You just need to get invited by someone you are friends with.

It used to be you had to be friends for at least a week, but I think that isn't the case anymore.

It's really good if you are into moba-type gameplay.

Some people will compare it to something like overwatch, but it's really closer to Dota 2 with shooter combat. It's a cool mix of map-control/strategic elements of Dota with more twitchy aspects of arena-ish shooters.

I've really enjoyed it, but then again my two most played games of all time are dota and tf2.

In that case every country would add up to 100%, since the top category is "10 books or more".

It can vary depending on the context, but essentially it just means that you can only read/write at a fairly basic level.

For instance, imagine someone who reads at a 4th grade reading level. They can get through basic aspects of life, but get totally lost/overwhelmed if they are presented with anything more complex. For instance, they wouldn't be able to comprehend most official letters. (Thus is especially an issue in Germany since Amtsdeutsch seemingly tries to be intentionally complex....)

They are effectively locked out of most modern jobs, because they can't parse emails effectively or formulate a fitting reply.

It's also something that people are generally very self-conscious about and get pretty good at hiding.

Whether they are constitutional seems to be a fairly open source of debate currently.

But please based on wealth rather than income.

Rich people don't become rich from income.

I use freesync on my monitor between 48 and 144 hz.

The range depends on the specific monitor.

It's been years since I had to deal with MATLAB licenses, since basically everything in scientific computing/data science uses Python these days!

Yeah a similar policy in the UK (from 10ish years ago) is one of the biggest reasons for hugely inflated prices among small properties.

Obviously, the only real solution is to work to lower real-estate prices, but that would be unpopular with most home owners (who are a majority in the US).

Loading into World of War craft for the first time back in 2005 is probably the biggest.

Seeing all the people running around and doing their thing was incredible. It made me super excited to go explore the world.

My school offered a BA in physics. I never knew anyone who took it (I did the BS) but they claimed it was aimed at theater set- designers.

The target use case for large SD cards is high-resolution video recording.

Recording at 4k+ eats up space faaaaast. So you need both large-capacity as well as fast storage.
