Now I’m a bit jealous!

Did it not work as intended, though?

Implying I don’t also hate people my age and people older than me.

It’s “war story”, not “war facts”!

… please don’t abbreviate that.

What’s CNS?

Most “ASMR” grosses me out TBH, I don’t like that whisper stuff and I really hate those lip-smacking sounds - to me it’s about as erotic as eating with your mouth open. Shame, since I am actually interested in the general concept.

Why do you think they encased them in glass?

But they can still produce offspring with humans (e.g. Elrond is half-elven), which is usually what defines a species.

The fact that most of my PC builds are generally midrange builds (i.e. about that $700 price if I reuse the case and PSU and GPU prices aren’t surging), and that midrange-build-GPU is only barely usable for AAA for one full generation. It might go for longer with games that are as well-optimized as a Doom game, but that’s not the norm.

The $700 build is definitely not keeping up with AAA games for two full console generations.

That’s cool, but most people want to keep playing current AAA games.

Personally willing to ignore keyboard and mouse on account of my keyboard going strong for 10+ years and my mouse being $10.

Many people already have a laptop and want to build a PC specifically for gaming, though. Upgrading isn’t all it’s cracked up to be IMO, it’s definitely nice to have but a console lasts the entire console generation (5 years give or take?) if you ignore then mid-gen upgrade which is usually entirely optional.

… can you actually make a PC with comparable performance these days? What does a console-level GPU cost these days?

That’s just one internet rando.

Who are these people?

What about gun adverts? YouTube has a terrible track record for policing its advertising content.
