I guess an hour just isn't a long time to me, I don't have a lot of time to play games so I tend to plan ahead. I use the PS app to download games to my console remotely. With the numbers you're saying, are you really suggesting that you've got something like 20-40 games that you need to be able to play at a moment's notice? I'm honestly not trying to criticise I just can't relate.

I'm not going to defend the Pro exactly, but out of curiosity what is your usecase for needing so much storage on a console? Multiple users? Bad Internet? I feel like I have a max of 1-3 active games at a time, and can just delete and download/install them as needed. Works just fine for me so I feel like something else must be going on.

I wouldn't say this matches my experience. I've used LLMs to improve my understanding of a topic I'm already skilled in, and I'm just looking to understand something nuanced. Being able to interrogate on a very specific question that I can appreciate the answer to is really useful and definitely sticks with me beyond the chat.

I remember reading the manual for a new powertool and it said something like this:

To start the blade, disengage the safety (European models), then press the trigger.

Baffled me.

I think people are overselling it. Typical British tea isn't amazing and it isn't trying to be. It's more like a simple slice of bread and butter when you're feeling peckish but there's nothing else to eat. It just hits the spot. Once you've acquired the taste, you experience it differently. Spend an hour walking home in the rain, get home and change into your jammies, then curl up on the sofa with a nice cuppa. Then it's amazing.

Uggggggghhhhhh another one for the pile. I love Chromecasts but to be fair the latest one with Google TV was a sign that things were getting shitty soon. 22% more CPU for a YouTube machine? Who cares? A home hub that needs my TV to work? Who cares? It's like the tech industry regrets putting everything on your phone and now they want to separate it out again. Fuck off.

Yeah I got one of the newer ones after having a ton of the earlier models and I was disgusted by that change. Instantly returned it and bought one of the discontinued Ultras for 4K.

Not really a part of this conversation but I just wanted to say that I literally do subscribe to all these statements lol. I try to reduce harm where I can, and not playing a game made by Blizzard is so easy.

There are actually things websites can do which may be more common than you'd think. At a high level you could convert all the custom colours to HSV format and slightly lower the value and saturation according to some function. This is fairly common for images.

Pretty sure this is exactly correct. I read the Kurzgesagt book Immune recently and it was a fascinating view into how our bodies are really the result of ancient warfare, with constant oneupmanship between us and the environment.

No word feels great which is pretty sad considering how many child-friendly euphemisms there are for a penis. With my daughter we try to emulate the same vibe as 'willy' combined with some anatomical accuracy by using the word 'vulvy'. Sounds gross to many, makes sense to others. Your mileage may vary haha.
