I got into watching bodycam footage on YT recently and like half of these are 20 to 40 year olds crying for their mom, demanding the officers call their parents, etc. and unable to take responsibility for their actions, it's absolutely wild how immature some people are.

The convection oven that I have is roughly the same size. It's not a full sized oven.

A PC can be cheaper in the long run and upgradeable. $80+ per year for Sony is a $400 difference in 5 years. Plus games tend to be more expensive imo.

Technically you could build a PC that is close to the PS5 in terms of components and efficiency. A comparable PC would be roughly $300 to $400 more, or 5 years of PSN.

PC has a few 100k more titles to choose from than PS5. More indie games, more F2P, more sales, more demos, and more free games.

With a PC you can emulate several older consoles and play browser and older game titles. You can purchase non DRM games, or games on physical media.

With a PC you can use just about any controller you want. Including racing set ups, flight joysticks etc.

A PC is a workstation that you can use to watch video, edit video, stream video, store images/movies, create audio, create music, design 3d models, write code, create graphics etc. on a professional level.

A PS5 is cheaper up front. And is more convenient. However you are buying into a closed system with less options and DRM that will ultimately cost you more.

10 years later, you can drop in a new GPU and still be viable.

I have both, and since they basically do the same thing, with a heating element and a fan, the difference in power draw should be negligible.
I prefer my Ninja Dual Air Fryer over my convection oven because it's slightly smaller and faster cooking.

Fun fact. If you find money or valuables and no way to find the owner. Take it to the police department, and after 3 months or so it becomes your property if no one claims it. At least in the US.

This is true, every time I drive just a few miles, i witness dozens of traffic violations. Rolling through stop signs, turning illegally into the wrong lane, running red lights, etc. When I was a teenager there were traffic cops, today you'll see people break the law right in front of a cop and the cop does nothing.

Yeah 40 years working on computers and the last stable windows OS was XP.

I have actual experience and you are completely full of shit.
