Sorry, but no. The Volvo 850 was a very, very spacious car for its day. A 2m tall person could drive in it for hours on end and get out relaxed thanks to the comfortable seats.
But it was rejected as a police car in the US in part because it was too cramped. Excuse me?
How much room do you need? What kind of gear do you…

Seeing things like this I always have to think back to the old Mercedes S-class test on Top Gear where Clarkson demonstrated their night vision in the dashboard. Something like this could help in these conditions I assume? Or would the cold winds dim it down to be useless?

Saga prices were already nuts 15 years ago, even though the game never was THAT rare. The Euro version (with the case always falling to pieces) was already going for hundreds of Euros when I got a japanese sealed box with spinecard for 49€. Granted... there is a slight language barrier in reading the text...

The Witcher 3 also did not run too well on Xbox 360/PS3 back then. Granted, better than GTA V, but still not exactly stellar, and with worse graphics than the Switch version.
What was bad back then was that even the PC version at its best hat noticeably worse graphics than the trailers were showing, and CDPR was…

Yeah, nobody now remembers the Witcher1 - it was so bad, that they basically revamped the whole game and put it out as a free “special edition” update, clocking in at several GB (back then unheard of).
I still have the original, unaltered version around here somewhere and hoo boy, it feels rough, almost unplayable at…

The main problem does imho not lie with critical role, but with articles like these who fail to grasp the basics of pen&paper roleplay.
It is a form of escapism, I’d compare it to improvised theater without a stage to play on. Instead of a script you have a gamemaster and a loose set of rules to guide the participants…

Those numbers are really good, though with Omikron being a more infectuous, but apparently not as-severe strain, that was to be expected.
But what we do not know about are long-term effects of a covid infection. In some school classes, about 4% of the kids suffer from long covid, they still have problems after 2 months…

say what? Over in Europe, they are closing one after another as the cruise line companies cancel their options for more ships and save money on refitting/overhauling their existing fleet. That has already cost thousands of people in that field their jobs in the past decade alone. Specialised people who then move to…

Not in a Sono Motors Sion. Probably sunny out there, so you get a little charge to get you “somewhere” “eventually” (the sion has solar panels in its bodywork to generate some extra juice just by standing around -

Well in Europe, you can not only request from every company that they disclose everything they have on file about you, you acn also request that they DELETE everything, and they HAVE to comply within 30 days. (apart from necessary information to complete any outstanding transactions or if there are legal reasons,…

ah, that attitude goes both ways I’m afraid. Saw Bruce Shelley (of Age of Empires fame) over here giving a lecture about game companies and their challenges, and the open discussion with him after the event was more interesting (and eye-opening) than the topics before.

you got suspended for WHAT?
Shit like that is illegal in most countries. Like, even in Germany, companies tend to put in clauses in their contracts that the salary may not be discussed with other employees, but these clauses are not legally binding. (and the rest of the contract is not affected because of the standard…

100, 120, 130 - some places are even 80km/h (and in most of those you are LUCKY if the traffic even moves that “fast”. Ask people from Cologne)

And yes, sometimes variable speed limits also apply. Bremen is iirc the first region to only have restricted Autobahn routes (120km/h upper limit everywhere)

If we assume that the Chiron can brake as good as a Koenigsegg, that would still mean that it would take him about 450m to come to a complete halt from that velocity.
Put that in contrast with a stopping distance from 100-0 which is around the 30-35m mark in an emergency stop for somewhat sporty cars.
Yeah. If someone…

Do you want to hear something really crazy about the gray imports?
For Germans, it could actually be cheaper in some cases to buy a car from a German manufacturer that was first sold to the US, then re-imported.
If you had the right contacts, you could get one with EU spec, that was deemed to be retrofit in the US, but…

Nothing that you are describing is done manually anymore in any company I know. All done through automated testing, they began introducing these methods almost 8 years ago, so I am sure all mid-to-major companies (should) have adopted it by now.
Even back then, there were special courses for QA testers, teaching them…

Not in the US though ^^
And yes, depending on the department it was great. But I think that’s correct for every company, management can be your friend one day, and hit you into the ground for no apparent reason the next.

I can only give the advice to get familiar with automated testing methods. And also with “device…

The person slowing down well in advance when traffic in front of him slows down should receive a medal. If all people drove like him, traffic on the roads would be more relaxed and fluent. The assholes that absolutely HAVE to overtake and then move into tight spots and break hard are the ones who cause mile-long…

I would disagree. QA, if done right, needs understanding of coding and game mechanics. In the last game company I was working, QA also started out as the department that “always played the newest games, found bugs and reported them back to the game teams”. In short, the devs hated QA, QA laughed about the devs having…

hm, maybe because I was playing most of the time on an RP-PVE server, I mostly had a friendly community all around. Originally started playing on a PVP-server, and it was... hard. (do you know how hard it was leveling a holy priest on a PVP server 15 years ago? :D )
It all went south when they started the LFG thing. On…
