I bought 4 "refurbished" game consoles from Temu so I can see what the condition is on the outside and then open them up for a thorough inspection of the inside. Hopefully we can see what is so "refurbished" about them. The four consoles are a Switch Lite, a PS5, a Switch OLED, and a Nintendo 64.
DC’s DEI police chief Pamela Smith has a complete meltdown while giving her resignation speech.
Smith was appointed in 2023 as the first Black woman to serve as chief of the D.C. police department. She took over when D.C. was experiencing a spike in violent crime, particularly homicides.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is remembered as a bright spark from 1992, and the title alone still stirs a bit of nostalgia. The idea of guiding Indy through lost ruins, strange clues and tight scrapes feels completely at home on the Spectrum, with its blocky charm and simple controls. Even in its most stripped back form, the premise carries plenty of that old Lucasfilm flavour, where puzzles sit at the heart of the adventure and every new location hints at something buried a little deeper.
What gives the game its staying power is the feeling of stepping into a pulpy treasure hunt that fits the Indiana Jones world so neatly. The Spectrum style invites you to fill in the details with your imagination, which somehow adds to the mood. You move from one scene to the next with that familiar sense of curiosity, never quite sure what Indy will uncover. It is a reminder of how little the hardware really mattered when the spirit of the story was strong enough to carry the player along.
Even now it stands as a snapshot of early nineties home computing, where licensed games had to rely on pacing, atmosphere and simple problem solving rather than spectacle. It is a modest piece of retro history, but it still captures the thrill of chasing legends across distant ruins with a battered hat and a bit of nerve.
This is the brutal Fairytale of New York parody that captures the mood of the nation in December 2025. While Whitehall enjoys the champagne and "free gear," the rest of the UK is living through a nightmare.
They can ignore the voters, but they can't silence the music. Listen to the track that exposes the hypocrisy of the Winter Fuel cuts, the Lord Alli scandal, and the reality on our streets.
