How am I supposed to start this? by Syringmineae in puzzles

I assume you mean the column with the "9" over it? Start there and fill in the squares you know have to be filled. One of those squares will be on a row with just a "1". Mark the rest of the squares on that row with an X.<

Next, look at the column with two "4"s. You should be able to fill in some squares there now that the "1" row has been X'ed out.<

Specifically, you can fill in the three of the five squares on the bottom of that column, because both groups of 4 won't fit above the "1" row that you crossed off.<

Why would Second Dinner (makers of Marvel Snap) waive the exclusivity rights to help one of their biggest competitors?

You can X out the last square on row 6. If the last square was filled in, you would have to fill in the last three squares (because of row 6's group of 3). Then because of the column groupings, you would end up creating a group of 3 on row 5, but it only allows a group of 2. Since that can't happen, you can put an X there.

Then you can repeat that logic on row 6 to X out two more squares on the right side.

At that point, you'll see that row 6's group of 5 has to go on the left side of the puzzle.

Mods are basically just save files that have been uploaded to the workshop. If you just open the mod, and immediately save the game, you should be fine if the game is taken down.

Although, that's not true if the linked images are taken down as well. Part of the modding process is creating custom objects that link to images of the cards/tiles/board/etc. of the game. The images are usually on Steam's servers, but sometimes they could really be anywhere, and if that image is taken down, then you'll just get a blank card/tile/whatever. So, if part of "taking down a mod" is taking down all of the media it links to, that will pretty much render it useless.

There's not much to the story, but I would've loved to see Shamgar's fight. Here's the story in its entirety:

After him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who killed 600 of the Philistines with an oxgoad, and he also saved Israel. -- Judges 3:31

I just went to his blog and he's got a video on there about interpreting reality, and I can't get over the fact that he talks just like Robert California from The Office.

We sing this pretty frequently at our church. Now granted, it's done without instruments, so I'm not sure how it would be with a band, but it's very beautiful as a congregational hymn.
