There's a dog statue somewhere that's polished like this too because people pet the dog.

Not only on Switch 2. There was at least one Tony Hawk Pro Skater game that did this.
If I remember the episode of Guru Larry, the developer noticed their rights to the IP were set to expire, so they went to shit out one last game as fast as possible. They had to get the game published by a certain date, as in discs on store shelves by this date. The game was not going to be ready in time, so they put the tutorial level on the disc to print and distribute it while they finished the game, which would then be a multi-gigabyte download. Meaning that a physical copy of the game is worthless once the servers shut down.
ffs, personal shit on personal devices, work shit on work devices. That way you don't fat finger dick picks to colleagues.
In moon landing units that's ~186 miles per hour, which is around three times the speed limit of an average American interstate highway. I would not expect the average passenger car to be able to achieve that speed, but there are sports cars that can. You're probably looking at an uprange Corvette, some of the higher end Porches, a lot of Ferraris, Lambroghinis etc. Something Jeremy Clarkson would describe in an impressed tone of voice. It is my understanding that a lot of supersport motorcycles are limited to exactly that speed; most liter bikes have no problem powering themselves that fast, the question is maintaining control. If there's a pothole or some sand or a slight curve, will the rider survive encountering it at 3 miles a minute?
Going that fast in a car, you start to wonder how long the tires are going to hold up. At its top speed, a Bugatti Veyron will actually run out of tires before it runs out of gas.
In New World landing units, it's ~161 knots. This is very close to the V~NE~ of a Cessna 172 Skyhawk. The Never Exceed speed, top of the red arc. Go faster than that and the airplane is just going to break. It's the approximate cruise speed of a Beechcraft Bonanza and the higher end of landing speeds for a Boeing 737.
Should we break up? Wedding's in five minutes.
I could see having lights on a somewhat sophisticated timer. Like having bedroom lighting that simulates dawn, fades on etc. Maybe making a thermostat a little bit more sophisticated. I'd like to live in a world where I could trust the power company to tell me when electricity is abundant and scarce but we're gonna have to win Civil War 2 before we get that. My toilet and faucets do not need any digital technology at all.
I'll tell you the most important thing to keep in mind when playing Battletech: Have a good time. Sometimes ya just gotta open up an alpha strike at point blank range, overheat and stackpole. When you do, make it as hilarious as you can.
Mocha the all hearing...some kinda Rex I imagine. What breed is Mocha, OP, a Cornish Rex?
I have never actually played a game of tabletop battletech. I've been a fan of the Mechwarrior sim games since I was a kid (Mechwarrior 2: 31st Century Combat blew my 9 year old brain) and I rather like the novels, they're a guilty pleasure of mine.
Big jump from a mercenary company to the battle of Tukayyid. Comstar brought 50 regiments to that fight and butt wrecked five whole clans. That's a biggie.
Looks like a nice warm spot for a birthday bask.
I'm contemplating the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?"
I posted these end tables here awhile ago.
The carcasses turned out pretty well but I was never happy with the drawers. I implemented them as the world's worst piston fit drawers, they had like a quarter inch of slop so they were less drawers and more boxes that fit in a hole.
I had some time on my docket so I remade the drawers, converted them to side hung, fitted them better to the space provided, and lengthened them. I had just enough poplar to make an additional drawer back, so I implemented @[email protected] 's suggestion and added a secret compartment. I haven't made the stops yet so it will just pull right on out but I've made a piece of furniture with a secret compartment in it. Now I need something cool to put in it. Maybe a smallish bottle of scotch and a pair of glencairns?
Sometimes gravity pulls her wrong.

Reminds me a little of CD digital audio. The original Red Book audio standard hasn't really been improved upon because it's uncompressed audio which covers basically all of the range of human hearing within the capabilities of any speaker we could build. It's uncompressed because in the early 80's when the tech hit the market, it was completely unfeasible to include the CPU and RAM needed to decompress audio in real time.
Shrimp has more color receptors because he doesn't have enough neurons to run trichromacy, so he sees in EGA.
