So it's not just me. I thought they made it better eventually, seems I was too optimistic.

Impressions from watching someone play it: it looks like a clone of Stardew Valley. The music isn't terrible but I wouldn't say it's good. Some mechanics from Stardew Valley that weren't easy enough were changed, like fishing. I'm not sure that's bad for everyone, it can just be a casual game to relax.

Current consoles use x86_64 and Vulkan/DirectX don't they?

The Switch is ARM so not terribly exotic.

Not necessarily a bad thing if they can make the prices lower, if most people end up buying cheaper but adequate hardware developers will have an incentive to make their games work with that hardware. We have seen what games with NVidia partnerships ended up with in terms of bugs with ATI GPUs but aren't those problems less severe now?

The class with a mannequin is really important to experience firsthand. Like to see that you should really start calling the emergency services and put them on speaker after you’ve assessed the situation and before you start CPR. And to know how hard you have to do it. It doesn’t take incredible skill, the modern mannequins will rate your performance, as long as you go fast enough and don’t stop it’s good. I was in shape at the time and I found it easy enough if you use your weight to help, I don’t think I could keep going hard for more than five minutes though.

OP has no ambition, you can buy rolling stock for scrap value quite easily. If you have an insane amount of labour at your disposal you can do most things for a small heritage railroad by hand. The know-how is not secret arcane knowledge. The main issue is that most countries don't have that many enthusiasts willing to fund those projects. Road subsidies are insanely high but hurr-durr trains are expensive.

Lossy to lossless is fine it's just a waste of space.

Except most libertarians would not give them a steady income stream: legalise drugs, prostitution and gambling and organised crime does not have much left.

Or rest their head near the side curtain airbags. Loads of cars have them now.

If this holds up in court and becomes precedent it will create a lot of people with nothing left to lose with a lot of grudges against these companies. I can't say I would have any sympathy if executives became targets for heinous acts of violence stemming from such an injustice.

It isn't a security feature, more like a backdoor checkbox.

I wouldn't even for a million Euros, the French federation thinks the four rules are too good for them and they also write self-contradicting bullshit. I'm willing to bet they're not the worst.
