And their bedtime brew (with vanilla and nutmeg) is the best decaf I have found too!

I bought Reus 2 (A puzzle god game) at launch last month - game changer!

Finally a game that I enjoy playing on the deck and actually want to play after work on my commute etc. highly recommend it.

Norris was shedding even more though!

They could have both made it back safely if they went slower, but good luck getting them to do that after that fight.

I do recommend the stormlight short stories, they are both quite good.

What info are you specifically looking for?

Mistborn and Stormlight all

There are shards that represent certain concepts, ruin, preservation, honour, cultivation etc. people hold these shards, but are, influenced by it's intent the longer they hold it.

Generally, each shard has picked a planet/solar system to settle and create/enhance their population.

Each systems magic tends to end up mirroring in some way the intent of the shard that created it. Honours require oaths, Ruin's requires stealing power off others etc.

Some magic systems work for their users off planet (you have seen this!), others are more difficult.

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?

[–] Nighed@sffa.community 3 points 5 months ago

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.

Men accused of pushing cyclists into ditches for fun go on trial in France

Two defendants could face up to five years in prison after spate of incidents in country’s rural south-west

Two men accused of driving up to cyclists in rural south-west France and pushing them into ditches for fun have gone on trial in Toulouse for organised violence and could face up to five years in prison.

The two men, aged 20 and 22, were arrested last year after a spate of cyclists being pushed off their bikes on quiet country roads. One victim told the newspaper La Dépêche: “It was April … I’d gone out on my bike for the afternoon. When I got to a little country road … I felt a car was following me silently. It was driving very slowly behind me when it could easily have overtaken me. Then after a few minutes it drove up beside me. The car’s passenger suddenly pushed me down.”

Another man described being on a weekend cycle ride with two friends when a car pulled up beside him and the passenger allegedly reached out a hand and pushed him into a ditch.

At least 12 cyclists were hit over a period of several months, some sustaining injuries including a wrist fracture and a collar-bone fracture.

 

“It is rare to find a human who can fight in the skies well enough to be a challenge for me.”

It looks like it clipped the ground after an emergency landing. There may also be a separate communication issue?
