Now where have we heard that one before...
Be nice if it actually came down in price eventually though.
I don't think he knows about second genocide, Pip.
I mean, they're sort of right.
If there's 150,000 identical homes for rent in an area, and 200,000 people/couples/families want to live there, then 50,000 are going to be shit out of luck.
The going rate is going to be the maximum that the 150,000th person out of those 200k is prepared to pay.
How do you fight maths?
Build more houses. Less competition means lower prices.
Social housing schemes.
Work from home being a right so you don't end up with everyone needing to work in a massive city to make ends meet.
Tax landlords. They're already charging the most the market will bear, and taxes would mean they can't just snap all those homes up and offer them for rent. If buying and renting homes is a valid business plan, then the tax isn't high enough.
They're not. Steam survey has 4K monitors at under 4%. Well over half are at 1080p and below. There's exactly 1 GPU in the top 10 above the nVidia x060 series.
The way things get reviewed, you'd think 4K was a minimum. I suspect the majority of high end cards out there aren't even used for gaming.
"no u" declares world's most mature man.
Bill Murray always claims he was conned into making Garfield, but he still came back for Garfield 2.
Sometimes all you need is a big pile of money in exchange for what is not really a lot of work in the grand scheme of things.
They were already lazy because the hardware was powerful enough to hide a lot of sins.
FF7 Rebirth for example. It looks much better on the Pro, but frankly, it should have looked much better on the base console. And it came out well before the Pro was announced.
But at the same time, the majority of PC gamers are happily still playing at 1080p. Resolution was always overrated and an expensive thing to chase.
The only semi-exclusive from last gen was Cyberpunk, and I can't really see things being much different. If a game engine was capable of running at 60 if you reduce the graphics, they'll still offer that. If it wasn't, then the Pro won't be able to run it faster either. It's pretty much the exact same CPU under both.

But this one is probably a prison or something.
The last thing we need is Pro consoles getting exclusives. That would be PS6 in all but name.
The PS4 Pro made some sense. The PS4 was underpowered on launch, and 4K became pretty commonplace shortly after they launched. It still had an underpower CPU, but at least you got an upscaled HDR 1440p image for most of the time which is good enough. Even PC gamers accepted upscaling to 4K once they gave it a fancy name and told them it was exclusive.
But here, you've already got a choice of pretty RT mode and 60 fps mode, and if you really wanted both of those at the same time, then you could lash out a big pile of money for a PC.
It's 700 notes for half a generation of slightly prettier gaming. It's aimed at the "turn everything to ultra and have a fit when it drops below 60fps" PC gaming demographic, who have no need for this.
Not sure how he passed as a 31 year old at age 6 to 10.
A quick look on eBay suggests the only people buying them seen are scalpers.
Hope they all get fucked on this one.
I saw a quote the other week that stuck with me.
It was from the widow of the guy who got shot at that Trump rally. Biden had apparently offered to speak to her, but she didn't want to because her husband was "a devout republican".
Politics and religion have merged over there. People are making this shit their whole identity.
Well it was the 69 year old that died, so maybe.
But if you're 69, and have a heart condition, I dunno. Maybe try lube instead of poppers.
"Now I suck off dogs for Quavers"
Several members of the RNC's Arizona delegation were spotted helping Trump 'set a new fashion statement'.
Xbox has repeated the same terrible mistakes for over a decade. The reason is simple: its priorities are back-to-front.
Reminder: Check your pensions every now and again. Especially if you're with Scottish Widows/Lloyds.
Because it turns out SW/Lloyds replaced their computer system last July, and since then none of my pension payments have been going into my account.
Our accountant has had to chase them up since somebody noticed at the start of the year. And only now have they admitted it, and making noises about fixing it.
PS5 Controller charging issues after recent update
Is anyone else getting problems with charging from an external USB charger after the latest DualSense update?
We updated both controllers, and now neither will charge from an Anker USB charger we've been using. They both charge from the PS5 itself. The charger works fine for phones.
It's like they've updated them to no longer charge from any source other than the PS5, and maybe official PS5 charging docks. Don't have one of those to test.
Annoying to say the least, as it means playing while charging now needs a cable trailing across the living room floor.
