My grandmother was from Maryland, and she said the “warshing” thing.

Pronounced “Mizzurah”.

We’ll see. Boycotting a $1000+ digital only console will be easier than boycotting a $70 game. Will millions buy it? Of course. But shareholders don’t just want SOME of the money, they want ALL of the money. It needs to sell many tens of millions.

I’m surprised that they haven’t brought up the negative environmental effect of producing compact discs and enclosures as an excuse.

They’re still planning to release empty cases with codes in the box for retailers, so that tells you how much of a shit they give about that. Dunno if that will continue with PS6, though.

Is there anyway to backup our games purchased on Steam?

Yes, you can copy the install folders and saves for them. Some can be modified to run without Steam fairly easily, some will need more involved cracks. Generally it’s easier to just redownload the whole game cracked and move your save files over.

The PS5 probably won’t see any noticeable decrease in game sales, because pretty much everyone who wants one already has one, but I’ll be interested to see if gamers call Sony’s bluff for the PS6 or not.

Don’t see how that would relate to “everybody clapping,” as it’s not something that happened, but is it so hard to believe as well? Especially since it said nothing about “ending world hunger?”

You can’t even conceive of a person donating $200 that they found rather than keeping it? That’s sad.

You’ve hit the nail on the head.

This phrase is VERY popular with LLMs, I’ve noticed.
