The person you're talking to is obviously referring to large societal trends, not saying they literally ceased to exist.

Barbiturates are used at a much lower rate today compared to the past, partially because they've been replaced by benzos in many cases. You're being needlessly pedantic

Xbox 360 was beating the PlayStation 3 in sales until late in the generation and by the PS4 and Xbox One the PS3 had slightly outsold the Xbox 360.

It's easy to explain how PS2 beat original Xbox since PS2 had DVD support out of the box and PlayStation was already established due to the previous generation. Xbox 360 did well for them to be beating PS3 but as PS3 games started outputting more the console jumped in sales. The Xbox One launch was lackluster and PlayStation 4 was simply cheaper and more powerful so it started with a lead and is around 2:1 in terms of outselling Xbox One.

So I think PlayStation just had a larger marketshare overall and always had because Xbox came into the market at the height of PlayStation domination.

Yeah I rented a brand new apartment for like…$700 a month in a very urban area of Lansing. A similar apartment here is easily 1600+. I never know how these places get their numbers because as someone who’s lived both places, Pittsburgh is way way more expensive.

One of my advisors in school bought a nice 3 bed 2 bath house close to MSU for like $150k. Unheard of here to pay that for an actually livable building near any amenities.

You just missed out on less taxes. It’s not like you have lost any money.

Just do tax-advantaged accounts in the future.
