    I guess they left out 3 uncountable books, the Bible, the Koran, the Complete Works of Shakespeare, because who could guess the number? (A quick 3 minute video). I bet Beatrix Potter had no idea her book might sell millions!

  7. I know there are plenty of career addons that will do this in spades. But I'm burning out on them and want to "fly on my own" however I know I'm gong to miss keeping track of the finances. keeping track of income - I find to be much easier but expenses is where the problem lies... Is there anyway of keeping track of finances that would be very easy? I was thinking maybe a percentage of income? or using time... any help would be appreciated.

    One of the best space sims out there, and even more awesome in VR. It's been a long time!

    Seeing what they have done to so many staple a/c of the simming era, I would love it if they continue to bring to life more planes of the past like they did with the Duke. What comes to mind would be: The PMDG Jetstream4100 and the Aerosoft Catalina. I dont think PMDG will ever get around to remaking this bird and while the Cat was slow, I loved having to really nurse the engines while flying in the cold and wet Alaska panhandle.

  16. We had a power outage in our part of town the other day. It lasted about 4 hours and we got a smattering taste of life without power. I turned on my laptop but the WiFi was out of course. No ability to charge iPhones. I mentioned to my co-residents that a week or more without power would be a catastrophe. The food in our freezers would thaw and spoil. Our iPhone batteries would lose their power and no chance of recharging them. Taking out a nation's power grid would lead to chaos and riots. Electric cars would be useless. But so would ICE cars when they had no place to go to pump gasoline. We would need open fires to cook with. Those of us who…

    A mere 6 years. Yikes! "In the world of artificial intelligence, the idea of “singularity” looms large. This slippery concept describes the moment AI exceeds beyond human control and rapidly" transforms society. https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/robots/a63057078/when-the-singularity-will-happen/

  21. You know the reports of aliens among us are true when the so called aliens try to sell us stuff. The only reasons for aliens to pay attention to Earth is to make a buck selling advanced tech gagets to us primative Earthlings. It will be a trading vessel, like Hans Solo and Chewbaca offering what to them are cheap trinkets but they can sell for a fortune to random gullable Earthlings passing by. And then fly away chuckling over their easy money. When people can produce examples of truly amazing to us whiz bang alien tech, then we can believe their tales of aliens among us. Until then, not so much.

    No, or at least very little, DEI makeover, no bringing the story up to date to make it relevant and resonate with a modern audience. PETA is upset at the negative portrayal of rats and bats. " Director Robert Eggers’ new Nosferatu is a long-awaited adaptation of a much-told tale that typifies much of his trademark filmmaking. " -gamesradar I predict a huge success.

  24. Such nostalgia! And I've thought previously more than once about what it might be like, bringing back the old cast/crew via modern technology. Perhaps this is how it would look. watch-william-shatners-captain-kirk-returns-in-unification-short-film-from-roddenberry-archive
