The snarky nonsense is not helpful, or appropriate, for this forum. Do better.
Computers also became ridiculously cheap in real dollars over the years, in the meanwhile education, healthcare, housing all shot up faster than overall inflation.
It.... literally isn't? the cost of computers are lower today (in today's dollars) than they were in the 1980s and 1990s?

Obviously it's not about just computers. The point is we spend more on this stuff than we did in 1980. That is a fact.
Items like smartphones are dramatically cheaper than the tech people bought in the 1990s. It replaced your home phone, video camera, answering machine, alarm clock, clock, etc. You are not correct at all, the things that have gone up in price are housing, education, health expenses, etc. Not electronics.
The point is that people are choosing to have fewer children, and it's absolutely not because of the cost of computers or cell phones.
