"Trump is a fucking idiot who gets rolled by anyone who's nice to him" theory remains undefeated, putting someone like Mamdani in there is like having Randy Johnson sub in for a 5th grade Little League game
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?
TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

Trump falling in love with the last person who has an ounce of charisma to speak to him is the most predictable result in history

Good news. Maybe someday soon we’ll be able to reclaim and rehabilitate the movement-based shooter.
Terrible launch for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 in Europe. The game sold 63% fewer copies at launch compared with Battlefield 6. It's also more than 60% down over last year's Black Ops 6. (Digital and physical sales. GSD Data) www.thegamebusiness.com/p/call-of-du...

But a strong launch for Ubisoft's Anno 117: Pax Romana

Iowa City made its buses free. Traffic cleared. So did the air. That's because fossil fuels are massively polluting.
Ridership jumped, people cut back on driving and, over the summer, the city extended the program another year.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

I played this game once at a friend’s house and thought it was brave and cool that it had no HUD and the player character vocally announced how many bullets he had left
I consider it my professional obligation to inflict as much collateral psychic damage on passing web designers as possible.

one thing about this is that in the wake of all of this kirk is basically forgotten. he was barely cold in the ground before his allies — before his *wife* — started scheming over what they could take for themselves. a real life parable.
New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

As with any awards show, I will celebrate the Good Winners as positive examples of cultural reflection and understand the Bad Winners as flaws of whatever election process was used, or as the undue influence of capital
we should go back to calling them the spike vgas just so everyone knows the correct amount of respect to afford them

I guess "modern American masculinity is a neotenous emotional state where the culture permits, and even cultivates, juvenile developmental qualities into adulthood" is just a fancy way of saying "everyone is twelve now"
Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino "also revered Starship Troopers, Robert Heinlein's 1959 military sci-fi classic about an interstellar war between humans and alien bugs - a book his sister says he still reads to this day."
An endless amount of deranged details in this interview with Greg Bovino's sister, but most notably that his uncle produced the Jack Nicholson movie The Border and the depiction of the agent as corrupt radicalized him as a 12-yr-old.
"Since then, he was like, 'Dude, I want to do Border Patrol.'"
