It’s a pure tournament helmet for jousting, the peculiar design is to direct splinters away from the tiny opening that juuuuust let’s you see your opponent.

Imho. Project Zomboid is THE ultimate zombie-game. The atmosphere is perfect.
You’re being introduced to the game with “There was no hope of survival. This is how you died.” Because you likely ARE going to die.
You become overconfident and then get bit by a group of four undead who suddenly come at you from behind in a bathroom. Or you get trapped in a skyscraper by a horde that came running when the house-alarm went off. Or you die because the piece of shit car you are driving just won’t start anymore stranding you, exhausted and wounded, in front of the ever advancing horde. Or you fall from a roof. Or you cut yourself when jumping through a window. Or you just looted a watch and it had an alarm set that goes off right when you try to sneak by some zombies.
A single Zombie is seldom a threat (though it still can be) but their numbers are just too damn high and they never stop following you, while you become hungry, tired and exhausted. Then the water stops working and the power goes out and suddenly you have to survive by scavanging until you are able to set up a safe base where you can collect rainwater and start agriculture… or maybe you become a nomad, always one step ahead of the Zeds and scrounging for the little food left from before the apocalypse that hasn’t rotted away yet…
It is the perfect “The Walking Dead”-experience in single- as well as multiplayer.
Project Zomboid is one of my favorite games and it is the zombie-survival-game that all the other games in that genre are measured against.

Damn, nearly did not recognize Keating, his performance in that gif gives heavy David Tennant to me.

I honestly enjoyed him more in Dredd (where he had to do more with less) than in Star Trek.

Finamp on my phone, it’s working perfectly with my online Jellyfin server that I use on PC.
- Comment on New Japanese Law Stops Parents From Naming Their Baby 'Pikachu' 1 year ago:
Sometimes I am quite happy about strict german naming laws.
The first name …
- must be recognizable as a first name
- must not be a widespread place name or brand name.
- must not be a family name. Exceptions have been made in particular for East Frisian middle names (for example “ten Doornkaat”) and for very rare, unusual surnames (for example Wannek, Birkenfeld), as well as of course for surnames that are mainly known as first names (such as Gerhart).
- may not denote a title such as Lord or Princess.
- does not have to be clearly masculine or feminine, as was the case until 2008, but may also be neutral.
- must not harm the child’s welfare by ridiculing the child or creating a connection “to evil”
Pikachu absolutely falls under ridicule and maybe even brand name
