@CatImperator @Clint_Davey1 There's a large market for it, but EA don't fancy it or don't have the talent to make it anymore

@Clint_Davey1 Why we are not getting similar games anymore I would be happy with just a remake/remaster

One of the coolest things in Command and Conquer Generals is how the USA can build F-22 Raptors. Unlike many other RTS games, aircraft operate in a semi-realistic way. So you can assign the Raptors an area to patrol - including targeting enemy air or just targeting anything. It's basically a Combat Air Patrol over a certain area. Or you can order them to strike a specific target. Once they've fired their missiles they return to their airfield to refuel and resupply. It looks awesome.

Ten million people have watched an MIT professor accidentally destroy the executive coaching industry. He filmed the lecture once in January 2018 and died eighteen months later. Executive coaches charge fifteen thousand dollars a session to teach a third of what he covered in one hour for free. His name was Patrick Winston. He ran the MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory from 1972 to 1997 and wrote the AI textbook every computer science major in the world read for thirty years. Every January for four decades, he gave a lecture called "How to Speak." His entire framework fits on a napkin. Do not read. Be in the image. Keep images simple. Eliminate clutter. Start with an empathetic connection. End with a punch line the audience can repeat over dinner. Never open with a joke. Never end with "thank you." That last rule alone has probably cost the executive coaching industry a hundred million dollars. "Your success in life will be determined largely by your ability to speak, your ability to write, and the quality of your ideas. In that order." That is the actual opening line of the lecture. Winston believed it strongly enough to spend fifty years teaching computer scientists how to talk. Founders spend $80,000 on an MBA and then hire a communications coach to teach them the same material Winston filmed once for free. Engineers write brilliant code and lose promotions to teammates who watched this lecture on the train. The lecture is free on MIT OpenCourseWare. The textbook is free on his page. Winston died in 2019. Almost none of the ten million viewers have actually implemented the four rules on the napkin. The napkin is free. The willingness to actually use it in your next meeting is the entire edge.

Classic SNL was so good. This is such an interesting skit comparing it to the show now, knowing how far left it is. What was once pure comedy has become their platform. Funny how things change. Phil Hartman was awesome!!!!!!! 🔥🤣

This so funny

This is one of the few films to accurately depict the terrifying reality of an underwater nuclear explosion, far from the traditional mushroom cloud.

🚨“I TRIED TO THANK HIM… THAT’S MY WHOLE WORLD… THAT’S MY DAUGHTER.” New video shows the moment a Chattanooga police officer rushed into a burning apartment to help a mother and her two children get out safely. In this Ring doorbell footage, you can hear Rachel Blaylock yelling “there’s a fire!” as flames spread. Blaylock says Officer Eli Rogers didn’t hesitate to jump into action, and she’s not sure her family would have made it out without him. SALUTE!! 🫡

@messedupfoods 😆

the guy is sitting there just taking it because it was definitely her idea to go to this restaurant and he knew it would be a bad idea from the beginning

Marine mammals are the most insane group of animals. Like what do you mean you sleep in a place where have to wake up every few minutes to go find some air to breathe.

They are lying to you about Alzheimer's disease

@MarioNawfal Grenade deals with that

@labanderaes What a surprise

🔴 Los organizadores del Orgullo Gay de Berlín piden que no se use políticamente el atentado islamista con coche que dejó un muerto y 29 heridos.

@Acyn So taxpayers are funding this?

Mamdani: Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores. This core set of goods will include all fresh produce, meat, and seafood, along with 20 other essential items like cheese, milk, and bread. Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five city-run grocery stores will set prices for this core set of goods at 30% below typical retail prices. No exceptions, no gimmicks. The savings will last for the entire month. That means no weekly fluctuations or sticker shock at the checkout line—not for our seniors living on fixed incomes, nor for the parents who rely on a regular supply of apple slices to keep toddler tantrums at bay.

😍👏 This Toni Kroos pass to Vinícius Júnior was so delicious that Jude Bellingham stopped and applauded.

@Sargon_of_Akkad Question who's paying for this?

This should just be illegal. It ought not to be allowed for foreigners to do this in our country.

So Ann, 78-year-old former minister gets brutally murdered in her home by hammer, & Labour councillors refuse 60 seconds of silence out of pure partisan spite? Absolutely vile. They lecture us on empathy daily, then pull this. How is this normal?

El exagente de la KGB, Yuri Bezmenov, advertía que un país no se destruye con bombas. Se lo desmoraliza. Se reescribe su historia y se enseña a su pueblo a avergonzarse de su propio país. Cuando eso ocurre, las personas dejan de defenderlo. Ahora escuchen lo que dice Zohran Mamdani en la ciudad de Nueva York.

More than eight decades after the attack on Pearl Harbor, USS Arizona (BB-39) still lies beneath the waters of the harbor where she was destroyed on December 7, 1941. The battleship rests in relatively shallow water, with significant portions of her hull remaining on the seafloor despite the immense damage inflicted during the attack. The explosion that tore through her forward magazine destroyed much of the bow and caused the loss of more than 900 sailors and Marines, whose remains are still entombed within the wreck. For this reason, USS Arizona is not simply a sunken battleship, but a protected war grave and one of the most significant military memorial sites in the United States. Above the submerged hull stands the USS Arizona Memorial, completed in 1962. The structure was deliberately designed to span the wreck without resting directly upon it, allowing the battleship to remain undisturbed below. From the memorial, visitors can look into the water and see parts of the ship that still remain beneath Pearl Harbor. Even today, the wreck continues to change. Corrosion and marine growth slowly affect the remaining steel, while small amounts of fuel oil continue to escape from the ship, producing the phenomenon widely known as the “black tears” of USS Arizona. The site is carefully monitored by the National Park Service and the U.S. Navy, ensuring that the wreck remains both a protected historic site and a lasting memorial to those who never returned from the attack.

Swordfish (2001) - Best Worst Job Interview Ever One of the most ridiculous hacking scenes in movie history: John Travolta and Halle Berry make Hugh Jackman hack into the DoD while Vinnie Jones holds a gun to his head, and Laura Lane distracts him in a very different way.

Horrors not beyond comprehension are still horrors. Getting dunked into the vampire worm pond would be a pretty terrible way to go.
