Thats a valid take. The prebuilt market for gaming PCs is getting better but they're still kind of a bespoke product.

Getting games to run smoothly on PC hasn't really been an issue for a while though. You can tweak things in the settings to eek out some extra performance, but most games are playable right from install with default settings.

I'm not sure I agree with the concept of this article. Its true that the PS5 will likely have much better performance on Sony titles than a PC that you can get for around the same price. Sony has always treated its consoles as a loss leader and makes up the difference in game sales. This presents a significant advantage to sony in the hardware cost to performance ratio.

However, with PC we're not comparing apples to apples. In terms of game selection, the PS5 has a little over 750 titles. Looking at Steam alone, the PC has access to over 101,000 games, which is more than 5 times the amount of games released for every sony console combined; to say nothing of the games not available on steam, or the non-gaming tasks you can do.

I guess, if your goal is to play Sony titles in 4k at 60 FPS as cheaply as possible, then the PS5 is probably the way to go. But in terms of overall value, the PC is hard to beat.

there are humans who actively avoid all politics, and in the united states this is actually very easy to do.

Man, I dont even live in the US, and US politics is inescapable. Of course Canada's political climate is directly affected by what's going on down there, so It's probably harder to avoid here than somewhere across an ocean.

It's a known phenomenon.

As it happens, people don't often post their failures on social media, so if you're comparing your life to someone else's, you're at an inherent disadvantage because you only ever see results.

If you hang out with people in person and involved in their lives, then you get to experience the process leading to the results with all the failure baked in. It's the difference between porn and sex.

I think youd get much better flavors doing an infusion rather than a ferment.

Just get better at hunting. You go out for hours at a time and never come back successful.

It's a good thing that the pantry always has food, otherwise we'd be in trouble.

You could bake something at 420 Celsius too, assuming your okay with charcoal as the end product

They honestly dont look that bad. They just need some more fat and maybe some herbs.

They don't hate America, they hate what it's becoming. Which is to say, they want to go back to pre-civil rights, when you were effectively guaranteed success by being a straight, white, and male.
