Not quite. Price of entry has always been cheaper and that’s not going to change anytime soon. Sure, consoles next gen are going to cost more but so do PC components and ports are infamously unoptimized. People in tech savvy communities also underestimate the value of a mostly plug and play experience.
The problem here is that I don’t see Sony reversing their decision and when the market leader does something the rest of the pack follows. Microsoft will undoubtedly scrap a disc drive for their nextgen PC/Console hybrid. The new disc to digital feature is just a means to soften the blow. So, whatever fuss we raise it doesn’t really matter. Sony has already decided to take the hit and move on.
While I fully agree and support Codeberg stance on vibecoded projects I’m not sure I follow their reasoning here. For instance they complain about webcrawlers scraping their site to train their LLM models but I don’t see why getting rid of the vibecoded repositories wouldn’t make them more palatable for scrapers. A site full of human made code is infinitely more useful to those companies than a slop infested honeypot.
You absolutely can. You just need to setup an S3 bucket somewhere, be it cloud or a local S3 compatible storage like a minio server.
