Tons of good advice here - I personally use speed.cloudflare.com for QOS issues as it will do a few different sized tests.
Looks like a nice little feast it's got there.
💚 Happy Thanksgiving all

The section on parlays really rang true for me. Our Fantasy football friend group has multiple guys who will post just insane 6+ leg parlays and say stuff like "Damn, I was so close!"
They justify it because it's only a few dollars, but would pay out a ton. Feels no different than scratchers to me.
It also got so bad with people only posting their wins that there's a 'rule' now that you have to post the bet when you make it, not after it hits.
Like Drew, I lost ~$50 a few years back and haven't touched it since. But I've seen more and more friends get into it.
I'm just waiting for the eventual "refer a friend bonus and get $x in free bets" to be posted on our chat. Wouldn't expect anything less from betting companies than combing gambling with a pseudo pyramid scheme.
Miranda and the other workers there have insane patience... Not being able to touch the POS machine when Sammie can't work it, not getting tips, getting shit back from Amy whenever they relay information back to her ... Wow
I'd agree - plus it's interesting to think what might have become of the Dursley's of they hadn't had to watch over him then.
I think my main question with it is that no one else Harry spends a lot of time with turns that way. Although, you could definitely argue that it's because everyone else are wizards, or that the others he did live with were at Hogwarts and there's some sort of protection.
Dumbledore also may have figured out horcruxs sooner to if Harry was infecting the Dursley's
Theory has a lot going for it though!
Horcrux Harry caused the Dursley's to be awful
Which this one isn't too crazy I guess

So susceptible to stres. Zoos often lack enough cover and "hide away" spots for them. Poor thing
Possible Steam Fix for Lagging Mouse / Game Freezing
Seems that the most recent Steam upgrade has caused some Linux user's game to lag after ~30 minutes. Restarting fixes the issue
However, there are other fixes that may eliminate the need to restart like adding to the launch arguments of the game:

Hadn't seen the Halloween ones, that's neat
While Florida generally makes it challenging for people in the state with felony convictions to regain their voting rights, former President Donald Trump had no issue casting a ballot for himself Tuesday in Palm Beach.
...
Under Florida law, if a voter has an out-of-state conviction, Florida will defer to that state’s laws for how a felon can regain his or her voting rights. Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
For Trump, that means he will benefit from a 2021 New York law that allows people with felony convictions to vote as long as they’re not serving a term of incarceration at the time of the election.
Loop Hero . Picked it up for last week for just under $5 and it's been a lot of fun.
It's an Indie rogue-like with a surprising amount going on.
My favorite being is that it mixes a deck builder rogue-like with building a world each run.
The "permanent upgrades" (outside of the game-loop) are pretty interesting as well- building a village/city and managing supplies.
Apparently not on boost lol
For any AAA dev? Probably, or if you're Ubisoft you might also ban their account just for being needy

The top part of the castle is labeled 'Weenie Hut Junior,' the middle portion is 'Hyrule Fight Club,' and the bottom section has multiple smaller zones labeled 'Death or Glory,' 'Freedom,' 'Literally nobody wants to be here,' and one simply labeled 'F***.' Kirby, the pink round character from the game, is floating on the right side with his name 'KIRBY' next to him."

What has been your favorite or most memorable GW2 moment?
Could be an expansion release, guild drama, random encounter, etc.
Mine would be when I was a newer player doing a Twilight Arbor dungeon run with veterans and I enabled "Plant Mode".
I was the classic Longbow ranger with Stalker who had no idea wtf was going on. We got to the wardens on Leurent's path (up) and it was not going well, I kept going down. The others in my party kept reviving me but in doing so were downed and then killed. The champ probably had about 2% health left when I was the last one standing and I am sweating IRL - mainly nervous that I'm going to get chewed out by the other party members if I can't finish the fight.
One of the party members types "Just spam all your buttons!" so I start clicking anything and everything (yes, was a mouse ability clicker back then... how times have changed).
I don't think I had ever used my elite at that point, mainly because I didn't understand it. I just knew it said something about plants. Ended up clicking Take Root and was instantly felt dread. My character was locked down and I couldn't move as I became enshrouded with plant matter.
As if to further cement the absolute embarrassment that was washing over me, the same party member goes "Plant mode?!".
I seriously considered alt+F4'ing to hide from my shame - only to realize that I wasn't taking any damage anymore... And that there were seed turrets spawning all over as if to save me. They started attacking the Champ and it ticked down another % or so - it was so close to dying!
Then my protective plant shroud disappeared and I was running again, desperately trying to live. However, I was still so low from before I had initially cast the elite that I was quickly downed. Instantly I spammed "Lick Wounds" (As many downs in the open world had taught me).
As I inched closer to death another party members says "OMG It's so close". Fractions of a second before I was about to die my pet starts reviving me - and it happens. One of the slow arching shots of the plant mortar near me lands the final blow on the champion and I revive - I was absolutely stunned.
My party was absolutely ecstatic and kept typing things like "Plant mode ftw" and "Salad mvp". In that moment I felt like I was a seasoned GW2 player just like the rest.
Definitely died to the root attack from the nightmare tree just moments after that though.
