I'm far from a fanboy, but it's literally the fastest selling console of all time.

Sounds like you'd updated your system GPU drivers but not your flatpak ones. It's an oddity and I'm not sure what the fix is apart from knowing you always need to update flatpak when you pull in a driver update.

Not "necessarily connected" is far from "nothing to do with each other". You need to stop shifting the goal posts and take the L.

I'm not a doctor but I do have adhd, depression and anxiety. A quick Google confirms they are in fact linked, so I'm not sure what you mean by "have nothing to do with each other".

That’s it. That’s the only reason.

Manufacturing labour costs are far cheaper outside of China but the skills aren't available. While labour costs are always a factor, the US just doesn't have enough skilled manufacturing engineers or the supply chain you get somewhere like Shenzen.

Game prices haven't followed inflation because the market kept growing so fast that they made it up on gross revenue. That's coming to an end (hence the post-lockdown market contraction and layoffs), so expect prices to go up by at least $10 every generation from now on.

And in fairness, the fifth attempt was on an intel platform.

Its not year on year, all datapoints are the rate against 2015's rate.

Those silly cunts don't know where I'm from. I'd question the accuracy of it even for online-only discourse.
