When did this happen? Why do so many normies build computers these days? When I was a teen, my friends told me I was a weirdo for gaming on a Voodoo 5500 Pentium 3 computer instead of a N64.

According to them it is cheaper on the long run and they could install mods on their games

>Getting N64 instead of PC
Maybe in the US...
It happened when consoles became gamingPC lite. Sure PC always had games, but they were usually different from the games consoles had. The change really started to happen at the middle-end of the PS3/Xbox 360 generation imo. Around that time, basically every game that came out on console was available on PC. Of the top 10 highest reviewed games(metacritic), 6 were console exclusives, 2 were PC games, and 2 were multiplatform. In 2012, of the top ten, only 2 were console exclusives, 1 was a PC exclusive, and the other 7 were multiplatform. Consoles had the same games as PC, but worse. The advantages of PC games began to become apparent to many people:
-better framerates
-better graphics
-mods
-cheaper games
-no paid subscriptions
The other issue that held people back from PC gaming was cost. By this point, PC building had become easier than ever. People also began to realize that PC gaming isn't that expensive. $700 for a pc that plays games better than a console and is also a computer allured many.
tl;dr:
-less console exclusives, more multiplatforms
-consoles got shittier compared to PC
-easier to build computers

>>59043514
Ghostery makes itself redundant because it's selling all your info to advertisers.

Is this a meme language?
Why learn this language over say, C++?
or Perl?
>>59042554
if you had to ask, it probably is.
Depends on what you want to do anon...like every fucking language. Is Ruby a good replacement for perl? Yes, and so is Python.

Not at all, the population of people with the gay gene is like 1% out of the entire human race.
You forget how much profit Apple makes per sale and how much of a cult they have.
Loads of people complained about iPhone 7's lack of a headphone jack, then went down to the Apple store to buy one. Loads of people pointed out that the touchbar is a shitty replacement for function buttons, then bought the Macbook because they want to fit in with the other uni retards who bought them. Apple has proven time and again that they can turn a profit from practically anything, and these last few years prove it.

that's fucking lower than me. I wish I had record profits.
