  • I think it’s difficult to know where we really are in the release cycle for this console, as it’s been disrupted so much by initial unavailability and COVID. Normally, we’d be due a Pro version this year, but it could be this year, it could be next year, it could be never.

    Last generation I was happy with a standard PS4 until I played Control, and could see that it was struggling. I’m not sure there’s any PS5 games that are known to stress the hardware, and would do anything with the extra resources.

    I’d buy one now if I were you. Worse case scenario: you’ll want to trade it in for an upgrade in a year or two.









  • An interesting thing about Lemmy is that if you delete your comment, it also nukes every comment underneath it. So if you say something, and then people are giving you a hard time about it, and then you go out for a walk and are still annoyed about it, you can self-destruct and take them with you (this isn’t based on a true story of course, but if it was, I’d say it’s terrible in that it discourages engagement and deletes someone else’s actually-correct info, but it’s a good way to get over it all)





  • The data could be better if I used the API or added the information from lemmyverse.net on the total subscriber counts but I spent a lot of time on this as is and don’t know how to use the API.

    Your approach may have ended up being for the best. lemmyverse.net can’t index lemmy.world (broken DB => broken API => “well, we didn’t want to be part of the fediverse anyway”), and if you’d tried to use their API yourself, it might have totalled your project the same way it did for lemmyverse.
