Forsaken was pretty similar to Descent.

Access road.
I don't know an English term for it, but in Danish we call them pork chip properties because of the shape. It happens when someone splits their property to make a second house in the previous backyard.
Oxford Professor: Cycling is 10 times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities
I don't think it's required to be a professor to tell this. It's pretty obvious that a 2 ton car is worse for the climate than a 15 kg bicycle. They also do completely different things though.
The article seems to bash on electric cars for no particular reason.
You know what would be even more environmentally friendly than even bicyling to work? Staying at home. Working from home could save a lot more and doesn't require infrastructural investments.
Anyway, the percentages mentioned are still quite low. It would make a larger difference to focus on other kinds of transport than personal vehicles.
There are larger fish to catch. One of them is the ships. A lot of them transport fuel. Changing personal transport to electric cars, regardless of how efficient they are or not, will also have the effect of lowering the amount of fuel to be shipped around. The environmental impact of distributing fuels is larger than the impact of personal vehicles, so by all means, we should change as many industries and transport forms to electricity instead of fuel, including personal vehicles.
This will be he same as when he had to call the Mexican president to beg him to say that they'd pay for the wall.
"Kiss me where the wind blows"
Give your nickel to Wikipedia.

Tl;dr: 6000 BCE in ancient Iraq. It predates money, so they'd pay in whatever they used the land for.
It's perfectly good for things where you don't need an accurate answer, but just can't be bothered to do yourself. A good question would be like "I'm going on a weekend trip to Paris with my wife. Give me two choices with differently priced options for schedules Friday to Monday with the main attractions.. both options should be less than €500"
It'd take about a weekend to do that research manually with any search engine. AI can deliver it within minutes. So, forget about having it do fool proof explicit programming, in which it would fail. It's force is in doing cumbersome mondane stuff fast.
I think the AI hype will die when it gets enshittified enough.
At first they'll start injecting sponsored results, then it's going to be pay up or watch 3 adds before access, while still showing the product-placed content regardless.
Companies will be offered a "professional subscription" just to use it without the first two ads.
Right now, it's free, because they want people to get addicted to he ease of answers that was previously supplied by search engines.
At no point will they ever generate the content that people are searching for. Googles main mission is to obstruct people from getting that.
Best case, wiith enough competition, AI is just going to be another layer to see through, because previous versions of the internet has been made unusable by advertising.
Hope they are ready.
They young or the fascists? Because the fascists don't look to be in much shape for a proper beating.
Found at Brodega skateboards (Denmark)
I'm not affiliated, just found it funny.
A local skatepark held an official opening inviting Rune Glifberg and Nicky Guerrero to do a demo. The weather was tricky, but in between rain they managed to pull off a few tricks in the deep end. I didn't get a good photo of Rune.

Ignition had different boost sounds for each car.
