  • Good, but nowadays the difference for flagship spec is more $800/$3000.

    My console from 2020 runs games about the same as PC hardware from 2018. If you built a 2018 spec PC today it would beat the Xbox Series X and PS5, but unlike the consoles, PC components have reduced in price.

    Which means the difference with available hardware and matched SSD size would be $650/$900




  • Tragic that a few services I use rely on AWS. Even those that are FOSS and as ethical as possible.

    All of my self-hosted services are apparently safe, but things like multiplayer gaming on all console platforms, my energy provider, IMDB, and most likely all my local grocery stores for payment or online shopping, any data banks that run on AWS like TMDB, TVDB or individual Linux repositories, and the UK government has a partnership with Amazon.

    Now I’m all for free expression and fuck oppression, however… I can safely say the NSFW part is the word ‘fisting’ on the mug.

    References to advanced sexual acts are simply far too vulgar for youngsters’ eyes. Imagine: a six year old in the era of questioning everything, recognising that the term’s meaning is unbeknownst to them and deciding to ask their parent. The abject horror of a parent coming face-to-face with the slightly awkward dilemma of blowing off the answer, lying or telling the truth. Because that is literally the worst that can happen if a child sees a word they don’t know the meaning to. These weak-chinned traditional folk seem to think that the very sight of an uncensored word like ‘fisting’ will magically unlock a portal of knowledge, imbuing the child with a graphic understanding of it.

    There’s a reason hundreds of childrens’ entertainment shows and movies have adult jokes in them - no child ever watches Shrek and gets the pop-culture joke about Farquaad having a small dick.

    There’s a serious issue with Not Safe For Work tags being used to mean Not Safe For Children but that’s another argument entirely
