That article is from Jan 2023 when Sony responded to a Bloomberg report that they had cut production due to lower than expected launch sales.

It's possible they will rebut this article too, but they haven't so far AFAIK.

I agree with you, and I don't usually pay any attention to individual poll results. But this sentiment writ large may have an impact on the general election since voters typically link the performance of the economy to the current president (fairly or unfairly).

Interesting graph on this article showing correlation between consumer confidence and positive approval in the president:

Think of those stupid "i did that" stickers, but in reverse.

Technically "next Sunday" is the nearest Sunday (eg "sunday of next week"), however next Saturday is not (because it's the Saturday of next week"). This assumes we all accept that Sunday is considered the start of the week - which isn't always the case nowadays.

It's chaos! But I'm just pointing out that there's a wired logic to it, which I assume at some point made more sense than it does in our time.

I think we can all agree it's confusing. I am just pointing out that there is an internal consistency in why it's phrased in this way.

Saturday the 4th is part of "this week" so it's "this Saturday".

Saturday the 11th is part of "next week" so it's "next Saturday".

Otherwise "next Saturday" and "Saturday next week" would mean different things.

And legislate content ownership altogether. The idea that Reddit spent more than a decade growing its community just so that it could use our content as its own property is a huge issue. How do we safely and fairly communicate and express our ideas in society where the platforms that enable this automatically claim ownership of our ideas? Social media are middlemen with outsized influence.

It's such bullshit, Reddit could have been so much more. Researching my latest purchase/obsession, and the only way to find anything that isn't corporate sponsored reviews or AI content farming is to add the word "Reddit" to the end of the search.

As someone with an 11 year old account that I deleted during the TPA debacle, I fully recognise that there's a huge problem here. Reddit created a place where people wanted to put their thoughts, ideas, and opinions, and now that they are cashing out TOO FUCKING BAD LAME EBD USER.

Edit: /oblig fuck you spez. Slimy little arsehole sold everyone out and thinks he deserves to be rich because his shitty site isn't absolutely irredeemable.

That chicken is so raw that 22 states want that man in prison.

It's wild that Republicans are trying to impeach Biden while simultaneously insisting that Trump should be immune from crimes committed while in office.

I get that impeachment isn't a legal process, but the idea that they wanna open that door just to save their guy - and still pretend like Biden is a criminal and that should matter to voters - should tell anyone everything they need to know about the party.

I own Quest 2 and PSVR2.

The PSVR2 is by far the more glasses friendly. The entire facial interface is effectively suspended in front of your face and allows you to set a fixed depth that allows glasses clearance. The facial interface is much larger and supports larger frames.

Meta Quest is opposite: smaller and held in face by elastic that pulls the facial interface into your glasses.

I didn't have problems wearing glasses with either, but the PSVR2 is hassle-free. Still, I got lens inserts for convenience.

"Taylor Swift is going to come out in the presidential election and she is going to mobilize her fans," Kirk warned his viewers on Wednesday, adding, "And we're going to be like, 'Oh wow, where did all these young, female voters come from?' We better have a plan for that."

Kirk acknowledging a) the party does not attempt to represent young women and b) the current plan is that they hopefully just don't vote.
