What part of Canada? I see old pickups and SUVs all the time.

#4 is huge. I had an '89 Ford Probe. It had 330000km on it when the bottom rusted out and wasn’t worth repairing. Mechanically that thing was still perfectly sound, and probably could have put another 100k on it.

McNally Robinson is also a huge bookstore in Saskatoon.

Right, forgot about the moons. I managed to confuse new and original doom in my mind. IIRC the humans didn’t even invent the teleporters. They were already there.

The highest speed limit in the USA is 137kph or 85mph. 148 is not a lot higher, and people tend to be stupid.

Yup, I was friends with his older brother. Both of them were/are a bit weird, didn’t think much of either of them academically until grade 12. Then their math & and computer genious came out. Had a few university classes with them, the older brother has better social skills, but Lee is more creative IMHO.

Upshot is I played Capsized in 2009, so that was neat.

I’ve been meaning to try the original Crysis now that I have a computer that can play it. I started it, but then life happened.

DOOM Eternal didn’t do it for me. It’s Doom-ish, but not enough. It’d be a better game if it wasn’t set in the Doom universe trying to add a bunch of non-Doom elements to the game. Doom (2016) did that too, but not to the same extent. I like the older Dooms mostly for their simplicity: get gun, see bad guy, shoot gun. Pick up health. Repeat. Doom Eternal did that, but added a story, weapon mods, and skills. Fine mechanics, but not Doom enough for me.

My last two offices had showers. No communal room, but the thing I remember most about the last one is the hot water being pumped from the furnaces of hell itself. It took so long go get there, and was so hot once it did I can’t think of any other explanation.
