I think we're talking about different things. There's a difference between not being allowed to play video games and having a video game schedule with max one hour a day vs an actual addiction, being unable to stop. In this thread we're referring to the people who treat it as a hobby, but who are not allowed to have it as a hobby.

Oh I agree the system is fucked and cobra is equally bad. Being forced into this system though I would urge people to have enough in savings so that if they are dropped tomorrow from insurance they can at least rest easy knowing they have health care. Individually be ready for that rainy day. Societally yes let's rip down our healthcare system

You are with your kin here

I mean, young people can't afford their houses, at some point something's gotta give, or yeah they'll sell them to corporations.

Yeah steams silence has been deafening through this. Itch came out and explained what was happening, GoG did this. All quiet from Steam.

That's okay, it's the purple on one the left. It's a big deal because as you can see, their network is more of a "hub and spoke" where all of the lines go through Manhattan. But if you want to go from Brooklyn to queens you have to take huge detours armnd roundabout ways to get there. This connects most of the lines at the edges

Kahn said looking back, she should have secured private health insurance as soon as she was laid off.

"I should have done COBRA, even though it was very expensive," Kahn said. "But yeah, hindsight is 20/20."

The near-$21,000 burden will probably lead to fewer vacations and a delay in having central air conditioning installed at her place, Kahn said.

She said she hopes others can learn from her misstep.

"It was my fault. I took the risk of not doing COBRA and that's forever on me," she said. "But if one person gets covered because they saw this story, then I would be happy about that.

Our system is fucked, that is for 100% sure. There should be no way that someone goes into medical debt because they were laid off, and we should fight to have a better system.

However, viewing the problem at the societal level and the individual level are different things. Societally we need to push for health care for all. Individually though - get COBRA, get on a spouse's plan, whatever you need to do. Don't risk it.

When was the last time anyone here ate at Arby's? It's one of those places for me at least that only gets brought up by my parents on where they want to go, and for me it's always ugh really?

It's so desperately needed. Anyone who has used the subway in NYC knows what a pain it is if you want to go between Brooklyn and queens. Best case you catch the G which if you're going to the outer side of the borough is still a long way out of your way. This would be a critical link between the very sprawling lines, and definitely will revitalize the outer edges

Means they're aware of libre office and they're scared, so that's positive. I'm guessing the European countries switching over is making them nervous.
