OP is just trying to be funny but it seems like it confused a lot of people

It is a lot more intrusive in my experience. I'd get notifications about random blockchain conferences all the time before I figured I had to disable brave rewards to get rid of them.

Fifa is the biggest offender IMO, you can spend $10k on loot boxes and you'd still not get the top tier players in the game.

Around $150 CAD gets you around 100,000 in-game coins considering average yield from loot boxes. A player like Ronaldo costs 2.5 to 3 million coins (aka $3750 to $4500) for the first 4-5 months of each game cycle. And he's not even the most expensive card in the game, some cards trade for 15 million coins. To unlock all the top players for your team, you'd probably have to spend way over $10k. To top if off, every Sept. a new game comes out and you have start from scratch

This is one that I came across in that list: https://www.tensil.ai/ there are probably more judging by parent comment

for me personally the biggest benefit of weight training has been the discipline it gives me. Once I stick to my gym plan, everything else in my day falls to its place.

Knowing I have to be in the gym every other night from 10 to 11:30, gets me to get my chores done quickly before 10 and not waste time on Reddit/Netflix all night. I also listen to audio books between sets to make a better use of my down time

For anyone looking to get started, I have been following a workout plan called 5x5 for a year and it’s been working all right for me. The idea is you do 5 sets of 5 reps of 5 different workouts and increase the weights you do by 5 pounds each workout

HN was the first place I came to check to see if it is just me or if it is down for everyone else. I'm getting errors when trying to push as well

AWS support is a lot more responsive even if you are not a big source of revenue. One time when I had an issue, I directly reached out to our startup program point of contact and they made sure everything was resolved by constantly following up with the interval team responsible and keeping me in the loop

Not even surprised by the way Digital Ocean have handled this. They pulled something similar on me back in 2014 at a previous company I used to work in. They essentially shut down my account and did not even let me get my backups out.
