This and Descent are the reasons I play with an inverted Y axis to this day.

He has to be one of the least informed politicians in memory.

The Democratic Party is really two groups in a marriage of convenience: the Progressives and the Centrist. The only reason they haven’t split is the first past the post election systems used in the majority of the country and the fear of splitting the vote. The Centrists, unfortunately, seem far more willing to backstab a Progressive with momentum than the other way around.

I got this game on a 3-in-1 CD, bundled with Sim Isle and the OG Sim City. I already had Sim City, but it was a much older floppy release that, I think, was only in black and white. The Sim City on the CD was in color and came with some extra scenarios and tile sets.

The .me top level domain is nominally the TLD for the country of Montenegro, but in practice, it gets used more for its English meaning rather than for that country. The same thing happens with Tuvalu’s .tv TLD.

It looks like death certificates have a similar 50 year privacy period in Kentucky.

Finding the second one is a real “Where’s Waldo?”. If you hadn’t said two, I wouldn’t have noticed the one back row.

Strange they’re not offering an offline mode. They already have AI implemented for single player mode.

Surprised it didn’t go to overpriced. I’m sure the station was swimming in fines after that.

He’s gone off and joined the senate invisible! If you hadn’t plugged him to the wall he’d be pushing up daisies!

Surprised no one has posted this guy yet. Too on the nose?

I can’t see how anyone can negotiate with this man when he seems to go back on his agreements in less than a week.

The only modern show to approach that was 20 episode Prodigy seasons, but those were 1/2 hour episodes (less without commercials), so it works out to be the same amount of content as a 10 episode Strange New Worlds season.

Well, if he had, the attorney general will prosecute. Let me just look up the Texas AG’s name… oh.

The article calls it an internal tool, meaning it’s probably sanctioned by leadership. I don’t know, everything after the first paragraph is behind a paywall.

The city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, not the state of Victoria, Australia.

I can think of 40 more suitable people.

Her opponent is claiming fraud, without providing any evidence, and is refusing to acknowledge her win. So proud the US could help normalize that aspect of democracy.

Reminds me: If you’re interested in a book suggestion, try John Scalzi’s “Redshirts.” The ensigns on a legally-distinct-from-the-Enterprise clue in to the dangers of away missions and decide to do something about it.

10-15 years ago, Apple had a product built around this concept, the Fusion Drive. It was one physical device containing both types of storage that appeared to the user as a single drive. The OS would decide what files when on which storage medium based on usage. Unfortunately, it’s been long enough that they went to all SSDs all of the time that Apple is removing support for it in this year’s OS release.
