Love ‘em! I think one of Banks’ Culture books even has a river running through one. I really believe it’s more a matter of when and not if. We probably won’t see one, unless longevity treatments become a thing.

XboX R-Cade - It’ll have an NFC chip reader for card transactions and a slot for bills.

Ah Greenland, the Australopithecus of EU dominance.

That’s probably the origin for the Hungarian. Ton of words borrowed from our EU daddy.
