Whilst it’s an oversimplification, if the old price only got Y sales then a higher new price was always only going to get a subset of Y.

Console sales go up over time in part because the price goes down, broadening the customer base. Sure, the library gets bigger over time too, but that’s barely happening either.

Yeah, I use it for Marketplace and a wargaming group I admin. Its original use case for me is long gone.

I was asking about using CDs rather than DVDs for backups. I was there for the early days of Ubuntu, I ran the Hoary Hedgehog beta!

On CD?

I guess I’ll just have to buy even fewer consoles than I already am.

People actually like infinite scroll?

I’m just deleting my comment. Yes, that’s what I was trying to say. Thanks for the clarification.

Nice to have the obvious written down, I suppose.

I’m glad someone is saying it. I’m a software engineer and someone elsewhere in this thread is giving me shit for not having much use for the low level stuff.

I was teaching a junior about character encoding a couple of months ago (I suspect his CS degree came free in a box of cereal) but most of what we do is build tooling on top of other tooling. I’m not working on bare metal here!

I should rewatch Arson Sam.
