some base ps4 games running on pro have worse performance
quite rare tho
Something to this effect
Wasn't sure if anyone else heard similar mentions

If they do, that's great
they will fix it by adding a fourth layer
Anyway, thought to share this since PS4 was mentioned

“Disconcerning”
Adjectives, Common English Blunders, Devolution toward Simpler, Verbs
My wife heard this yesterday.
Problem:
“Disconcerning” is a nonsense word.
Explanation:
Nearly everyone who says “disconcerning” actually is trying to say an adjective whose meaning is causing an emotional disturbance.
“Disconcerting” (notice the ‘t’ before the ‘ing’) — not “disconcerning” — is the adjectival form of the verb “disconcert”.
I believe that the use of “disconcerning” is consistent with my “Devolution toward Simpler” linguistic hypothesis. It’s simpler to say “disconcerning” than to say “disconcerting” (which requires the speaker to emphasize the ‘t’).
For fun, I searched Google for each of the following words and got about the indicated numbers of matches:
disconcerning — 22,600 matches
disconcerting — 2,260,000 matches
This tells me that Web authors have written the word correctly vs. incorrectly by a ratio of 100:1, which is very encouraging.
Solution:
“Disconcerting”
