Dude, it's not like frames grow on trees...

I've been a console gamer since the PS1. I've also gamed on computers for way longer than that. I just find the consoles easier, as it's plug and play, and no need to constantly upgrade my computer.

This has been a fact for me until now. Got the PS5 2 years after release, and had a fucking blast with it, while the computer I built 13 years ago is used for other stuff than gaming. It took it's last breath about two months ago.

I then got myself a brand new computer with a RTX4060ti, and I installed RDR2 to see how it compared to the PS4 version, and it blew my mind when I added mods (fucking hell, mods are easier to install today than 15-20 years ago lol). Then I bought Baldurs Gate 3.

The price of the PS5 Pro comes out more expensive than my computer. I'll continue playing some games on the PS5, but the pro can fuck off, and the PS6 will probably never come into my house, as I am done with consoles. I'd rather buy ANOTHER gaming computer and hook it up in the living room.

Nah man, what we need is an AAAAAAA+ game. Price will be $3400 so the company can recuperate the cost of making the game, and everyone will buy it! It's how slaves gamers work, right?

Cool. Now where's my $102 million bonus for reinventing the gaming market?

Want to know what's even more sad about it? He was my best friend for nearly 30 years 😥 I've dropped all contact with him. He also can't face facts that goes against his personal beliefs, stating that the science must be wrong, because it does not fit into his world view - this is in reference to him stating that "100% of the people how transition regrets it". I found science papers showing that 1% regrets it, meaning 1 in 100. He said that it should be illegal to transition becuae of this. I ask "So one of one hundred people regret it, then it should be illegal for everyone?" "Yes"......

He had a girlfriend for some time, around 13 years ago. I met my friend two years ago, and asked him how long they were together. His response "I can't remember. She was just a placeholder girlfriend until I found someone better. You know how it is for us males" and my jaw fucking dropped. I tried for months to get him out of the psychotic thoughts, but it fell on deaf ears, so I told him that he should only contact me again if he ever sees how his world view is wrong.

Rant over lol

Why the fuck would you want "alpha" versions in the military? It's just full of bugs and barely usable.

I have (had) a friend who went full on Jordan Peterson and talked a lot about being an "alpha" male. I told him that I consider myself beta male, as I've learned from my mistakes and was upgraded to beta. He went full on bat shit crazy and told me that thinking like this is definitely not alpha material.

He also can't hold a job (he's 38), and blames all his problems on females. He is not willing to work on himself, as he's the perfect alpha male. Yeah, fuck off you ignorant piece of shit.

Not in Australia! You'll get a bigger fine for growing tobacco than cannabis. Reason: the government is losing taxes on the tobacco.

And more lenses! Come on, we need to cover the entire back with lenses!

Next the police will start raiding AI centers, because they're using so much power, they have to be growing the devils lettuce.

Get a Google TV. Sure, they father days, but at least you don't connect the TV online, which also sends screenshots of what you're watching to the producer...

Control the tv with automations? Now in curious; what automations would you set up on a tv?

Such a good movie! Let's build a snowman!!

No idea. My closest neighbour is 250 m/820 feet away, so not something I need to think about.

I just don't connect it to the network.

We're watching a sinking ship in realtime.

It's the same saying in Norway. Oh, and is it's over the top, it's called "Texas" 🤣

Woops... I meant Disney. And Amazon, for all that matters lol

☠️ sail the 7 seas. I'm not giving anything to Amazon.

I, nor the poster you replied to, never mentioned recycling. Your starting to put things into the discussion that was never there.
