I can also buy and sell console games 2nd hand though which isn't possible on PC anymore.
That said, PC piracy probably wins overall if you're looking the absolute cheapest option. But that's kind of a different set of arguments.

As someone that used to love OnePlus, what's the more recent equivalent?
I felt like around the 3 or so, I could get a flagship-ish phone for a reasonable price. Is there anything like that now?
No arms though.
For parts of the world 'free bank' and 'free transfers' are just the norm anyway. I'm amazed it isn't the case in the US already.
Yea, even with connecting flights I'm sure people miss the connection for various reasons with reasonable regularity
Debit cards in the UK generally don't let you go overdrawn.
Like if I try to buy something and don't have enough in my account I just get told 'you can't buy this' and have to go transfer some more money to my account.
I pay a £5 monthly fee, but that gets me travel insurance, breakdown cover, mobile phone cover and a bunch of other benefits that I haven't had to use yet.
I could opt out of that £5 fee and not pay anything at all for my banking. I find all the fees you end up with in the US a little bit insane.
I go on reddit for the TeachingUK sub and for the rugbyunion sub.
If those communities existed here in any meaningful way then I'd be done with reddit properly at this point.
I don't think the solution to that problem though is having multiple, smaller, unconnected grids.
I think it's to just have a more resilient grid system that doesn't have any areas that are a single point of a failure
I think the Internet is partially to blame.
The negative stuff happening in the world seems to spread so much faster and get so much more publicity that it's easy to end up in a constant negative spiral
London currently has 73 MPs out of 650 (11.2%) when they have 9mil out of 67million people (13.2%).
So guess you're right that they'd get stronger representation.
However on the other hand, people like the Green party got 2.7% of the vote in 2019 while only getting 0.15% of the seats.
Some voices get stronger, but it's not just cities.
I gamed on PC for many years and basically only moved to a console when I had kids a few a years back.
Both have benefits. For me, I like the not being distracted by other stuff on the console. Like if I sit down to game, on PC I'd often just end up on YouTube, twitch, check reddit, emails, whatever. I like that my console I just use for gaming.
I still play on my PC from time to time and there's obviously games that are only on PC, but my preference is console for the current phase of life and that's fine for me.
