It would be irrelivant. Trump will change anything and everything to suit his needs. You can change whatever you want and he'll just change it back on day one. You know, that one day he made very clear that he was going to be a dictator. That's the one day set aside to change every single thing he needs to. After that, nothing else matters.

I've always found this subject fascinating. Why are we all so different in this regards? What's going or not going on up there? Anyway, this is my result…

Tap for spoilerI imagined a bright red ball, like a shiny red plasticy looking ball

The "person" pushing the ball was just a disembodied arm, the ball rolled and bounced around the pool table much as a pool ball would

The arm was pretty much my arm. I didn't bother to visualise the person, instead concentrating on the interaction with the ball.

The ball was larger than a pool ball, maybe softball sized or even slightly bigger

The table was basically a pool table, green felt, but smaller or maybe the ball was just much bigger

All this I knew from my visualisation but when answering the questions I probably solidified my thoughts a bit. When viewing things they are constantly changing or shifting to match new information/ideas/concepts of what's there. I don't really see the whole scene at once easily, instead focusing in on different aspects of it. For example if I'm concentrating on the red, shiny ball then the table is just a green plane/background.

Wow, that's a bummer :-/ For me it's 15-20 min by car assuming a few minutes walk to where I've parked. 25 min by bike (20 min by road but I take a safer 'scenic route') and about 40 min by bus and about 10 minutes of that is walking to/from the bus stop. And the bus fare gets capped at 8 trips per week so every trip thereafter is free meaning if you commute to work every day, Friday and all weekend will be unlimited free trips.

One of my carless kin! There are dozens of us!! The number of times people have assumed I can't go somewhere "because it's raining" and I'm just like, I have a jacket and an umbrella! But what if you're biking?? Um, I have a jacket, a backpack cover and leggings and sometimes... if I'm just heading home to a hot shower and a change of clothes, I just get soaking wet! Like absolutely sodden! NBD! And if I'm heading somewhere without the option of a change of clothes, I bus there and that leads to a whole other issue of "But that must take ssooo long!?!" Yeah sure, a bit longer, but I can relax, pop on some headphones, set google maps to tell me when I'm near my stop, watch/listen to something and let the driver worry about the driving!

So because you will be able to generate game assests easily without weeks of modelling and texturing etc games will be waaaay cheaper to buy right?… Right?…

Most concerts I've been to that have required travel outside of my home city have been 1000km away and I always fly. This has probably been about 10 times all up, 4 of which were festivals with multiple bands I wanted to see. I have yet to travel to another country for a concert but for a very few specific bands that's not out of the question. There's probably only a couple of bands that haven't toured here yet that would actually be that tempting.

Not just you. I have never in all my decades cycling this earth, heard the terms cager or cage to mean car driver or car?! The headline made feck all sense to me on first read.

Crikey!? That sux :-/ I don't recall ever encountering a road in any town or city where I've lived that didn't have at least one footpath per road, and usually there's one down each side of every single street until you get past the last house before hitting the countryside.

Find your local makerspace! You will be super useful to people and able to help them out with your woodworking and computer skills, you will learn new skills adjacent to those hobbies from others and you can bake some treats to take along that will win you instant fans! Also, makerspaces attract people of a wide range of ages and backgrounds that will share many of your interests! It's a win-win-win!

It was a blend of a bit of quirky humor followed by a more profound message that Kamala Harris attributes to her mother: "You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you."

I assume you mean D.J.T is grasping at straws? Which he absolutely is! "Laughing Kamala" isn't the solid burn he thinks it is LOL Suing to force Biden to stay in the race? Haha LOL good one! Oh, they're serious? I don't think forcing someone to stay in a race against their will is a viable legal option?? And I bet Trump is regretting his VP choice now! His whole platform seems to be "Chicks right, they should shut up and get back in the kitchen! Fricken crazy cat women running the place! NO they can't choose what to do with their own body! Get pregnant or you're worthless! Shouldn't be able to vote if you don't churn out babies!" Awesome VP to run in a race against a woman LOL Loved his speech about how he drank a diet mountain dew yesterday and today… Riveting stuff! LOL Is it telling that I can remember the soda he referenced but I can't remember his name? I'm sure it'll come to me…
