  • PS Plus is $80 a year for the basic and $160 a year for the ultra premium with like 300+ games. And they give you 3 free games a month even on basic. And if you buy a game, you can share the game with a friend and play online together with the same copy at the same time. With steam sharing one of you has to be offline on that game.

    At $600 for the system and $80 a year that’s going to take over 6 and a half years before you hit the $1000 mark.

    I have PC and PS5 and am in the middle of making cheaper PCs to get my friends to finally jump ship from PS’s BS and I can tell you absolutely with 100 percent certainty that the guy is right. It is not cheaper. It is way more expensive.

    Not sure why he got down voted for that truth.

    I’m resorting to making BC 250 builds for my friends (basically will pay a subscription cost through electric now but progress is progress) and it still isn’t cheaper for what you get with PlayStation.

    But fuck them though killing off physical and throwing their weight behind ESA to try and make hosting your own game servers illegal and just years of anti consumer bullshit has made me intent on leaving them for good after this year.



  • Yes they were using AI assisted headers for their emails because they were short staffed for a bank holiday in their country.

    Which is Poland btw. Famously extremely anti Nazi.

    They apologized and explained what happened so I am not going to hold it against them. Now had they not apologized or had an explanation, that would be different.

    If anything its a good case study on why AI is only good for very limited use cases and almost never to replace an actual human being




  • Deleted Windows from every computer I ever owned.

    Then because of a certain chain of events came the time to look into working from home. Boy oh boy, I guess it depends on the type of work you do but for what I’m qualified for they absolutely do not vibe with anything except Windows. I couldn’t even find many that would at least let you use Mac.

    I begrudgingly installed Windows 11 on my machine again the other day for this very reason. I’ll still dual boot of course but man, I’m really not happy about it.

    Also, Windows are complete dicks about letting you make a bootable windows USB gotta either use apps not in your distro directory or use another Windows computer to make one. Wtf is that shit about? And I had to spend like 2 hours making windows suck less.

    It reminds me of how apps are starting to treat me for using Graphene OS
