Cliff Bleszinski: I made the Gears of War trilogy largely hungover

Cliff Bleszinski, the designer who led the creation of the Gears of War trilogy, has revealed a lifelong struggle with alcohol, admitting the games were largely developed while hungover. He says he is now reckoning with his difficult past and has hinted at a potential return to game development. Bleszinski was the public face of the Gears franchise through its first three entries.

Does Bleszinski's alcohol confession change how you view the Gears of War trilogy?

Emirates rejects 10 earliest Boeing 777X jets over costly upgrades

Emirates has decided not to accept the ten earliest Boeing 777X aircraft built for the airline. The main reason is the high cost of bringing the older jets up to current technical standards. Years of delays in the 777X programme form the broader backdrop to the decision.

Will Boeing manage to overcome the crisis surrounding the 777X programme?

HTX rotates crypto wallets to evade UK sanctions screening, TRM Labs says

Crypto exchange HTX is systematically rotating wallets to avoid detection by UK sanctions-screening systems, according to a TRM Labs report. UK authorities sanctioned HTX in May over its alleged role in helping Russia evade Western restrictions. The wallet-rotation method makes it harder for regulators to track transactions and enforce the sanctions.

Should crypto exchanges be subject to the same regulations as banks?

New iPhone to feature multiple batteries โ€“ hard evidence found

Hard evidence has emerged that the next iPhone will feature multiple separate batteries rather than a single cell. The multi-battery design is expected to improve energy management and extend the device's battery life. This would represent one of the most significant hardware changes in iPhone history.

Is a multi-battery design the iPhone upgrade users actually need?

Polish BB cream Neo Make Up delivers glass-skin glow with panthenol

Neo Make Up's Intense Serum Tinted BB Glow is a lightweight tinted cream enriched with niacinamide, aloe vera, panthenol, allantoin and vitamin E. It offers medium coverage that evens out skin tone and leaves a creamy, glowing finish without a heavy makeup look. The formula is closer to a skincare-hybrid tint than a traditional foundation.

Can BB creams fully replace traditional foundation?

Ferran Torres scored once at the World Cup and became Spain's cultural icon

Barcelona forward Ferran Torres scored just one goal at the World Cup, yet it was enough to make him a Spanish football legend. He is already being compared to Andrรฉs Iniesta on the Iberian Peninsula. On TikTok, a viral trend started by a content creator turned Torres into a genuine cultural phenomenon, especially among young female fans.

Does Ferran Torres deserve to be compared to Andrรฉs Iniesta?

Stephen Wolfram: the universe isn't random โ€” it's driven by computational evolution

Physicist and Wolfram Alpha creator Stephen Wolfram argues that the universe's complexity emerges from simple computational rules, much like biological complexity arises from evolution. He proposes that nature is neither random nor engineered, but governed by a principle he calls "computational irreducibility." The same rule that shapes living tissue and organisms is, he claims, a fundamental property of computation itself.

Polish food inspectors pull Carrefour ham over listeria-causing bacteria

Poland's Chief Sanitary Inspectorate (GIS) has ordered a batch of pork ham sold at Carrefour to be withdrawn from sale after tests detected bacteria capable of causing listeriosis. The supermarket chain has issued a public warning to customers. Listeriosis is a serious infectious disease that can be life-threatening, especially for vulnerable groups.

Should supermarkets face fines for selling contaminated food?

Single psilocybin dose reshapes brain activity and structure for up to a month

A new study found that a single dose of psilocybin produced measurable changes in brain activity and possible structural changes lasting up to one month. Participants who showed the greatest increase in flexible, varied brain activity also reported more personal insight and subsequent improvements in well-being. Researchers suggest the psychedelic experience may help break entrenched thought patterns.

Should psilocybin be approved for psychiatric treatment?

A lavender plantation in Szczawnica in the Pieniny mountains is the highest-altitude such farm in Poland. The blooming fields evoke the atmosphere of Provence, with a backdrop of the Pieniny peaks. The picturesque Maล‚opolska destination is recommended as a weekend trip.

Should Poland promote agritourism more as an alternative to foreign travel?

Abercrombie's First Law Trilogy: The Forgotten Fantasy Masterpiece Worth Reading

Joe Abercrombie's First Law trilogy is highlighted as an underrated fantasy masterpiece capable of hooking readers within just 10 pages. While the genre boasts celebrated titles like The Lord of the Rings and the Stormlight Archive, Abercrombie's series has been largely overlooked. It combines a dark tone, vivid characters and surprising plot twists.

Does the First Law trilogy deserve a place among fantasy's all-time greats?

1 in 4 US workers stay in unwanted jobs just to keep health insurance

A Gallup and West Health survey of more than 2,000 employed Americans found that nearly 24% stay in jobs they dislike solely to keep their health insurance โ€” up sharply from 16% in 2021. The phenomenon, called "job lock," limits career mobility and discourages entrepreneurship, according to economists.

Should the US decouple health insurance from employment?
