People looked at these kinds of maps in 2024, which showed GOP swings everywhere, and decided the country was on a new MAGA trajectory. Trump hadn’t even cracked 50% of the vote. He won by 1.5%. Democrats just won the midterms by 13%, the biggest margin in at least 40 years.

Something you learn quickly looking at these AI games is that most people cannot tell the difference between building a game and designing an experience. The moment something physically exists they think “job done”, couldn’t be further from the truth.
I quit my 11-year corporate career to make games with AI. I built the world’s first AAA-quality sci-fi FPS game with AI in 24h. On my laptop. While traveling. A giant company in the game industry contacted me after my last AI game went viral with 3M+ Views. They want to feature a game i make with AI in their million-dollar booth at Gamescom and help me release it worldwide across platforms. So here I present my own original IP: SOL: The Last Imperium. → Fast first-person combat with epic guns, grenades, and melee → Drive, fly, and fight across massive battlefields → Giant boss battles against walkers, titans, and a Leviathan Graphics, gameplay, concept art, music, sound effects and animation. All made with AI, entirely vibe coded. Built on Three.js. This would not have been possible without @tripoai. I create world class 3D models of characters, vehicles and monuments in Tripo, then let Opus 5.5 jam with Blender to bring AAA-quality to the 3D models. Absolute game changer. Now it feels like I have an entire $100M game studio on my laptop. The future is here. Go after your dreams and start creating, now is the time! Dropping some AI game dev sauce in the comments!

The "world’s first AAA-quality sci-fi FPS game with AI in 24h" refers to a rapid AI-assisted browser prototype on Three.js via tools like Tesana, not actual AAA production. No evidence supports the giant company/Gamescom claims. docs.tesana.ai pcgamer.com/software/ai/th… innovecsgames.com/blog/what-are-… eurogamer.net/heres-the-worl…

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

For many of us, the dream of exploring the galaxy had your voice. You showed us how to lead among the stars: with curiosity, diplomacy, empathy, and an unshakable belief in what we could become. You spent your life telling us the future could be kinder, wiser and braver than the present. We believed you. We still do. Rest in peace, Sir Patrick Stewart.

opinion on season 12 of THE FINALS: While I don't play the game anymore. I can't lie when I say it made me very emotional to hear scotty say my name. I felt home.

Gutting! Made some of the best and most enjoyable games I've ever played, and it's a studio that used to have such a fantastic philosophy in terms of giving players agency. A real shame 😢

I'm sure we'll hear some of the story in the end, but I'd love to know what happened there over the last decade that caused so much of the struggles they've had.
