Because a well designed game does not include drudgery. "Work-simulators" focus on results and progress and gloss over many of the hours of outright boredom or physical exertion to get there.

For example, truck driving simulator does not include the pain in the ass and boring part of loading or unloading the truck. Farming simulator does not include the painstaking process of removing rocks from the field.

While I grew up on a farm, my first proper career was something called OBC seismic. What it is isn't as important as the fact that it involved placing a 6km long sensor cable on the seabed with a winch and position it properly. To do this right requires practice, and as the principle is farly easy I wrote a small simulator that our trainees could try out. At first they found it interesting, and even the seniors from other departments enjoyed toying with it. The biggest lack of realism was that it didn't involve doing it for 12 hours straight, only stopping to unscrew 25 meter sections and replacing them. Barring drudgery and repetitive boredom could've probably made it an interesting game similar to other work simulators.

At least the 1st one is likely to actually fly in a somewhat stable manner. The rest are likely too heavy, in addition to the last one having a grossly offset CoG.

Hey, it's lossless!

Depends on the currency, though...

I found mine here, I'm sure you'll recognize yours: https://m.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson-phones-19.php

Sony Ericsson W810i. Got it in 2007, I think. When it started to die on me in late 2009 i replaced it with an iPhone 3G, which was my first apple phone. It was also my last apple phone as I hated how locked down everything was.

EDIT: I just remembered I had a secondary dumbphone around 2012 or thereabouts. It was a dual SIM nokia of some sort that I used mainly as a backup phone in case my main ran out of battery while I was on the move.

In 1999 when the entire town was on dialup, I set up this relatively small PC with FreeBSD 3.3 and eggdrop, and hid it in the school library. That way I had an IRC bot that worked while I was offline. After a while I also set it up to automatically grab files from FTP servers for me, but getting these out from the "server" offline was tricky due to 1.44MB floppies being the only removable storage I had available.

Back then internet carried dialup charges per minute for me, so this was a huge time and money saver.

You can test it in the phone and see if it has any juice in it, then. If I were in your shoes I'd feel safe in testing it that way.

Presumably provided that they're with the correct team. I'm sure lgbtq fans and members of the opposing team is hated just as much as the cis/straight equivalent, which I guess is equality.

It's probably fine. The batteries don't care about moisture, as long as the pins don't get shorted or corroded.

If they were wet enough to short, the symptoms are usually a completely dead battery or it seeming puffy, a.k.a. spicy pillow.

You can measure the voltage with a voltmeter if you want to check. It should read around 3.5 to 4V, depending on charge.

No

My "salads" are technically that due to having cucumber in them. But other than that it's mostly just cheese which I don't like with olives.
