Getting Started with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

 

Get it

 https://www.flightsimulator.com/

Get it from the above.

You can also get it from Steam but it is more expensive there.

 How to get the best game at the moment, Microsoft Flight Simulator for us$1 or actually rm32, for a month. get a us address from comGateway. Put that address into your microsoft account. buy xbox MYR 41.72 ( MYR 41.72 ( $10 ))gift for rm32 from kk gamezone in Shopee. He will send a redemption code within minutes in the chat, and use it to pay xbox pass by redeeming.  Do not enter any backup payment. If you had, like me, remove them first.

I just want to experience Microsoft Online gaming experience. It is very bad compared to others. The best is still Steam. GOG is good for complete games, untouched by any protection but little online, although GOG Galaxy is attempting to beat Steam.

Steam can share games with 4 others but cannot play at the same time. xbox app, may need to setup family accounts.

Although downloading 100GB it was reported to take 3 hours even with 500Mb/s line like mine. It was an hour, still downloading.

Practical Fusion Reactor Now

Inverse: Mars map with water: incredible terraforming image shows Elon Musk’s dream.

https://www.inverse.com/innovation/mars-with-water-map


"The proposal is bold, but Musk has clarified that in practice it would involve a continuous stream of low-fallout nuclear fusion explosions above the poles, acting as artificial suns."


Sooner or later we will colonise MARS. The water comes from meteors.


The quotation above gave me the idea for fusion electrical generators. What is needed is just a huge underground building to contain the smallest hydrogen, which is 2 times larger than the bomb in Hiroshima.


You may say it is ridiculous but the superconducting magnets they build in France for a Fusion generator, is huge, but used to contain the Fusion Explosions, the smallest possible.


What it means is that Fusion reactors cannot be small. It has to be bigger than Hydro dams, but at least we can build them now, instead of waiting for breakthrough in electromagnetic containtment.
