Agh, I should have checked with it being a new week! Ahh well, there will be others in the future
I see that Aero GPX has a demo I can try too!

I suppose she was probably a monarchist herself, even if that's not why her death got so much ridiculous fuss
Elizabeth's funeral took place over one day. If you're counting the lying-in-state, you should also count it for Kim
Anecdotally, I'm in the UK and Discord has never asked me for ID. I don't have nitro, though, so if it's a nitro thing I would not know
There's a great video of the Outer Wilds devs watching someone speedrun their game, and at the end of it one of them jokes, "We made a very short game"
This article is about to make my steam wishlist a good chunk longer, I think
There is also a UK petition, which has itself cleared the required threshold. Are those the out-of-EU signatures you mean?
The Sun is an insult to the craft of journalism and shohld not be posted anywhere
The actual paper the number comes from (Fate of Empires by John Glubb) is complete bullshit, though. Even the cherry-picked examples it uses, which are limited strictly to the surroundings of the Mediterranean, don't use any kind of consistent criteria for when an empire starts or ends. He tries to count "Alexander (and his successors)" as one coherent entity and then picks an end year in which all of them had either already collapsed long ago or would not do so for many decades to come. He cuts centuries off of the Roman Empire's lifespan by just saying that the empire was unstable and getting invaded a lot (and ignoring the Eastern Empire entirely). HIs reckoning of the "Arab Empire" includes three separate caliphates, and the end date isn't even the actual end of any of them
Other than that, no, it does not attempt to find an average in the sense of a mean lifespan. It actually does argue that 250 years for an empire can be compared to a human living 70 years.
If we go by impact factor (a measure of how often the articles a journal publishes are cited elsewhere), various Nature publications are six of the top ten journals in the world and Nature itself is 15th
It's normal for CG artists to do their best to make their work look like real life and not CG, though. Death Stranding is clearly attempting to look as realistic as they can manage
Presumably because it's Amazon doing it. It is quite reasonable to have a general level of distaste and suspicion for tha company
Hah, that looks like the gameplay of PS3 / Xbox 360 era Ridge Racer but sent back to Ridge Racer 1993 graphics. Definitely seems like one of those delightful projects where someone just has nostalgia for something and also has the skills and drive to just do it themselves
