Comment Re:The excuses don't exactly right true. (Score 1) 38

Honestly, I believe It's done intentionally.
They make no money on the console, and don't have a lot of games at launch.
So slowing down the release means they can not only get more hype (no press is bad press), they can also get people migrated onto the new platform more slowly, giving them the ability to adjust to a huge demand or not, and not over-produce. Plus it means you'll delay more customers until you do have more big-title games, also keeping them more engaged and willing to spend $$ when there is more to buy.
It's actually deviously wise.

I suspect you don't know how the technology works on these analog controllers.

If you are really comparing the quality of experience from the stick on a modern controller vs one of the old ones, you are really delusional.

I suggest you go back and try them side by side and see for yourself which is "crappier."

Comment Behavior worthy of the 20th century fascists (Score -1, Troll) 377

Never used Parler, not interested in if they are right or wrong. I do believe in freedom of expression.

I think the left has lost it's marbles, and gone full-on fascist at this point.

I realize arguments are usually lost once you compare somebody to the famous fascist party of this century (of which the filter is blocking me from naming), but I can't help but think this has actually REALLY reached that point.

One thing our country requires is equal treatment of customers, even if it isn't a government issue, it's definitely a civil issue, as with barely a moment of searching you can find violations of the same clauses by other platforms also hosted on AWS.

If they wanted to pull that plug and make it not about politics, they should've done it on a lot more customers than just Parler.

You are not quite right. Go read the speech before repeating the news headlines.

While I really loathe Trump, I'm not naieve enough to just believe everything being said. If you can stomache his screed you'll find he doesn't incite violence, infact the opposite. This is just a rallying move by the libs to try to deface him more.

Setting aside antritrust claims, the core case is that the move was made unfairly - on reasons to remove them for not moderating violent content, yet while other platforms are still allowed to run which do actively have promoting violent content (even politically) such as Twitter.

Treating customers differently isn't a good move.

IANAL
