I've been playing Gamedle recently. I tend to discover interesting games both as answers and while researching the info I have.

Pork?! These are all beef, baby.
Video games have a very different production flow to film. The same people editing dialog recording are also doing other sound work. The people cleaning mocap also do hand animation. It's not like film where you hit a brick wall for 90% of your crew if your filming isn't on schedule.
Things in the short term are done recording and aren't impacted. Things in the long term can move the resources to other tasks. If a strike goes for six months or a year, they will start seeing issues.
TLDR: The statistics only work if the host has to reveal a goat and offer to let you switch.
In the show the question is based on, the host didn't always open an incorrect door after a guess. He didn't always allow them to switch. He also offered money instead of opening a door at all in some cases. He could use these tools to get the outcome he wanted most of the time.
More biomes don't fix the fundamental flaw in the design. It treats planets the same way Raft treats islands. They become purely a resource hunt for the player, no matter what skin they have.
Raft gets away with it by having your base travel with you, being incredibly hostile, and being short enough that the loop doesn't get tiring.
NMS and Starbound struggle from the same issues. Infinite tiered worlds end up feeling the same, but also remove all meaning from the exploration. In Minecraft or Terraria you aren't going to be flying to a totally new place in five minutes, so you want to get to know your surroundings and put down some roots.
Travel time and not having tiered world progression makes the player care about where they are at instead of seeing it as a stepping stone.
I was in a record store a few months ago, saw a copy of Switched on Bach, thought it would be interesting, and picked it up. Blew me away. Then I googled it, learned the story and how groundbreaking it was.
Now I've got a few albums of hers from that era. Great stuff.
There are various methods, but from a practical standpoint it is gone regardless.
They are trans.
I've been reading through the books and I'm astounded by just how well the authors have thought through the little details.
I'm also even more impressed with the adaptation to TV now that I've read them. The only thing they weren't able to adapt was the difference in tone and mindset between the perspective characters.
Almost done with the Inaros books, looking forward to the unadapted books.
People still sculpt. Go look up Bobby Fingers on YouTube to get an idea of what sculpting looks like.
There are a variety of clays. From what I hear, most sculptors use some form of air-dry, not firing clay like pottery would use.
Nobody ever sculpted in marble. You would sculpt in clay, make a plaster mold, fine-tune the design, then meticulously transfer it to marble.
No comment on the spray bottle phone case?
