Also, no one like to sit with their back to the walkway corridor, with other guests and staff constantly squeezing past and behind your seat.
Oh, nice tip! Any good way of emulating that on a mobile Android keyboard? Or do you just copy and paste a lot? Perhaps this could be done with a custom autocorrect dictionary injury?

There was a fairly big 40K lore channel on YouTube with a rather good AI impersonation of David Attenborough’s voice and narration style/scripting. However, I just went to check it, yet it must have recently gotten hit with a DMCA and taken down. A shame really. Though I never got into 40K lore before, or the 40K franchise in general, I am a big fan of David Attenborough, and so that ended up really drawing me in to a new literary universe. However, it was a big mistake by the YouTube creator to use the name and photo likeness of Attenborough in the branding, video titles, and thumbnail art on the channel. I think without pushing that line, the AI voice with a clear disclosure could have kept the channel under the legal radar.

From the pinned comments made here, this looks to be the same creators new channel, now using a different voice, no longer based on any one real person:
The four eyed fish trivolously gives it away, cuz that ain’t no flounder. Also, what cat in its right mind would be stealing a scavenged kill without it tightly secured in its jaws while on the run, let alone clinging a fish to its chest like an anthropomorphic cartoon?
The wide angle composition is kind of cool though, but I prefer photos of real cats.
On a meta note, I just fell for your community link.
Yep, it was a lot of fun doing out maneuver and dropping spike strips at just the most opportune and inescapable moment. NFS3 also has split screen where players could even play on different sides locally during the dance race, or complete as both cops to catch the most races.
I really appreciate this patch to run NFS3 on modern Windows or Wine:
Need For Speed III Modern Patch v1.6.1 [2016/10/28] (HD + Widescreen + Portable)
The author has sence redacted the torrent link for the original game files bundled with a previous patch, but anyone can just as easily go back through intent archive to find it:
I’d like to see the earlier Hot Pursuit and High Stake releases remastered. I loved those long scenic and rural tracks. I played a lot of NFS3, and then a lot of the 2010 reboot because the graphics where better, but I still miss that retro '90s hypercar aesthetic and soundtrack.
The 2010 NFS HP reboot helped supplement my nostalgia, but sometimes I’d just want to go back to that grippy arcade style of driving dynamics, but with modern graphical realism. E.g like this vision of NFS3 ported to use the Unreal 5 Engine:
Can you listen to music or watch a movie while on a discord call using the hands-free microphone in your Bluetooth headset? Full duplex audio still halves the nominal bitrate for both the microphone and media playback audio; same as when the HSP/HFP protocols we’re first showcased in 1999. It’s ridiculous, especially now that very few flagship devices still include a headset jack.
