30 years ago this movie was released. It's corny at times and not very accurate, but it's pretty nostalgic for me. I saw it when it the day it was released in 95.

I decided to fire up the ole blue ray player and rewatch it tonight. I realized I had missed something when I first saw it: in one of the opening scenes, Dade, our antihero star, is "taking over a TV station" so he can watch the outer limits. Currently being broadcast is a very racist TV show about how white people are superior are better then black people and other minorities. The tape is ejected and we see the name of the videos "America first".

It made me laugh out loud how 30 years later we are still experiencing the same rhetoric, and the same racism, using the same titles.

Ooft, the prize is literally just a trophy, why would you cheat this? Skimming takes skill, but to win you surely need a healthy dose of luck too. Anyway, Easdale looks a fun place to visit

kirk's death is doing nothing to dent MAGA oppression or do anything good but the opposite, just like i said... "Mr. Trump, who has downplayed violence from right-wing or other supporters, said that he would like to designate a range of groups, including the loosely affiliated group of far-left anti-fascism activists, known as “antifa,” as domestic terrorists and bring racketeering cases against people funding protests."

A U.S. appeals court declined on Monday to allow Donald Trump to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook — the first time a president has pursued such action since the central bank's founding in 1913 — in the latest step in a legal battle that threatens the Fed's longstanding independence.

The decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit means that Cook can for now remain at the Fed ahead of its policy meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday, when it is expected to cut U.S. interest rates to shore up a cooling labour market.

The court denied the Justice Department's request to put on hold a judge's order temporarily blocking the Republican president from removing Cook, an appointee of Democratic former president Joe Biden.

As a human, I wouldn't want to say it, but as a cringy dad, I would feel compelled.

FBI Director Kash Patel said Tyler Robinson, the suspected killer of Charlie Kirk, wrote a note stating his intention to "take out" the influential conservative activist.

Patel, speaking to Fox & Friends on Monday, said the FBI had "forensic evidence" of the note, but that it had "since been destroyed."

They have a note but it's been destroyed. Yeah, nothing fishy about this BS at all and it goes without saying completely incompetent that they continue to leak half baked, incomplete investigative information.

I've been enjoying Pokemon Black 2 on my DSi XL, but I'm looking for something that can emulate other systems.

Performance wise, I'm looking for something that can play 3DS/2DS games. I'll play only a handful of games to relive my childhood before moving onto other systems. I'm skipping the AYN Thor since in the long run, I'll be playing mostly single screen games.

I really want something portable and pocketable, but putting it in my school bag is an option.

It needs to have good battery life. I play for only a couple of hours a day, just in between college classes, but I would like for it to last a few days.

"Having fewer total turbines means a wind farm could space them farther apart, avoiding airflow interference. The turbines would be nearly twice as tall, so they'll reach a higher, gustier part of the atmosphere. And big turbines don't need to spin as quickly, so they would make economic sense in places with average wind speeds around 5 meters per second... "
