Starfield has "fewest bugs that any game from Bethesda has ever shipped with", Microsoft says
I'll believe it when I see it. I'm not preordering anything anymore.

The mental gymnastics his average supporter has to go through to keep supporting him must be exhausting.

The Supreme Court strikes down Biden's student-loan forgiveness plan, blocking debt relief for millions of borrowers
Wow, so all those PPP loans that were forgiven for businesses are acceptable but forgiving loans given to students isn't?

Do you have a main? If so, which class and why?
Engineer. Engineer has the most creative gameplay I find. There are lots of ways of using his kit to create chokepoints, save ammunition by electricuting enemies without shooting them directly or with turrets, bridges to nowhere to funnel enemies that you can jump off and make them walk all the way back, and more.
Scout is my go to when I want to rely on speed and skill over excessive/quick planning.

What is the most Non-Gameplay reason you wanted a frame/weapon for?
When my wife saw Mirage Prime she decided she wanted to play so I immediately started farming her parts and helping her get her MR up (when mirage prime needed MR 8 to use) in time for her birthday. Since then we've played about 1000 hours of the game together.

Still disappointing that they chose this instead of listening to everyone's concerns.

Modmail down for everyone? Convenient
It seems the entire site is going down for a lot of people.
Edit: some people were saying their community page they always keep up says they've gone private even if they haven't.

Great Canadian housing bailout: How real estate unaffordability is being propped up

Ya, 35+ years is a long time. I worked on mortgage application software for a bit for a major bank a few years ago and I don't remember amortization periods being able to go past 30 years.
Edit: Holy shit, 25% ish of the major banks mortgage portfolios is of mortgages with 35+ year amortization periods.

I hope the consequences aren't just a slap on the wrist if they do happen. That would almost be worse than no consequences because then he gets off with almost no punishment but gets to play the victim card with his followers even more.

Any reason this story could possibly be considered political under normal circumstances is overshadowed by how much republicans have decided to make him a part of their politics. I 100% agree with what you're saying but things are not normal and this story will be part of political conversations.

Feds: Human brains, skin stolen from Harvard morgue, sold on black market
Wow, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't accept money in exchange for human remains but, hypothetically, if I did you would have to pay me way more than $600 for 2 faces.
The people involved in this are horrible people, regardless of the price.

Unfortunately based on true events
I remember eating an entire cheesacake by myself for lunch when I was in highschool. That was not my smartest decision.

I'm going back to the basics this summer. Minecraft.
I've been thinking about playing some more Minecraft. I've never really played that much but I never joined a larger server and was mostly playing by myself the last time I tried. Maybe I'll find some people to play with this time.

Overwatch 2 is charging you for the PvE it didn't cancel
The only reason I would go back and play overwatch 1 every once in a while was for the free pve events. I'd then get sucked into pvp again for a bit, spend some money without thinking, and then leave again. If they start charging for pve events I won't be tempted back into that loop.

How’s everyone liking this so far?
I'm a fan of it so far. It's slower paced at the moment and I feel like I can keep up with a smaller number of communities.

Cyberpunk’s expansion totally overhauls the original game | VGC
I love the current iteration of cyberpunk but I'm also excited to see this new version of it. I'm most excited about the new skill trees.

‘Bleak a report as one can get,’ regional Coun. Rob Deutschmann says of a projected 2024 budget with a 10 per cent tax hike
If they made property taxes proportional to income this wouldn't be that much of a problem for most people. Currently lower income families spend 10% of their income on property taxes and higher income families spend 2%. Raising property taxes without fixing that is not good. I'm not an economist so I don't know the best way to do it but I'm sure someone could figure it out.
