Harry Potter video games are known for their magical feel as well as for their distinct hit of nostalgia as players are taken back to when they first saw the movies or read the books. Fans find something wondrous in seeing Hogwarts and its grounds, Hagrid the groundskeeper, the students flying around on broomsticks, the great hall, the classrooms, the dungeons, and a myriad of other things that take fans back in their memories of the books and movies....

One fan, however, has taken things to the next level by getting Elden Ring to run on an old 13" CRT screen. Reddit user Griefreaper first purchased their old miniature CRT to play N64 and GameCube games on, but ended up plugging their Xbox Series X console into to see what FromSoftware’s latest and greatest might look like on it.

Back in Washington, U.S. officials who are quietly–and gingerly–making plans for postwar Iraq dismiss comparisons to the imperial MacArthur. The last thing they want to emulate in Iraq is the seven-year occupation of Japan. In fact, some officials at the Pentagon and State Department tell NEWSWEEK they hope to be able to withdraw U.S. troops in as little as 30 to 90 days after President Saddam Hussein’s ouster–if Iraq’s military can be swiftly purged of his henchmen and turned into a pro-Western security force....

Rex, real name Aaron Haddad, went one step further and dropped a major hint that he may be retiring from wrestling altogether. Rex’s Impact Wrestling tenure lasted just seven months. In case you didn’t know Aron Rex is best known for his six-year tenure in the WWE as Damien Sandow, where he was a heel by the numbers who grew into a cult figure. Sandow can lay claim to being one of the few people in history to get more over despite being saddled with impersonation and losing streak gimmicks, most notably his tag team run with The Miz when he was billed as Damien Mizdow....

“Senators, I’ve talked a lot about common sense in this trial because I think, I believe that’s all you need to arrive at the right answer,” lead impeachment manager Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said in his closing argument. He added, “Senators, America—we need to exercise our common sense about what happened. Let’s not get caught up in a lot of outlandish lawyers’ theories here. Exercise your common sense about what just took place in our country....

The Australian was edged in a play-off by Billy Horschel on Sunday, the result marking just his second top-10 finish of the year.

From the moment the young cornerback’s name bubbled to the surface amid the chaos of the trade news breaking Tuesday night, the conclusion was drawn that the Chiefs pulled the fastest of fast ones on their trade partners. People are doing hard time in the state pen for thefts this brazen. The Chiefs get more than an open lane for their heir-apparent at quarterback. They get more than cap relief....

Halep had been on a collision course with French Open champion Barty in the last four having been placed in the same half of the draw. However, Halep’s tournament came to an end on Wednesday as a back injury forced her retirement when trailing 5-4 in the first set to Rybakina, who will next face defending champion Aryna Sabalenka. Barty came through in relatively comfortable fashion against Sofia Kenin, but there was a shock in the other half of the draw as Dayana Yastremska knocked out Karolina Pliskova, who can now not claim top spot in the rankings at the end of the week....

“Investigations like these provide firsthand evidence of how people exploit the non-immigrant student visa system,” Vance Callender, special agent in charge of the Detroit office of ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) told the Detroit Free Press on December 6. About 250 students enrolled at the University of Farmington, a fake institution created by federal agents in 2015, have been arrested since January on charges of immigration and visa fraud, the Free Press reported....

This list features the cream of the crop when it comes to powerful anime teachers....

It was a bright start with both teams looking to get onto the front foot. The Burkinabe had a glorious chance to open the scoring but Prejuce Nakoulma scuffed his effort high and wide. They continued to grow in confidence and Bertrand Traore almost grabbed the opener. But the Chelsea Academy graduate’s shot could only skim the top of the crossbar. As the half time whistle approached it was the Lions of Carthage who took aim for the elusive goal but the ball went agonisingly wide off the far post....

[HTML1] Microsoft’s support of indie games on Xbox One has been a mixed bag at best. The company initially shocked and surprised fans and developers when they said that the Xbox One wouldn’t support self publishing and that indies would need publisher backing to make it onto the console. They also explained that Xbox One retail units could be used as dev kits before Microsoft then warned against it....

Crisis care standards, activated in Idaho this month amid a COVID-19 surge, are designed as guidelines to direct scarce resources, like ventilators, to the patients who are most likely to survive. Justice in Aging claims that Idaho’s crisis standards are ageist because it uses a patient’s age as a tiebreaker if two similar patients need the same resources. “Older adults are facing serious risk of discrimination, resulting in death,” because of Idaho’s crisis standards, Justice for Aging attorneys wrote in their complaint letter....

This wish almost certainly is going to remain unrequited, of course. The COVID-19 pandemic may be less off a threat by then, if we’re fortunate, but there is no voice of authority asserting that it will disappear.

That’s House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) talking about one of his fellow Congressional Republicans. He wasn’t speaking of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA), the freshman lawmaker who spread QAnon conspiracy theories, signaled support for executing Democrats, and openly flirted with launching a racist Congressional caucus to protect “Anglo-Saxon political traditions.” Nor was McCarthy referencing Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), the hard partying Congressman under investigation for alleged sex trafficking....
