I think posters/flyers are one of the most powerful ways to reach people in a local area, you've got to be in the local area to see them, right?

Another way to spread the word can be via the internet, Facebook is god awful, but a lot of communities will have something akin to a noticeboard that is another effective way to get the word out.

I would love a new Rayman game in the format of Rayman 3! Don't get me wrong, the 2d games were great, but it just doesn't scratch the same itch

Currently the Settings app in windows doesn't have the same level of features as the control panel does. It's definitely got most features that normal users will need, but if you're a power user or a system admin, you'll quickly find yourself having to swap over to control panel to configure anything past the very basics for quite a few different parts of windows. This change will be fine if Microsoft achieve feature parity between settings and control panel, so that there's no lost functionality when they get rid of control panel.

I think most people are a bit upset at the idea of the control panel disappearing because they don't trust that Microsoft will end up reaching that feature parity, leaving people with less options to control their own devices effectively.

Most of mine are videogame or car related, but here's a few from across the spectrum of things I watch:

Aliensrock: Interesting streamer/YouTuber who primarily plays puzzle games and provides entertaining commentary.

ScrapMan: Plays lots of building/engineering games (mostly Scrap Mechanic and Trailmakers). Lots of silly multiplayer competitions and "engineering challenges".

ItsJabo: Funny guy Streamer that plays Bethesda games with silly challenge runs. Also brings a bit of the chaotic energy.

Joov: same as above, but a bit more focused on telling a story throughout the challenge runs.

Aging Wheels: Eccentric guy that makes videos about eccentric cars. He's quite funny and passionate which makes for good videos.

Superfast Matt: Engineer who makes ridiculous project cars that are good enough ™️. He's made a land speed car, and recently an Off-road Dodge Viper.

Allen Pan: Inventor that makes a bunch of fun and silly projects sometimes based on stuff from TV shows and movies.

Incognito Mode: Especially the "In the Field" series. Basically an animated podcast where the Internet Historian and a guest talk about a variety of topics and come up with ridiculous scenarios.

Tasting History: Max Miller makes cool recipes from history whilst also giving a history lesson on the meal and its significance.

The reflections are absolutely beautiful in this painting, and it has such a tranquil air about it. Great artwork, thanks for sharing it here

Not that it makes the situation that much better, but that's $895 Billion, not Trillion

It's wild that's legal there! Where I live learners and provisional riders are restricted by power to weight ratio (150kw per tonne/200hp per 2000lbs), and that honestly seems like it keeps them on reasonable bikes for the skill level without having them all stuck on 125cc bikes struggling to reach the speed limit

I think they're lamps made out of beer bottles (just with no lightbulbs installed yet, they'd sit in the top).

For anyone who's interested, there was a movie made that was loosely based on this story called Oddball: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt3401748/

Not sure how to help you out with it, but you're at least not alone. Robert Smith from The Cure had the same problem with the song "Friday I'm in Love": https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_I%27m_in_Love

"During the writing process, Robert Smith became convinced that he had inadvertently stolen the chord progression from somewhere, and this led him to a state of paranoia where he called everyone he could think of and played the song for them, asking if they had heard it before. None of them had, and Smith realised that the melody was indeed his."

I'm always partial to "PONYO LOVES HAM!!!"

Backpack Hero gets close to that in a rougelike/lite kind of way
