Not participating in a disinformation war reminds me of the hesitation to allow Ukraine to strike Russian territory with the supplied weapons. What incentive does thr other side have to stop?

I liked him on the Knicks. Great effort and skill. I hope he can show the same in OKC and get lits if playing time.

I’m not that knowledgeable when it comes to salary cap and contracts and was wondering this exact thing. At what point is having a potential winning team more important than a few million for someone who is possibly a billionaire by now. Apparently Lebron couldn’t just play for a couple of million and get a superstar teammate instead. Good to know.

Witcher 3 was great even though the pacing almost lost me. I’m the kind of player who plays one main story mission and then has to complete all available side quests, before continuing the main quest. It’s the reason the only Bethesda Game I have ever finished is Oblivion.

That’s why I recommend people to stick with it and finish some main quests if you ever feel like the game loses yo.

A little PSA: buying a game just before a sale, is a legitimate reason for a refund according to their Refund FAQ

I have never played a From Software game. Sekiro is really tempting to get, because I never could see myself dodging/rolling around the big enemies and bosses. Mostly human-sized enemies and parrying sounds much more appealing to me. But the difficulty has scared me off thus far and it never went below 50% off

I bought Horizon Zero Dawn when it was 50% off. For me it was really worth it. Got every achievement for it. I plan to do the same when Horizon Forbidden West is 50% off.

It’s definitely a great game, when it reaches the right price point for you

Repeat after me “Fines need to be tied to global revenue”. It has to hurt, if you want companies to stop.

I joined one group buy for keycaps. Took 3 years! Switched to Topre keyboards. Now I either need to buy new sliders or sell the keycaps.

Group buys are absolutely not for me.

The Villanova 4 are complete!

I think it’s hilarious that western leaders are worried about provoking Russia by providing Ukraine with weaponry that can be used in Russian territory.

Russia is at war with us. It’s not tanks, fighter jets and battleships. It’s cyber warfare, disinfomation campaigns, bribing of right wing politicians and poisonings. Just because nobody wants to call it a war, doesn’t make it go away.

Overall a good list.

Minor nitpicks like healthy Embiid should be in 1A for me and the gap between Tatum and Brown being too big. As a Knicks fan I like Brunson so high. I hope he can confirm that evaluation next season.

Then there is KD. His skill is unquestionable, but if we speak of value, he isn’t 1B for me. IMO he has become a poison pill since Brooklyn.

Teams change up their whole structure and trade away the kitchen sink to get him. What do they get? A strong team on paper that doesn’t produce results.

When the going gets tough he requests a trade. The team is left with a roster built around him and few to no draft picks.

Why does nobody ask the important question?

Will the players be required to be on his podcast when asked?

Imagine being such a bad prospect as a franchise, you have to offer a coach a six year contract and $80mio.

And then imagine such a bad season, you rather let him go and eat the rest of his contract, than have him continue the work.

Some real geniuses in Detroit.

This position could only happen with an illegal move. Another monarch would never permit the pawns to kill royalty and their police force would never help.

Did you ever wonder why the game is over just before a king dies?!?

Y2K is similar. Most people will remember not much happening at all. Lots of people worked hard to solve the problem and prevent disaster.
