Ah, yup. You are correct. For some reason I thought they came before.

I like how you put this. Anon was asked requirements and all he gave were deal-breakers. It comes off as desperate, crass, or both.
I saw this Lemmy post and then bought Balatro and started playing it. Afterward I was browsing Lemmy, saw this post again, and was reminded I had more Balatro to play. I’m stuck in an infinite loop.
Sega Saturn and Dreamcast also probably factored in. They weren’t nearly as successful as the Genesis. With even established brands floundering it’s no wonder people didn’t think the Playstation would work.
I’m going to start with my most played game and work backwards from there. So… K for Kerbal Space Program.
Maybe not the best choice in terms of number of games but I’d still get stuff like
Probably others, but obviously not as extensive as a letter like S or T. Still I would probably opt to pick the letter with my favorite game of all time in there than one that just gives more options.
Okay, I’m going to need this one explained to me.
Yeah, you make some good points. But I’m also wondering if it isn’t the advertising companies themselves who are perpetuating the idea that all this super aggressive advertising works to sell more advertising. After all, they tout targeted ads as some new must-have evolution but as far as I am aware targeted ads haven’t been shown to be any more effective than contextual ads. And maybe not everyone has the luxury to actively avoid purchasing products that annoy them with ads. But I definitely agree that it’s never worth the sacrifice.
Okay, I have to wonder… what is the point of shoving ads down user’s throats all the time? Ads make me NOT want to purchase something. If I see ads for a product it just makes me hate that product. If a product pushes ads I hate that too.
Right? At best their argument is “I was too stupid to make the right decision for myself therefore no one should be able to make the decision for themselves”
The hard disk is made with discs.
Remember when Sony laid off a ton of Bungie employees? Talk about a series of bad decisions.
At least they’re giving refunds.
Nah, seems to be an episode of The Boys with a mute character who uses sign language. So she signs i"I hate you" in a scene and it gets subtitled. But it doesn’t use the normal CC code as it’s a special case. And the code is buggy so it’s really easy for the subtitle to not clear off the screen and since it isn’t the normal subtitle/CC system it can’t be controlled that way. Fun times!
