Damnit. The Rocketeer was *meh*, I always wanted a film based on the Cinemaware Rocket Ranger game. Now THAT would’ve been a cool movie :) (yes I know, the basic plot is the same, but the Cinemaware game felt more grown-up somehow)

I can confirm this as I tried to hatch eggs as a passenger in a car while in thick traffic. It will work if you are reaaally moving slowly, like in a traffic jam. i.e. less than 5km/h. But go around 10km/h and it won’t count the distance anymore. Biking will also not work for hatching eggs, as soon as you move too…

Isn’t the Titan Z still above those specs?

Ther term you are looking for is “Kraftfahrtstraße” and it is designated by a blue sign, although the exit signs will still be yellow.
A so-called Kraftfahrstraße is unrestricted if it has:

If you use cheap buttons, yes.

Exactly that is what they have proven wrong.
You can move VERY well in a shit ton of metal, you just cannot do stuff for as long as you could without it.
I’ve seen a member of our reenactment group catch a horse going wild in full plate armor. That means: Gambeson, chain mail, and plate on top - and not the thin stuff,…

Best raiding experience was back when we did Blackwing Lair. Our guild just had barely enough members for a 40-man-raid, and there were not many weekends where enough of them were online. So we were co-raiding with another guild. The rule was: You get the loot from boss a, we get it from boss b and so on. Sad thing…

Thanks Enlil, exactly that :)

unfortunately it can now, thank the EU for that. It wasn’t the case a few years back in Germany, but nowadays they don’t have to label it as an imported drink anymore.
Still, Tsingtao is quite nice, but tastes better freshly chilled out of a proper glass bottle. Like most things taste better out of bottles than out of…

not a problem with the smaller engines. With the A3 8L model you just remove the bumper and the whole other front end, undo the bolts, put some crates under the engine and roll away the rest backwards :D (you can practically remove everything that is in front of the engine, even with an S3, it is just a lot of cables…

A3 1.6 1998 model. You need a multi-angled extension to get the spark plugs out of their sockets. And you’ll probably rip the tiny spark plug cables in half trying to get them off without angled spark-plug-cable-pincers (yes, stuff like this exists).

That depends on the country actually. Afaik it is illegal in Britain because the money contains the face of the ruling monarch and to destroy it would be considered a crime agains royalty or something.
Fun fact: During the second world war jewish laborers in concentration camps were forced to create counterfeit money…

You could actually buy a Porsche 962 from german company Dauer.

Probably the “game” they had then was nothing like the trailer they made for the Expos. There was a nice article on Kotaku about trailers for trade shows and how they sometimes have nothing to do with the actual game that is later released (Bioshock Infinite comes to mind).

That was because the Amiga game (which came first) was basically done by a programmer lent to them by Commodore in a few sleepless months. They had great artists, but no programmers back then but already built up a lot of hype :D

still it sounds like you lock up your kid for emulating behaviour which he learned from watching adults do. So he wants to be “grown up” and acts like you would expect from a child. I find it more worrisome that somehow he thinks it is necessary to carry guns with him to protect himself and his sister.
I would find it…

No. The only thing I am saying is that you may well do as you please on the road as long as you accept the risks involved with it and will pay the price yourself if something goes wrong instead of burdening it onto the public.
The reasoning being that over here we have universal and mandatory healthcare (it is deducted…

so... what has a mini cooper to do with a reasonably priced car?
The name is SO wrong for that segment now, and the whole idea of the original is completely gone at this point. They should’ve gone for a Fiat Panda.

Somebody driving an unprotected vehicle and not wearing any safety equipment should be held liable for all induced cost after an accident that could’ve been avoided by wearing said safety equipment. That goes for loose trousers (ever seen denim burnt into a skin of a driver that skidded on Asphalt in Jeans?) as well…
