How long do you think, Reinhart, Mercy, Mcree, Lucio/Symmetra and 2 semi flex will be fun? I hated LoLs inflexible comp compared to Dotos freedom of choices.

That CoD VR Trailer for Future War looks fucking amazing. It looked like I was playing Starship Troopers, not call of duty. I'm on board. Even if its just for the fucking singleplayer lol.
watched a touch of the sony e3 and it felt like a waste of time. one game that looked kinda interesting rest was dumb. the Kojima thing just seemed to be annoying and basically saying "I'm Kojima so buy my game"
Any legal people here? I got pulled over by a cop a couple months ago and he tried to write me a ticket but his electronic system wasn't working, so he let me off with a warning. I got a letter in the mail today saying I missed a court date last week/ didn't pay a fine which I had no way of knowing I was responsible for. What should I do/ expect? Planning to call the court first thing tomorrow and try and get it sorted out.

Not a lawyer or legal person, however I did just finish writing my PEng exam a month or so ago, which is a huge test on Contracts, Legal systems, and Liability. That said, I have no idea how different the laws in the US are from Canadian Law. I assume they are similar. Take this with a grain of salt;
Its a shit situation, but if they were to give you a ticket in person that is considered in most jurisdictions being "served". In most jurisdictions if you have been "served" there is no potential excuse of ignorance and it is on you.
The only way you could get out of it is if you had some sort of proof you weren't actually served, but I'd guess that is likely impossible at this point unless you have dash cam video with the conversation where he said he'd let you off with a warning. Effectively it would be your word against his, and given that you didn't show up to the court date (I know it is kinda bullshit, zzz), he would likely win that. At which point you are likely (depends on judge) looking at extra court fee's being added on top of whatever the ticket / charges against you are.
I'd probably just pay and get it over with personally, but if its a matter of principle, you should talk to a lawyer. They'd give you much better advice than anyone here ever could. I'd shoot a quick and dirty BCC email to the first couple lawyers that show up when you google "[your location] traffic court attorney". One of them should likely give you a quick answer of whether its worth pursuing or not.

You don't normally get given your court date during the traffic stop though do you? I thought they ticketed you, then you received a court summons at a later date. If you did receive the summons and ignore it/didn't notice, then your defence is a fair bit weaker
Uni will work you 100x harder than highschool did, I can tell you that. On the same token, I think most Universities have a much much wider variety of people than highschool does. I definitely had a significantly better social experience in uni. I think people are much more likely to fit in and find likeminded peers than in highschool.
Trying to afford food, housing, tuition and books and shit was hella stressful though. Not sure if that is an issue for you or not.
I found uni 100x easier than school, it's just essays and shit in a field you're interested in that you can compile from wikipedia sources and scholarly articles whereas school was multiple exams in every field and imo a lot more work to do (even though i never did it).

Also +++ social life.
It might be easier because motivation but there's a lot more work to do in uni tbh. That's from my pov at least.

School is constant work every day and uni was blocks of work due in weeks so there's a lot of free time to chill. Obviously degrees vary though.
