The “14 years” part of the headline is particularly annoying. This thing that happens several times a year will happen the second time this month next week! It’s like a headline about getting three paychecks in a month and how it won’t happen again for six months. Technically true, but it’s still a regular paycheck.

I read your name as Coffee Jerky and honestly I would absolutely try that.
Are you not planning on getting older? Time marches on.
I personally like the early access model. You get the choice to play the game now, as-is, or wait for the developers to call it finished. Last Epoch is a great example.

All it takes is a three second sample, according to “The AI Dilemma” on YouTube. It’s about an hour long, but it has a lot of really good information.
Reddit may not even suffer if it primarily loses users that browse with third party apps or on desktop with adblock. That would be a net benefit for reddit based on average revenue per user.
Fresh produce is completely raw, frozen is typically parboiled (very slightly cooked), and canned is completely cooked. Frozen is typically the best balance between freshness and convenience. The only veggies I buy fresh are things I’m going to eat raw, like broccoli for eating with dips.
