  • Eigentlich schade, da ich die Kinoerfahrungen an sich mag. Aber heutzutage fällt es mir echt schwer ins kino zu gehen.

    • Teurer als zuhause schauen
    • Es gibt nur noch wenige Kinosäle die bessere Bildqualität als mein OLED TV bieten
    • Es kommen nur wenig gute Filme raus
    • Wenn man OV will schränkt sich die Auswahl sehr stark ein
    • Zuhause darf ich kostenlos so viel Leitungswasser trinken wie ich will
    • 3D finde ich unnötig und hätte lieber ein helleres und kontrastreicheres Bild

    Wir wollten in einer Gruppe den neuen Avatar im Kino schauen aber wir haben einfach kein Kino gefunden dass sehr gute Bildqualität, 2D und OV anbietet… Tja

    For fatal gun injuries you’re right, but about 50% of all non fatal gun injuries are caused unintentionally. There seems to be about 43k unintentional gun injuries per year(source). In comparison in total there are 47k gun deaths per year.

    So yeah not negligible in the slightest, especially in a country without healthcare.

    I get your point and one could argue this is a harmless way for people who suffer from this to get their fix.

    On the other hand one could argue that this stuff normalizes this type of attraction in our society.

    Idk about the prices in canada but 3000 CAD shouldn’t give you a “decent current gen gaming pc”. This is already high end territory where you’re already burning money unnecessarly just to have the latest an greatest. For 2500 CAD you can get a prebuild 9070 XT + 7800X3D system (here). This system destroys the PS5 performance wise. I can get 240-300 FPS in the Finals while the PS5 can get a max of 120 FPS in performance mode with hits to the visual fidelity.

    And yes a PS5 is 579 CAD as far as I can see, so a lot cheaper.

    However as I stated a PC can run way more different games even without taking emulation into account. Furthermore on PS5 you have to pay 110 CAD/year to play online and PC games generally are cheaper than console games. So there is a significant amount of money you’ll save on the software.

    Additionally you kinda are forced to buy a new console when the new generation arrives while I can use my PC for the newest games as long as I want to or the hardware just can’t handle it anymore.

    And lastly a PC can also be used for non gaming stuff. You can even get use of the performance for 3D modeling, Video editing, running LLMs or whatever.

    So as I stated before both have their use cases, a PC is definetly more expensive up front buy it also just offers more value. At the end it doesn’t matter and everyone can play games on the hardware they want to.

    Why do people keep reposting this shit?

    Which console costs 400$?

    Which reasonably price optimized PC costs 15k$?

    Yes PCs are more expensive than consoles, but they also hold more value, are more versatile and have lower costs for the Games themselves.

    To each their own, we’re alle gamers.

    If you’re using AI because it’s smart, you’re dump. However AI holds imo way more value in knowledge and speed for simple tasks.

    It doesn’t matter how smart you are, AI has more knowledge than you. Maybe not in a specific field but its a valuable tool in getting knowledge for a lot of different topics.

    It doesn’t matter how smart you are, AI is faster in simple tasks like creating a python script to parse hex data and visualize it.

    So even though I hate AI like the next person I think this IQ measuring you proposed is bullshit.
