Additional side note: If any game needs *nothing* but a graphics update, it's Wing Commander. Don't update the story, don't add nine zillion detailed settings for nerds who read 50-page manuals, just update the graphics and let me go blow up arrogant Kilrathi princes
On a side note, I think classic BSG was named as an influence on the first Wing Commander game, especially for the launch sequences.

It’s SO good.

It lived up to my expectations! I don’t mind saying, this is the future I want to see…what I’ve always wanted. So many years I did not vote because I felt I had no voice and my life would never change. I hope to see more like this 🤞🙏

These people are operating outside the State Department, rather like the “Three Amigos” of Trump’s first term.
Steve Witkoff, a special envoy for President Trump, and Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, are expected to meet with President Vladimir Putin of Russia in Moscow on Tuesday, as the White House pushes for an end to the war in Ukraine. Follow live.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Even RUSSIA doesn’t like FOTUS’ plan.
NEW: Russian officials and state media continue to set information conditions to reject the US-proposed 28-point peace plan, indicating that the Kremlin is actively conditioning the Russian people to not accept anything less than a full victory in Ukraine. 🧵(1/8)

Brevard County is probably the most Florida county in the state due, in part, to their sheriff who loves a camera almost as much as he loves Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump.
There is no way that I could live in a place with Bubbas like these roaming the streets and enforcing the law.

While I was playing around videoing airplanes flying under the aurora last night, I had my other camera taking stills. Here's 1661 stills connected covering 55 actual minutes. The bright, fast moving streaks are the airplanes. I sped this up faster than normal because we all have swiping to do.
