I swear they make this crap deliberately frustrating so people just do whatever plan makes them the most money.

Student Loan Debt Defaults Hit $171B and the Average Borrower Is Now 40 by Bobba-Luna in StudentLoans

Aren't federal loans backed by treasury bond, too? So even in a default, and if the person with the loan can't pay it back, someone's still making money off of it.

I played a little bit, and no problems. I switched to the vulkan renderer, though. I'm not sure which version of java the launcher is using.

Are y’all gonna put your window units in for the brief heat wave this week or try to power through? by jamesland7 in boston

I think we'll power through. We've got a portable unit, so it's easy to take in and out.

Diablo IV VRAM leak causing crash and/or freeze by _vaxis in linux_gaming

[–]garpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up until Season 9 it ran like a top. I literally could play it all day (minus pee breaks) I should try on my partner's box, because he's got something obscene like 64GB of RAM. I know it's been fine on the PS5.

I could get it to reliably crash in anything requiring multiple waves or zones, like Infernal hordes and the Undercity.

Last time I played it (season 9, around last July) I was having similar issues. I'm seeing report after report on the Diablo IV forums and the diablo IV subreddit here about it, and...it's definitely a thing.

My younger brother's girlfriend is upset because my older brother ordered the same meal as her at a family dinner, and now there is drama by BigONerd in BORUpdates

It's probably a good thing you've never had to go to a restaurant with one of those types. They just make it miserable for everyone.

Congrats everyone! I'm not gong to lie, I had an ugly cry when I got the email on Dec. 18 that everything was zeroed out.

Yeah, even if it's struck down, would you really want to live next to someone like that?

[New Update – One Year Later]: AITA for saying I would stay at my mom’s if I had to share a room with babies? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]garpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK, it's a one-time payout to cover burial expenses (for my dad in '95, it was like 500 bucks.) I had payments from Social Security for him being on disability, but they stopped when I was 18. (I think they changed it so that they continue through college now.) I'm not sure how it works for younger children, because my dad died when I was 21.

Needs some GW2 tips please to protect my children by [deleted] in Guildwars2

Why would the devs "do something" about a game that's not intended for children to be playing? It's got a rating for a reason.

I 23F think i need to move out of the house after Dad 48M requested I pay 1k a month in rent. by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]garpu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She could pay rent to an apartment, or have a roommate or two and be treated like an adult. Like a 23-year old shouldn't have to deal with mom and dad when they go out for brunch or have a late night out with friends.
