Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Phil lied about Game Pass??”.
The writers Department word of the week here is Goblin mode, as in I’m about to go gabba mode all over and up inside this you know Tech news. I don’t think that’s how you use it’s the wrong definition. Let’S go, let’s go Xbox game pass has been the darling of the gaming world since Microsoft first introduced it. It’S been called things like the best deal in gaming and the reason I get up in the morning, but the subscription Services shining reputation was called into question today after report, citing Microsoft’s own internal analysis claimed that 12 months after a game is added to Game.
Pass sales of the base game decline by X percent. We bleep that because the actual percentage is redacted in the report and we wanted to give you the real experience looks like I’m there. In the report.
Now, back in 2018, Xbox, head Phil Spencer claimed that game pass actually contributed to increased sales for games added to the service which seemed like it didn’t quite make sense, and we now know that’s because it didn’t. The report in question was published by the UK’s competition and markets Authority, which is investigating Microsoft’s proposed acquisition of Activision Blizzard a deal that threatens to transform Microsoft into a towering Behemoth that would squish Sony’s HQ building with a single stump like Godzilla. I don’t know if Sony has anything to worry about, sounds like the Xbox game. Pass HBO show would be terrible, nobody would buy it yourself subscribe. I don’t really get it, but Samsung has finally done something about the rapid Health degeneration issue plaguing its 990 Pro ssds. Like some kind of flag flag, lesions reports from the owners of the model in question emerged in the past few weeks, describing their drives smart Health deteriorating extremely rapidly, almost as if it’s been stricken by a disease or perhaps a plague.
Samsung has now released a firmware update for the 990 Pro that stops. The drive from deteriorating further, unfortunately, does not reverse the deterioration. That’S already occurred that ssd’s leg will always have some scarring.
The issue is a much worse one than the glitch that caused Samsung’s. 980. Pro ssds to get stuck in read mode, which was completely healed by a firmware update a couple of weeks ago.
I don’t know what Samsung did differently with this generation of ssds, but maybe it should get immunized before it goes traveling to Exotic locations on account of the plague. Why are you saying play? What do you say? Plague plague? Don’T eagle? Amazon has gradually taken a bigger and bigger cut of sales made through its marketplace with the Commerce Giant’s average share of each transaction surpassing 50. For the first time back in 2022, because hey inflation’s hurting everybody right now, even Amazon, they got bills to pay. The news comes from a study by Marketplace pulse, showing that with Amazon steadily increasing its commission, warehouse storage and packing delivery fees, advertising costs, Amazon’s total cut of the average products price steadily Grew From 35.2 percent in 2016, the Before Time 251.8 percent in 2022..
One could argue that Amazon was basically doing half the work by attracting new customers and increasing sales. If one really wanted to be that guy or one, but in a familiar story, sales have dropped. Since the height of the pandemic, leaving sellers asking whether a 50 cut is Justified in this economy, you looked at the charts, it’s an economy that makes you want to fix your own things instead of buying new ones.
