After two years, Digital Foundry attacked Stellar Blade, calling... it not flattering for a modern audience unlike Forspoken Well, SB became Sony’s most successful PC title ever, and Forspoken flopped so hard that the studio shut down and the staff was merged into Square Enix hahashow more

🎙️Memorable moments from the Match against Geng 🐯 The... most memorable one for me was Hyeonjun-hyung and his Olaf in Game 3. That stands out to me the most. I think our momentum shifted a lot after winning that game. It was a really critical match, and because we won the team fight so well, it remains the most memorable for me. 🐿️🐯✨show more

Keira Knightley says she won’t return to Pirates of... the Caribbean because the franchise destroyed her reputation. “I was seen as shit because of them, and yet because they did so well I was given the opportunity to do the films that I ended up getting Oscar nominations for.” “It’s a funny thing when you have something that was making and breaking you at the same time.” “They were the most successful films I’ll ever be a part of, and they were the reason that I was taken down publicly. So they’re a very confused place in my head.” Knightley also says the productions consumed years of her life. “The hours are insane. It’s years of your life, you have no control over where you’re filming, how long you’re filming, what you’re filming.”show more

Before tiles and vitrified floors, there was kaavi flooring,... a lime and red oxide craft from Kerala and the Konkan region in India 🇮🇳 Kaavi flooring is an ancient craft made from a mixture of lime, natural pigments, and red oxide. It’s not just decorative ,it’s functional, naturally cooling, low-carbon, and can last 50–100 years when properly maintained. Unlike modern tiles, kaavi ages with character. It ages better than most “modern luxury” floors. So why did we abandon materials that were literally built to outlast us?show more

🚨 CRYPTO: BITCOIN NETWORK HITS RARE TWO-BLOCK REORGANIZATION Not... an attack. Not a bug. Just Bitcoin doing what Bitcoin does. The network briefly split into two competing chains today at block height 941,880. AntPool mined one version of block 941,881, ViaBTC extended it to 941,882. Simultaneously, Foundry USA mined its own competing versions of both blocks. The tie was broken when Foundry kept winning. Seven consecutive blocks (941,879 to 941,885). AntPool and ViaBTC's blocks became orphans. Single-block reorgs happen periodically. Two-block reorgs are much rarer, meaning the tie persisted for an entire extra block cycle. Still well within normal consensus behavior. No $BTC or funds lost. No double spends. Just proof-of-work settling a race the way Satoshi designed it.show more

AIDAN KEARNEY SHARES IMPOUNDED INFORMATION WITH HIS AUDIENCE On... Sept 17th, while going through his motion to dismiss, Aidan Kearney shared with his audience information impounded by the court. In reference to a text message Jen McCabe sent to her daughter after Karen Read's arraignment, Aidan Kearney clearly states the name of the recipient of the text, Jen McCabe's daughter, information that had been NOT for public consumption as it was part of impounded materials. This is the same daughter that Kearney and his followers have relentlessly attacked and harassed for 2 years. Given this fact, it does not appear he did so by accident but rather to once again to provoke harassment of the young woman. Bederow Law maybe you should have a discussion with your client as to the meaning of such words as redaction and inpoundment. He seems to cross the line with sharing as you well know since he's shared screenshots of his discussions with you recently. Unlike those, what he shared here was protected by court order.

I was 11 years old when I got this... PSP 3000 for Christmas back in 2008, and it absolutely blew my mind. FIFA, FlatOut, Iron Man, GTA, and many other games… so many hours, so many great memories. Back then I didn’t even have a modern phone, so the PSP was more than just a gaming handheld for me. I used it to browse the internet, watch movies, and I even remember how awkward it was trying to chat with friends on social media using it. 😄 18 years later, I still have it. It still works. And every time I hold it, it instantly takes me back to those carefree days. The PSP will always be one of the most nostalgic handhelds ever made. ❤️show more

The F31 335d is an estate that looks calm,... sensible, and entirely normal. That is exactly why it works so well as an overachiever. With around 313 HP from the twin-turbo N57 and a huge wave of torque, it moves in a way people do not expect from a diesel Touring. 0–100 km/h in roughly 4.9 seconds puts it firmly into performance territorya and that is still stock. Though nothing about the styling suggests speed. It is not dramatic, and it does not ask for attention. That is the point. It delivers real pace inside a shape most people associate with practicality and restraint.show more

before The Best Thing aired, all I wished for... was a smooth broadcast at the right time. it was an A level drama adapted from a small IP with a small budget as it didn't have many promotions materials back then before airing. but surprisingly, during the airing, it was well received by the viewers. it achieved S+ rating and got more than 3 million rmb revenue from its merchandise. it became the only modern drama to maintain a long post-airing tail, with over +11 million views per episode even after its peak period ended. clearly shows that there are lots of new viewers and it has strong rewatch value. now, it has even become the most watched cdrama on iQIYI in 2025. congratulations to all casts & crew for these achievements🎉 also thank you for finding your way into my spring last year and warming it so gently, The Best Thing♡show more

