You summed it up pretty well. Consoles are basically dead at this point. Sony is hurting too.

Both companies badly mismanaged this last generation and there's a significant sentiment that the value of the consoles wasn't justified. Why would consumers want to buy another one?

Sony should have done the subscription model in the last generation. They would have buried Xbox.

Xbox has a chance now if they become a competitor to the steam machine, but the price will have to be much better than that system. If it isn't free, then it will need to offer steam as a marketplace.

The only way either system could survive any other way is if they went handheld like steam deck or switch, but that might be even harder.

This CEO sounds worse than the last. With a declining brand, making games exclusive is only going to make the brand tank harder.

Their next system needs to be free, or nearly free (~$100), but with a required subscription. Game pass needs to switch to a model that has a lowest tier at $10 or $15 per month that allows 3 games per month (from the whole catalog, you pick the game and it uses 1 credit, resets at end of every month) up to a premium tier at $35 per month that has unlimited play. Free console with 3 year subscription to the premium tier.

Console specs should be 4k at 60 Hz. $900 without subscription. Announce this the day after Sony announces the PS6. Sony would be screwed, especially because they are already releasing most of their games to all consoles simultaneously (per the most recent summer games fest).

In 3 years, raise the price of the lowest tier to $20 with 5 credits per month. Offer a 6 month discount on a 1 year contract for any accounts which have completed their 3 year subscription.

It's perceptual, so when we inhale oxygen and nitrogen and the other trace compounds that are in the air (like ozone, co2, argon, etc) we don't smell anything because those chemicals aren't harmful or meaningful for us. Our senses are there to find food and avoid danger.

Likewise, a visitor to our planet might think the air reaks of ozone because maybe it would be harmful to their biology. Similarly, we might complain about a planet that has a high concentration of acetic acid (vinegar) in their oceans even though they might be horrified by our salty oceans.

Could you do an editing pass on your title and question please? Writing in full sentences and adding a little extra context would help a lot.

Several of the topics that they have covered are topics that I majored in (physics, math, materials). Other than some possible oversimplifications of highly technical topics, I haven't found any errors in the information that they've presented.

I can't verify their information in all fields, but in about 10 % of their content, I haven't seen any issues that are really worth complaining about.

I am aware that some people disagree with some of their interpretations or presentation style, but other creators (e.g. Matt Parker, 3blue1brown) have covered the same topics or extended on Veritasium's original videos and haven't corrected anything presented in the original video.

I disagree with the characterization that they are a source of misinformation or slop. However, I'm always interested in learning more, so if you have other content creators that you would recommend I'd be happy to have those recommendations.

If HIMYM counts, then check out The Good Place.

There's plenty of educational stuff on YouTube that isn't just tutorials. Veritasium is good. Primative technology (turn on subtitles).

The Spanish brought slaves to Florida in the early 1500s, but I doubt they would ha e been treated the same if they had escaped to other parts of what is now the US.

Minorities have had to deal with this since about the 1500s.

Another way to think about this, if she invested the $10B as you said, she could spend $1M every DAY forever and still have about $130 left over each year.

How much would you need to spend in a day to have a very comfy life? I could maybe think of a way to spend 10k, I would struggle to spend 100k in a day. I have no idea how to spend 10x that much EVERY DAY.

This graph would be identical for nearly any cause of death. Yes, we should drive less, and if we must drive then it should be safer, but this is just a graph of population, which itself is highly correlated with people dieing.

In that case, maybe canned soup (or beans) in grocery bags?

Water is reasonably dense. One gallon is a little over 8 pounds, so that buys you a few more days. After that you'd need to move to something like sand, but I assume at some point you'll stop needing to increase the weight. 90 lbs shoulder exercises after 3 months body builder territory.
