A very good example of unimaginative or unoriginal naming. Although Alexandria is presumably named after Alexander the Great, rather than because the place reminded them of Alexandria.

As a Brit I was watching the storm coverage in the USA yesterday and marveling at the number of locations named after European towns, and chuckling at the lack of imagination of the early immigrants.

Composed of 18 images, this natural-color mosaic shows a boulder field on “Mount Washburn” (named after a mountain in Wyoming) in Mars’ Jezero Crater. The Perseverance science team nicknamed the light-toned boulder with dark speckles near the center of the mosaic. “Atoko Point” (after a feature in the eastern Grand Canyon). The images were acquired by NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover on May 27, 2024, the 1,162nd Martian day, or sol, of the mission

But it turns out nothings really changed on the naming front… however I’ve never had to name a place so I can’t really claim I’d be any better!

I normally complain about American English and the atrocious things they do to the language, so I’m on the side of the high German here.

I think in the UK it’d be the “own brand” - very much conveys the same idea of the brand belonging to the store https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/own-brand

I’m not sure they can really vote Putin out of power.

And as for moving country, well I’m sure that’s easy for some, but those with family and commitments I can’t imagine it’s easy

I’d imagine he’s could be worried about bumping into people in prison that he’s had a hand in putting there!

I can’t imagine judges are popular in prison, and corrupt judges are likely to be extra reviled.

I must admit I thought pagers used the gsm (cellular) network, but could only receive messages and therefore couldn’t be triangulated / located like a mobile phone.

Reading deeper, if it’s radio signals then I can’t imagine Israel would have any problems replicating or spoofing them.

The north folk and the south folk.

Yes, so if someone sent a very unique message, I’m not sure how many characters fit on a pager, but something nobody would ever send, then it could be the activation “password”.

I never had or used a pager, but I think it’s possible to send short alphanumeric messages to them via the cell phone network (GSM, or whatever)

It’s a device designed to receive signals ;p

I think for the pagers the consensus is that a particular code would have been sent to the devices.

I’ll have to see if there’s a picture including the garderobe

That’s the cross section (circular keep) in the top left corner. But, I originally had the post title as Orford Castle until I’d re-read it a few times!

Yes, I originally had the title as Ordord Castle until I’d re-read it a few times!

It certainly does! I wonder if there’s a real life castle they are based on.

This one?

Where are the bedrooms or sleeping area?

Just can’t trust anyone these days…

I was trying to make a joke about the character model looking like it had fallen through the floor.

I’m not sure he’s digging a hole when he seems to be stuck up to his chest! 😂

Yes, these precipts seem to be common in the TV industry

Ms Jefferies stresses the guidelines are not trying to put boundaries on storytelling … She says - and “these guidelines are just to bring it even more in line with the best practices in the film and TV industry”.

And I can’t think of news stories that show this is a problem in terms of leaking a story.

So, why not have the same degree of safety and protocols in game development?
