You need to make the worst product that you’re still able to sell, and then make sure you sell it to the same people multiple times.

This is a lovely summary of modern capitalism. The carnival barkers would have you still believe that excellence rises to the top, but it doesn’t. What wins is the appearance of excellence, as a facade for the least effort possible, like you said.

Share markets created this perverse incentive that rewards businesses for appearing successful even if they produce fuck all. I’m thinking of Jack Welch era GE or today’s preeminent carbon credit trading firm, Tesla Motors.

Neither does the PS5 but there’s a 3.5mm jack and a built in mic in the controller. Sony’s claim is that standard Bluetooth isn’t fast enough to stay in sync with the screen and your control inputs, so they have their own bespoke wireless (but not Bluetooth) headset. I’m happy enough with a cheap pair of wired headphones from the supermarket.
