Hundreds missing, including 291 foreign tourists, after deadly flash flood on Nepal-Tibet border
Holy shit! That's insane. Some of those videos are surreal, I can barely believe something like that can happen that fast.

Business schools are charging $28,000 to teach executives how to be "chief AI officer"

That's your problem, when you lower your prices this much, it loses the appeal to the rich. They start to think it's not premium enough, they see the showoff factor is low. Instead, sell it for 32k, that'll attract more of the vultures. They'll think it is an even more of a premium luxury experience.

Ontos - Wishlist Trailer | gamescom 2026
I'm so fucking excited for this game! SOMA is one of my favorite games of all times, and a sequel/successor has big shoes to fit in, but I think they can deliver.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this. If the price is right, and the single player experience is good, this could revitalize the franchise.

Cult-classic horror point-and-click adventure Sanitarium returns as Sanitarium Enhanced
I remember trying to play this as a child that didn't speak English as my native language. It was beyond hard, maybe I'll play it now.

I'm interested to see how they'll translate the classic game mechanics into a more action game.

Why does God allow evil and suffering?
Most of you should probably go ahead and read Ethics by Spinoza. This whole thing is just atheism circle jerk, nobody outside of atheists actually cares. There's plenty of ways religious people will just spin this with whatever bullshit interpretation. Spinoza's theory, on the other hand, is far more powerful.

This is the one where it's "Battlefield" but with an economy system, right? It seems cool, I hope they have a decent enough way to deal with cheaters, or else, it's doa anyways.

I have only just now realized that he smiles at the end (or maybe I have noticed it before but since forgotten about it, and then I always remember as I see the jif, perpetually in a loop).

Shit! I'm soon to go Linux and now there's one more thing for me ro figure out then. I have some stuff (not a lot, but some important stuff) on OneNote, lucky me that I made the switch to Obsidian a couple of years ago.

Why did Nintendo Switch emulator Ryujinx shut down and what are the alternatives?
The alternative to Ryujinx... Is Ryujinx itself. And soon something else. It has been forked, archived and mirrored. Someone will pick up the project, even if just out of spite against Nintendo.

New Steam Machine rival offers a Ryzen 9 CPU and RX 7600 XT for $849, but you have to bring your own RAM [aside of 16GB VRAM included already]
TL;DR: AOOSTAR's GODY mini PC offers a Ryzen 9 7940HX and RX 7600 XT GPU for $849, undercutting Valve's Steam Machine price, but it lacks RAM and storage, requiring users to add DDR5 memory and an SSD amid high DRAM prices. It runs Windows 11 and is larger than the Steam Machine.
Also no storage. So it's probably around the same price-to-benefit ratio of a steam machine: lacks the smaller footprint, tighter integration (including steam controller dock built in), no CEC (if you care about that); gains better upgradability, better gpu and cpu. Probably noisier as well, considering the higher tdp.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that 16 cores is pointless upgrade for pure gaming.
Instead of buying this, I'd just build a pc myself. This is the thing these steam machine killers are not getting: the gabe cube is not made for people who can build a pc on their own, it's made for the ones who want to have a pc-console that just works, no faffing about, no tinkering, no opening up and figuring out if the ram is seated properly or not. It's for those that want plug, sit and play.

Publishers are absolutely terrified "preserved video games would be used for recreational purposes," so the US copyright office has struck down a major effort for game preservation
They can dick about as much as they want, piracy will make sure to preserve the things they want gone. The reason they don't want older games to be preserved is that new generations, whilst playing them, may come to realize that you don't need gacha mechanics, stupid fomo, micro transactions, 6 different currencies, 3 different shop menus, 2 battlepasses and so forth to have a good game.

Startup claims its Zeus GPU is 10X faster than Nvidia's RTX 5090
Watch their announcement video on youtube, it screams VC funding scam. The whole announcement is basically just the CEO sitting on a couch and making outrageous claims, while all the supporting data and graphs carry the disclaimer "pre-silicon simulated benchmarks". They say they're going to have a live demo this month and in the following months, but they don't even have real silicon, while also claiming they're going to be shipping cards by Q4 2026.

The developer of Rogue Legacy has officially released its source code 'in the pursuit of sharing knowledge'
Baller move from the devs. I wish we lived in a world where the source code of older games were all released and freely available for non-commercial uses.
