No. On the Beach by Nevil Shute is a sci fi story about the survivors of a global nuclear war in Australia, and as a warning against the futility of war everyone eventually dies of radiation poisoning.

Team Humans Vs Team AI is a very fun option. Lots of civs have really fun team synergy.
Civ 6 was made much more to be a digital board game. The combination of little to no multiplicative bonuses and generally small adjacency bonuses means you have to micro manage city planning all the time. It bombards the player with so many individual decisions that each make little impact.
Civ 5 felt much more like an empire simulator. The biggest bonuses come from making “big” decisions, like which policy tree, who/when to war, which ideology. As the game progressed, there was typically no need to micromanage.
The combat in civ 6 is atrocious after they removed the ability to build roads offensively for war until you unlock military engies (way too late in the game). Civ 5’s road system took ages to get up and running, but the payoff was immense.
The civics tree system is better, but the policy card system is broken. It gives players too much flexibility, so everyone ends up running the same/similar set of cards every time. Tradition + Rationalism is a meme in Civ 5, but it did offer more esoteric strategies with different trees.
Techbros were pitching how we’d invent self replicating carbon capture nano machines in the future
If she is fluent in English then there are some legit options (as in, will comply with minimum wage laws).
There are tech “consulting”/talent agencies which offer gig work where you help assess AI, i.e. rate and correct LLM responses, correct road signs etc.
There are also some foreign news stations which run English programs, but pay gig workers to rate/correct their pronunciation.
Volkswagen got all the flack because they were the first to get caught. Subsequent independent testing revealed that basically all manufacturers cheated their emissions, and actually to a much larger degree than Volkswagen.

Why bother filling it with land when you can just find some crusty old map with some dashes on it as evidence that it belongs to you
Fujikawaguchiko is just the official name, most refer to it as Kawaguchiko (this is the main train station there).
Not that unusual in English either, e.g. Commonwealth of Massachusetts, State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Stratford-upon-Avon.
While certainly not the majority, feature phones (known as garakei) enjoy a cult following in Japan.
Bear in mind that feature phones in Japan were a literal decade ahead of smartphones in terms of features. They already had features such as GPS, email, internet browsers latest 90s and early 2000s.

On the surface it seems reasonable, but it tends to have misogynistic undertones, especially if said towards strangers.
It’s like when the paparazzi publishes photos of celebrities with no makeup without their consent. If her makeup skills are good, she gets accused of “deceiving” people about her real age/looks. If her makeup skills are bad, she just gets called ugly.
