Everyone loves a movie collab these days, and with Marvel being big in not just its own video game shooter and pretty tight with one of the other biggest shooters on the planet, it’s not too surprising that we’re going to be seeing a battle of the collabs this Friday as both Marvel Rivals and Fortnite prepare to welcome the MCU Fantastic Four. Rivals, of course, has had the First Family around for a little longer, having introduced Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben over the course of its first season

Two hours into my gaming preview of Dying Light: The Beast, I was jogging through a beautiful woodland dotted with cabins and park benches -- a spot that would make for a lovely vacation, if not for the hordes of zombies wandering all over. Despite stealthily creeping around, I was spotted by a large group and frantically fended them off with a shovel, growing more desperate and overwhelmed -- until my rage meter maxed out and I became a beast. I roared and tore the zombies limb from limb until

Microplastics used to sound like a distant environmental issue, but they're showing up in more places than you'd expect, including the food we eat every day. According to new research, even something as simple as chewing gum could be exposing you to tiny plastic particles. With something as common as chewing gum becoming a delivery system for microplastics, many people are concerned about how often they're consuming the potential hidden hazard. The average person takes in between 39,000 and 52,

Log by Time, not by Count July 20, 2025 "How to Log" is a surprisingly deep topic in software engineering with many different viewpoints, and they're almost all valid in different situations. I'm going to argue that when processing lots of events, it's best to log every X seconds, rather than every X messages. This is a simple concept, but I've never seen it written down before. Let's quickly look at some pseudocode to understand what I mean. Count-based logging num_events_processed = 0 whi

Astronomers have spotted a planetary system being conceived from the swirl of gas and dust surrounding a star — giving us an unprecedented, real-time look at how our solar system would've formed some 4.6 billion years ago. The findings, published as a study in the journal Nature, are the first time we're seeing such an early stage of planets being formed anywhere in the cosmos.

Ordering wine at a restaurant shouldn't be a stressful occasion, but there is plenty of language and ritual associated with wine that can feel foreign to the casual drinker. One such practice is the obligatory tasting after the bottle is opened and before it's poured for you and your guests. Despite what you -- and many others -- might think, this is not really to determine if you like the wine, but rather, to ensure the wine is not spoiled or "corked."
