I really loved Ninja Gaiden (2004), especially in Black and Sigma iterations. I thought the Wooden Sword/Unlabored Flawlessness progression was so cool that I copied it (sorta) in The White March.

Even before this entirely unsurprising news, you were a total mark if you consumed this slop.
my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements
we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Thinking about that AAA lead writer role I interviewed for in 2023. I asked how many writers would be on my team and they hesitated before saying, "Well, they're not exactly writers..." It was an all-AI "writing" team. They wanted me to train them all ☠️

The employment rate of non-EU born migrants exceeded that of the UK-born for the first time on record.
Confirms other evidence that recent migrants (even if they did not arrive on work visas) are very likely to be working/have high employment rates.

Visited the barren, overgrazed Hen Tor common yesterday with @tonydartmoor.bsky.social - an ‘ecological dead zone’, as he called it
This is an SSSI that’s now in declining condition with barely any heather left & a single rowan growing on a rocky ledge - and even that had been browsed by sheep!

Reality is now so internet poisoned you cannot say true things without appearing insane. “The New York Times ran a hit piece on Zohran purely so a minor race science blogger could place insider trades on Polymarket” sounds like you are a schizophrenic but it is straightforwardly factual!

Biggest discount yet on Selaco, which I am already happy to call one of the best indie FPS titles in YEARS and there's still a ton more of it to come through early access.
Just a seriously good fusion of FEAR and Half-Life design with good mod support and a bunch of extra modes & mutators.
