I noticed some hitching that I hope gets worked out, but otherwise it ran smoothly for me.

Doing God's work over there.

Specifically sponge cake? Like seriously?

I was totally reading this title thinking it was extending the shelf life of all foods generally and stuff, then they drop "Sponge Cake" in there instead. 🤣

I'm right there with you. Maybe us THPS fans all just have a "fuck the man" mentality and refused to buy from Epic. Then again, this game never got cracked, either...

Fuck yeah. Nice work FBI. 👌

Because it's all for you. You're protecting yourself from disappointment.

Time almost always proves you correct, and very occasionally, you're pleasantly surprised!

But what about everyone else around you that you care about? Being pessimistic tends to wear on them and simply for personal gain.

I'd rather be wrong than unpleasant.

Probably not this, but your description reminded me of it. Lol

Pretty selfish outlook, wouldn't you say?

Yeah, the ISP cartels sucks. I've been stuck paying $170/mo for uncapped 1000/35mbps connection.

Thankfully, before the end of the year, a local ISP is moving into my area. They offer uncapped symmetrical gigabit, for $75/mo... I'll be saving $95/mo for BETTER service.

The longstanding ISP cartels should seriously be punished for the abuse of their market positions and failure to appropriately use government funding they've been given.

LTT, for better or worse, is a very popular tech/PC gaming entertainment YouTube channel. A lot of the younger folks in the nerd space probably grew up watching his content.

I started watching a little late, because I thought he seemed kind of annoying back in the day, but I actually do enjoy their content. It's clear they have some organization and communication problems internally that they need to sort out, though.

It's a little more than that. Felons in Georgia can apply for a pardon after fully serving their time, paying their fines, and then waiting 5 years without committing additional crimes. There are additional requirements, but those are the big ones.

The RICO charge alone carries a minimum sentence of 5 years. Trump is looking at 5-20 years if convicted.

So really, at best, Trump could be pardoned in 10 years.
