I, a German apprentice witch, performed an Ancient Chinese... witchcraft called "Nuo" , a sorcery played with fire and masks. Nuo sorcery can be dated back to 2000 years, and even the Genshin Impact character Xiao is based on this cultural legacyshow more

Based on Chinese state media posts, I believe DRO-B... is now in a 3:2 resonance orbit touring the Earth-Moon L3, L4 and L5 points. To prove this, I found a Chinese paper on the topic and was able to model such an orbit in GMAT. Now to develop a search plan.show more

I cooked for the first time in years. The... dish was 'Ash,' a Persian stew. You'd expect a culinary disaster, right? WRONG. It's suspiciously alarmingly yummy. I'm starting to think the pot did all the work and I just stood there for moral support. What sorcery is this?😜show more

To come back to Ole Miss Football and develop... young men on and off of the football field that I once played on is beyond a blessing. To be able to share it with my wife and children makes it even greater. Once an Ole Miss Rebel Always an Ole Miss Rebel‼️ #ComeToTheSip #HottyToddy 🙏🏾🔝🙌🏾show more

When even Senate Democrats admit their brand is 'really... bad,' you know they’re in trouble. Culture matters, and they lost the people long ago. Sen. Mark Warner at The Munich Security Conference: "I think the Democrats' brand is really bad. And I think this is an election based on culture. And the Democrats' kind of failure to connect on a cultural basis with a wide swath of Americans is hugely problematic." #MSC2025 POLITICO #MSCpoliticoshow more

Based on what I played, it’s clear this will... be a massively epic game in length, scope and depth. The visual fidelity on a base PS5 is ASTOUNDING, and, as you'd expect, the cinematics and story sequences are next level.show more

Sakura vs Jinx, created with the AI Seedance 2.0.... Artificial intelligence is evolving at an impressive speed. It is already capable of generating a fight between a 2D character and a 3D character in a way that feels natural and believable. What is even more surprising is that this can be created in just a few minutes with a single prompt. Something that previously required a large team, significant resources, and a long production time can now be generated with just one well-crafted prompt.show more

Devil Jin's BF2,1 can be punished by moves up... to i14 with a "1+2" input specifically by inputting a sidestep (u or d) prior. This "bug" has been on the character for over 10 years now. I thought they fixed this piece of legacy with the release of T8, apparently not. #t8_reportshow more

Watching this loop, I can’t shake the feeling I... look like a video game character. Imagine one where you play a wolf-warrior guarding an ancient forest & restoring what still breathes and fighting back what wants to kill it. What WtA: Earthblood failed to be. Would you play it?show more

Even our surfers are built completely different down here.... 🏄 This salt-crusted Florida lunatic ain't just riding a wave — he's juggling three balls in the impact zone. Surfing takes core strength and balance. Juggling takes hand-eye coordination. Doing both on a moving chunk of the Atlantic with bull sharks circling below? That's years of unemployment, zero fear, and pure beach-bum sorcery. California surfers drop ten grand on a custom board & cry about the wind. This guy grabbed a thrift store board, some tennis balls, and decided to mock physics while the rest of the country can't even walk and chew gum. Only in Florida. Never change, you beautiful crazy bastard. 🌊🌴show more

After 25 years, I am back on the big... screen with #Jatadhara and it has been nothing short of a thrill! Playing an intense and complex character like Shobha was something completely new and different for me.show more

The narrative that the Montreal anti Israel protests had... an antisemitic effigy of a Jew is faulty. The effigy appeared to be of Ben Gvir, and was paraded along with effigies of Trump and Netanyahu. This is political extremism, but I don't think it can be called antisemitic.show more

The 5-12 age range is called the "Golden Years"... for a reason. Miss this window, and you could be playing catch-up forever. Ball mastery can really help with this.show more

The one thing we absolutely know with certainty about... the Richat Structure is that there was an incredible amount of human activity here from the dawn of toolmaking and tool use itself. The Acheulean Hand Axe is the second tool that humans ever made and this technology spread throughout Africa, Europe and Asia while no definitive evidence exists that this technology ever made it to the Americas. I think this is evidence that this technology was shared and disseminated intentionally, that neighboring humans didn’t come up with this independently on their own but this was a legacy, an institution, a skill and an industry that was shared and taught. It is perhaps the earliest evidence we have of widespread cultural diffusion throughout Africa, Europe and Asia. And yes, it’s right there at the Richat Structure which leads me to question the role that the Richat played to humans half a million years ago. It seems like that’s where we have to start with the Richat.show more

AM2R is a triumph. The original Metroid 2 on... Game Boy was my first Metroid game, back when I was about 7. I've since played it about ten times. Over the years I've played all the 2D Metroids over and over, 5 to 20 times each. I don't usually play fan games, but this week I decided to finally give AM2R a shot (on Hard with an Xbox controller), and I gotta say... it's fantastic. It's simultaneously a more faithful remake than Samus Returns, and more satisfying to play and 100% complete. I like Samus Returns alright -- it's probably my least favorite 2D Metroid, still a good game though. But I think AM2R is even better.show more

The newest patch for Genshin Impact is not fully... voiced due to the strike and because Formosa is still being difficult with AI protection. Paimon’s VA was moved to a different studio to get paid, and on time. If this continues, she may be the only EN voice in future updatesshow more

So I'm planning on developing a wheelchair-bound character for... my fighting game, and this is the one other fighting game character I can use to reference. Whatshow more

This is quite funny. We're visiting Kamakura in Japan... and we came across a large group of Chinese tourists in a place that, at first glance, looked nothing special. Turns out that this very spot is one of THE most iconic locations in Japan for Chinese people who grew up in the 1990s. Why? Because in the 1990s there was this Japanese basketball manga called "slam dunk" that every kid was watching in China, and the opening credits featured an image of this very spot: a railroad crossing on a small street leading to the beach in Kamakura. Apparently this place is so popular with Chinese tourists that they had to cordon it off at some point. Now it's obviously reopened with 3 guards assigned to handle the traffic. And now that they've heard about it, it's my daughters' turn to be hooked on the series so maybe in 20 years' time they'll be perpetuating the passion and come back to this "Slam Dunk" shrine ☺️show more

The CUJU app uses AI vision to scout football... players. Developed by a German sports agent (Roger Wittman), the app was built to bypass traditional scouting networks and let anyone showcase talent. Over-13s film themselves doing 8 drills and the footage is scored for speed, agility and ball control. Top scoring players are invited to camps. Over 160,000 users have tried it and when the app opened in Brazil, it instantly had 80,000 sign-ups. “Cuju” is a play on a Chinese word meaning “kick ball”, an ancient Chinese sport with a leather ball from 2,000 years ago that FIFA recognizes as origin for the sport.show more
