VentraSqwal , in No winner in Monday's Powerball drawing has the next jackpot approaching $1 billion

On the one hand, what a waste of money. But I can’t help but imagine if I won, that would change my life…

RagingNerdoholic ,

Congratulations!

Now you’re fucked…

Kerred ,

If you want to be depressed, look at what happened to most lottery winner’s lives. Or an average NFL player. Or anyone gets a huge cash windfall.

The best situations are gradual increases in wealth

Maybe so, but I’d take my chances with hundreds of million dollars.

Wear a full body spandex suit when you collect, so nobody can identify you. And spend very gradually. And never speak of it.

Klear ,

The odds of winning the jackpot are basically the same whether you enter or not.

elucubra ,

If you don't enter, you have certainty of not winning

Klear ,

…and if you do enter, you are still certain not to win for all reasonable definitions of “certain”.

A Tax on People bad at Math.

ji17br ,

Funny you say that. There’s about 300 million possible numbers so at $2 per ticket you only need to win over $600 million for the lottery to be plus EV. Factor in 37% tax (which is what Google says is the average rate, but may be different depending on state) you “only” need a jackpot of about 950 million to profit.

I play it. I know that the odds make me more likely to die in the time it would take me to claim the prize than to actually win, but someone has to win it and the lotteries in Europe and the UK give a lot of money to good causes.

Wolf ,

Lottery paid for my college education so yeah I don’t mind throwing 2 bucks at it every once is a while.

Literal wankpanzers, the whole lot of “conservatives”.

Chetzemoka , in Texas troopers told to push children into Rio Grande, deny water to migrants, records say

Very Christian behavior

CeruleanRuin ,

Religion of peace.

Peace from caring about others.

CeruleanRuin , in Texas troopers told to push children into Rio Grande, deny water to migrants, records say

How is this not considered attempted manslaughter at the very least? Even non-citizens have rights under our own laws. Whoever issued those orders should be dishonorably discharged and jailed. Seems pretty cut and dried to me.

Bonk , in Handheld Gaming Consoles Will Soon Require Replaceable Batteries

Can we make the serial numbers editable on them?

Ghoelian ,

Why would you want to do that?

SheeEttin ,

Probably so that they can evade bans when cheating.

Hi.

Hilarious. The Voyager app bugs out like this from time to time for some reason. Should I keep it in the title?

torknorggren ,

No, you should change it to “high.”
