I bought the PS4 Pro as well, because it didn’t feel like a bad value. It felt like a mid gen refresh where we got some extra power for no extra cost. Sony thinks players care about the extra performance for another $200, which is ridiculous. Up until this generation, consoles got cheaper over time as they become cheaper to produce. This is the first generation (that I remember) where the cost has stayed the same/gone up.

I fully agree that at $500, this would be a no-brainer for those wanting the extra power. A $350 base console would be a good pairing.

The thing is, they won’t be able to sell a Mount like this again in the future. This is kind of a “break glass” type of situation.

It’s going to sell like crazy. It’s not just that it’s a Mount, but it also has an auction house and mailbox that you can use anywhere at any time. The only other mount that has the AH is no longer attainable regularly, only on rare occasions for gold cap.

I am going to get it, but I’m going to use my gold in game to convert to bnet balance.

Everyone that does frontend works with JS/TS and it’s becoming popular on the backend as well. Definitely the most popular language IMO.

Could always install Bazzite on it, which would fix the UI issues and bring it on par with the Steam Deck.

I guess I usually skipped the race part, because I don’t remember that nearly as much as the guy walking up to turn on the lights.

Thanks. I remember seeing that thread on Mastodon, but I hadn’t associated it with his actions. I think open logs are good and if someone acts like that as a moderator, it is best if they step down.

Would be nice if they would implement a sponsor block type feature, but I doubt we will ever see that happen.

Can you provide some more information about him abusing his powers here?

No doubt it will come to both consoles. I just wonder what upgrades there will be on the new console.

What would you use instead?

The person telling the story could always tell lies, which would mean his brother would only tell the truth.

Great when they let you get into position first. Trying to adjust around the cat, not so much…

Seems like a way of saying deleting the app without deleting your data. I guess most users must not be regularly pruning unused apps to make this a desired feature.

I think the bubble is coming too. The question is how much it will take for normal users to be done with them. The current Lemmy user base is more focused on tech, open source, and/or privacy than the average Internet user, which is why we already abandoned Reddit.

I think having to pay for access to these sites might be the biggest issue, as many people see the Internet as something that should be free.

I do find that the days I need it the most it’s slower than molasses.

Google has one advantage over other Android device makers. They make profit off of the Play Store at a much higher rate than they do from hardware sales. If this change brings more people over from iOS to Android, it will be an overall win for them.

I wish they would have at least gone with the 8 Gen 1+. I’m curious to see how much this costs, because it seems to have a lot of good stuff included.
