Computer no longer works. 'E’s passed on! This PC is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E’s expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E’s a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn’t nailed 'im to the perch 'e’d be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E’s off the twig! 'E’s kicked the bucket, 'e’s shuffled off ‘is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-PC!!

How could hosting other people’s work and at most giving them a cut of the ad revenue be more expensive than

A. Paying for streaming rights to other people’s work. B. Creating your own works And C. Paying to host all of the above. ???

Unless you’re saying that the hours streamed from YouTube is so vastly more than any streaming service that it out costs all the other costs Netflix etc has in licensing and content creation.

“stored stolen BBC property”

Does copyright work differently over there? Or are the copies actually stolen and not just recorded from broadcast?

Guess I should read the article.

Discarded TV film was secretly salvaged from bins and skips by staff and contractors who worked at the BBC

I don’t think he hates gay people. But his music is controversy, that’s its selling point. And I think your last sentence is spot on. For your typical “masculine” man, being called gay is an insult. It shouldn’t be, but unfortunately that’s the way it is.

Eminem has a lot of homophobic lyrics. Think you’re going to get him removed? Music has always pushed the boundaries of what’s acceptable. Sometimes that’s a good thing, other times it’s not. But I think an artists freedom of expression overrides your feelings.

Ps5 does have other stuff like checkerboard and dynamic resolution available though. Fact remains, control was almost a locked 60fps on pc, and locked at 30 with less impressive visuals on PS5. And I would bet it’ll be same for Alan. In that I could get better framerate while also having better visuals on my pc than which I would get on the ps5.

Control. Runs better, looks better on pc, compared to ps5.

Baldurs Gate 3. Main thing I’ve noticed, which may be a CPU issue is there’s a longer pause on the Ai’s turn on the ps5 sometimes. I have a 5900x on the PC, and playing in normal, whereas I’m playing tactician on PS5. So maybe the harder difficulty requires the CPU to think longer, or my cpu is just significantly better than the one in the ps5.

Edit. Pretty sure I was using the ryzen 3600 for control. 30fps with ray tracing on PS5, and while not a solid locked 60 on pc it was pretty close. Control is why I want Alan Wake 2 on pc, but I refuse to buy from epic.

Looking online, the 5700xt or 2070 are the closest match to the ps5.

I have 2080 super, which is probably a bit behind the 3070 and it pretty heavily out performs my ps5.

I canceled last time they raised the price and started including football. The only thing prime is really good for is if you like making a bunch of little purchases frequently. I honestly don’t miss it at all. When I do buy something, you get free shipping on anything else you buy for the next 24 hours. That ends up covering the little stuff I might have forgotten on the original order and prime shipping was rarely 2 days anymore anyway, so what’s an extra day or two wait.
