You know what you do get to keep? The games Epic gets giving out to bribe people into using their launcher. I’ve amassed over 200 games from them, from which I’ve played maybe 30.

Over 7 years, you’d have to pay $560 to play online on a PS5, assuming they don’t increase the price again. The cheapest PS5, without the disc drive (which is a bad decision if you like cheap games), costs $500.
You can easily build a PC more powerful than a PS5 for $1060.

PS3 I had to get a new controller, but only because the dog ate the analog sticks lmao
I had to replace the Micro USB port in two DS4s. I don’t even blame Sony for it, Micro USB is ass. I do blame them for them getting stick drift later though.
I don’t use the PS5 enough for the controller to break.

- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 7 hours ago:
They shouldn’t use numbers at all tbh. QQVGA, QVGA, VGA, q(uarter)HD, HD, Full HD, QHD, UHD and so on works for all aspect ratios, and you can even specify by adding prefixes like FW (full wide) VGA would be 480p at 16:9. It gets a little confusing cause sometimes the acronyms change (and PAL throws a wrench on everything), but the system works.

If 4k is 4k because the horizontal resolution is around 4000, so you’d think 1080p, with its 1920p-long lines would be 2k. It’s fucked that it isn’t.

Here’s the gut-punch for the typical living room, however. If you’re sitting the average 2.5 meters away from a 44-inch set, a simple Quad HD (QHD) display already packs more detail than your eye can possibly distinguish.
That seems in line with common knowledge? Say you want to keep your viewing angle at ~40º for a home cinema, at 2.5m of distance, that means your TV needs to have an horizontal length of ~180cm, which corresponds to ~75"
For a more conservative 30° viewing angle, at the same distance, you’d need a 55" TV. So, 4K is perceivable at that distance regardless, and 8K is a waste of everyone’s time and money.

Now, to be fair, nucleus it comes from the latin nuculus. It just that it sounds bad and feels bad to say

Start pronouncing it ‘nucular’, there’s no bigger turn off.

Yeah, I didn’t think an OS could feel more skeezy than Windows until I got a Quest 3.
A shame too, cause it’s legitimately great hardware.
