it's 100% a product that Sony would make, though it'd probably be marketed as a CD player with a disc changer and a PlayStation as a bonus, towards the end of the PSX's lifecycle

consider: a PlayStation 1 but it's got a disc changer

honorable mention: Sega, for making consoles that are designed to stack

new idea: all consoles should come in standard rackmount sizes

same thing about the OG Xbox, the Xbox 360 redesign, the Xbox Series X (technically still a box but very impractical for stacking)

exempt: Xbox One because it needs ventilation at the top, any cartridge-using top-loader because that's the best design for loading cartridges, the Switch because it's got a good reason and anyways it's relatively small, the GameCube because it's baby

there was no reason for Sony not to make the PS3 stackable except ego

then they went ahead and made the slim variants not stackable too

I was going to take a train that was supposed to be 18 minutes late, turns out it's 90 minutes late, what an insignificant difference

(yes, of course it's cold and raining and I wanna be home already)

p sure a used PS3 is one of the cheapest ways to get a good Blu-ray player

anyways I got a PS3 slim in great condition for a good price and it's a model that can run CFW so I'm v happy

lmao you need to log into PSN to automatically set the date on a PS3

also he's like "menus are boring now" yeah idk about you but I actually prefer a simple menu over one that annoys the crap out of me before I even start the movie

the technology understander has come online

half of this is complaining about the PS3's bluray player

then he says the name sucks because the discs aren't blue

at least I watched it at 2x so I only wasted 8 minutes of my life

aww yeah

I've gotten really into the Linus Tech Tips videos where they troubleshoot their ridiculous server setup recently

microservice top

that's it, that's the toot

oh yeah I recently learned that I'm totally the kinda person to bring their custom 60% keyboard to their job so they can have an ANSI layout and my favorite mechanical switches

oh right, you can look at videos of about any production line on Youtube, set to some awful music that doesn't loop correctly
