Maps during similar periods of Earth history have been laughably inaccurate, so we assume that Faerunian cartographers are offering “best estimate” distances.

Hard disagree on this as a gauge, they have access to magic that can answer universal truths. If a cartographer or merchant of that time period had the access to those answers they’d’ve been uses then too. You can cast a spell as simple as Message (with a known max distance) along with Find Familiar to measure distances as you document, and you have wizard researchers that have access to Wish (or clerics that talk to gods) for creating fixed, atomically precise, measuring tools.

I don’t disagree with the rest of your post but this addition really weakens your argument because they have so many more resources in the setting.

Edit: oops this was meant to reply to one you your other replies

You can keep casting it till it stops in a measured location, then know how far you can cast it and have that as a measure later. Think of it like having a slingshot that shoots 120ft but in a straight line.

I experience people telling me the computer runs slower on Linux every day, good to have yet another, updated, link to prove otherwise.

CD Projekt recommends starting a new game when Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 drops: 'starting fresh will enhance your overall gameplay experience' (www.pcgamer.com)

Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a mammoth-sized update, titled Update 2.0, tomorrow, September 21, and it promises to be a bit of a game changer. A police revamp, a progression overhaul, a new cybernetics system, vehicular combat, DLSS 3.5—it's vast, and thankfully separate from the Phantom Liberty expansion due next week, so you'll...

Wait for them to iron out whatever kinks again, wait for 2.1/2.02

Great news, the Melee community has weeded virtually all of those terrible out, though I’ve heard that most of them I’ve heard just went to Ult (whose community is fairly disconnected). I used to avoid the entire game because of the community, but now that it’s not being run by people in their low 20s or younger, I actually finally picked up the game.
