Probably not. The US electric grid is 60hz and France is 50hz. An inverter large enough to rectify the AC electric into DC then invert back into 60hz AC would be absolutely massive. It would also be severely inefficient. I'm not sure what system them will be bringing but I'd guess it's something like what the US military uses overseas.

never bought a paper map. Have picked up one at a park or something, but haven't done that in a decade.

Eating fast food. I do a ton of driving for my job and am frequently hours from home. I could pack my own meals, but the company covers lunch if I'm away from the office. I don't have to stop for any health reason, I just don't really like the taste after five years of the same things over and over. I'd be more ok with it if there were more options, but I'm in a rural part of the country.

I'm holding on at least till the stock split

That seems malicious, never attribute to malice what you can attribute to incompetence. Valve's non-standard employee structure means nobody has to work on TF2. There are a lot of other fun things to work on at Valve, not some decades old game that doesn't make a ton (relative) of money anymore. This is probably the biggest flaw of Valve.

play bot? I'm not quite sure what you mean, but ya all sorts of bots are flooding TF2. There are the normal aim-bots, but they also spam noise makers, voice chat, and text chat. They will also try and vote kick and normal player.

TF2 is in a near unplayable state. Valve has neglected it and as a result it's not hard for people to bypass the anti-cheat. This has resulted in bots overtaking the game. This has been a problem for years, but there have been some recent pushes to get Valve's attention. First was #savetf2 which resulted in Valve tweeting that the "heard us" and had things planned. Well nothing happened and now we're trying again. #fixtf2 is the newest push and has come with extra steps from the community. Many people, including myself, have switched our reviews of TF2 to negative to hopefully get Valve's attention.

I've never clicked an ad, but that doesn't mean they were entirely ineffective. There have been a few times where I've seen an ad then went and searched for the product to find reviews and things.

I have a PC for all my games except one, Bloodborne. I have a PS4 and that's the only thing I've used it for.

That would probably be up to the judge. Theoretically house arrest can be set at any home which could include an out of state address.

He can't pardon himself in these cases. They are New York state felonies, which means the governor of NY would have to pardon him. If they were federal, then he could maybe pardon himself.

This isn't "new insights," its just some statistics. I'm happy that Apple is gathering this info, but it doesn't do anything for the people who already have it. As someone with tinnitus, this isn't worth getting excited over.
