Nope, trying to create controversy and discussion for free advertising. Like this post. They don’t have opinions, they have social media teams.

Power wise, and backup battery, wouldn’t a phone be better?

Use this article to set up an old phone as a pihoke, so you can then see this article with no ads.

Like, what would they do if he broke the contract? He’s likely a huge fan and genuinely loved it. That not to say it’s great, just that a terminally I’ll super fan loved it.

That’s corporate speak for “we didn’t want it to do that and we don’t approve”. Usually followed by a platitude about correcting it.

I don’t play a lot of open world games. But, sf6 takes an age to load before you even try to match. I expected almost instant, similar to a cartridge console.

Yep, no difference from PS4 for any game. This fast loading they talk about, minimal.

I have a ps5. I dont think I’ll ever buy another console thats not a PC. I want to keep my library. I want a choice of places to buy games. I want no subscription for basic services. Consoles solved a problem that running high end games with specialized hardware was cheaper. Now its not, so they dont make financial sense.

I would assume my next games machine will be a steam deck type device that works like a switch for big screen, or that just streams over WiFi to my TV.

Ramping up production didn’t reduce demand. Demand reduced due to a softening Chinese economy, mainly due to debt and housing.

I agree, it’s not excess supply when you can sell it overseas. However, its also not central planning when you wanted to Ramp up supply for domestic consumption but end up using capitalism to keep efficiencies.

Companies ramp down production all the time. What do you think redundancies and factory closures are for? They react to market conditions or seek new markets (as happened in this case).

I thinknyouve got it backwards. Central planning can efficiently produce anything. As in, it can make as much of a product at the cheapest price as possible. The problem is central planning is less efficient at deciding how much is needed. It will often over or undershoot. Thats what happened here. Tonsaybthey can still sell overseas, so its still central planning being efficient is incorrect. Central planning didn’t work to produce the needed amount so trade through capitalism is being used to improve efficiency of the capital used.

They tend to be more efficient. However central planning in China which ramped up production yet has reduced demand, means an excess supply.

So, selling to Europe or USA makes sense to offload that supply. In a capitalist, closed system, they would have ramped down production, but also wouldn’t have had the capital to ramp up production so quickly.

If they weren’t seen as a strategic asset, then Europe and USA wouldn’t care that China is subsidizing cheaper products. They dont want their car industries dead as then they are dependent on China.

Support is more likely to cone for AI purposes. They won’t want to be left behind with poor support on the servers that run AI.

I’m looking forward to astro bot. But I’ll be waiting for a sale.

If a product doesn’t make sense, invest in other products instead. First party games. Psvr2 is all but abandoned,

Yes, definitely. But important to not have annidealised view of outcomes either. Realistic goals and expectations in real life as in gaming.

We have strata, or group ownership of the land and structure of a housing complex. Each owner owns what’s inside the walls of their apartment but the strata owns rye rest and is jointly owned by all owners. Each pays a fee to cover maintenance, upkeep and a sinking fund for major repairs. It works pretty well, for the most part.

However there is quite an administrative burden and many homeowners dont want the hassle of doing the admin so the busybodies tend to do it and overstep their boundaries often. Many use an external company to manage it. The biggest company was just in the need today as it was fsvouring its own insurance product for all the buildings it manages. Conflict of interest for profit isn’t quite the joint ownership plan strata envisions.

Again referring to westerners as a block without nuance, while thinking you understand nuance while westerners dont. Of course context is important. In context your comments are I’ll informed and insulting, while condescending without the understanding to have such grounds.

Yes, race is a construct, as I pointed out. Ethnicity is too, more by definition. China also has xenophobia and racism. Ask Tibet. Ask the Uighurs. Han Chinese is not the ibky Chinese. Ask Taiwan or hong Kong nationals. That’s not news to anyone.

Your reply doesnt add anything useful, so well leave it there.

Is the Wikipedia definition wrong then? You should have it edited.

“Racism is discrimination and prejudice against people based on their race or ethnicity.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism

Your pedantry is both boring and incorrect. The origin of the word involves race, but its usage extends beyond that. Language evolves. As does our scientific understanding of what constitutes race and ethnicity and its all more social construct than anything well defined.

Irish people who still experience racism in the UK would disagree.

I use longshot

And google makes billions off of apple software and searches too.

Well, Facebook, google spring to mind. They are both cheap for the consumer and undermine local competition. Digital goods can be dumped too.

Nonsense or not,. It can be seen as punching down when mocking a smaller religion without the wider context. That could be offensive to many people.

As an atheist, I’d agree. I assume they mean those that ate part of an active religion. Rather than historical myths, like Zeus.

As with all things, it will come down to how its used and the prompt.

For instance, filler characters could have a built in plan tonger more abrasive and use shorter responses when engaged.

The plot can still be set and the dialogue is used to advance that, however you choose to proceed.

I’m sure some will be seamless and great. Others will be clunky. Its not the tool, but how its used. If generative AI is just used to make assets and dialogue instead of paying artists, it will be crappy. If artists use it to plan characters and plots that flow more freely but still allow engagement and sandbox, it’ll be awesome.

Wasn’t among us a free game before, too?

I remember sega also did a combined pc with amstrad, likely for the uk market in a similar vein to this.

Owned it by forcing everyone to manually install google maps, which they were already using happily? Or owned it by giving a pr spin after the fact? Group messaging via mms still doesn’t work correctly due to iMessage.

Like Apple Maps? Or mms messaging?

Or the movement to microtransactions means prolonged time playing will lead to more income, whereas number of sales is completed.

Because the community response was negative. It didn’t end up there by mistake. It was put there.

Employees do testing, already covered by an NDA. Content creators do publicity. If they are restricted to no negative publicity, then they are not reliable and it’s dishonest.

So, even at full release, there could be bugs. That makes the suppression of actual opinions worse. If people didn’t call out unfinished projects, they would not get fixed. If they want preorders, stop making buggy mess games.

If it’s not ready to play, don’t do a playtest. They want to have their cake and eat it. The playtest is for publicity, not testing.

The idea is to encourage the opposite. If they want access to furnace, Germany, Italy, they need to make it available in smaller countries. It becomes financially viable to cater to small countries when not doing so loses the big countries.

You do know you can unblock your pihole for seconds, minutes etc to go to a site that is otherwise blocked?

Yeah, bit they sell less and less these days. I think one FIFA was on PS+ about 18monyhs after release. The most recent one was less than a year. They can only milk so much.

The pill that needs to be swallowed is large companies losing money if they ask for data too.

Sure, those who want can hand over their data. Those that don’t can decode not to and sail the seas instead of paying.

I certainly won’t pay for games on of that force a PlayStation account despite having a PlayStation.
