That's entirely preference. There are just as many people who prefer the PS's layout.

There's no comparison on function.

It is literally impossible for a game having kernel access not to be malware.

It's not that debatable.

The feature set murders the Xbox controller.

It's also just a single support person responding to a single request.

It's not the same as a published FAQ or whatever that at least in theory has a higher degree of purposefulness behind it.

You have to do additional setup to do Chiaki from outside of your network. With the PS Remote App, they handle everything.

I don't think either are acceptable local, let alone outside the network, for anything that demands any kind of reaction time, but it's OK enough for turn based or slower games.

~~No.~~ [I was wrong. In addition to being distributed between servers like I said, you can also enable P2P sharing to distribute the bandwidth even further.]

If you have a server that allows users to sign up, the stuff they follow/watch (you'd have to look at details if you want to host to see exactly how it's distributed) goes through your server.

The flip side to this is that, when your user uploads an extremely popular video (or you personally do if you don't allow signups), you don't have to stream every video to every individual user. You send it on to other federated instances that those users are signed up to, but if one instance has 100 users view your video, you don't have to send it 100 times. (This is likely less efficient than YouTube, because they can control exactly how load is spread between their delivery network with a comprehensive view of everything, but it dramatically lowers the barrier to entry for an individual to get involved or handle the distribution demand of a popular video.)

~~Just as a client, you don't serve anyone else. It's a website (or app) that works much like YouTube does. It's on the server side where the load is distributed.~~

I'm guessing it's fine.

The high refresh rate is needed to keep you from getting sick from head movement not being tracked fast enough. 30FPS playback shouldn't feel any worse than watching a 30 FPS video, provided head tracking still happens at the proper rate.

The things that aren't pure alcohol are a definite factor. I can drink a lot more mid-quality liquor and feel great than slightly lower end (nothing crazy expensive. But for example Crown Royal Black is stronger than Regular Crown Royal, but I can drink more of it and still feel better the next day).

Or because it is genuinely cutting edge, and there's nothing else with the pixel density (even a pretty small step down murders text) and high quality low latency passthrough available?

Start documenting all their OSHA violations lol.

The PS4 has an HDD, and only partway through its life upgraded from SATA2 to SATA3 even.

And has load times measured in minutes on many games.

I don't really do social media or any of that, and didn't like the share button when it was added (I still can't stand using the touchpad as select), but the ease of getting gameplay onto my phone to share with a friend in respectable quality is definitely really nice.

Remote play is tolerable for games that are forgiving of latency (turn based, some slower combat if you're willing to die a few extra times), but the latency is definitely there regardless of network quality.
