keep in mind, CDPR isn't just a game studio, they own GOG, so not releasing a game doesn't necessarily get then at 0 income. Although not as big as valve of course, thats like saying valve would be broke if it didn't release games (and it rarely releases games nowadays)

Hence the movement of converting business zoning to residential homes is required in the transition. Its one of the best ways to avoid nimbys stopping the construction (as the building already exists) and increase practical housing, and reintroduce people back into its local economy.

Supply side jesus is always one of the funniest figures to exist.

You get to use the cars screen vs using your phone as a screen (which is statistically smaller).

Auto/Carplay UI is also optimized for driver with better legible text and fewer auxillary buttons that could distract you from driving.

And who are you going to trust more updating the car software experience, 2 companies who is in the business of making full fledged operating systems and software, vs a car manufacturer whose software division miniscule compared to the big companies.

Car companies essentially have 0 history of offering a good software experience. Why would anyone trust them now. Its like the Nintendo paid online stuff. Why would you trust Nintendo to have a better online experience if its paid when they have 0 history of actually making it good. Its just there to dime you for subscription money.

Car conpanies want to sell you subscriptions to services, and killing off carplay/auto would do that.

Need a gps? you either use your phone screen to navigate with audio or be forced to use their navigation service on the hud.

I would have responded with how many gen y/z are in congress right now if someone was that optimistic.

They actually got more subs (in most countries), its just that theyre bloating up, and compeition is happening which atm is making for a better or worse depending on how you look at it, situation for the consumer.

Why would the 360 need a hardware exploit if their security would be bad enough for a software one then?

The WiiU had far.backeards compatibility and very low population, but was not immune to exploits.

Officially wii, had built in emulators for old retro consoles and stuff, and unofficially gamecube.

You have to hand it to mocrospft though in the console department, xbox generally dont have software hacks to jailbreak consoles historically (generally hard mods), but nintendo and sonys OS is usually riddled with exploits.

The reason why 40 fps feels better is because even though its only 10 fps higher, the frame latency is half(25 ms) compared to 30(33.3 ms) and 60(16.6ms) on the two ends. So you work 33% harder for half the latency.

To put in perspective, the drop in latency (8.3 ms), is the same for example going from , 40 to 60, or 60(16.6) > 120(8.3 ms)

Pure vanilla, the differences arent much. The only one i recall was better water rendering.

Theres a difference now if you consider mods, but vanilla is (mostly) the same
