Might as well open a Roth IRA and start contributing to an index fund like VTI or VOO.

Long term stable growth and tax beneficial. The earlier you start saving for retirement the better, compound growth is very powerful.

I think a lot of gamers just don't care enough too. I know so many people that buy a game on release, play it for a few hours, and then drop it. Even AAA titles that are actually good.

Steam achievements kinda confirm that as well, there is a fair bit of drop-off on even the most popular games.

Even with the wariness of Meta's entrance into the fediverse, Threads gives it legitimacy and spreads awareness. So many people on reddit were saying the fediverse was confusing and that it wouldn't catch on or appeal to the average user. Threads can change that perception, even if the various lemmy instances don't federate with Threads, people will be aware of the existence of other servers, of the technology, and be more willing to branch out.

And we thought bots and karma farming were bad before.

I did originally create an account there, but it was when they announced it. I'd reccomend reaching out to Multiplicity on the PoE discord as he runs the PoE lemmy server.

You should be able to post directly there using your current account though, it should be federated with most lemmy instances and kbin.

Given CDPRs track record with the deep Witcher series discounts I'd expect a complete 2077 edition for cheap in a few years.

It's worth pausing if there are no games you want, they'll often (maybe always?) offer a discount on the next month if you do.

Yup, I've been eyeing Outer Worlds for a while. Patient gaming pays off again.

It's a great lesson in how important elections are. Trump was able to appoint multiple supreme court justices which have shaped the future of America for years due to their most recent decisions and will continue to shape it for decades after he is gone.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sat on the reddit board for years and was briefly CEO for 8 days.

This is a great protest technique that I think everyone can get behind because it's fun. It might actually increase engagement in the short term as everyone wants to mess around with it, but in the long term if this stays active it hurts the subs actual usability.

The hypocritcal thing here is that Worldpolitics did this years ago and reddit didn't care.
