The house doesn't always win. Four anecdotes in which "I was there" when game companies got fleeced. Thrice by individuals, once by their own publisher. First, id Software and our non-network code. John Carmack told me that while our game worked great on a network, they had hired a... show more

It was love at first sight when I first came face to face with a fox boy called Elf! 😍It was exactly a year ago that he came up to me to make a connection. I was struck by his soulful eyes and earnest face. I called him Elf as he was a little Christmas fox that appeared just before the holidays. He did not belong to the previous cemetery fox clan but got lucky when they had abandoned their territory and this golden ticket of foxy real estate was up for grabs. Elf had been an itinerant fox before, roaming the streets with no set territory of his own. He moved into the cemetery, brought his vixen Eliza around and together they reared their 4 cubs there successfully. Elf is a fantastic fox dad and I am so honoured to be is guardian and support him and his family. I am hopeful that he will be able to keep his precious territory and that he and Eliza will rear the next generation of cemetery foxes next spring.

You're not going to believe this shit! When I was a teenager living in Hanover, Massachusetts, I got into a couple of fights with a kid a bit younger than me but slightly bigger, named Andy Byron. He thought he was tough, so I had to put him in his place. I beat him up once or twice, but later, he and another buddy from Laurie Lane—I was the fuckin' new guy—jumped me, and I lost that fight. Turns out, he's the same guy who was caught cheating on his wife at the Coldplay concert! The guy clearly hasn't learned his lesson. When I knew him, I thought he'd be a competitor, he's now the CEO of Astronomy, but I also knew he'd be a complete sociopath, and it turns out I was right.

The 20-year-old Mujahid was the victim of a conspiracy between his acquaintance and doctors from the local medical college of Begrajpur in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh. Mujahid, a resident of the village of Sanjak, claims that a man named Omprakash has been threatening and harassing him for the past two years. Then the Mujahid was told that he had health problems that required examination. Accompanied by Omprakash, he went to the hospital, where doctors allegedly, without his knowledge, anesthetized him and performed a sex reassignment operation. As a result, Mujahid lost his penis and testicles. "He brought me here, and the next morning I had an operation. When I regained consciousness, I was told that I had been turned from a boy into a girl," Mujahid recalls. Omprakash subsequently allegedly told the man that he would have to live with him now, as no one from his family or village would accept him anymore. Omprakash also threatened to kill Mujahid's father and take away his share of the family land. He said that he had hired a lawyer and now he would force her to marry him.

A MIRACLE BEFORE OUR EYES Meet Asaf. He was critically injured three months ago when Hamas terrorists fired an RPG at the tank which he commanded. His three tank mates - Shlomi, Shoham, and Yuli - were all killed. Asaf suffered from burns over 85% of his body. He was in a coma for a few weeks. When Asaf woke up his first words were: “I must return to fighting in Gaza and I must go to the graves of my soldiers.” Yesterday, thanks to God, incredible doctors, and Asaf’s will to live and heal, he moved from the intensive care unit to the rehab unit. Asaf heard that his tank division was holding a ceremony to mark their leaving Gaza. He felt that he had to be there. WATCH to see the emotional moments when Asaf arrived at the ceremony and was greeted by his commanders and soldiers…

How Horror shaped video games. PLUS how different types of games perform horror. As I've said before, in 1988, at my first digital game job, I pitched a first-person game in which you'd shoot zombie sprites. A first person shooter, before anyone knew what that was. It was rejected. Five years later I was at id Software and lo and behold they were already far along on what amounted to the EXACT SAME IDEA I'd had. But of course much more advanced. I was super-excited to be on that project, let me tell you. 1/8

