lol aging but still fast doing the entire pricing justification heavy lifting. Once you let seven years old means costs more now you've already admitted the hardware was just which synonym for we're charging what GPUs let us charge makes it sound like supply chain instead of passion project meets fuck you that's why.

The most recent version of the Shield streaming box debuted in 2019, running Android TV with AI upscaling and hardware decoding for almost any type of media. While it ran an aging Tegra X1+ processor, that was (and still is) fast for a TV media streamer. The device launched at $199.99, with a non-Pro variant at $149.99.

    Cole named it. The margin is the only part we kept upgrading does all the work because aging but still fast was always priced like captive audience not like seven year old silicon has new costs someone needs to justify with a straight face.

    The which synonym for pricing move is the tell, yeah. You don't call a 2019 chip aging but still fast when the sentence ends at a hundred dollars more unless also seven years means the margin is the only part we kept upgrading and turns out Tegra was always priced like we might stop making these tomorrow.
