The F1 icon keeps appearing and disappearing too, there is someone desperately turning things off and back on again! 🤣

Edit: they fixed it!

Is their lap number graphic broken? Not sure I have seen it the entire race?

That is an awful colour scheme, shouldn't the royal domains be a recognisable colour?

That's a fair point.

If you were single and earning an MPs salary it could be a bit of a no brainer - could you get a other equally or better paying job within a few months? Considering you have been a politician for the last 5 years not an SME in whatever field?

If you had a family on that salary, unsure. If you agreed it with your other half as a planned move, maybe?

Think of it as a safety net, if you lose the election you lose your job.... But the winnings of that bet would then help you out.

If you win, you keep your reasonable lucrative job, no problem.

If you have lots of tabs up top you can't see the names, vertical tabs lets you see more/all of the tab titles.

I have been using the tree style tabs add-on for years, it's amazing.

Isn't this functionality already built into the default web UI?

There should be options for hard difficulty that are due to the AI being better, not just getting massive buffs.

Some of the examples given were about the AI not even knowing about certain game mechanics!

But when you have a problem, you complain to your representative that represents your area and knows all the details. That's a powerful thing.

In the UK at least there are a lot of seats that are swung by those holding them rather than their party.

That way still ends up with candidates that you didn't vote for though, the ranked choice method means you always have a vote in each round.

In any round though you only have 1 vote still, it's just collecting the votes ahead of time? The only thing you lose is knowing who is in each round in advance?

In your example, wouldn't the same candidates have been knocked out in each round regardless?

More than 1 million cubic kilometres of lava. Enough gasses to cause a mass extinction event.

Ugh, life took ages to get started. Lazy bacteria!

It's still a hell of a long time if you consider that the entirety of recorded (ish) history is only a few thousand years long.

Updated comment to remove an order of magnitude.

It's not X turning into Y when it comes to evolution. There were all kinds of different dinosaurs, that evolved I to all kinds of different niches. Most of those then went extinct due to rocks falling from the sky, or the entirety of India turning into a huge volcano etc.

So it's not that a T-Rex turned into a chicken, it's that T-Rexs lived alongside other dinosaurs that developed feathers and filled more niches etc. those that survived eventually became birds. (Have you ever seen an Emu up close?!? No wonder the Australians lost to them 🤣)

Disclaimer: I have no specific knowledge. Also, remember this happened over (billions? hundreds of millions) of years.

Other comments about just not noticing feathers are valid too.

Wow, this is a long read. Well worth it for anyone who got caught in Rome TW2's hype and subsequent disappointment.

Would be good to see what other games he later worked on. Will try to remember to look him up on linkedin when I have time

That's the routers business model though

A) discord

B) make friends with one person that does this or plays with other groups, then join them when they are playing with others
