I can also buy and sell console games 2nd hand though which isn't possible on PC anymore.

That said, PC piracy probably wins overall if you're looking the absolute cheapest option. But that's kind of a different set of arguments.

As someone that used to love OnePlus, what's the more recent equivalent?

I felt like around the 3 or so, I could get a flagship-ish phone for a reasonable price. Is there anything like that now?

For parts of the world 'free bank' and 'free transfers' are just the norm anyway. I'm amazed it isn't the case in the US already.

Yea, even with connecting flights I'm sure people miss the connection for various reasons with reasonable regularity

I go on reddit for the TeachingUK sub and for the rugbyunion sub.

If those communities existed here in any meaningful way then I'd be done with reddit properly at this point.

I don't think the solution to that problem though is having multiple, smaller, unconnected grids.

I think it's to just have a more resilient grid system that doesn't have any areas that are a single point of a failure

I think the Internet is partially to blame.

The negative stuff happening in the world seems to spread so much faster and get so much more publicity that it's easy to end up in a constant negative spiral

I've a friend with one that I want to try sometime!

I switched the opposite direction a year or two ago.

Being stuck sat a desk at work all day makes me want to game on the sofa in the evenings and I find a console a much handier way of doing that.

Cause if you don't buy the $70 disc drive, then you save $50. That's the logic...

Long as you're happy to be limited to digital purchases and not be able to buy 2nd hand games.

I guess the disc drive is also good if you decide a year or two later 'hmmm, maybe I should've got the disc version actually'.
