I mean it's a pretty simple observation. Many people who actually engage with the movie come to this conclusion.

It's mobile games. It has always been mobile games.

A large part of the population is simply unwilling to treat games as a medium that requires quick reactions, precision and thinking. To them, gaming more like spinning slots in a casino. Until about 2012, these people didn't realize such games existed on consoles or the PC, so we were safe. Eventually mobile app stores tapped into this massive market, got enormous returns and made everyone else realize how many people were willing to engage with a glorified skinner box.

Every fiscally responsible company now has to assess the degree of implementing these dogshit gameplay loops, instead of just not doing that like they used to.

The only AAA games safe from this are the ones that are extremely hard (complex) as a baseline. Stuff like Path Of Exile and Elden Ring.

The people who care have always done so. They're just 25 now. This is relevant to his target audience.

Yeah. Out of all the reasons to improve your health on this planet, trying to outrun death is the dumbest.

One of my university professors looked under 60, everybody was asking me how old I thought she was. Her real age when I last saw her - 72. Died one year later.

Meanwhile both my grandmothers are approaching 90 despite looking like shit and having tons of health problems for decades at this point.

Ever since the 40 series, you need to downgrade every card by 1 tier to get the actual product. Nvidia marketing gimmick.

RTX 4060 - RTX 4050

RTX 4060 Ti - RTX 4050 Ti

RTX 4070 - RTX 4060

RTX 4070 Super - higher clock speed RTX 4060

RTX 4070 Ti - RTX 4060 TI

RTX 4070 Ti Super - RTX 4070

RTX 4080 - RTX 4070 TI

RTX 4080 Super - RTX 4080

RTX 40?? - RTX 4080 TI. There definitely should have been a GPU in this bracket judging by transistor counts. Would eat into the insane 4090 margin though so it wasn't meant to be.

RTX 4090 is of course appropriately named.

You can't just say all that and not name any brands. Sure do I start?

Yeah. Tomato goes on pizza. Why the fuck are we not putting pineapple, something that doesn't belong on a pizza, on hamburgers instead?

That's what these guys grew up seeing and reading, huh? So they're trying to govern with assumptions that have not held true for decades.

Yeah because he's a boring billionaire. People don't really have a boner to pick with him.

Let's say I REALLY don't want dyslexic people reading my post. What font would be the most troublesome font for them to read?
