Mow them. Mulch in place. It feeds your yard.

Do you want them to have event paralysis for 9 months waiting for that kid to arrive?

Add obscenities to your search for the most optimized results. It drops the AI component and seems to provide the more direct results we used to get.

So far, I get about 6-8 years out of whatever generation PlayStation controller I get. PS3 controller battery eventually crapped out. PS4 controller got pretty bad stick drift.

Tried an Xbox 360 controller once, it got stick drift after only a year.

Bluetooth controller drifting? Here, you can adjust the deadzone yourself and get realtime feedback to make it easier.

Well, as they say: when in Rome, do the Romans

There’s not really anything you can do for your 401k. Taking out any money before retirement is going to hit you with a lot of taxes. If anything, you could consider increasing your contributions during the dip to maximize gains whenever the economy recover. That is, if you can afford to do that while the cost of living is skyrocketing.

They also flat out said it will be a long time before they even consider a 2nd version. Performance efficiency and battery tech need to make some leaps to make it practical.

Steam Deck 2 isn’t coming for a long time. Steam Deck OLED is still more than viable.

Most people are relying on income-driven repayment due to high interest rates and inflated tuition costs. IDR reduces your monthly payment to a fixed percentage of your income, but it does not scale the interest generated on the principle. The new SAVE plan was intended to scale the interest along with the monthly payment so your debt wouldn’t keep piling up due to being on IDR.

Trump is removing all forms of IDR and blocking applications to renew existing plans, which means everyone will be forced to pay their full monthly amount (which is based on a 10 yr payoff plan). A lot of newer student loans are close to ~$100K or more, so imagine trying to pay that off in 10 yrs in the current job market.

Prepare for mass defaults on loans. This is absolutely going to crash the economy, and will very likely be worse than the housing market crash in ~2009.

If they were playing online, it’s likely all of the pads were full. You can either wait for someone to leave, or super cruise out and back in to load a new instance with available pads.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any good advice, but I do want to point out that making friends continues to become more difficult as you get older. From what I understand, it’s important to have some sort of activity that takes you away from home and work where you can potentially meet people. When you get older and have a family, that becomes even more difficult as your spare time dries up.

They’re doing a great job getting kids addicted to gambling on that platform.

If the GME/AMC story taught me anything, the price of a stock doesn’t necessarily reflect the value of the company. It’s just what people are willing to buy/sell the stock for.

Well, the concert every week thing is an issue regarding ticket inflation caused by Ticketmaster and their subsidiaries; but I digress.

As for raising a kid, yeah, they’re expensive and everything is pretty shit now. I’m sure most people that want to raise a kid in a good environment want to have a home first (I know I did), and that’s effectively impossible right now.

This article is speculation. The author states that this assumption is based on a few discussions they’ve had with random people on Xitter.

I recommend using a tool to scramble all of your comments, waiting a while, and then deleting. Check back every few days to verify deletion before ultimately closing your account. For some reason, if a subreddit is hidden or closed, you can delete your messages from there until it’s reopened.

I spent about 2 weeks deleting my accounts from reddit during the mobile app exodus.

Sure, let’s ignore all the other studies in the past about this and do it again. /s

I’m not a fan of Meta, but all of my international family rely heavily on WhatsApp.

It also seems that Signal supports VoIP calling, but I have not tried it.
