Shouldn't be any need for spoilers, there, the key point is just the bloody spurs strapped to leg of the (living; note there's a probably dead one on the ground) torchick/orange bird. They're a chicken fighting accessory. KZ's got it, more or less.

That the audience is mostly made up of aqua/magma grunts is a nice touch.

I... don't actually know these days, tbh. Last time I played it was a standalone java program that didn't interact with microsoft's stuff at all... somewhere or another I still got login credentials for it loitering around, I think. Quick check suggests that's at least maybe sorta' still available? Couldn't say if it's still DRM free(-ish, outside the login), though.

No clue whatsoever what's going on with the Win-10 specific version. There's also the question of which one the kid's interested in, because if there's a difference they'd be keyed into, well. Maybe see if the sprog can clarify?

It'd take some major changes to current infrastructure practices, sadly. Lot of the reason it's not normalized is that lots of places put stuff down there these days, and folks randomly digging around can cause... problems. Self-electrocution, busted pipes, broken phone lines, etc.

There's been a smattering of stuff like that (mostly of a "be careful what you wish for" nature, looking at it), plus JA3 development was announced just last year by these folks, who among other things did Tropico 3-5. So hey, there's options and fairly likely to be more coming.

They seem to be more after the bee hotels, actually. Is that better or worse than drilllust?

Today's food thing is chili pepper swiss cheese gravy(?*), over fried curried potatoes with shredded turkey. In process of cooking, gravy is done and vaguely amazing, potatoes are frying, about to shred the turkey.

*I think, anyway. I made rous with unsalted butter and flour and water, put a good bit of black pepper and chili powder on it, stirred well and warmed a bit, stuck in a couple of slices of swiss cheese and warmed it enough to all melt together with more stirring. I'm fairly sure that's gravy? Or something close to it. Tasty, anyway...

e: finally recognized that taste, this gravy-thing nearly matches those frikkin' pringle pizza chips, just less salty

how

e2: anyway it's pretty damn good i will probably cook this again at some point

e3: oh, that's why this sounded familiar, I think I just accidentally'd some kind of pseudo-poutine

e4: Next day, I think I've learned one of the secrets of really good homemade mashed potatoes. Add egg (and cheese!) when it's mash time, let it cook a little longer (like 2-4 minutes on low) to make sure the egg's cooked. Consistency is the best I've produced by hand to date.

... then I added turkey bacon and parsley and chili powder and black pepper and now I'm eating it and it's pretty solid. Can tell there's no salt (outside the bacon and a bit in the cheese), though...

e5: i have made personalized food crack

airfried diced potatoes (seasoned with pepper and paprika and parsley, a 4 p potato) mixed with that sorta' braised chicken mentioned up thread however far and the cheese gravy above without the chili powder.

i don't think I've ever eaten anything more appreciated by my taste buds ;_;

If you think folks don't use corded drills to screw things in or the battery powered ones to put holes in stuff, I have some unfortunate news for you

Least around where I'm at, people generally don't make a distinction between electric screwdriver and power drill -- if it'll hold a drill bit, it's a drill, it's just a question of how strong it is and if it needs chargin', heh.

e: and if you're asking if that designation applies to people and small animals, yes, if they can turn it enough and not run faster than you
