If you've not heard of these people, it's likely a cultural difference. They're definitely all well known people. Dua Lipa is one of the most popular pop stars in the UK and USA (and presumably worldwide) , Gary Lineker is a former football player, turned sports commentator, and Benedict Cumberbatch is an A-List actor.

It looks like old AC units last forever because you only see the ones that are still working, not those that failed over the years. Classic survivorship bias.

I think that was recently proven false. Still, the guys at Obsidian did an amazing job pumping out one of the best games of all time in a year and a half.

14 years of Conservative rule will do that to a country 🤷‍♂️

I'm back playing Escape from Tarkov. The game has some real performance issues and a pretty big cheater problem, but there is no other game on the market like it.

You've put into words exactly how I feel about BG3. It's like it's someone else's favourite game.
