The worst looking game. The Team Ninja FF Origin looks like a PS3 game

Team Ninja should’ve been just focusing on making Dead or Alive 6 costumes instead

The devs working on Abandoned just teased a full reveal to happen soon.
This could mean a post-E3 event from Sony to happen within the next few days/weeks.

Seems like indie games/studios are getting their way to PS aswell, nice.

It's ITS OWN APP, not IT'S OWN APP. And DEMOS, not DEMO'S!

Drives me crazy when I see official marketing statements with spelling mistakes.

I am not even sure if it has a marketing department.
It is very peculiar.

any idea why dualsense stays warm when pluggedin even when not actively being used? or on PS5 it didnt stay warm?

charging?

Nah it's definitely using its CPU to mine for ETH and sending the profits to Sony's wallet.

charging?

i wonder why sony design it like that instead of directly drawing power from the USB cable. Surely drawing power from battery and keeps charging the battery 24/7 at 100% wont be good for batt health?

I’m not a battery guy, but I don’t know a system that when plugged bypasses the battery.
I recall doing some stuff on my MacBook Pro, and it was so heavy it would drain your battery even when plugged in. Lol.

pretty sure the battery is required to complete the circuit; when you start your car, you cannot remove the battery even though the turning of the motor causes your generator to run it is designed to output its power to the battery the rest of the system is designed to pull from the battery at different rates.

I don't think this is correct. Most battery swelling issues are due to being plugged in so often. Microsoft has included limiters to the battery on its surface line that you should enable if its plugged in all the time on a dock or charger to protect from battery degration and swelling

so if you keep it plugged in at all times, it doesn't charge the battery and the power goes directly to the controller unit? I mean, yes on Xbox controllers this happens. If I toss the removable battery the controller still operates. This makes sense because they know players may not have a battery on hand and still need to be able to play.

But that may not be the case for PS5 controller. Since you can't remove the battery, I'm unsure of how it's circuited.

not sure on the controller but on the surface I think it charges the batteries while also powering the device

You can set a time limit of USB charging while in standby. After that time, and even with the console in standby, the USB will be turned off to save power (around 5W on PS4, should be about the same on PS5).

Interesting, so they put some of the responsibility to keep the battery healthy on the console itself.

If you've bought a Windows 10 laptop in the last 18 months you'll know they they almost always come pre-configured with Windows 10 battery saving set to maximum, what this means in practice is that your battery will never charge more than 80% while Windows is running. You can switch it off, but Windows 10 does not make that easy putting a bunch of barriers to deter you in the way.

It's about extending the longevity of the battery for many years, at the expensive of the battery life for any session. In laptops with easily replaceable batteries, where new battery around grind £60-70 quid, many people just disable it. It's of little benefit for my battery to last an extra couple of years if I can't get through the day on a full (80%) charge.

My ASUS Zephyrus was configured this way and this has an easy too service battery.

how to enable it? i keep needing to use the software from OEMs to do that, and for laptop that the OEMs didnt provide a software for that, im stuck with 100% battery.

im stuck with 100% battery.

Reminds me of the time a lad complained of his priapism.

Sorry my friend, I don't know. My entire effort goal was to disabling it and not have Windows re-enable it on the next boot. You should contact your laptop manufacturer.
