I'd like to think, if it were all just a simulation, whoever running it would be better at it. :)

Reported as "not news", but I'm more inclined to let up and down votes do the work here, I tend to agree that celebrity news isn't really news, but this ones on the community.

Happened to me when I got a press sneak preview of Duke Nukem Forever. I reported that the game was garbage and the devs seemed oddly proud of not throwing out assets that were 14 years old.

"You don't know! You didn't play the whole thing!"

Yeah, you're right, I played what the marketing team WANTED me to see and it was trash tier, you think the stuff they DIDN'T want me to see was better?

End result?

The "One Bad Day" book was good with him, actually all the OBD books were pretty good.

Actually, never mind, I just realized this is !world@lemmy.world and not !politics@lemmy.world

World does not allow internal US news.

I mean, the Marvel stuff has all been gigantic and proves you don't need sex scenes. In fact, the one Marvel movie with a sex scene (Eternals) did the worst.

Weird that the US cities are:

Memphis, Tennessee
Baltimore, United States
New Orleans, United States
Detroit, United States
Cleveland, United States

Why the state for Memphis and the country for the others?

"I'm sorry, let me use smaller words." is one of my favorite insults. :)

I guess it depends on the definition of "Retro". I never got into racing games until Jet Moto and Wipeout on the original Playstation.

Summary

The U.S. Senate confirmed Kash Patel as FBI director in a 51-49 vote on Thursday.

His nomination, marked by controversy over his loyalty to Trump, raises concerns about the bureau’s independence.

Patel, a former public defender turned prosecutor and top aide in the Trump administration, declined to rule out politically motivated investigations, particularly against Trump’s opponents.

His confirmation follows his contentious role in the Trump classified documents case and reflects his alignment with a unitary executive model.

 

"Specifically, FEMA is authorized to identify, mobilize, and provide, at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency.  Emergency protective measures, limited to direct federal assistance, will be provided at 75 percent Federal funding."

I thought FEMA was out of money? 🤔
