20 to 80% off qualifies as way more than "slightly"

This is the first launch of the program and they're still in a pilot phase. It will presumably roll out to more states (maybe all?) Next year

Fwiw, the steam snap is open source

Right or wrong, they committed a crime at the time. A change in law doesn't really invalidate the crime committed. That differs from this where the conviction itself was based on faulty evidence or procedure.

Just for clarity sake, I don't really agree with this but I do think it's a valid difference between the situations

My group is almost exclusively dads with fulltime jobs. We play remote (FoundryVTT), run one game a week that runs between 2 and 4 hours.

What's the point of a separate community if you don't post relevant content to them

Just be thankful for areas that actually have training courses. In my state it's literally a fee and a signature. Really not even that anymore

Given inflation, current estimates put the cost of a 4 year degree at about 180k in 2040, so not an unreasonable savings estimate. That number is both available from online estimates as well as what my own financial planner gave me when discussing my daughter's college fund