"On Thursday he called me to sit with his friends, something he usually wouldn't do. He told me how proud he was of me, that I was a fighter and that I was his pride. I didn't understand why he was telling me all this.” Bar Asraf's sister Lihi shared a memory of her brother. This weekend, Bar took his own life at the grave of his girlfriend, Liron Barda z"l. Liron was murdered by Hamas at the Nova massacre on October 7th. Last Wednesday, Bar danced at his brother Maor's wedding. Family members say he was happy, sang, hugged everyone, and was moved by the celebration. On Saturday, the family had gathered at their home. "At noon, he wanted to go to the pool," recalled Lihi. "We said we didn't have a membership, so he said, 'Okay.' When we couldn't find him, we started searching on foot. We thought about where he might be, and we said we'd go to Liron's grave. At first, I didn't see him. Then I saw him lying there. I shouted, 'Bar, get up!'" "Only then did I understand what had happened. At first, I was even afraid that they had killed him. I didn't understand what I was seeing." Bar's family said he and Liron were soulmates. "Liron would come to us all the time, especially on Tuesdays when Mom would make couscous. When he was on a trip to Colombia, she even flew in to surprise him. They were soulmates." Lihi shared that after Liron's murder, "At first he didn't sleep for a week, didn't talk, didn't eat, and didn't laugh. Then slowly he began to recover." "He went back to laughing, talking to people, and spreading Liron's love. He would organize meals for soldiers in her memory, and on Passover he organized the distribution of packages to the needy. He was a person who was always helping others." Bar's mother shared: "Liron was everything to him. She was his best friend and his psychologist. It was important to him to tell her about everything he did. After she was murdered, he would come to the cemetery almost every day. I told him not to go all the time, but only when he really felt the need to go and talk to her, and he listened." "Two months ago he was sitting in the living room and crying. I asked him, 'What happened?' and he told me: 'Mom, it's hard for me without Liron. There's no one to replace her. I miss her.' He hugged me and cried a cry I'll never forget, loudly." "Bar was a boy who loved life. He had a huge heart. He cared so much for his siblings and supported them," Bar's mother said. "On Shabbat, a few hours before leaving the house, he sat with me, ate some of the cakes I made and said to me: 'Mom, only you can organize something like [the wedding celebration], and make sure that nothing is missing.' Then I told him I was going to rest. He told me, 'You deserve it' - and when I went to bed, he just left." Bar's mother said to everyone mourning him: "Remember Bar not because of his tragic end, but because of his huge heart.”

Beware of Collins: How a "Friend" Scammed Me and 9 Others I am writing this to warn everyone in the Web3, Monad, Solana, and Nigerianad communities. There is a person among us named Collins (known on X as Collins) who acts like a kind, active community member, but he is actually a professional scammer. He has stolen over $1,500 from me and has done the same to at least 9 other people. Collins used a very clever strategy to steal our money. He started by being very active in our local Nigerian Telegram groups. He called himself a "Solana Maxi" and always posted screenshots of big wins making people think he was making $5,000 or $7,000 from trading. We didn't know it was all a "format" just to get our attention. I did not trust him at first. However, we started organizing Lagos State meetups. When I met him in person, he was always smiling and happy. He acted like a brother. Seeing his face in real life made me lower my guard. If we had stayed just "online friends," I would never have sent him even $1, but because of those physical meetings, I thought he was real. His scam started when he told me about a "special developer" launching a token. He claimed he had an insider connection and that we could make 5x or 10x our money. He asked me to contribute $2,000. I told him I didn't have it. A few days later, he came back and begged me not to miss the "update." I decided to try with $1,000. To make me trust him completely, he played a long game. When I asked for a refund a week later because I had an emergency, he sent the $1,000 back immediately. This was his biggest trick. It made me believe he was 100% honest. Soon after, he showed me more fake wins on X and told me another project was going live on December 22nd. Because he returned my money the first time, I trusted him and sent the $1,000 back to him. When the date came, he claimed the "dev postponed the listing." While I was waiting for that money, he came with another "emergency" project, asking for another $1,000. I told him I only had $500 left my last card. He took that too. Then the excuses started. He claimed he went to the village to see his parents and that the network was bad. He said he couldn't access his Bybit account because he left his SIM card behind. He even begged me for another $100 in SOL just to help him out while he was "stuck." Because I thought my friend was in trouble, I sent it, bringing the total to $1,600. Every time I asked for my money, he told me "don't worry" and promised to pay once he left the village. But two days ago, the truth came out. I checked X and found out he has been doing this to everyone. He uses his friendly face and community status to prey on people. He is not a trader; he is a thief whose goal is to see the end of his friends' hard-earned money. Please, do not deal with Collins or his sister Trader Nenyenwa 📊📈💎. He is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He will smile with you today and empty your wallet tomorrow. Don't let his "kindness" fool you like it fooled me.

