I was today years old when I learned that a travel guide was produced for the Game Boy in 1991 and that it has a cute little pixel animation to represent the character of each major city it covers.

โA DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credibleโand that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.โ

New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.
DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
The feature, which launched in August, claims to help you โsharpen your message through the lens of industry-relevant perspectives.โ When users select the โexpert reviewโ button in the Grammarly sidebar, it analyzes their writing and surfaces AI-generated suggestions โinspired byโ related experts. Those โindustry-relevant perspectivesโ include the likes of Stephen King, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Carl Sagan, among many others. The Verge found numerous other tech journalists named in the feature, as well, including former Verge editors Casey Newton and Joanna Stern, former Verge writer Monica Chin, Wiredโs Lauren Goode, Bloombergโs Mark Gurman and Jason Schreier, the New York Timesโ Kashmir Hill, The Atlanticโs Kaitlyn Tiffany, PC Gamerโs Wes Fenlon, Gizmodoโs Raymond Wong, Digital Foundry founder Richard Leadbetter, Tomโs Guide editor-in-chief Mark Spoonauer, former Rock Paper Shotgun editor-in-chief Katharine Castle, and former IGN news director Kat Bailey. The descriptions for some experts contain inaccuracies, such as outdated job titles, which could have been accurately updated had Superhuman asked those people for permission to reference their work.

I know rage and upset and OWNING THE LIBS is very much the point, it's indeed very boring and miserable. But the sheer nuclear-level stupidity of it still gets me, man!
With every terminally stupid step we take towards [future I have been terrified of since I became even mildly politically aware], the further we walk into this reality www.gamedeveloper.com/business/cal...

Live service is tough! A โreviewโ of one in a month will be as incomplete as one now or six months from now.
Use your collective imaginations and take a risk and change things!

Glad people are settling on the term "pervert glasses". Bonus points if you also say it while posting a picture of Mark Zuckerberg or call them Mark Zuckerberg's pervert glasses.

A few years ago I asked what's the most American thing you can think of it and I guess this has taken its place. The secret police performatively praying over fast food hamburgers before a hard day's work disappearing immigrants. They'd call you a hack for making a joke like that. I feel like one just noticing it having happened in real life.

We heard some folks get nervous about attending gaming events in person, for a lot of reasons. @heartimecia.bsky.social has some hard-earned advice for having fun, being respectful, and getting the most out of cons like GDC.

I can read a bunch of stuff on the computer and diagnose myself, but if a company does that and misdiagnoses me without a medical license they would be liable. This isnโt hard to understand, is there some kind of gas leak happening over there?
SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.

I feel so lucky to be able to do EMS. People do you the honor of letting you help them on a shitty day. There is trust there, at least there is much of the time, and it moves me to tears to think about it.
I do this stuff for many reasons. Today, one of the big ones was to try and clear my head a bit before traveling for work (travel can be... challenging for me. Yes, I feel calmer and more in control 99% of the time in the back of an ambulance during a horrible crisis than I do in an airport).
I had a VERY busy day on 911 today, stayed a bit late, had some amazing calls, some difficult ones, and some tough situations. But I feel very good about how things went today, overall. I truly hope I was able to help some ppl feel safe and cared for.

Took a vacation day at work, spending half of it on the ambulance for some solid head-clearing!
