Games with loot boxes and other "paid random items" re-rated PEGI 16 as new rules come into force, hopefully cutting down on kids gambling somewhat
I think games like this having an increased rating is a step in the right direction.
20 or more years ago, when my step son was 12/13 he wanted to play GTA San Andreas, and Halo. At the time, they were both had an ESRB Rating of Mature 17+. My gut didn't want to let him play either game. I bought them both. I spent about 3 hours playing GTA and decided it wasn't something I was going to let my kid play. I played the entire Halo campaign because it was actually really fun, and the entire plot was space marines shooting aliens. I let my kid play Halo, because aside from alien guts and shooting, there wasn't much there that really warranted a mature rating. GTA on the other hand let me pick up prostitutes, had themes involving gangs, organized crime, and sex. It was also a really fun game, but not something a 12 or 13 year old should be playing.
Ultimately, it's up to parent's to police what their kids are doing and being exposed to. The ESRB rating system here gave me pause about letting my kid play a game, forcing me to review them on a case by case basis.
Any game with loot boxes giving a random item or content should have a rating that reflects age restrictions for real life gambling.

Boy Dinner
It's a hot meal, and the mac looks homemade, and not from a box. Girl needs to talk to her boyfriend, and stop bitching on the internet. The conversation should start like this, "Thank you for dinner, I appreciate the effort. Next time you cook, can you make some of these things in the future, they are some of my favorite meals?"
My wife works a 7 days on 7 days off hospital shift. On her workdays, I stay up late and have a hot dinner ready for her. After 3 years, I have had 0 complaints. We talk to each other about things we like and our preferences, so I try to cook things I know she will like anyway. I used to make things like felafel from scratch, tons of homemade veggie soups from scratch, like split pea, butternut squash bisque, garden veggie, until I learned she didn't like those things and just focused my efforts on things she likes.
In a healthy relationship, adults talk to each other about their wants and needs, instead of bitching on the internet.

Between 2009 and 2024, pedestrian deaths increased 72% across the U.S.
If you live outside of dense urban areas, there are usually NO sidewalks for pedestrians. Intersections often lack crosswalks, and the timing of traffic lights don't actually give people enough time to even cross the street. On top of that, with the advent of cell phones, people are more distracted while they are driving than ever before.

The only thing it got wrong was my graphics card. I'm running a GTX 4060 and the site reads my graphics card as a GTX 980.

Scientists uncovered the nutrients bees were missing — Colonies surged 15-fold
The solution is so simple. Crop/pollen diversity. Instead of letting fields lay fallow for crop rotation, they could plant diverse wildflower meadows to improve quality of bee health for the traveling bees that get shipped around for crop rotation. Or the bee keepers themselves that sell the services of their bees, could ensure diverse flower and pollen options when their bees aren't traveling.

Self-professed 'nice kid' fatally mowed down Cranford girls at 70 mph, court papers allege
The alleged killer is the son of a police officer and related to a local police chief, which some have claimed contributed to the lack of police action against his months long stalking.
One of the victims had a restraining order against the alleged killer. Nothing was still done. I hope a jury of his peers finds him guilty, locks him up, and throws away the key.

If this is true, holy shit. I once dated a woman 16 years older than I was, I was 26. She had 4 kids ranging from 8, 17, 19, 20. I never attempted to parent the older 3 kids, and they never asked me my age; it was an unspoken agreement. I did parent the 8 year old. The older kids asked for my help a handful of times over the 7 years I was a part of their family, and I happily helped them and stepped up when I could. They were shocked I helped. I was like look, I'm not your parent, I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, but you are still family and I got your back.
In retrospect, it was a pretty unhealthy relationship, but I was dumb in many ways in my 20s.

Epic Lae'zel costume. I remember when my character got into a lesbian relationship with Lae'zel. I wanted to end things, but I was afraid she would murder me if I did. We are still trying to hatch our Githyanki egg.

Jason Schreier says Sony is backing away from putting single player games on PC
Refusing to release titles to the PC isn't going to make me run out and purchase a console. There are tons of games on PC. My backlog is long enough that I can live happily without whatever kind of bullshit Nintendo, Sony, and Xbox are trying to peddle. Assuming I did care about a specific title, and it's being gate locked by console exclusivity, I'll fucking pirate it. Sony, Microslop, and Nintendo can all get fucked.
