    Nope, we Brits use feet and inches for height. Miles for long distances, meters for medium distances, inches for small distances and millimetres for very small. If you’re old then you probably use feet for medium distances. Pints for alcohol, litres for everything else. Stone for the weight of people, kg for everything else unless you’re over 60 or cooking, in which case it’s pounds and ounces. Speed is in miles per hour unless you’re in physics class, then it’s meters per second

    I thought I’d remembered different names for it! I never made that connection though. I did try playing on Legendary this time around but it was too difficult. Halo 2 seems much harder than Reach, which was the last one I completed on Legendary. Maybe I’m just out of practice…

    It’s ok, I don’t play Zelda. It’s more like I think Pokémon Blue was 10 years ago old but actually it was probably gen 4 (is that called Platinum?)

    … I wish I hadn’t looked at Wikipedia now. Platinum was the third installment in gen 4 and that was 16 years ago. Apparently we’re up to gen 9 somehow

    If there’s enough profit to turn the CEO into a billionaire, there’s also enough profit to pay the workers more. Certainly, as you’ve said, things could be worse and there’s plenty of bad examples, these workers were still being underpaid relative to the value they produced
