    Wills and Estate Planning....

    You could always make your wife the executor. It doesn't have to be a neutral third party. My wife and I have an A-B trust set up where we are each other's executors.

    I have a Tesla. They give me free trials of FSD for several months a year and I still don't use it because it doesn't work well enough. I'm not saying it won't ever work; the tech is obviously possible and inevitable on a medium timeline, but it's not there now. I'd LOVE a Robotaxi that really...

    15% FSD purchase rate at $8k / $99/mo seems... optimistic.

    They learned that modders will fix it so they can sell copies without putting in the effort.

    IMO the relative isolation is more immersive. I couldn't possibly give a shit about the 10,000 other players lagging me with MTX armor while we all ignore each other doing the same NPC interactions in parallel.

    It's great for highway cruising. I had it drive 200 miles through traffic ranging from speed limit to stop and go, clear to heavy rain. It feels really janky for anything more exotic, though. Changes lanes aggressively and unnecessarily, and on surface streets I feel like I need to intervene...

    Based on my experience with "FSD" trials in my own Tesla and having been in a Waymo, I'd put my money on Waymo. Tesla's tech is just not a good experience outside of single-lane highway usage.

    They need to provide alternatives for the quests that give passive points and idol slots, then. Or did I miss that? I agree. I think it's our fault as gamers because we complain that there isn't an infinite amount of content to be consumed whenever we want it. You can't have both that and a...

    My main complaint with the campaign is that I spend 3/4 of my time looking at the minimap beelining to the objective markers. I just finished the final boss at lvl ~55 and I don't think I stopped running the entire time.

    Currently playing with a controller. New 1.2 targeting feels really good. Less carpal tunnel irritation for me.

    Be careful with this. There are clawbacks against the recipient's estate that extend back five years before delivery of first service and can easily wipe out the value of a home, etc. There are irrevocable trusts that can protect assets.
