You know, maybe i dont know enough about games as i am a casual these days, aside from baldurs gate 3 which is a fucking masterpiece, i really like the 2 (soon to be 3) star wars jedi games outcast and survivour. They are like a much easier souls mixed with the 3d prince of persia (sands of time, warrior within, two thrones) games but are very story driven. I am very excited to see what will happen in the final game in the trilogy qhen it comes out.

They sound a lot like an ex colleague of mine who had aspergers. They latched on to me because they got promoted to a different team in the same office as me when i got promoted and they would not stop talking to me, and about the most inane and mundane shit. Stuff i didnt gove a fuck about

I would be polite i would answer and engage in the conversation but if it had been too long and i felt managers eyes in the back of my head i would just fizzle out and start to turn back to my screen and say something like “ok, well, i need to get on” and they would go away.

I believe they were this way because of aspergers. They could never tell when i was uninterested or when i was busy with something. They didn’t pick up on social cues. They just kept talking.

I wonder if it’s a similar reason with your colleague?

Fair enough. Its not a great sign that this is likely to continue.

Thinking about it, i wonder how many vendors rely on big players like LG for parts.

You know, like in the phone market and car market for example. Vendors use parts and designs from other vendors all the time. Googles folding screen comes from samsung. In fact, samsung make parts for a ton of other manufacturers.

I just read LG has stopped manufacturing blueray players. Meaning, soon, the dvds/bluerays at your local library will be defunct :(

Bon ross would like a word.

Our quest is vain!

Tell me you missed the point of my comment without telling me you missed the point of my comment.

Surplus just means more than is needed. Lack of shortage does not mean more than is needed. It can mean a number of things, and in this case, it means that scalpers didn’t manufacture a shortage, which is news because last time they did.

It makes sense given the context. The article is trying to distinguish between a surplus and a lack of shortage for 2 reasons.

1. There were shortages worldwide for the ps5, and much of the issue was attributed to scalpers. So it is significant that there are no shortsges this time.

2. Saying a surplus of ps5 pros means everyone can buy one, isn’t really news without there being a reason that might not have been the case.

Say what you like but people have been screaming for a ff7 remake ever since ff10. I think thats too soon to count as nostalgia. We just wanted ff7 to look like ff10.

And there’s that one guy who catches his shit every time.

Spitter!

Whilst i dont agree with them that this is an anxiety attack (although it does sound like it’s potentially related to anxiety or nerves) i dont think it’s fair to put them down for “playing psychic doctor” as you put it.

OP came to lemmy to ask for people to help them determine the cause of this problem. They are asking people to, at least in some way, “play doctor”

I k ow there is little information to go on but for all.we know the person your replied to might actually be a doctor and GPs do telephone appoi tments where you tell them your symptoms and they diagnose over the phone.

This isn’t a far stretch from that. I just think a lot of assumptions have been made here, and therefore, you aren’t much better than the “doctor” you are responding to.

(Having said all that, they blew a gasket whe you called them out, so perhaps they are a little too sensitive to be someone who needs composure, like a doctor)

With chocolate milk i have always just added a small amount of boiling water to the powder and swished it round the cup. not with a spoon, just hold the cup at the top and swing it round in small circles and use centrifugal force to mix it (obviously dont swing it too hard or it will leave yo cup and burn your hand) then add the cold milk to the top. Never had clumps.

But I will try this.

But he is just giving an opinion. Sure if you want to scrutinise then his credentials matter but for the sake of this video we should take it at face value as its not like he is going to be taken seriously by sony. But echoing an opinion shared by many is important with the small platform he has.

Looking at his channel it looks like he makes games for nintendo. And it would appear he has done other work outside of that field.

If more people in the industry follow suit or if this gets more people talking about sonys terrible decisions then im all for it.

He says in the video. He’s been a marketing consultant for some really big companies. No one is better to talk about poor marketing decisions than someone who does it for a living and for big companies. And his iew point aligns closely with what most people are thinking.

Tbh you can decide for yourself how valid what he says it. Just watch the video. Its only short but it makes alot of sense.

Implying i have 70 friends

Also, back then, and up until the late 00s, you bought albums, singles were a thing and plenty popular, but mainly if you liked a band you bought their album.

The beatles hit number 1 for 90% of their studio albums.

The second sentence in ops post here on lemmy.

Thats fair, but equally you should read the post.

Like you have never had to dilute a clickbaity title before…
