I agree. This website has been very useful and encouraging on my language learning journey.

Technically, no, as in the UK, you can't steal electricity... you can only abstract electricity, which is an offence in its own right. (IANAL)

I'll get my coat.

I was so annoyed to get that email. Never using them again. Going to install a non-smart wireless thermostat, or maybe a HA install if I'm feeling brave.

You're right of course :) I guess I spend so much time IRL with traffic, seeing the virtual equivalent doesn't spark joy.

I'd love a car-free option. Mass transit, bicycles and foot travel only would be a great challenge.

I've spent many happy hours playing the original... My only gripe is that it always turned into a traffic management sim. Yes there were other challenges, but traffic was always front and centre. (At least for my cities)
