I am incapable of the mythical 90 minute power nap. It's either 5-10 minutes and I feel like shit waking up, or it's six hours and I feel like shit waking up.
This kinda highlights the multimedia thing I mentioned. They packed so many things into the original PS3 that the average consumer was either overwhelmed or simply couldn't afford it.
The PS3 wasn't bad, in fact it was the objectively better console, it was jusg so expensive to produce that the average consumer couldn't buy it or simply didn't need all of its capabilities.
Too young to remember but I do know the original PS3 was marketed more as a multimedia device, and started at $499 in 2006, which is over $750 today. That probably gave the Xbox 360 a boost. However the PS3 is likely viewed more favorably today since the slim model was much cheaper and marketed as a gaming console rather than multimedia, whereas Microsoft had the Red Ring of Death to deal with before they went down the Multimedia marketing path, which culminated in the Xbox One launch, also pictured.
These fuckin men dressin' as ladies, minding their own business! Destroying this great country!
I have a teacher who's a super trump supporter anf says shit like this unironically. One of his favorite movies is Rocky Horror Picture Show, and I think that's just one of the funniest things.
Oh my God the repeating ads really are what makes it so much worse. Whenever I watch something on Hulu I have to sit through the same three commercials and it becomes completely mind numbing. Cable had more variety since it wasn't as targeted.
One of the very few benefits of cable was that you could be watching one channel, then when the commercials come on, you could switch to another channel and watch that until the commercials come on. Then you could just keep pressing the "Back" or "Previous" button to switch between the two.
Had this mastered back in the late 2000s, rarely had to sit through a commercial break if you knew the channel schedules.
There are people in the US who will fight tooth and nail to defend the imperial system, as if it's superior in some way. It just doesn't make sense to me. It's harder to learn, completely inconsistent, and unlike standard metric, there is no scientific basis for the measurements. They're just random distances that someone made up.
Tell me, what's easier to remember? 0°C or 32°F? 100°C or 212°F? 1000m = 1km or 5280ft = 1mi
I mean it got people to click the tweet didn't it?
