Started on the new Indiana Jones game this evening, which alongside the modern Wolfensteins cements Machine Games’ place as the leading “beating up fascists” studio.

Can someone please get on with making widely available electric aircraft please? I’d really like to learn how to fly but I can’t even slightly justify the emissions involved in flying a private plane for fun.
