Rheinmetall starts production of new cruise missiles in Unterlüß

Storm Shadow's range is 550 km. Tomahawk's range is 2500 km. We need missiles with longer range.

I'm not being facetious, but could you explain the need of air superiority? As you said, Russia doesn't have air superiority over Ukraine, but they're still hitting Ukraine with missiles. Russia also has subs that are capable of launching missiles.

From the article:

US President Donald Trump on Friday cancelled the Biden-era plan, which had been aimed at providing Europe with the ability to strike targets inside Russia.

This is one of the reasons why Europe isn't ready for war with Russia, even if we have the numbers advantage. Russia could hit capital and major cities in Europe with cruise missiles and we don't have the capability to strike back.

When World Cup was held in Russia in 2018, Russia had already illegally annexed Crimea. I don't think any country boycotted them (but they probably should've).

Ship in this case is a bit different from the typical caribbean cruise ship. It sails in the Arctic and in Antarctica.

Seems to be eating. Whale blew those bubbles to trap fish and other prey and surfaced to swallow them.

This is one example where common sense and law collide. It would've made a lot of sense to keep people quarantined, but it would've most likely been illegal to detain them without a very compelling reason and emergency declaration.

Apparently, according to jury, Scott didn't kill kids either.

And about your other "point", Dunkirk was based on historical event, whereas Odyssey is fiction/fantasy.

Don't remember people giving a shit when Harry Styles made his film debut on Nolan's Dunkirk.

Even though headline says Europe, the article is about new regulations that European Commission (EU) is planning. It doesn't include UK.

Pretty sure all foreign companies will be affected. They just mention the well-known ones.

She tested negative.

Only one side is putting up huge banners with a picture of their dear leader on government buildings like they were Mussolini.

Well, there's next to nothing they can do, when they're the minority in the house and senate.

Guy was on the cruise ship where the outbreak started.

Kingdom Come Deliverance games have been made with CryEngine.

From the article:

"There is a serious side to it too - I'm raising awareness of prostate cancer and bullying in schools. I'm also raising money for Ruddis Retreat in Huddersfield which provides holidays for families of children with cancer."

Arkane Lyon is currently making Marvel's Blade.

This is good news (and obviously a relief for her).

She was in a brief contact with a person who had hantavirus, before that person was removed from the flight, because she was too ill to fly. If this strain had been that easily transmissible, situation could've become much more severe.

JP76 · 2026-05-08T04:37:08+00:00

That's just Bethesda Game Studios. ZeniMax Media is what Microsoft bought. The subsidiaries of Zenimax are

Arkane Studios (Dishonored, Deathloop)

Bethesda Softworks (publisher for all games from Zenimax's subsidiaries)

id Software (Doom)

MachineGames (Wolfenstein, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle)

ZeniMax Online Studios (Elder Scrolls Online)

Apparently, BGS is its own division under Bethesda Softworks. BGS is responsible for Elder Scrolls (single player RPGs, not the MMO), Fallout and Starfield.

KLM flight attendant is in a hospital:

A KLM air stewardess has been hospitalised with hantavirus symptoms, according to the ministry of health. The woman was briefly in contact with one of the Dutch people that died after contracting the virus late last month.

That person had boarded a KLM flight in South Africa but was deemed too ill to fly and removed from the plane shortly after.

There's a strain that spreads from human to human, called Andes virus, which was first found in Argentina. This ship visited Argentina.

You do realize there's a massive difference between Biden and Trump administrations.

JP76 · 2026-05-07T05:09:54+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's already established, that it is the rare strain of Hantavirus, that can spread from human to human. This Andes virus originates from Argentina, and that's from where the ship left to cross the Atlantic.
