This is the number of houses built in Spain, we got about 11.000 last year. The population increase in 2024? 508.602 people.

It's not that the solutions are difficult or slow, is that politicians don't want to solve the problem at all.

The success of Spain? Don't be mislead, there has been practically no growth in real, per capita terms. PIB per capita in 2018 was 28k$. PIB per capita now is 29k$.

In the last 30 years, real salaries in Spain have increased a mere 2,76%. In the same time the UK's have risen 40%.

This would be like the least surprising thing about Chainsaw Man.

Once again, I must commend you for your excellent taste, though.

Of course I know that person, it’s me.

No, but I would love to see its platforming and pinball-inspired physics expressed through boardgames mechanics.

Happy birthday!

I think companies have just decided not to offer any customer service. It's not that they have replaced them with AI chatbots, is that they don't want to offer customer service anymore.

T scale seems a ton of fun but it’s very heavily limited in both operation and availability.

What kind of modelling do you want to do? I think that’s going to be key.

England is such a simple but interesting map. The “hole“ in the middle and London being the only yellow city create a ton of track configurations.

Haha, I love that you laughed so hard you coughed. A shame I couldn't watch it, I fell in bed like a rock this time!

I think it dragged because they withheld too often, the NWR had 300$ runs but it was keeping them, for example.

As you can see, my custom expansion is on the right. It didn't do much this game, but it helped me figure out that I only need one extra 3M/5 train at best.

Personally, I see it as another sign that they are meant to be seen more than played.

These editions assume that you will either invite people over (Kallax-sized) or you will own and drive a car.

You cannot walk with them comfortably or carry them in a normal bike bag. They don't even fit most bags.

I hate balance issues

It may seem odd to add an expansion with newbies. The reason is that running several companies is key for them so I'm adding my expansion to have 9 companies rather than just 8.

I loved how colorful it was. The anime was drab, I'm glad they realized that a film where our titular Chainsaw Man rides a shark to battle against his love interest needed to be extremely colorful.

It's a bit messy at parts and the couple fanservice shots are dumb, but they are minor flaws.

They also gave us Chainsaw Hats at the threater. 10/10, would wear silly hat again.

Really? You are chill and approcheable, I wouldn't put you above average at all. Perhaps a 3?

Your gaming skills are scary, though, I always think "Damn, I would struggle like hell with this and she makes it look so easy"
