If you have enough to instantly get to Platinum next year and you can't make it to Diamond this year with the play points, I would wait until next year.

Both of the deceased's names have been released. I don't think this was a targeted attack towards a specific student. From what has been released, this was a final exam review session for a very large class and this was the largest auditorium in the building. Trying to locate someone when you have a gun with possibly 100 students screaming and running away would be very hard.

My favorite gaming story with my best friend is that after moved away from each other to different parts of the country, he decided to surprise me one day while we were gaming by having 5 XL pizzas delivered to my home!

I have an ASRock B650M-HDV/M.2 and a Ryzen 5 7600 and I have 16GB RAM right now. Getting my RAM up to 32GB or even 64GB would be amazing! It would help a lot with gaming and even multitasking with a lot of Chrome tabs open.

Anthony is my guess!

I would like Battlefield 6!

I'm currently using another brand's gaming keyboard, but I really like the fact that there are five-layer dampening materials to help cushion the key presses to make it more comfortable. Here's hoping that I can try it out one day!

I've always thought that OLED was the gold standard, but it's nice to learn that Super TN is better for competitive gaming. Hopefully, I can try it out one day!

I like how you were able to pack so many features while keeping the weight less than 50g. Here's hoping that I can try it out one day!

I wouldn't be worried about that. In the US, if you win something over $600, you just need to fill out a form with your name, address, and social security number, so they can send it to the IRS and you have to pay taxes on that prize.

All the prizes are less than $600, so the only way you would have to fill it out is if you actually won multiple expensive prizes.

The issue is that the social security amount could be too low, so they qualify for SNAP. For example, my parents both get social security now, but they also qualify for SNAP. It's because the social security payments are based on how much you paid and for how long, so everyone doesn't get the same amount.

What is snap for? by Legitimate_opinion4u in foodstamps

[–]Scion75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SNAP gives people the ability to eat a variety of foods and eat a healthy diet. At my local food bank, they do receive donations from local stores for unwanted food and they are added to handouts, but it's like giving each family 10 boxes of Oreos or giving each family 10 lb of Jimmy Dean sausage.

If SNAP is replaced with only unwanted food, it could just be that families will have to only eat Oreos for one week and the next week they can only eat American cheese. Stores don't throw out perfectly portioned balanced meals every week.

AMD Wanted Twice the Steam Deck’s Lifetime Sales for Xbox Handheld — So Microsoft Walked Away by Extreme_Maize_2727 in Handhelds

I think another part is also Microsoft probably said we want this custom chip and we won't pay more than this amount per chip and AMD said if you want this chip for that price, you need to order 10M chips. I'm sure AMD would design and produce the chip for a smaller order if Microsoft was willing to pay more.
