    LPT: instead of throwing your playstation away after each game, try turning it off and on again to choose a new game.

      …i just want to point out that you havent needed to power off a videogame console to change games since the original playstation in 1997 (or whenever that was, my memory of the Before Times is hazy)

        It’s not about money - I get them free from the local weekly charity giveaways - it’s about the environment. Did you know that PlayStations contain more plastic than half a toothbrush? And manufacturing ten of them uses more energy than five perforated toilet rolls?

        Every time you throw away a PS5, another penguin dies.
