A Raspberry Pi 4 is still the ultimate budget multi console and DOS emulation machine btw. 50 bucks, less than 15W power draw, virtually inaudible, plays thousands of great games and most of video gaming history's milestones.

Statistics and data show exclusive games have a far higher likelihood of being higher quality and/or more graphically and technically impressive, relative to the very low volume of releases they make up vs multi-platform games. This doesn't mean exclusives can't be and aren't often bad. Nor that multi-platform games can't be or aren't often better than exclusives, just that exclusivity (inc console and timed) greatly increases the likelihood of higher quality. Despite making up less than 10% of overall releases (see video for context and details), exclusives make up; +The majority of the highest rated games ever made. +The majority of the most Game of the Year Awarded games the last 13 years. +The overwhelming majority of tech and graphics awards winners, by arguably the most prestigious institutions in the field. This isn't a coincidence, as developers themselves keep reminding us. It's because exclusives greatly benefit from single platform focus, and design, development, optimisation, studios, teams, budgets, resources, testing and time, not having to instead be spread far thinner, across many platforms. This doesn't mean all games need to be or should be exclusive. Few games are, and that's fine. But some exclusives existing to push the boundaries of single platform development, tech and design focus, as well as increasing competition in general, is ultimately a great and pro-consumer thing. At least if you're a consumer who values the pursuit of higher potential quality, over accessibility. #PS5 #Xbox #Nintendo #Switch2

RE: Data Center purpose. In addition to building a Digital Enslavement Grid—which is obvious—I think the larger thing they're building is a Machine that predicts AND creates the future. Because a machine that can predict the future is also essentially able to create the future simply by adjusting the inputs. They're trying to make a world that's currently indeterminate & uncertain into one that's determinate & certain—through the power of modeling & simulating entire worlds and entities billions of times, and creating a Future-Making All-Seeing-Eye Super Intelligence. Cyber god. If Your Future Machine is better, faster & smarter than The Other Guy's, your future wins. If Your Cyber god is more powerful than The Other Guy's, Your vision wins. Reality becomes what you decide. You can cripple all opposition, and subdue all others beneath you. Think of the world like a giant game of chess. If Your Machine plays better chess than The Other Guy's Machine, it's checkmate for him every time. To use another analogy: think of the classic idea that a butterfly flapping its wings in one part of the world creates a storm in another part of the world. We're talking about the power to know which butterfly, and where, is needed to create said storm, when and where. And the power to defeat The Other Guy's butterfly. Unfortunately, we Americans are all "the other guy" in this scenario (along with virtually every other people in the world). And the power of the future and reality will reside with who controls The Machine, who commands Cyber god. This "Data Center" push is nothing less than building the ability to seize absolute power over the world and shape the future into whatever vision the Tech Oligarchs desire for us, and we won't be able to do anything about it. Checkmate. Right now, they're positioning the pieces. Our window is limited. We're on the clock. Thoughts? What else do you think the implications are for the hyper-massive amount of computing power they're assembling?
