Ardmore Construction Group is going into administration today. £350m turnover. 10 live London projects abandoned this morning. Hotels in Mayfair and Kensington. Residential towers. King's Cross life sciences campus. If you live in London, you've almost certainly walked past a building they built. This isn't a business failure. This is what post-Grenfell liability looks like when it finally catches up with you. Building Liability Orders under the Building Safety Act can now pierce corporate structures and pursue parent companies for historic defects. Barratt, Taylor Wimpey and Bellway were all in the queue. Clients got nervous. New work dried up. Cash flow collapsed. 100 jobs. Unpaid subcontractors. Projects without a contractor. Ardmore won't be the last. #UKConstruction #BuildingSafety #Grenfell #BuildingLiabilityOrder #London #PropertyDevelopment #UKProperty constructionenquirer.com/202…

Up until the early 90s, Sierra games had a very distinct style. Space Quest III is a perfect example - it literally illustrates my point. I know they "had to go with the times" and changed their style in later years. It became smoother and, to a degree, more mainstream. I might be one of the few who didn’t like the switch - I preferred their original chunky pixel art. To me, those games will always be emblematic of Sierra’s legacy. Whenever I replay the older classics like King’s Quest, Space Quest, Leisure Suit Larry, and Police Quest, there’s something oddly comforting about them, like catching up with an old friend after many years. Just look at these four screenshots and tell me they aren't full of wonder, skill, and soul. They had to work with limited color palettes and low resolutions, yet every shot is packed with incredible detail. It's so easy to get lost in them. I assume younger generations might not see it the same way. And yes, maybe nostalgia is hitting me hard right now - but I still believe one of the main reasons so many of us remember Sierra so fondly is their art style. It had a certain magic that has never been replicated.

A certain percentage of people will believe literally anything, however stupid, provided the government or authorities or 'science' tell them it's true. Another percentage of people will believe literally anything, however stupid, provided it's presented to them as something the government or authorities or 'science' is trying to hide. Only a small minority will decline to believe either - unless it makes sense and is backed by hard evidence. This is the root of the problem.
