The Bongcloud Attack (standard king's pawn advancement, then move the king up) is possibly the worst opening in #chess. In this tournament coverage video, it is used by one grandmaster against another. This was dubbed the "Bongcloud Countergambit: Hotbox Variation"

They canceled the Minneapolis LEGO Robotics tournament over general safety concerns. Not that the tournament was even targeted; it’s just so ICEy here.
The kids had made custom T-shirts for their teams and everything.
I know this is just one little thing, a footnote to what’s happening, but…fuck all the Nazis.

I remember trying to run a pirated copy of this game on one of my first Windows PCs with an ancient GPU and being both impressed and devastated it ran like a Powerpoint presentation. I removed it from my Steam wishlist just recently after waiting for years for it to get listed for sale again. And now it's free as a bird.
Running the Windows installer on a Linux rig felt so redeeming 🙂 ->

WM 2026: FIFA setzt offiziell auf TikTok. Highlights, Creator-Zugänge, begrenzte Livestreams – aber keine echten TV-Rechte. MediaPost: Das ist Fan-Bindung per Algorithmus. Die WM wird kürzer, vertikaler, fragmentierter.

The FIFA tournament may create some new American fans, but at what cost?
Exorbitant ticket prices have cut out the game’s grassroots.
Onerous demands on cities have siphoned public money.
Fifa has boosted an openly corrupt administration at every turn.
Now wanton federal violence has made it difficult to justify having the World Cup here at all.
Safety, justice, freedom, the continued functioning of society
– these are all under threat.

I want every team competing in a tournament to get at least one win, especially weak teams. In that spirit, I wish Namibia, Oman, and Canada win their respective last games in #T20WorldCup #Cricket. 🏏
My #wish has nothing to do with #Pakistan and #Australia teams. 🤫

Former Fifa president Sepp Blatter on Monday suggested he supports fans boycotting World Cup matches in the United States this year due to security concerns.
Blatter gave his support to comments from Swiss anti-corruption lawyer Mark Pieth, who worked with Fifa on potential reforms when Blatter was president, saying fans should stay away from the US for the tournament.
“I think Mark Pieth is right to question this World Cup,” Blatter said on social media.
