#roadgeek | Interesting but the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe copy the structure and design roadmarkers of Portugal. Wondering if another Lusophone country does too, Brazil doesn't
Trauma Center is one of my favorite video game series, I really like this review. I hope you'll play UTK2, which improves on the previous game in many graphical and technical aspects. :D
first paragraph of the text review given in the link below "Atlus adapts the grisly world of surgery as a timer juggling exercise, with the player managing a main time limit, the drain on their patient's vitals, and the interval until a new hazard spawns. Kyriaki, one of the game's fabricated "GUILT" viruses, best exemplifies this. It appears by creating an incision in the patient's tissue, which bleeds and thus increases the patient's vital drain, and it travels under the tissue surface making more incisions until extracted. Locating one permanently requires detecting it with an ultrasound and then cutting it out of the tissue with the scalpel, after which it will make yet another incision, leaving two net additional cuts to deal with. To kill it, you target it with a laser for a period, with the caveat that leaving the laser in one place for too long will burn through the tissue and cause a hemorrhage. When multiple of these appear at once, you're put in the uncomfortable circumstance of switching your attention between actively adversarial viruses and the injuries both you and they incur. This aligns with the game's spatial aspect: your tools utilize stylus strokes, so the player can optionally bide their time fixing injuries while waiting for multiple Kyriaki to line up for extraction in a single strike. Attempting this without consideration of the patient's vitals often results in a quick death, however, especially in scenarios where killing one on its own leads to two more spawning and overwhelming the organ with incisions. While this sounds like a traditional combat game, the implementation is a stranger blend: small skill-based actions, almost reminiscent of the exaggerated tasks of the *Cooking Mama* games, required dynamically based on the behavior of the virus."
while atlus is at the height of their popularity, they've left a good number of their best series behind. this includes the twitchy, brutally difficult trauma center games, which gave the rpg a chance to flex their arcade-style chops. we need a switch sequel... link below!

Holy shit, I was able to get all the transitions and idents from UBC TV (Uganda State Television) from 2011
I've finally managed to get my hands on the Rwanda TV News intro from the early 2010s. Right now, I have the Litaba (Lesotho) intros from 2009, 2014, and 2020, as well as the MBC News (Malawi) intros from 2012 to 2018.

The Old Tram in Arequipa, Peru (Around 1965), same location today
"Was suspended on November 1, 1941, when asphalt began to cover the city’s streets to make way for automobiles. In 1965, the beautiful, nearly century-old Cúcuta Station was demolished to make way for the construction of the Bus Station"

Interesting, it was imported from Germany and there's some people that say the Cúcuta tram was demolished between 1948 and 1950

In the 2024 Amtrak Long Distance study, the FRA proposed a new LD Amtrak route connecting Houston to Denver:
#trams | "Over time, overhead wires were removed by both authorities and the public and what remained of the routes was taken away bit by bit following the 2011 revolution. In 2019, the last of Cairo's trams ran for the final time and most of the rails had been removed." :(

#roadgeek #roadsigns | In 1980, Ciudad del Saber in Panama City had bilingual signs, making it the only place in Central America to have such signs. Following the handover of the Canal, Panama has been responsible for replacing all of those signs.
