Today’s puzzle felt like something of a close call, as I didn’t really have enough to work with until m…

This project blew me away the moment I came across it, and the further I went down this rabbit hole, the more astounded I became. Floor796 is an ever-expanding animation scene that has been created by one guy… yup, just one guy. It shows the life of one floor on a huge space station and is absolutely packed with references from varied media forms (including videogames, which we will get …

If you want to know what I think of Tribes, I reviewed the last entry in the series (2012’s free-to-play Tribes: Ascend) for Eurogamer and it’s one of the few games I’ve ever given a 10. God that game was good, though, sadly, it didn’t quite stick the landing with enough players to survive: Ascend went into that good night in 2016, since when there’s been a large Tribes-shaped gap in my …

“For the first time in the world, we succeeded in synthesizing the room-temperature superconductor.” 

That’s the opening line of a paper submitted by researchers at the Quantum Energy Research Centre, Inc. and Korea University—a paper which could become a seriously big deal, if the findings are ratified. Thing is, the scientific community isn’t so sure they will be.

To my mind, the aesthetic of Games Workshop’s original tabletop wargame Warhammer Fantasy Battle can be summed best by a Monty Python quote. It’s the bit in Holy Grail where a commoner says he can tell Arthur must be a king because “he hasn’t got shit all over him.”