Today I have to reach another city for an important work. Nearby petrol pumps had no petrol due to the ongoing #TruckDriversProtest so I was a bit tensed as to how I would reach my destination. I decided to wake up at 04:00 AM and reach the highway to take lift. Suddenly a truck stopped and driver offered me lift. He told me that he is from Rajasthan and he is going to return this truck to the owner. He told that today this is his last ride and from tomorrow he will do some other work. I asked, why? For which he replied it’s because of BJP, BjP has made laws in which we have to pay 10 lakhs and 10 year imprisonment if my truck meets with any accident. He told that he earns only 15k per month and doesn’t have his own house, he can’t pay this much. He started crying, I gave him some money when I reached the destination for the ride, that he denied And when I was getting down from the truck he said with tears, Babu ji don’t vote for bjp if you care for poor people in Bharat . I promised and left his truck with tears in my eyes 💔

Deion Sanders revealed what he told TCU RB Trey Sanders during the injury timeout👀 "I walked over to him because he was a kid that wanted to come here. The reason I didn't take him was because he sustained some significant injuries... But I still had love for the kid because he wanted to play for us. So, I went out there and I said, 'Son, now you know if you don't get up, they ain't got a chance. So I want you to get your butt up and get back in this game and be dominant like you've been.' That's what I told him. I wanted the kid to be dominant. His last name's Sanders, first of all, and he was the No. 2 on offense. That's what the conversation was."

"Yesterday on our way home, we broke down 2 hours away from home... on a busy interstate with three kids in tow. It wasn't exactly ideal, especially with a hungry newborn. I wouldn't get the baby out of his seat to feed him incase we got smacked by another vehicle on the highway, he was the safest in his seat. We called dispatch and AAA and an Alabama State Trooper showed up to help. I thought he was just going to divert traffic away from our lane, but he did so much more than that. He loaded the kids and I in his car and got us off the highway and to the closest rest stop. Sean stayed with the car to wait for the tow truck. He checked the bathroom for 'boogieman so Madeline could use the restroom. He shot illuminating helicopters in the sky with the kids while I made calls to try to get home. Major got really fussy when I was trying to wrangle my other children and calm them down from the evening's happenings. Without hesitation, he took Major out of his seat and gave him the bottle I had prepared from earlier. It seemed like he does that every day, knew how to hold him and when to burp him. Major even filled his pants during his feeding and the trooper laughed and continued feeding him. He then helped unload all our stuff from our car to his and drove our family to the nearest hotel. It was late, nothing was open, and we couldn't get a rental car until the morning. He helped unload our unruly amount of crap into our hotel room, told us where all the rental car places were, gave the girls a hug, and told us to call if we needed anything. That my friends... is humanity." 🙏

In fifteen years of nursing I've watched countless patients say goodbye to the people they love — but I'd never seen a goodbye like the one in that dim hospital room at 2 a.m., when a dying old man reached a trembling hand down to the dog they'd smuggled in for him, rested it on that grey head, and whispered four words I'll never forget: "Don't leave me, boy." His name was Frank, eighty-four, and he'd come to us in his final decline with almost no one. A widower. His kids scattered across the country, one on a plane that wouldn't land in time. He wasn't afraid, the way some are. He was just… alone, in that particular way that breaks a nurse's heart no matter how many times you see it. He talked about one thing more than any other. Not his children. Not the past. A dog. An old shepherd mix named Duke he'd had for twelve years, who was staying with a neighbor while Frank was in the hospital. "Is Duke okay?" he'd ask. "Somebody's feeding Duke?" Over and over. That dog was clearly the great love of his quiet later years. On his last night, when it was clear he had hours and not days, I made a call I probably shouldn't have. I phoned that neighbor at midnight. And bless her, she got in her car and brought Duke to the hospital, and we quietly walked that old dog up the back way and into Frank's dim room. Duke went straight to the bed like he'd been looking for it his whole life. He put his front paws up on the mattress and pushed his big grey head against Frank's side, and the old man — who'd barely moved in a day — slowly, slowly lifted one shaking hand and laid it on the dog's head. His eyes were wet. His voice was barely there. But we all heard it. "There you are," he breathed. "Don't leave me, boy. Stay with your old man." Duke let out a low sound and pressed closer, and he did not move from that bed. And what happened in the hours after is something none of us on that floor have ever been able to talk about without our voices giving out.

