@Jennifer be safe and spread the word, hopefully everyone will take heed to the warnings...

Potentially historic tornado outbreak in the south today. Environmental conditions only this favorable once before. Be safe.

Help 5 boys After the Sudden Loss of Both Parents

My wife recently lost her brother and we traveled to grieve and assist any way we could. During our short time we've been here, his (my wife's brother) was killed. They left their 5 children.

Pretty active day out there (TX, LA, MS). Stay safe out there...

If anyone is interested in extreme weather, take a look at Ryan Hall Ya'll's YouTube channel. He often goes live for these outbreaks and operates a non-profit to help the victims of storms such as the ones today.

@Ichinin I do get it.. Lot of people dislike Epic for one reason or another. But free is free. I wish I had the dedication and perseverance to pick up the games. What I think happens is that I find a few I like, keep up with the downloading, then hit a streak where I don't like any of them. Then it just falls off and I forget, hah.

Guy never bought a game on the Epic Store... Owns 200+

There are many reasons why grandma won't appreciate cryptocurrency... But, either way, have you given currency as a gift at Christmas? I've certainly been on the receiving end, and it seemed a bit inconsiderate, ya know?

One of the better unknown games I've played. It's free right now. Give it a go if you like rogue-like/souls-like types. Very rewarding gameplay (and pretty difficult).

@philheppenstall yeah, guess it was a easy answer honestly. Such a shame... Seems like something that was so sacred has been turned into a circus sideshow 😐

Does anyone else think Star Wars is a bit muddled? This may be a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I haven't delved into much of it outside the OG 4-6, 1-3, Mandalorian, and a couple games. It just seems that there is sooo much out there. Are they cohesive?

Excel development started thousands of years ago!

In actuality, this is fascinating! A spreadsheet from a time when dates were referenced by the conclusions of major events. Wonder if someone got back paid for their ancestors' work developing excel though 😉

Quite tragic

A part of the job, nonetheless. I can only hope they were provided counselling during their time working at meta. If not, this would be a major oversight by the company. There are certain people for this job... Not one for everyone, obviously.

Sometimes people perplex me in that some of the most fundamental things aren't known to the newer generations (albeit, some of the older ones too, but not nearly as many). Nonetheless, I bet there are people that will TIL this! And you know what, have at it, obtain that knowledge 👍
