I think I would be okay with 8-10 year iterations. 3-4 years is a ridiculous money grab. I haven't owned an XBOX since the 360 though, so...

Not really, though. Rigid structure helps with ADHD, but only when someone else is enforcing the structure. Prepubescent kids with ADHD aren't typically capable of maintaining their own structure. They aren't neurotypical, it's more than distraction and energy, they have a functioning issue. They can't tune out all the stimulus that normal brains do, and because of it they miss a lot of social cues that help with development.

My son has ADHD and no amount of reorienting our family environment would help him - he could (and has) literally be in a bare concrete room with nothing but his thoughts and get distracted and slam his hands together making exploding/punching sounds for hours, where a typical kid would get bored in seconds.

It's ridiculous that I can pay for MLB TV and the ONLY game I'm unable to watch is my local team...

Please... Millennials will be 50 years old before GTA6 makes it's way to market.

How about we just scrap the ISP instead and start over with a company that can list what they are charging for? This isn't hard. Either it's a legitimate fee or it's not. I have a feeling they just don't want to disclose that they have been ripping people off for a few extra bucks every bill for the last decade.

This is exactly what I was thinking too. Actual news has never been the problem; it's the constant flow of trash MeeMaw and PawPaw are sharing as truth that is non-factual and provided by non-news outlets.

Seems that way, kinda looks like an ai generated article too...

I think person* is the keyword here. Many families have several people concurrently watching streaming video, listening to music, and playing games that are required to have an internet connection. 100Mbps is not enough.

Also, "rioter" is not an accurate description either...

Loops?
What is punishing about exploring? Elden Ring is probably the easiest souls game, you can just mount torrent and leave everything in the dust.

I'm starting to believe it's being shadow omitted from feeds on kbin. I sub to many nsfw lemmy communities, which are incredibly active, but only see maybe 1 post if I scroll for an hour.
