  • I don’t speak french or Spanish, but in Italian “windows ti ha piantato” it has the same three nuances that op wrote. When a computer is “piantato” it means it’s frozen/crashed. Like it’s stuck, planted in the ground.

    For example someone can shout “Cazzo!!! Questo cazzo di computer si è piantato e ho perso il salvataggio del cazzo! Cazzo!”

    Also a girlfriend can “piantato” = break up or do no show on appointment. And also “piantato” main meaning is to plant something in the spil



  • Xbox gaining high percentage because they sell 100x less units than Sony.

    From that famitsu issue:

    Hardware Sales (followed by lifetime sales)

    Switch 2 – 59,543 (5,011,059)
    PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 12,141 (1,248,515)
    Switch OLED Model – 7,468 (9,526,329)
    Switch Lite – 4,807 (6,903,964)
    Switch – 4,067 (20,0271,045)
    PlayStation 5 Pro – 840 (341,548)
    PlayStation 5 – 558 (5,910,474)
    Xbox Series X – 525 (325,952)
    Xbox Series X Digital Edition – 278 (29,362)
    Xbox Series S – 129 (341,622)
    

    So, PS5 digital non pro sold 12k units while the equivalent Xbox digital non pro sold 120 units.

    If next month a Japanese retailer does a clearance sale and sells 200 Xboxes the headline isn’t “Xbox got a massive 100% increase in sold units in Japan, while Sony tumbled 2%”
