The important part is he was caught because he (massively) fucked up, not because the police caught him. That is well within the realm of possibility here. Even in 2025, even with whatever Palantir or whatever gets them, the police don't yet seem to have magic powers, and even someone who apparently couldn't think straight enough for "don't hang around in public with your face visible when you're the most wanted man in America" to be an overriding priority, seemed to have otherwise been successfully getting away.

Mangione got caught by being extremely retarded. What was it... he went to a busy McDonalds 1 state over in the middle of the day, wearing the same clothing and backpack, removed his mask, and had the murder weapon and a manifesto on him.

I don't know what your heuristics are. If it's a game you would like at all, there's enough of it that it's easily worth $30. It's the pinnacle of most of the genres it's attached to, a masterpiece in almost the traditional sense (one very competent guy polished it for 8 years, it's a completely realized coherent vision), and very fun.
Probably 15-20 hours to beat the part of the game that most people will stop at (having greatly enjoyed their time with it), and 100+ hours to optionally go beyond that if you still don't want to put it down.
The supposed "RNG problem" is a skill issue tbqh. I found that keeping a list of tasks and theories loosely sorted by likelihood, and playing each run flexibly with "I'll start out aiming for X but will pursue something else if that's where the rolls go", I was never bottlenecked to grinding on a single theory until very late in the game (much later than you would have gotten by your description), and almost every run moved at least something forward.
And by that point
But then again I just loved the basic drafting game and would take any excuse for another run. This would probably still be GOTY for me just for the main gameplay loop without most of the stuff beyond the first credits-roll.

You should play them if you haven't.
What happened last week? I mean this literally, it's was such a deluge that I feel like I forgot significant things in it. Asking here to sanity-check.
Is that it? Was there some more israel/gaza stuff? Trump admin actions? Some other twitter culturewar flareup that seemed to matter?