Massive Attack turned down Madonna to make one of... the defining songs of the 90s.⁠ ⁠ "Teardrop" started as a harpsichord melody that producer Neil Davidge picked out in 1997. Band member Mushroom built the track out with him, adding piano and a beat sampled from Les McCann's "Sometimes I Cry." He became so attached to it that he went behind his bandmates' backs to send the demo to Madonna, with whom the group had collaborated on a reworking of Marvin Gaye's "I Want You." She responded immediately, calling it fantastic and asking if the offer was real.⁠ ⁠ It was the first Davidge or anyone else in the band had heard about it. According to an interview with Headliner, that same Sunday he stripped the song back to its essentials and rebuilt it from scratch. That session became the foundation of the released version, and Madonna was turned down. Fraser was later in the studio recording her vocals when she learned of Jeff Buckley's death. The two had been in a relationship in the mid-nineties, and Fraser has since confirmed it plainly in an interview with The Guardian: "That song's kind of about him. That's how it feels to me anyway."⁠ ⁠ The dispute proved to be the final fracture within the band. Mushroom departed not long after their album 'Mezzanine' was completed. The track peaked at number 10 in the UK and is now sitting at close to 400 million streams on Spotify, more than 25 years later.⁠show more

Well, a humanoid robot can move on two legs... or wheels, depending on the environment it faces. AGIBOT (Zhiyuan) from Shanghai revealed that their new generation of humanoid robot "Nezha" can autonomously switch to two wheels for fast movement when walking on two legs. Imagine that in the airport hall, when he walks down the stairs and sees a fallen object not far away, it can transform into a wheeled robot and move quickly to pick it up. Or in elderly care, when it see an elderly person fall, it can quickly move and help the elderly person up, and quickly provide medical supplies to the caregiver.show more

Already loving the story that Carmelo Hayes is creating... with US Title open challenges. Usually after First 48, he goes immediately for Nothing But Net. But his knee is still hurt after the Nakamura match so he couldn't go to the top rope fast enough and decided to go for the pinfall instead. Hitting his finisher with injured leg is extremely hard so he adjusted his gameplan and was able to get the win after reversing Superplex into a Cutter. All about the survival. Great stuff.show more

The invasion of Spain.. Unverified Reports circulating that a... woman has been raped (still trying to verify), and assaults are rising. Locals are reporting that law enforcement appears to have been told to stand down. From my understanding, European accounts are claiming that Facebook was heavily utilized to organize massive groups, with the intent to encourage everyone to come all at once. Facebook has not shut them down. *Note— the MSM is not covering this well, and most info is coming from locals. Information is hard to verify. There is an invasion, yes, but take everything else with a grain of salt.show more

You can't put into words what Paul Mullin means... to Wrexham. For all his heroics on the pitch, he transcended it through his connection with the fans and the community. He gave his all for the club and delivered when it mattered the most, time and time again. The type of goalscorer a generation was told about but had never seen themselves. The man who turned us all into believers and made those dreams come true. A victim of his own success, he propelled us up the leagues so quickly that we didn't get to enjoy him long enough. To do what he did while missing two pre-seasons is absurd. Most of all, he is a great person. Someone who always puts his family first and stands up for what he believes in. A working-class lad from Litherland, who became a global star. A true Wrexham legend and one of the very best to ever wear the shirt 👑 #WxmAFCshow more

As I sit here in DC this week, we... are closer to something I was not sure I would ever see. I have been working in this industry since 2015. For most of those years, the defining feature of crypto in Washington was not policy. It was the absence of it. A gray zone where serious people built serious things under a constant cloud, never quite sure which rules applied or whether the ground would move beneath them. This week the CLARITY Act sits on the Senate calendar. A federal framework for digital asset market structure, the thing this industry has wanted for the better part of a decade, is closer than it has ever been. It is not law yet, and there are real hurdles left. But the distance between where we stood a few years ago and where we are sitting today is hard to put into words. I keep thinking about the work that got us here. Over the past year I watched Chainlink move from outside these conversations to inside them. Sergey at the White House for the signing of the GENIUS Act. The Department of Commerce putting government economic data onchain. Meetings with the SEC that became real interpretive guidance. Conversations with the lawmakers now writing the rules. None of that happens by accident. It happens because people keep showing up, year after year, and make the case in rooms where it is not yet obvious. And there is something fitting in it. The entire premise of what we build is verification. Making truth provable. Removing the question of what is real. The work here in DC is the same thing in a different form. Trading a decade of ambiguity for something the industry has never actually had. We are not at the finish line. But sitting here, it is hard not to feel the weight of it. The gray zone is ending. What comes next is something this industry has never had. Clarity.show more
