I love your take. And extrapolating from it a bit, a lot of what we consider ‘artists’ weren’t really making ‘art’, as you define it. They were (and mostly still are) drawing/painting, etc pictures as a means to an end. For money; and now they are mad or worried or scared (with reason) about losing their livelihood. Because a cheaper, not necessarily better but certainly with a better cost/benefit ratio, comes along.

Hahaha, thanks. I also enjoy watching movies from the middle, and trying to figure out what us going on.

Hmmm, how do you minimize the risk of peeing on your own face?

Same. Maybe we suffer from the same malady? Let me know if you ever get a diagnosis.

I clean it anyway, so the efficiency from standing is a free gain to me.

I think you mean you sit down so you don’t have to clean it? (Or not as often)

Like that sandwich with “recipe created by AI” on the label?

Also, there are people who make money (or even just fake internet points) off of telling gullible people the opposite is true.

They should be held accountable for what they claim online.

I don’t agree. To me it is like trying to make water cleaner but mixing it with contaminated water.

Not overnight. The merge took 10 days, otherwise it wouldn’t be perfect.

At least you have until the end of the day to (try to) regain some motivation. My daily is currently at the 10am. Smack dab in the middle of the morning.

Yes, greed. Imagine spending $5 more per controller in manufacturing, and losing on the potential sales of replacement controllers. Sounds like a lose-lose from their point of view.

People are paying more for the brand. Most people don’t know about alternatives (non-gamer parents, richer people). And 3rd party controllers still have a bad rep. In a few years that might change, and then we will either see a price drop, or quality increase.

Patient gamers FTW

What about typecasting to a car?

Or, more commonly, “Tô nem aí” which would translate to “I’m not even there”.
