Since the invention of the cellphone: Photographic evidence of UFOs way down. Photographic evidence of Bigfoot way down. Photographic evidence of police brutality way up. Which of these phenomenon is real?!?!?

The real reason for the chip shortage:

Isn't El Salvador one of the nicer countries down there?

WoW has a plot?!?

What is this a reference to?

Yeah, this. They've streamlined everything too far, and combined with the fact that everything is discovered on the PTR before the game ever goes live, all you ever do is color by numbers and the colors aren't even that good. PvP remains relatively interesting because the actual combat/class...

The Reagan years proved that the American economy can handle 5% inflation YOY and be just fine for quite a while.

If you can buy a 3080 FE at MSRP from Best Buy, it's definitely worth the price, it's an incredible card @ 699. Otherwise, look for an AMD 6800 or 6800 XT at MSRP. Nothing else is really worth it at these prices, between the tariffs and the other assorted ridiculous markups.

If you go to the first-party Amazon seller you can preorder these for $236 right now.

I've been buying expensive bacon, saving the bacon fat in small mason jars in the freezer, and using it to fry just about everything that one would normally cook in oil or butter. Eggs? Potatoes? Scallops? Everything is better fried in bacon fat, including the Impossible Burger I just ate...

I'll come back for whatever the last season of this expac is (I doubt we'll see a season 4) and the first season of the next (if there's a next expac) but I'm sitting this one out for sure.

BF4 hit detection was way off for like... over a year though right? If I remember correctly?

BF 1 was really fun at first, but got old faster than any of them. I didn't even bother playing BF5.

So I guess given the storm effects and the ice settings the backstory is that it's the start of the ice age mentioned in the 2142 backstory? Not that there's any need for a plot without a single player campaign.

The jet + rocket is a reference to this famous clip: I guess someone already linked it.

I have a funny feeling that another Titanfall game is in the works with the recent re-interest in that game and they don't want Battlefield to cross over into that territory.

And WOTC has become their most profitable division by far. https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/47698/wotc-makes-more-money-hasbros-toy-business#:~:text=Sales%20for%20the%20WotC%20and%20Digital%20Gaming%20segment,Gaming%20segment%20for%202020%20was%20%24420.4%20million.%20

Looks like we're just getting BF4 again.

The year is 2042. US and China are in a cold war/proxy war with the free city of Hong Kong and various South East Asian countries as US proxies and multiple South American countries as China proxies. US is possibly on the verge of a civil war but is being held together by the possibility of...

More than one person had the key (to prevent one criminal from dicking over the other criminals) and it was somehow stored or transmitted poorly at some point and got either intercepted or seized. Either that or the "payment server" itself had some kind of API function that had the key in the...

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/06/us-seizes-2-3-million-colonial-pipeline-paid-to-ransomware-attackers/ Of note: So the most likely answer is that they traced the wallet that was storing the money and they'd already seized the private key because it probably existed as data on a seized...

It's not that complicated and it's not the first time this has happened. Wallet transactions are easily traceable and when the money moves from one wallet to to another owned by an entity that the US government can leverage, they get their money.
