It is in half the world, but Israel is in the northern hemisphere so the wrong half for that line of thinking

I saw two guys riding those monowheel things in 5 pm traffic on a 50mph road today, didn't know they could go that fast, it was crazy

While I can't say I've paid more for less as a whole, I've definitely had a higher fun to dollar with SC than many other more finished, flashier games. It's what you make of it and the people you meet along the way, just like any other MMO. It definitely has its warts and issues, but I think a lot of people also hate it because they were told it was bad and evil and I don't think that's really true. It has the trappings of any large game service products which people call greedy but it does cost a lot to run. I think a lot of the criticism boils down to that's a lot of money and not a lot of fast progress, and that's fair but this game is also unique in being public from a far too early point of development and many other games with smaller scopes are just as slow when developing a new engine/IP (relative to the scope) but the public doesn't see much until we get to just about this point in development.

DSP is pretty good, definitely feels like 3d factorio but has a bit of a different philosophy on how production and logistics work. The latest major update added enemies and military management to the game, which gives it a better focus for your production.

I went to an airshow a few years ago and the F22 raptor demo team was doing their show, which was amazing and the recruiter was working his pitch into the show the whole time. Between the talking points they would play music and the one that stood out the most was BYOB by System of a Down, which is a complete and total 180 to what they were pitching. It was incredible the cognitive disconnect.

I think it's the last episode of Fate/Stay Unlimited Blade Works

Either trueNAS or unraid work as a vm in Proxmox, but there's some caveats. You have to pass the whole hba/lsi pcie device to the vm so you can't split the backplane of the server.

I'd try searching with the term pitch, as that is the typical term for an even spacing of an array of things.

It was Tic Tac Toe I believe

Yep, only played 2 hours so far but it's been enjoyable.

Nasal strips don't stop your mouth from flopping open, or keep you from swallowing your tongue, both of which are common causes of snoring.

Aircraft Maintenance Tech here, this is not a Boeing QA problem, nor did it cause an unsafe scenario, but did prompt a return to gate. On these aircraft the windows are a laminated tempered glass/polycarbonate sandwich almost 3/4in thick and are designed to survive impacts at high speed with large birds, ice and hail. I have personally shattered one once and the window was still perfectly structurally sound. The most common fault with the windows is either a delamination of the layers that causes a warped area of vision or the electrical heating elements go bad/start arcing inside the pane. Both scenarios happen say once every 6-8 months in a 15 plane fleet, so not very often but it does happen. The maintenance limits are surprising too,only need to be replaced if it limits the pilots vision(their call) or if the heater doesn't work or is arcing. I've also seen pilots call small things "cracks" or other imaginative language and it was a small thing, still needs to be fixed but not worth the drama. Long story long, things wear out, things fail but don't worry about the windows, they are gonna hold.
