  • Just about everyone I know who has the latest gen Xbox had trouble acquiring one. The pandemic messed up the launch of both games and the manufacture/availability of the consoles and unlike the switch and PS5 (which have worldwide popularity), the Xbox just never seems to have recovered because Americans went from a point in time where they had a lot more free time and potentially money (with the stimulus), right back to the grind with stagnant wages and housing crisis etc. Can’t say I’m surprised that it’s not selling well these days.









  • Did you read this article?

    “Trump administration says it has no plans to fulfill $400 million ‘armored Tesla’ contract” - thats the headline.

    And it doesn’t specify which kinda of vehicles, nor does it give anything other than a general timeline of interest.

    Basically sounds like the government put out feelers to see which automakers were interested in potentially making armored vehicles for the government that were electric and only Tesla responded. And further, it doesn’t say why that plan was scrapped, but it literally also started in the Biden administration, not the Trump administration. There’s a lot of supposition in that article. I wouldn’t call this conclusive.
