Well before 1859, even! It's been around for millennia. Charles II was big into horse racing in the 1600s, and the Greeks did chariot racing.

Wish we had better standards for animal treatment.

I burnt myself out on apple flavoured drinks in my early 20s drinking a ridiculous amount of cider for eurovision 😂 I'll have it on rare occasions, but I've never been a huge fan of AJ. I prefer orange juice or blackcurrant hahaha

I mean, the usual distinction is cloudy or not. I think cloudy is your AJ and clear is your cider? Mulled apple juice is something you'd typically get or make very separately. I don't see it often in Aus because it's not really cold enough here, so they'll do mulled wine if they do mulled anything.

Yeah! That's just mulled apple juice, it's been part of european history as a different version of mulled wine/glühwein for something like 700+ years!

Right but apple juice (UK/Aus/etc) IS both things. Apple juice can be your US cider or your US apple juice! I've always understood that the US makes a distinction between types of AJ for some reason. x)

That's only in the US, though. Everywhere else, it's apple juice, sometimes with other distinctions like cloudy. Hard cider isn't a thing in the UK/Aus/etc - it's just cider!

this is one of those NA vs rest of the world things that HIGHLY confused me for a long while

ordered cider at a pancake place that's run by americans here and was so confused when it was just apple juice

To be honest, it really shouldn't be anything to do with my physical location - genuinely worrying if that's the case! I have to assume it's related to the lag that happens when you open the console. There just seems to be a lot of memory used on new WA, and the auto save probably ain't helping that

She'll totally be loved by everyone in-game too, right?

If it were just load times on loading the screens, it'd be fine, but it's also on loading anything on the screen or switching between categories or opening notebooks or even typing, and that's just not on!

Typing in a textbox in the new editor lags for me. I've got a writing speed of 110WPM and I tried to type a single sentence - and it felt like I was at least a second behind. Opening/closing windows with animations also stutters sometimes, leading to that sickness issue I experienced before.

I have VERY good internet (500 up, 500 down) and two very good PCs in my room. It's not my tech that's the issue. I don't know if it's just Firefox or living in Australia or what, but like, opening notebooks? Seconds of wait time. Opening categories in those notebooks? Seconds of wait time.
