Huh, this post has 2 examples of bees that can do that already.

Same. I love my PS5 and have had almost no issues at all with it. I also love my PC but I use them for different purposes.

Yes totally true, just saying that there will always be some amount of flex.

100% that aluminum is flexing, the question is how much matters to OP? A CNC router has far beefier extruded aluminum gantries but still flexes from the weight of the router, although typically less than a mil. My guess would be at least 10-15mil with the aluminum angle.

When’s the last time a Windows update took more than 30 minutes? It takes about the same time to update my FreeNAS box as it does to install windows/upgrade to a new version

Oh my bad, yes we were (I brought it up lol) comparing consoles and PCs. You are correct.

I thought this discussion was about Sony continuing to invest in the console ecosystem, not specifically for people who already had a gaming PC.

I do agree support is getting better quickly but it still has a ways to go, at least to match the compatibility of consoles.

The problem I’ve always run into is steam big picture, games with launchers, resolution issues, display scaling for large screens (more rare now), no Dolby Atmos, poor HDR support, and general difficulties for other family members. Consoles are just far far more consistent with the experience than PCs, currently at least.

That’s pretty dark even for Lemmy…

Why not both? I have a gaming PC for titles that are best played on the PC and the PS5 is for when I want to relax on the couch.

The problem is if you are on one political side of the fence the entire other side is immediately labeled as bots.

I was banned from my first Lemmy instance for disagreeing with a political statement. In 11 years I never got banned from reddit, go figure.

Let’s suppose you are right for a moment, can the $350 buy a case, power supply, motherboard, CPU, RAM, hard disk that is on par with the PS5? GPU is only half the equation.

You’re not wrong. It’s far more powerful than any PC you can build for the same price. Everyone likes to complain on this platform, maybe more so than Reddit. Anything a company does to make money is down voted and called unreasonable.

I’ve actually been surprised but how many gems I’ve found in games with a 70% rating or a 82% rating. Sometimes ratings can be impacted by feelings about a company or a media incident when the actual game is rock solid.

Do you work in the corporate world? Because Microsoft Copilot is included in E3 and E5 licenses so nearly every enterprise Windows corporation is running it. Copilot is being pushed hard at our company and at a recent conference everything was about Copilot. I don’t think it feels anything like Cortana, it feels exactly like ChatGPT. What you state may be true for personal users, but the real money for Microsoft is in the enterprise business.

True but it won’t be comparable to the console hardware. Has anyone done a cost/performance analysis of the PS5 Pro? Most of the time the cost is subsidized into the licensing fees involved in order to sell PS5 games.

Not a very good gaming PC, certainly not as good as the PS5 Pro hardware if you need everything, monitor peripherals, GPU, RAM, etc.

Free forever, until it’s not
