I guess you're not wrong, it definitely wasn't cheap. I bought the components during a Black Friday sale, so I was able to save several hundred, though.
I enjoyed Infinite as well. The story was good enough to keep me hooked, and despite you having to escort Elizabeth or the majority of the game, she didn't feel like a burden.
I used Wallpaper Engine for a bit and was amused when I found the anime filter option, but there is a lot of it. I'm not surprised to hear that bad actors found a way to exploit its popularity.
Battlemage is probably my favorite fantasy archetype. I like the idea of being to effectively use weapons and magic, or using them together to even greater effect.
I got new Liftmaster garage doors installed this past January. I haven't installed the app and I have no plans to. I didn't even consider different brands or features at the time; I just wanted door that open and close when you push the buttons. So far, they have been fine, and the integrated battery backup came in handy once as well.
I mowed lawns as a younger teen and worked at a local pizza place at 16.
As a side note, I remember coming to the realization that I actually had some money after a few weeks of mowing lawns. I was fortunate enough that my parents covered living expenses, so my pay could all be spending money for me. I of course knew that working = pay, but the first couple times you have a couple hundred bucks in your pocket that you can spend as you please is a liberating feeling.
I agree with most that garrisons were ultimately detrimental to the game, but they were goddamn goldmines. WoW tokens were introduced in the same xpac, and I was making enough gold via garrisons to pay for over a year of game time, plus Destiny 2 and Diablo 3 DLC.
I forgot the exact episode, but I felt The Expanse was pretty mediocre until one of the last episodes of S1. I stuck with it because I was told prior to starting that it takes a while to get going. I'm glad I stuck with it, as it's my favorite sci-fi show.
For me, it was the Big Bang Theory. The first two seasons were great, third season was good, fourth season was kinda meh, and I stopped watching partway through the fifth season. From what I gathered, as the show gained popularity, they changed it from being a show for nerds, to being for "normal" people who know a nerd.
I would look at your potential career path and go for certs to support that. Cisco certs for networking, Azure/AWS for cloud-based infrastructure, etc. Before starting any course though, I would check with your company to see if they would foot the bill or reimburse you for any of them. They might be looking for something specific and more willing to pay for you to learn it.
Highly dependent on what features I need from the software in question and what the alternatives are. For a business case, I would probably go with 3. I deal with software deployments at my company, so I know how bad some bugs can be to the business. For games, I tend to go with 1. For other software, 3, as I'm not really a power user for things like photo editing, spreadsheets, etc.

I built a new high end system a couple years ago, and I'm glad I did, since it may have to last for the foreseeable future.
I remember watching this show with my dad on tv when it was airing. It may be time for a rewatch!

I enjoyed Tactics, but that was also when it was relatively new. It may be worth checking out still if you like squad-based strategy games.

Ah, so you do understand the reason for gift cards.
The few seconds of gameplay they showed didn't look very promising.
I usually glance at it just to see what I'm getting into.

I certainly wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but It was fun as hell and I was really bummed when their overhaul bid was shot down by EA.

Yep, this was me. I picked it up and put it down a couple times... then got to ep 12.

It's only a model.
SHHH
