Three hours to go! Now it's time for me to sit nervously waiting and hoping people like it haha

This is the one games-related story that we really can't let get buried by the worst guys you know fighting or summer geoff fest.

Tencent has acquired just over 15% of Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Game Studios. (Read more: Insider-Gaming)

“If we understand industrial CO2 as debt, then heat is the interest on that debt…we now find ourselves in the default zone.” And here come the repo-men… Another banger from @johnvaillant.bsky.social www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Love this story - the sacred (religion) providing sanctuary for the sacred (nature). Some of these trees protected by Chinese temples are thousands of years old www.nature.com/articles/d41...

NEW: Even after leaving public service, Elon Musk and DOGE employees are still subject to criminal conflict of interest laws. We're calling on the Office of Government Ethics to review whether Musk and others leaving DOGE complied with financial disclosure requirements.

Reasons why the Switch 2 STT allowing swear words is important. It let's us, as D/deaf and hard of hearing players, to remain fully involved in communication everyone else has access to audibly, clearly.

I love all this digital art that this one guy made in 1999 and uploaded to wikimedia commons

On June 14th NYers are uniting to reject Trump! This is also the first day of early voting, our opportunity to say NO to Cuomo. Trump & Cuomo are bought by the same MAGA billionaires! They are both medicaid cutters, slumlord lovers, abusers who have broken their promises & sold out working people.

Switch 2 Hardware Impressions: - It's a Switch, but better - Controller - Switch Pro Controller, but better - Easy setup/data transfer - eShop actually works the way it's supposed too There isn't much more to say. As a fan of Switch, I got what I wanted.

straight up what is even going on anymore

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet honestly feels like a new game on Switch 2. It's never going to be the best looking JRPG available on Switch 2, but now I'd recommend picking it up without hesitation. It's the game that should've released in 2022.

I've put together my thoughts and perspectives from my 35 yrs of NOAA on this comment and other discussions that came up in Sec. Lutnick's last couple of days on Capitol Hill. I remain very concerned for NOAA, OAR and NWS both short term and long term. balancedweather.substack.com/p/7535eb82-2...

The udder horror.

yes! tried to make this point in my most recent column with a reference to "the king's two bodies"

Switch 2 eShop Game Ranking at Launch: 1) Mario Kart World 2) Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Upgrade Pack) 3) Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour 4) Deltarune 5) Cyberpunk The Switch chart now goes up to 100 places and eventually, the Switch 2 chart will be the same.

American farmers, like Patrick, help keep our communities running. But Donald Trump has abandoned farmers and left them to pay the price for his trade war. Tariffs are a tax on working families and the agricultural community, who feed our country. #TheRealCost youtu.be/YLb1CvYmAVE

once again,

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

BREAKING: Trump has banned all foreign-national Harvard students and researchers from entering the US on student or foreign exchange visas. Shifts legal fight from one over State and DHS powers to presidential powers

I've already spent a TON of time playing Switch 2, here are my initial thoughts on the good and the bad of Nintendo's newest console: www.ign.com/articles/nin...

I wish them both the worst.

Really looking forward to The Game Business Live on Monday. I'll be doing a talk called Tariffs and Affordability: The US Consumer in Limbo - and I mean what better topic for first thing Monday morning? Incredible roster of other speakers. If you're going to be there would be cool to say hi.

As one person told me via DM: “They just gave me my replacement! Great Gamestop those people made an innocent mistake and don’t deserve any bad publicity!!” Another, from a Reddit post: "I actually feel terrible a simple mistake might cost these guys their job.”

Hey I love Kat's work I bet you would too

Today the CPSC announced that Midea is recalling it's line of U-shaped air conditioners. We had previously reported that these had gone missing, and have updated our article to reflect this. aftermath.site/midea-u-shape-...

talked to riley about why the switch 2 is the friends we made along the way

PSA: You don't need to do the full system transfer from Switch to Switch 2 if you have an NSO account. You can just do the silly Virtual Gamecard system and download games individually onto your system. It's time-consuming but less of a hassle than working out how to transfer Animal Crossing.

Strongly recommend this episode which for me is persuasive that the concept of UPFs is scientifically meaningless, and just repackages old snobbery about convenience food. It really does not deserve any place in policy, and I am dismayed by how seriously is is taken by colleagues.

It seems to be a quiet, uneventful day in the games industry. How about switching your attention to the trilogy reprint kickstarter? We're nearly 200% funded! 👇 www.kickstarter.com/projects/caz...
