Here’s a random fun fact that just resurfaced in my brain:
The reason firehouses have poles was originally because horses can climb up stairs but can’t climb down again.
The horses that would pull the fire wagon would be stabled on the ground floor, and the hay loft would be upstairs. Horses would find their way up the stairs and were not only an impediment to fast deployment but just a whole bunch of trouble to get down again.
I love SimCity 2000, I love Cities: Skylines, but come onnnnnn it's been over 30 years since the genre started
I dream of a city building sim that actually lets me solve traffic! Let me build walkable neighborhoods! Let me build bike lanes and ban SUVs! Let me build massive underground bike parking garages! How are have city builder games still not recovered from SimCity abstracting people as cars and removing parking lots because they made the game less fun
there's something about doing non-gaming stuff on a Wii that modern TV-connected devices can't replicate
TIL you used to be able to order takeout from your Wii and someone made that channel work again in 2022 https://youtu.be/TJU2b5oh7bI
I did something fun this week: I made a typewriter simulator!
It ended up being more complex than it seemed. You can overtype, rotate paper, set margins, use Wite-Out, change ribbons… Let me know what you make!
