Just putting this out there: despite running a website full time, I am open for contract work, whether it’s mock reviews, consulting, etc. I’ve done multiple before, most recently Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, and am looking to expand this year.

Expect we'll see a lot of this, so the Lego nerd logs on: IS IT? Let's compare...

The £589.99 Titanic is £0.07 per piece.
The £899.99 2025 Death Star is £0.10
The £579.99 Kanto Starter Evos are £0.12 per piece

So... this defo runs on the higher end, but is similar to other licensed sets
That LEGO Pokemon pricing is fucking extortionate. LEGO has been pretty bad value for a while now but £580 for that Charizard / Blastoise / Venosaur set?? £180 for a really basic and not very good looking Pikachu. I've no clue what's happened behind the scenes but it's a bad look for LEGO

There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good.

This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it.

The University of Oklahoma has stripped the graduate student who gave a failing grade to Samantha Fulnecky of instructional duties, calling their grading in this case “arbitrary.”

This is a disgraceful capitulation by a university to those who seek to destroy it.

I'm sure The Escapist article also led to this AI Overview, but here's yet another case of it making up information and damaging the reputation of more companies. Someone saw this and shared it, saying that PC Gamer confirmed Blue Prince used gen-AI, when that's not what happened at all.
