I don't have a lot to say myself, yet. I signed up for the beta mostly because people talk so positively of what Digg was like in the past. I never experienced that, as Digg was already on it's way out when I discovered it.
I'd love to hear from those who remember the golden age of Digg, as well as those just curious about the reboot themselves... What are you thoughts, expectations, hopes and concerns?

The International MSI League of Legends 2025 tournament check in!

Hi everyone - we're closing in on the end of the tournament with only 4 games left. Questions for discussion:
- Did you make a bracket with Riot's Pick'Em?
- If you did, how's your bracket looking?
- What games have you watched?
- Which games have surprised you most?
- Are you enjoying the Fearless Drafts? (For those curious, Riot updated how teams draft during each Best of 5. After a champ has been played, it's banned for the remaining Bo5.)
- What team(s) are you cheering for?
Tonight is
Spoiler: Teams playing tonight, July 9.
T1 vs Gen.GIf you haven't been keeping up, now is the perfect time to jump in if you enjoy watching pro-play League of Legends. The vods from previous games are available on Youtube (and I assume Twitch but I haven't checked). I don't really play much league, but watching is very fun with friends and we've been having nightly hang-outs on Discord to watch together.
Spoiler: Results from last night's series, July 8, FlyQuest vs BiliBili Gaming.
3-2 in favor of BLG. Game 2 was particularly heartbreaking for Fly especially when they were so close to winning. I think the entire series showed that they have lots of potential for growth. They had two rookies and they still took a team that came close to winning both MSI and Worlds 2024 to game 5! I hope they feel very proud of themselves and the games they played.Other random thoughts: The "Kalista Curse" has yet to be broken and I wish that Fly hadn't tempted fate by drafting it. One of my friends remarked that she [Kalista] must be performing really well in scrims for these teams to keep picking her even though it keeps failing :') Honestly, I really hope we don't see it again in the remaining games because it's such an instant "Oh no..." feeling.
This tournament has also made me realize that I miss the hyper-carry ADC/enchanter support meta A LOT. Don't get me wrong, pro play is exciting just because of the high skill ceiling but the drafts have been a little boring especially in bot lane. I want to see Zeri, Aphelios, maybe even Samira! I am keeping my fingers crossed that the upcoming patches will let them shine in Worlds.

My best friend is getting married soon and it’s a black tie event. I’m in a privileged position, I want to spend a little extra to dress well (some friendly fashion competition between the men, and my own vanity).
What I know: I want a tuxedo that will fit & look nicer than a rental from Men’s Wearhouse. I really like a tailored suit I bought from Suit Supply, but I’d rather not buy a tuxedo I’ll likely only wear once.
What I don’t know: Anything about businesses other than Men’s Wearhouse that do tuxedo rentals.
Does anyone have suggestions for businesses they’ve personally rented tuxedos from?
Some of the tuxedos at Suit Supply sell for around $750 USD. How much do non-Men’s Wearhouse tuxedo rentals cost?
Does a tailored tuxedo look that much better than a rental to justify buying instead of renting?

How many strings must you string from string cheese in order for it to be considered string cheese and not just eating a stick of mozzarella?
Friendly debate. String cheese is meant to be strung. Eating it without stringing it is just plain wrong and there are many ways to eat it incorrectly. 1 2 3 But what is the correct minimum number...
Friendly debate.
String cheese is meant to be strung.
Eating it without stringing it is just plain wrong and there are many ways to eat it incorrectly. 1 2 3
But what is the correct minimum number of strings that string cheese must be strung into in order for it to be string cheese?
Is splitting it into two mostly even pieces enough?
Or is three a minimum?
Perhaps you have high strung opinions on the number of strings a string cheese must be strung for it to qualify as more than a mere stick of mozzarella and require say nine as a minimum.45 votes -
