It won't.

Driving costs down doesn't drive prices down. You may see prices stabilize and see more sales, but as you see today the digital and physical prices are the same for the first few months/years. With digital you are at the mercy of Sony, with physical you're at the mercy of the retailer.

The only time Sony offered anything to the user as a charity was free online play and PS+ was $40 a year, but that's because they were losing the console war with poor PS3 sales. There's no incentive for Sony to do anything for the consumer.

Except, AI and AI companies will try to convince you that it is right and legal. So I argue that there is also the fault of AI and AI companies as it in intended to be used that way.

The assumption is that the user is supposed to know better but if the user is gullible then wouldn't some of the fault be with AI and company for taking advantage?

If you don't leash your dog and it attacks your neighbors then are you and the dog not at fault?

It's an old meme sir, but it checks out

Being the pioneer means doing the heavy lifting and making mistakes. So makes sense, China can learn for others mistakes

Lol, the TP turns to pulp when you flush, the wet wipes turn to goo. Don't flush any kind of wet wipes.

If you want to prove me wrong then put a wet wipe in a cup for 15min and a piece of TP in another cup then shake it. Send pics to update us.

I rent a lot of vehicles for work when traveling, I can't say I thought "I could see myself owning one of these" or even enjoyed driving Cadillacs, Jeeps, Chevy or Fords. The Jeeps were junk, the transmissions were way out of tune with the engine and the suspension felt like I was in a horse carriage. The Fords all had huge gas tanks, turned like boats, and the computer kept glitching. The Chevy had good performance but felt cheap. I couldn't figure out why anyone would think a Cadillac was a luxury vehicle, It was like driving a Kia but everything was loose.

Oh no! Here comes capitalism from a communist country. It's like we built infrastructure to exploit cheap labor for short term gains and it's backfiring! Who could have ever seen this coming?

All because they can fire a whole division that's responsible for physical media to improve margins. Then control and limit the users ability to be able to play the content at virtually no cost to them, while also forcing them to purchase a subscription (double dipping) to be online, while also enforcing an always online policy so they can collect data (triple dipping).

Someone will be getting a new yacht and the users will be getting less value for more cost. PS5 is my last console, it sucks anyway.

Save it before AI rewrites it

It is a strawman but giving an ultimatum is also a nuclear option in a relationship and it's over when the other person said "it's me or....", that is the last argument of a failed relationship. Does the first person have an unhealthy habit that they are unwilling to change, possibly, but if you're trying to change someone to fit your wants and needs then you're not ever going to be in a healthy relationship.

Maybe you or they change or develop a new habit during along relationship, well then everyone has communicate in a healthy manner and then there's possiblity of breaking off the relationship.

But I've seen this scenario more than once where the partner went straight for the ultimatum and the obvious defense to me would be to not engage or deflect because that's a Kobayashi Maru.

Needed the data, if you're phone is always in your pocket then it's really hard to get a live video. Better to model their AI to simulate human interactions

Darn it! I'm not changing it. I shall live with my shame of not proof reading
