Sorry I don't follow Overwatch. Last I heard they scrapped the PvE part of the game?

Checking in with a Ryzen 7600 and an Nvidia 2060. Runs fine no complaints, medium-high settings. I didn't know there was outcry about poor optimization until I saw this article here.

You could say it a lot, so people make sure you’re very human in design.

I agree, but I struggle to put my finger on why. Is it their refusal to use any other words for Truman or The Truman Show? That read as really repetitive to me.

Rates needed to rise before it was going to come to pass.

Hey wait I’ve seen this one before!

“ The dotcom bubble burst when capital began to dry up. In the years preceding the bubble, record-low interest rates, the adoption of the Internet, and interest in technology companies allowed capital to flow freely, especially to startup companies that had no track record of success.”

#1 rule on the internet: don't feed the trolls. Downvote them, block them, move on. They're not here to engage in good faith.

Although a little outdated being from Nov 2022, Statistics Canada has a great breakdown of what contributes to the rising costs of food beyond transportation costs.

I'm not saying corporate profit-taking isn't affecting prices or that we shouldn't do anything about it, just that there's a lot going on here. Last time I looked Loblaw's profit margin had increased from 2% to 3% from 2020-2023. A 50% increase is a lot and I think they're scum for doing that, but it doesn't explain the overall ~30% increase in food prices.
