Even if they wanted to, a lot of PhDs take longer than 4 years. My program averages 5.5 (with 4 being very rare and considered "early") and someone I know in physics say 6 or 7 is common. Those programs are going to have a large drop in admission. I'm on my way out and will finish at 4.3 years, I'm the first one in my class to graduate

I'd rather not live in a society where theft is necessary to survive

Also a ton of games have day 1 patches that you'd need to download anyway from their servers. I don't recall seeing standalone installers for patches like we used to have. So buying a physical copy just makes you feel good rather than actually avoiding the problem with digital copies.

Two years ago when I built my new computer, there were something like two cases that actually had a slot for a disk drive. I did end up getting one for my older games and it is nice

Thanks. I found it there too, but I was more surprised by the removal. It didn't seem particularly over the top for them.

Or micron reintroduces consumer ram while their competitors are locked into the bubble price. They then proceed to monopolize the market and things get worse

Sorry, I don't actually know any, but I guessed the kitchen jokes about pansexual are related to the "pan" part. I then though it feasible there were shopping jokes about bisexuals because of the "bi" (homophone for buy) part.

Would a pansexual be a bisexual who's had enough shopping jokes?

We had a mandatory training earlier this year (the typical "don't harass your coworkers stuff"), but the account they sent the link from was a a 32 character string of random letters and numbers followed by a domain I didn't recognize. I reported it as phishing since none of the links led to the company's domain. I got in trouble about a month later because the deadline had passed and I hadn't taken the training.
