It's a tad out of date, but the Second Doctor claims he received a medical degree after studying under Joseph Lister in 1888.

I think it's unfortunately a given at this point.

And they'll take credit for "stopping" it once they no longer need to hype it up of course.

Well there was Joseph Staten, worked on CE/2/3/ODST, went with Bungie when they became independent, then rejoined MS and ended up being "Head of Creative" on Halo Infinite.

What you see in stuff like Google Maps or OpenStreetMap isn't plain Mercator, it's a variant called "Web Mercator"

And the US DoD doesn't like it because it introduces even more deviations than plain Mercator.

I quite liked the locale in FC5, but the (nearly?) unavoidable captures the game would force on you when you did too much open world stuff annoyed the hell out of me.

Then I had the ending spoiled for me and I just got too annoyed at the story planners and never touched it again.

His personal LLC is called "Excession", considering some of the plot points in that book I doubt he enjoyed it at all, it's just "nerd set dressing".

At the time it was just an ad-lib by Jason Issacs, guessing he wished on a monkey's paw for it to make sense in context.

Yep, our center-left government recently announced plans to keep using natural gas for at least another 25 years

But it's ok, because we'll work out carbon capture in the future! Which is the exact same notion that our previous right wing government based their policy on.
