Lol tech companies are going to be spewing bullshit about how they hired too much in 2022 for the next 50 years to try to excuse their labor exploitation.

This post doesn't include everything. There were a variety of hardware revisions and price cuts that you could add in. Plus the change of the price of games and accessories.

I waited until 2011 to get my PS3. It was $150 for a slim model, and I chose the Uncharted 3 bundle for $200. I think it ended up being a pretty good deal. You mentioned Blu-Ray and DVD, but it was also good for a lot of streaming services. The PS3 pre-dated the rise of smart TV's. I don't think there were even Android boxes back then- the NVIDIA Shield and Amazon Fire Stick were both released in 2014, and the Chromecast was 2013. Media PC's were a lot less common, and so were couch-friendly operating systems.

Unrelated- the Deck is amazing. With PS1 and PS2 it's really easy to rip your games on a PC and emulate them on the Deck. And with widescreen hacks, cheats, texture packs, save states, speed up, and slow down, plus the extra buttons to control it all, it's even better than original hardware. PS3 is doable too, though there's a lot more hoops to jump through and fewer emulation benefits. You can also use Chiaki to stream from your PS4/5, so it's pretty close to having the whole library in the palm of your hands.

Hasn't Twitter lost ~30 million active users, about 10%, since Musk bought it? Plus there's probably going to be a couple million more gone from the Brazil ban.

While I mostly agreed another good application would be survival/crafting games with limited inventory. Or even games like Skyrim where you can put almost every object into your inventory.

But yeah it's overused.

Even as late as the 2016 RNC debates he was still speaking clearly, responding to his opponents, and occasionally making a coherent point.

But only a small fraction of the plastic gets recycled.

If 9/10ths of the plastic ends up in a landfill or the Pacific garbage patch, having 1/10th of that plastic recycled into another bottle (which then will eventually have 9/10ths tossed in a landfill anyways) isn't doing much. It's better than not recycling at all, but it's green washing to say that it's "eco friendly", which Capri-Sun allegedly did at this trade show.

Those bottles in the image look like plastic. I can't find anything indicating they are using glass or stainless steel.

It also includes flavoring (of which the orange juice is one). They come in more flavors than just orange.

I invited myself because it's an interesting article, nothing to do with nostalgia.

"Sometimes" feels a bit generous. From a quick search I can find estimates that 5-9% of all plastic is recycled. It might be higher or lower depending on the specific kinds of plastic these bottles use, but most of it is probably ending up in a landfill anyways.

You think the bottles are going to be any better? They're going to end up in the ocean with all of the other plastic bottles from other drinks.

I see a ton of comments here hating on nostalgic people, with no actual nostalgic people in sight yet.

Personally I don't care if a pouched drink exists or not, but if they are no longer producing pouched drinks they should probably retire the brand.

Do you remember what a CapriSun tastes like? It's somewhere between an extremely-artificially flavored "juice" concentrate and a "fruit flavored" drink like Kool-Aid. The whole appeal was the packaging.