In fifteen years of nursing I've watched countless patients say goodbye to the people they love — but I'd never seen a goodbye like the one in that dim hospital room at 2 a.m., when a dying old man reached a trembling hand down to the dog they'd smuggled in for him, rested it on that grey head, and whispered four words I'll never forget: "Don't leave me, boy." His name was Frank, eighty-four, and he'd come to us in his final decline with almost no one. A widower. His kids scattered across the country, one on a plane that wouldn't land in time. He wasn't afraid, the way some are. He was just… alone, in that particular way that breaks a nurse's heart no matter how many times you see it. He talked about one thing more than any other. Not his children. Not the past. A dog. An old shepherd mix named Duke he'd had for twelve years, who was staying with a neighbor while Frank was in the hospital. "Is Duke okay?" he'd ask. "Somebody's feeding Duke?" Over and over. That dog was clearly the great love of his quiet later years. On his last night, when it was clear he had hours and not days, I made a call I probably shouldn't have. I phoned that neighbor at midnight. And bless her, she got in her car and brought Duke to the hospital, and we quietly walked that old dog up the back way and into Frank's dim room. Duke went straight to the bed like he'd been looking for it his whole life. He put his front paws up on the mattress and pushed his big grey head against Frank's side, and the old man — who'd barely moved in a day — slowly, slowly lifted one shaking hand and laid it on the dog's head. His eyes were wet. His voice was barely there. But we all heard it. "There you are," he breathed. "Don't leave me, boy. Stay with your old man."

UPDATE!!! Alex Criminal Network was also arrested! His daughter advised Damian. PCSD arrested DAA-JUICE after he was in front of Nancy Guthrie's home 5 minutes. Deputies said that when Juice was previously charged, that was considered a warning and that he was not supposed to return to the neighborhood, though, he was never informed of that restriction. Deputies stated the citation was for public nuisance. It also appeared that 857Tucson was being cited. On camera, the sheriff told 857 he was being instructed to take this action. I did not hear deputies read Juice his Miranda rights on camera. You can cut to 857 live video now! He got a ride back to his car left the neighborhood.

Just a reminder - Nicholas Guarino insisted that John couldn’t have been inside Brian Alberts house between 12:22-12:24 when his apple health data shows him going up and down 3 flights of stairs because he was really on a flat street that was causing his phone to do that. But Jennifer McCabe made Ryan Nagel show her a screenshot of his text messages to his sister Julie, which shows he was outside the house at 12:23. Ryan got there seconds after John did, which means John was inside the house at 12:23, not on Oakdale Street.

I was the victim of a hit and run in Prospect Park. This cyclist, Kevin, crashed hard into me from behind on the hill in Prospect Park. I asked for his info multiple times. His friends he was racing with told him to leave and then he did while I was trying to file a police report

One beautiful story from Pogi Challenge: Norwegian young cyclist and my friend Patrick Mork who is 15 years old: “I was at the Pogi challenge, which was a beautiful experience by itself, but then when Tadej rode next to me and then in front of me of course I asked him for his sunglasses (while I was pushing 7 W/kg 🤭), he said to meet him after the finish that he would give them to me. And when I arrived at the finish, he was right there doing the interviews, he knew who I was and he gave them to me without hesitation. It was absolutely beautiful and I got 17th place out of like 1300 peopleand I hope one day I will race against Pogi in a race.”

Two-Toed Tom wasn't always the terrifying giant that the people of Prospero knew and feared. He started out as a tiny little thing, raised by Farmer Swopes, a cruel man who starved his animals for entertainment and profit. But Swopes' cruelty became his own undoing: when Tom was finally freed from his captor, he did everything in his power to ensure he'd never go hungry again. #TwoToedTuesday
