      Sony image sensors and TV panels are some of the best. Everything else they touch is fucking garbage. It’s amazing they have manged to stick around this long.

    Sony threatens to pursue legal action?

    Legal action has already been pursued, against them. And threats like these suggest it isn’t going too well for them.

    “No disc, no sale” or in the words of a wiser man: “Put the game in the box or piss off”.

    Just get a PC at that point if its digital.

    Ask a PC gamer to make it as much as a console experience for you as possible if that is what you need.

    Sony fully-embracing its enshittification arc.

    I have a lot of Sony gear; I’ve been really happy with the quality… but I’ll look elsewhere as they have been self-destructing as a company for a while now. I know their TVs are going to be crappier than they have been, because they stopped making them themselves. Probably the audio gear will be next.

      The first enshitification arc was them removing other OS functionality from consoles AFTER units had already been sold. It’s been a steady decline that is intensifying.

    They can do what they want, I’m not a member.

    AND I will NEVER be a member. Put THAT in your quarterly report. I’ve got a recommended filing location.

    The company also listed “forcing someone to prostrate themselves,”

    I have questions. Is this a bad translation as telling them to go fuck themselves?

      The translation is most likely correct and references a Japanese custom.

      Prostration is the gesture of placing one’s body in a reverentially or submissively prone position. Typically prostration is distinguished from the lesser acts of bowing or kneeling by involving a part of the body above the knee, especially the hands, touching the ground.

      In Japan, a common form of prostration is called dogeza, which was used as a sign of deep respect and submission for the elders of a family, guests, samurai, daimyōs and the Emperor. In modern times, it is generally used only in extreme circumstances, such as when apologizing for very serious transgressions or begging for an incredible favor.

    Those “protests” are actually pathetic. And . Is it this feels like Stockholm syndrome to me. They’re threatening legal actions against people they actually fucked over? Lol
