space to laptops. I think mine is soldered.
Apple laptops maybe. In many others it's just a normal M.2 NVMe module behind a screwed on bottom case plate.
