We used to have one at home. It's like a clam shell -- the roll sits in the bottom half, the hinged top half closes on top, and the paper is threaded through a wide gap.

It was popular in former Soviet territories. My guess is that many households only had poorly-built outhouses and no reliable supply of toilet paper, and this design protected the roll from water damage.

It's all information that is given to the player during the prologue, or otherwise vague enough where one can't reasonably guess the events.

Not unless you point and call it a spoiler.

There's a portion of the map where you and the gang are wanted dead or alive because of the ferry heist. Entering it for most of the game will get you a maximum wanted level, headhunters will show up, and eventually the game kills you. That restriction is lifted in the final act.

The world opens up once you get out of the snow and settle down in the Horseshoe Overlook camp. You'll still have linear story missions to do, but you can start those whenever you feel like, and explore as much as you want.

Not so much when they did that to airplanes.

You can use an offline account with Prism Launcher (I recommend flatpak), but only if you've logged in with a Mojang or Microsoft account at least once, or found some other way to bypass that requirement. It has integrated mod support and you can have completely separate game instances.

Good news: no Bell riots.

Bad news: we are officially living in the Bad Timeline.

Clone it before the Glowy Boys declare it a weapon of mass destruction and preemptively nuke the repo.

Not as much as you might think. Space launch rockets don't carry a lot of extra fuel beyond what's absolutely needed. Even propulsively landed rockets are almost empty.

If you want to be outraged, look at how much carbon dioxide is produced during ascent.

Remember how conservatives think that Rage Against The Machine is on their side. There's no delusion too great after that.
