If we all just collectively decided to eat the top one every week, the problem would just sort itself out after a month or so.

Probably so they don't have to declare the milk in the calorie content...

It's a brutal time to be releasing hardware like this.

GPU prices, RAM, SSDs, all inflated through the roof.

This should have been the price of a PS5 Pro, with the performance of a PS5 and it's not even that.

I still want the Frame, but only because my OG Rift died a couple of months back. I really don't want to have to go crawling back to Meta for a Quest 3 when I see the price of the Frame, but I'm not optimistic. They really need a reduced spec Frame that just does the streaming portion. With RAM and GPU prices as they are, that would at least make some sense.

Mental innit? First gen I've ever seen where price of hardware went up...

I had a fucked wisdom tooth out, and as he grabbed it with the pliers I heard it crunch and collapse on itself and the dentist went "oh..."

Which isn't a noise you want to hear from a dentist, but again he did the job.

Probably, but given that there are reams of files telling us the sort of things he's done, and nobody does a damn thing about it, you have to ask yourself why would he care?

Sega got out of hardware and it's probably the only reason they're still around.

This shit has got greedy hubris written all over it. They've seen the Neo Geo revival and rubbed their little hands together thinking of charging $49.99 a go for Sonic the Hedgehog.

Maybe we already have, and we're the AI agents designed to fool them into thinking they're still in the real world.

Hope the real us are doing well somewhere.

No, it's the joke they wish they'd thought of for the show.

It was originally written as Pepe Silva, but Charlie Day kept saying it wrong.

Well there is that, but it also gets them potentially a whole bunch of extra info about you, and lets them link you up with data from other sites they may own or share data with.

It does tell you what you're about to give them, but 25+ years in the industry has taught me only too well that nobody ever reads anything ever.

Yeah, that's what happens when you triple the price of everything.

2TB drives were about £100 a few years ago and now they're close to £400. That's a fuckin' no from me dog.

Hey ChatGPT, can you make this "article" about 3-4 times longer so I can get paid?

Well he'd go with Betty.

But he'd be thinking of Wilma.

Yeah, because you were thinking of all the ways technology could have been awesome, while what they were working on was making it funnel all the world's wealth to a handful of people.

But what if the bytes run out? What then?

I buy physical anyway, and have never had an issue just going into a shop and picking up a game on day one.

That's from hitchhiker's guide, probably more a gen X thing.

Millennials had 420.

That top one is the best. Like something from Evil Dead.

Do people even bother pirating this shit? Surely they just use one of the many free alternatives that do exactly the same job?
