You can straight up rent a “mom”, where a middle aged woman joins you for an event or similar while being nice and supportive.

For future reference: If it’s not in south-eastern part of North America, assume it’s a crocodile.

Because the only other aligator species in the world is a third the size and lives in a small part of China.

England sits at a yearly mean “sunshine hours” of 1538. If it wasn’t for the western and northern parts it would be be one rank higher.

English people just love to complain about the weather, despite it raining ~50% more in Wales and Scotland.

It’s Factorio, and it’s pretty good at giving you little dopamine hits as you complete smaller automation goals and expand.

As for people who play “work” games in their free time, the joy is often that they’re doing it on their own terms. It’s like how some car mechanics have a restoration/project car at home, or professional programmers make their own things.

At least the driver woke up once he hit land.

Despite what many people think/have heard, most places do not have a specific law against doing loops in a roundabout. And when they do it is often a local ordinace(mostly small towns trying to prevent a local car community from driving up and down the main street all night). Although other laws or regulations can apply depending on circumstances.

Things like impeding/obstructing traffic, careless/reckless driving, noise ordinance, etc. But if you’re driving around one in an industrial area at night, the worst you’ll get is probably some accusing questions and a “warning”.

Most of the time they’re just lying about things like this.

It’s banned in several European countries like Germany, France, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Norway, Iceland and Greece. And it’s pending legislation in several others. As to why it wasn’t EU law already: Some of the legislations are pretty new so it wasn’t considered as something the majority would approve until they started implementing their own laws. On top of that several EU countries have pretty strong homophobic communities.

Countries like Poland. In 2020 the EU was witholding funding for parts of Poland, because they established “LGBT-free zones”. And the last one was only made invalid by the Administrative court last month.

Cape Curig in northern Wales has the second heaviest rainfall in Europe with 2700mm with 206 days a year. The first place goes to Cetinje in Montenegro, which has 3300mm during the rainy season. They have less rain than English towns in July, and then they get 300-500mm a month in October through March, averaging 136 days of rain.

There is some C in the game as well:

It’s 99% written in x86 assembler/machine code (yes, really!), with a small amount of C code used to interface to MS Windows and DirectX.

Yeah, Quake 2 recommended a Pentium 133, and that was released two years earlier(the AMD equivalent was released only a year and a half before the game). It required a Pentium 90 which was three years old, but it didn’t run smooth from what I remember.

That sort of requirement for a major component today would be considered self-sabotage for most non-vr pc games.
