Just watched a play through at https://youtu.be/i5QV-J3JlAY and I can definitely say that the graphics in this game would have blown 9-year-old me away in 1987! Really impressive

Anything "can" happen. But having driven and cycled many thousands of miles I'm convinced the probability of being run down/driven into by someone who has made eye contact is a lot lower than by someone who has not, so e

You put "medicore content" in place of (I assume) "mediocre content".

One thing I don't understand is why mortgage payments are fixed in nominal terms over the terms of the repayment plan. This has the effect of meaning they are most painful on month 1 and can be almost trivial by month 360 since they&#x

Opel Ampera was the answer a decade ago (series petrol hybrid with 50km EV range and 400km petrol range) but they didn't sell well and this architecture was all but abandoned.

I agree with many elements of your argument here. I would personally add though that there are multiple "you"s. I like to imagine the elephant, and the rider. The elephant (habitual, non-conscious behaviour) is powerful, strong an

I believe the model is "100% pay for 80% of the hours and 100% of the output". This is usually accompanied by hand waving talk of "improving productivity" but I don't see how it will work realistically. If you were
