Viðtalið við Brynhildi Jenný sem Penninn gerði í tilefni nýju bókarinnar.

The interview with Brynhildur Jenný that the store Penninn did on the launch of her new book (which I published). I attempted to add English soft-subtitles, but I don't know if it took.

84 Years Later: FDR’s Pearl Harbor Stand-Down EXPOSED

infowars.com/posts/84-years-la…

On the 84th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack, this 2023 report by Brian Wilson breaks down how Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s administration provoked Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor in order to bring the United States into World War II. This report is based on the work in Robert B. Stinnett’s acclaimed book, “Day of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor.”

84 years ago on December 7, 1941, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor changed the world. Now, new technology is revealing hidden traces of that attack, on the land and underwater. What will be discovered?

Comments below the video:

as yet. To be seen in its raw state was most awe inspiring. May they all rest in peace."

"One thing that's not a mystery is why the Japanese succeeded. The powerful US Navy was asleep during a time when many war plans were in place and everyone in high level command knew that we would fight a war with Japan. Also the battleship-dominated command structure of the Navy didn't conceive of an attack from the air."

The "Manhattan Contrarian" looks at big city welfare fraud

manhattancontrarian.com/blog/2…

Describing the lack of MDM outlet coverage of the MN fraud situation for over three years (indictments started in 2022).

Plus other examples like Los Angeles and teacher unions.

My housemate's new housemates are confused. I won't use their preferred pronouns, but I'll help them fix cars and other stuff.

So I'm a bad person because I'm not "respecting their reality", but I helped one of them avoid getting fired, so I'm a good person? But that can't be right because of the pronouns. Even though I helped build some shelves because I had the right tools.

President Trump released his National Security Strategy this past weekend.

It includes a description of the national way forward, both in terms of foreign and domestic policy. The table of contents included an entry for each world region: including Asia, South America, the Middle East,Europe, & so on.

It’s about 30 pages long. It’s easy-to-read, well-organized, uses lay English.

I think as I gamedev, I'm probably most similar to Chris Sawyer. Granted, I don't make the type of games he's known for, but I compare his stubborn insistence on writing his games almost entirely in Assembly, even when that practice was obsolete to my insistence on writing my games in C++ and SDL when even the triple AAA studios are using pre-built engines like Unity and Unreal. Also, he specialized in isometric games which I have a soft-spot for.

It's such a shame that he stopped making games after Locomotion (the mobile ports of RTC don't count). Though him being a private person kept him out of drama and controversy unlike most other gamedevs. Seriously, he is probably the least polarizing gamedev because of his privacy.

A few years ago, I would've said John Carmack, but he was focused on making his games as cutting-edge as possible while I'm perfectly content with just making simple engines. Plus, I'm not a fan of his post-game endeavors. His work on Oculus obviously helped the creation of the Metaverse, and I don't think his AI startup is going to go anywhere and might even end up worse than his failed space start-up.
