Ooops

when you're deleting a couple of large windmills on your giant windmill park to make room for the nuclear plant. make sure to be in the windmill park editing mode and don't answer yes when your whole park is lit up yellow.... takes a while for the nuclear to gear up :p

my mines and smelter don't make any money without power :p so much easier when you have neighbours to buy utilities from :)

Happened to me couple of times as well, trying to delete some extensions and ending up demolishing an entire freight terminal and windfarm plant.

Any of you installed the VU-Tower from the Heroes and Villains set? Is it worth it from tourism etc point of view, or will crime skyrocket in the city?

Been playing straight for 4 hours now, don't know what happened there but the game really sucks you in...

Welcome to the Club!

Cheers!

haha

I'm now trying to cure my Starcraft II addiction with this game. It seems to be working coz I haven't logged on to battle.net since the release. However, I don't know how much longer I can hold on to it with HOTS being released in literally several hours!

Any idea what the free games will be?

If the choices are good, I'll buy SimCity (which is overpriced) since I'd be getting two games for the price of one.

Should have bought the game from the Indian store, before it was pulled off of it (due too many non-Indians buying the game from there). Would have saved 30 bucks and get a free game, too. Not that I'm saying the game (simcity 5) is bad, but 60 is a bit too much for it in current state. And no, no one knows which games are going to be given to the simcity owners yet. Hopefully, it will be something good.

At some point you have to start burning it.

I was burning and thought I just didn't have enough trucks so I deleted that one and created 3 new dumps all maxed out with garbage trucks but they all come back to the garage at 2:30 each day. Still red on pickup and can't figure it out. They haven't said anything about the dumps being at capacity.

My city was at 250,000 but has dropped to 230,000 now.

I think there might still be bugs with regional buildings (my trade markets occasionally just stopped and I wasn't entirely sure why) but in the meantime if you see a queue entering and leaving your city it might be good to stop volunteering as much to other cities (especially if you've only got one road coming in.)

I haven't used it yet. Maxisman I have put down in most of my cities because he helps with crime, hospitals and fires. I am worried about the VU tower crime. I might try him in my oil, and mining town. LEss population due to crime would mean less traffic and faster sell times for my delivery trucks.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels A few months ago, Neowin reported that the UK was trialing a social media ban with 300 teenagers for six weeks, that testing has come to an end, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced that the country will ban under-16s from social media. Starmer said that this technology is making children unhappy and making it easier for bullies to harass and abuse them. He continued to talk about the addictive nature of social media, saying that it uses an infinite scroll designed to lock users in for hours. He said this interferes with children doing their homework, reading, playing with friends outside, and going to bed on time. Tackling the idea that nothing can be done about social media, Starmer said: The government’s action won’t stop at social media either, the PM said. It plans to take action on gaming services and livestreaming platforms. Right now, he said, strangers can contact any child unchecked. He said this wouldn’t happen in real life, and the government is going to stop it from happening online, too. The Labour government has overseen the introduction of the Online Safety Act, a big change to the internet which includes age verification on adult websites. This has led to a fair bit of backlash, but overall, the government is pushing ahead with these changes.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.
