Ah yes the NVIDIA/AMD/Sony/Nintendo/Whateverotherconglomeratedouchebagcompany at it again. I'm done building PCs and fighting for playstations, I'm so tired of this crap. My 5800x3d (that I got on sale) is seeing me to the apocalypse.

I haven't, because I haven't bought access to Ubisoft junk in years. Last I saw of their financials, I'm not the only one. If you want this behavior to stop, stop consuming media. I sure have cut way down. I cut the cable cord, I barely watch TV, cut all my streaming services except for one. Don't buy many games anymore (mostly because they all suck, are often poorly finished and are often just a damn re-release). I saw my Spotify is going up 5 bucks this morning, it's getting cut this week too.
All this purging, yet my life hasn't changed whatsoever. Almost feels good to get rid of all this crap. They only did it to themselves, so I hope they go have fun chasing people pirating 20 year old software. The crash is imminent.
Might want to start with not being a robot.
You shoulda saw me trying to shoehorn that 4070ti in. Things the size of a schoolbus.
It's pretty insane. It'll get a first weekend bump, and then just be a blip. I'm not 100% sure on this, but I don't think the first version of it sold that well either.
We can fight them, but ultimately these companies have the control. They can enrich and empower, and there's probably not a lot we can ultimately do about it. When the chips fall, I'd rather they just stay on a sub and endlessly echo chamber themselves into oblivion. Some will come here, but it seems like most will stay there until something ultra stupid forces them here. And I mean at this point, even ultra stupid hasn't, so yeah. If they have to collect somewhere, I'd personally rather it be there than here. I think that's the main point I'm making.
I believe the definition is somebody who is totally lame.
I'd normally be excited for this (I live in the area the game is set in), but that price tag. I have the PS4 version that I paid $14.99 for. I never finished it either, speaking of which, I must put it on my immediate list.
I think that's also pretty much universally true with all our politicians
Then just go to a different Instance. I agree the powermods are a headache, but at least with Lemmy they have way less power. You can start a new sub with a matching name on a different Instance, and draw people away from the power mods. People get pretty sick of the power mods, pretty fast.
I think you have misconstrued what I'm saying here. I hope reddit exists to collect the weirdos, and be a breeding ground for the gross shit it is, and keep it away from here. We don't need to inherit the 2024 users of reddit, no one wants them. Let them echo in their bot chambers until they literally spin into the ground. Keep Lemmy normal.

This is all on the manufacturer. AMD often does this, gets themselves a whole lot of press, to release like 10 units to the public. Then they bask in all the, "people are fighting to get it" press. Look at what they did with those 7900XTX cards, like they pretty much pushed me right onto nvidia's lap. I'll never be able to wrap my head around this strategy, why they think it's a winner. It's great that you have a good chip, but if most can't get it, then what do you expect your sales to be like? I mean I can count on one hand the amount of times I've queued for a computer chip, because it's zero.
