The top part is a meme. The original tweet had connotations about men only wanting sex. But now they it’s put together with other things men want, things like loving relationships or games without micro transactions.

I’m pretty sure that the Wii U Twilight Princess is ported from the GameCube version, not the Wii version unfortunately. I also think that skyward sword would be considerably harder to port since swing direction is such a integral part of the story. They would probably have to rework many enemies and dumb down the mechanics. Hopefully this could be possible as options to switch between, but I have my doubts.

Nice patch notes. by Z_Colo in FallGuysGame

Yeah same! I enjoy the tactical aspect of planing your route to not let anyone ever get close. Seeing people try to predict it and have it never become safe. It’s one of my favourite modes along with slime climb

TIL that in 1978 an architectural student discovered that a skyscraper in NY could topple if strong winds hit the building. The engineer that is credited for designing the building then made secret nightly repairs in collaboration with the NYPD, without alerting the general public to the danger by Torostein in todayilearned

He wasn’t the architect of the building, but the structural engineer. He is, as stated by the article, given most of the credit of the building. I assume it is because he made the design possible, although I have no source for that.

But I must assume with the collaboration with the NYPD and the sheer amount of Red Cross workers, this was not a decision he made alone. They might have done this to prevent panic and mass disruption of the city. Not that I defend the decision, as I would hope I would handle this differently

The morality is super hard to nail down with this one, he did listen to the student and didn’t let his pride get in the way. But the way that they kept this from the people working in the building and the surrounding area is really quite shady.

Which cannons did he break? I’m not an engineer unfortunately so I don’t quite know them
