Sadly not an option for console. I don't own a PS5 currently but when I did own consoles I would trade games and buy used all the time, it's a shame this might not be possible next generation.

Darn, I posted this earlier but sadly lemm.ee is having server issues. This'll be the main thread, then.

Official Blog Post | PS5 Pro Reveal Trailer

The PS5 Pro console will be available this holiday at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $699.99 USD, £699.99 GBP, €799.99 EUR, and ¥119,980 JPY (includes tax). It will include a 2TB SSD, a DualSense wireless controller and a copy of Astro’s Playroom pre-installed in every PS5 Pro purchase. PS5 Pro is available as a disc-less console, with the option to purchase the currently available Disc Drive for PS5 separately.

The big question mark for me is that not only does it cost 800 euros, it does NOT come with a disc drive. There is no version of it with a disc drive like the PS5, you have to buy it as an accessory. I guess physical games really are going away.

For the record the devs said this game took eight years to make, and might've been pitched even earlier than that. I can't imagine working on a project for a decade and releasing to... This.

Maybe they’ll get there eventually.

Unless they rework half the game's mechanics from the ground up, I doubt it.

This isn't the first 3D game they made though. They made Solar Ash before this, and it's honestly quite underrated.

Whew, I was getting worried we were one day into 2024 and nobody said this yet.

I'm really going to miss his videos, but I'm glad he's ending it on a happy note rather than dragging things on when he doesn't want to. Godspeed, Tom.

I'm not going to say using a different distro will fix all your problems but yeah, your experience is not normal. A lot of this is because Ubuntu is not highly recommended. It's just popular, but there are a bunch of terrible decisions it makes that barely anybody recommends it.

Of course Ubuntu just threw out the old installer for debian files, and didn’t replace it yet. Wouldn’t want a user to just be able to easily install files!

Checks out. Ubuntu is also one of the only modern distros that doesn't come with Flatpak, which is a massive store of applications that's quite easy to use and has a huge store of applications.

May I recommend something like PopOS instead? It's based on Ubuntu so everything from there will work on it, including .deb files. It's basically Ubuntu but with way, WAY saner defaults and a better beginner experience. I think your experience will be a lot better on a nicer distro.

Posts like this are so reassuring because it means mods are doing their jobs well :)

It would be kind of ironic to have an isitdown community on Lemmy itself. If an instance it down nobody from there would be able to post, and if the instance the community is made on is down then then none of the posts would federate

I haven't used a single TV/receiver back in the day that worked first try. You'd have to twist that one port, pull the other one out slightly, or constantly try to push it upwards to get a good signal. Kids really don't know how good they have it with HDMI.

I know reading is hard but you realize this quote was reason #5 of the many reasons listed... I'm not going to copy-paste the article, it's all relevant info.
