Rautalahti stressed the value of digital preservation, although he sees fans and institutions like the Internet Archive as being more probable saviors than developers. “It really would be worthwhile to have some kind of effort to preserve these things. It might not seem that valuable right now, but as someone who works on this, it would be nice to know that games aren’t just lost in the ether. I’d like to think they’re also culturally significant, not an individual game necessarily, but as part of a whole. In 50 years I’m sure you could see a lot about how online…

The Mandalorian Season 3 won’t premiere for another nine months or so — Disney confirmed at last week’s Star Wars Celebration that the show will return for new episodes on Disney+ next February — but work has already begun on the fourth season. Hopefully that means we won’t have to wait for over two years for new episodes again.Speaking with Cinema Blend at Star Wars Celebration, Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau revealed that he is mapping out his plans for The Mandalorian Season 4 right now. His exact quote:With television, we’re very lucky that we don’t have to rush things through into an hour-and-a-half, two hours. We…
If you’re seeking a way to walk while you work, the best walking treadmills can slot just as easily into your life as they can under your desk. These machines are slightly different from the best treadmills (opens in new tab); they tend to be smaller and can often be folded up and put away. You don’t have to be carving out endless hours in a desk job to fall short of your 10,000 steps a day (opens in new tab). In fact, many of us live sedentary lifestyles without even realizing it, and the more sustained periods of physical inactivity…

Long before Atlanta-based new American metal pioneers Mastodon started writing multifaceted songs intertwined with fetching harmonies and concept album narratives, they were a volcanic, scream-heavy band with one foot in thrash and the other in proggy sludge. The band’s first full-length, Remission, which came out May 28, 2002, offered hints of how Mastodon would develop over time. Guitarist Brent Hinds layered notey fills over dense, shifting rhythms that were somehow contained by the maniacal Neil Peart-inspired drumming of Brann Dailor.Mastodon started working on songs for Remission after they formed in 2000, but none of the cuts appeared on their first…

Credit: Sandra Standbridge/Shutterstock Alongside the worrying current fad for plastic grass, a growing number of people are choosing to let their lawns grow wild in order to encourage a more diverse range of plants and insects to live in them. You may not be convinced of the beauty of a wild and unruly garden, but there is a sweet spot to be found between a rewilded jungle and a sterile green desert which not only looks good but provides a haven for wildlife. This is especially important in the U.K., where 97% of semi-natural grassland has been destroyed over the…
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Filthy Rich Vampire? I’ve always been a sucker (no pun intended) for vampires. A few years back I started dreaming up a steamy, decadent world of magic and forbidden romance. Recently I was enjoying some regency romance and thought ‘I bet vampires’ still have balls, social seasons, and arranged marriages. It was the final piece of the puzzle for my vampire world: a vampire heir trying to avoid marriage. If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Filthy Rich Vampire, what would they be? Human…

I am a spring/summer girl through and through. It’s that magical time when we get to rip off the restrictive opaque tights that have been glued to our legs for the last six months and finally get to wear our favourite lightweight dresses that have been collecting dust in our wardrobes through what felt like a never-ending winter. Most dresses will work with a pair of tights, but it’s always my favourites (usually lighter boho dresses or more vibrant pieces) that just don’t sit well.From barbecues to weddings, there always seems to be buzz and excitement for the months ahead and, of course, more than enough reasons to showcase some…

When Top Gun: Maverick became a runaway hit in movie theaters last weekend, it wasn’t just the best opening for a Tom Cruise film in history, more than doubling his previous personal best. Maverick’s $156 million over the four-day weekend also became the biggest opening ever for a Memorial Day release, topping the previous mark set in 2007 by Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.But that’s still not all. Those numbers also give Cruise another impressive (and kind of shocking) achievement. With Top Gun: Maverick, Cruise has had a number one movie at the U.S. box office in five consecutive decades starting in the 1980s, and continuing through…
Replacing faulty genes with healthy ones has enabled several children with rare genetic disorders to have typical life experiences, such as attending school and living with their families Health 27 May 2022 By Alice Klein A stock image of a person holding a child’s hand in hospitalShutterstock / Pammy Studio Children with some rare genetic conditions who would have once died at just a few years old could now have typical life expectancies due to gene-replacement therapy. “We’re curing kids of fatal diseases.

Despite being a lifelong book lover, I’ve only recently began to develop a solid reading routine. I always intended to be the kind of person who reads for an hour before bed, but it never seemed to work out that way. It turned out there were two things holding me back: an unrealistic expectation of how much time I had to put aside for reading before bed and not having a bedside lamp. The best reading lamps make reading in bed comfortable and easy — much more relaxing than having to roll our of bed to turn the light switch…

As a confessed Francophile, I’m always looking for new ways to bestow my own looks with some Gallic charm. On the cusp of spring, I was particularly interested in finding out which spring shoes French girls are most likely to wear. It’s a tricky time to make footwear decisions—one minute it’s raining, and the next it’s glorious blue skies, so I’m always looking for inspiration and guidance when selecting shoes between seasons.In the name of research, I scrolled through dozens of profiles belonging to fashionable French influencers, and after looking at the imagery I amassed during this deep dive, I…

Astronomers will have to wait a while to celebrate the first complete orbit of Pluto since its discovery.Pluto was discovered on Feb. 18, 1930, using the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona. American astronomer Clyde Tombaugh found a moving object clearly beyond the orbit of Neptune. That object was later called Pluto, the ruler of the Greek underworld in that culture’s mythology.There’s a long-running debate about whether Pluto is a planet or a dwarf planet. Concerning its orbit, however, astronomers don’t disagree that the world has yet to complete a single orbit since Tombaugh first spotted Pluto in imagery.It takes Pluto…

Dr. Bashir “Bash” Hamed (Hamza Haq) needs some help to figure out a way to help his newest patients, especially since one of the things he could really use — lab results — isn’t an option in TV Insider’s exclusive sneak peek from the June 4 episode of Transplant. (The medical drama has moved to a new time slot, Saturdays at 8/7c, on NBC.) “Anyone have time for a differential?” Bash asks as Dr. Theo Hunter (Jim Watson) walks into the lounge. The other man is out, needing to shower since “the rental guys demolished the kitchen in my new…
In a proof-of-concept study, researchers have created self-assembled, protein-based circuits that can perform simple logic functions. The work demonstrates that it is possible to create stable digital circuits that take advantage of an electron’s properties at quantum scales. One of the stumbling blocks in creating molecular circuits is that as the circuit size decreases the circuits become unreliable. This is because the electrons needed to create current behave like waves, not particles, at the quantum scale. For example, on a circuit with two wires that are one nanometer apart, the electron can “tunnel” between the two wires and effectively be…
Although it’s completely true that there’s nothing we love more than a full-blown Jennifer Lopez look (we’re talking about her iconic Versace jungle dress and, more recently, her bridal minidress by Giambattista Valli), it would be wrong for us to discount the Hustlers star’s more laid-back outfits. After all, whether it be a sundress or joggers, J.Lo really can make anything look good. Her latest one is no exception. While out and about in L.A., Lopez was spotted wearing the easygoing denim look that French girls have been donning for decades. Specifically, she combined a basic white T-shirt with high-rise, wide-leg jeans à la Jane Birkin back in the 1970s. Keeping…
