For many Americans, the nation’s 250th anniversary will center on July 4, 2026, and the signing of the Declaration of Independence. In Yorktown, Virginia, local officials are asking visitors to look further down the road, to the battlefield where independence was secured years later. Yorktown’s VA250 and America250 programming is being built around a longer Revolutionary War timeline, one that begins with the ideals of 1776 but continues through the military campaign that led to the British surrender at Yorktown in 1781. The town’s commemorations are expected to continue beyond the national July Fourth anniversary and toward 2031, the 250th…

California has some of the worst gun laws in the nation, but that doesn’t mean that they’re popular in every part of the state. Outside of the more populous coastal counties, there are lots of locales where the right to keep and bear arms is seen as the fundamental right that it is, and even in the “may issue” days many places, like Fresno County, treated the concealed carry licensing process as “shall issue.”  Now Fresno County is looking to expand who can carry; specifically, which city employees should be able to bear arms when they’re…

The Fallout games have been set around various locales of the United States, but Fallout 3 in particular…

Two rights I care deeply about are gun rights and property rights. These have been ingrained in me for quite some time, but property rights were the first I came to care about. Learning about eminent domain in school sort of radicalized me to believe that a person’s property should be sacrosanct. Gun rights came later for me, but were no less important. For Salon, though, it seems that all they care about is how little they understand either.I mean, that’s the only take I can have when they, like so many others, have a…

Virginia Del. Dan Helmer routinely brags about his role in pushing the state’s new gun and magazine ban through the General Assembly, but there’s a really good chance that a year from now, the only thing Helmer really accomplished was ensuring that tens of thousands of Virginians ended up purchasing the guns he was trying to ban.  In addition to the half-dozen lawsuits that have already been filed in state and federal court over the ban, the Justice Department announced today that it’s bringing suit against Virginia over the law that was authored by Helmer…

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge.  If you’re wondering why the Nasdaq is suddenly tumbling this morning, wonder no more… Nasdaq moves lower after Meta announces it is to build a cloud business to sell its excess AI compute, weighing on cloud peers like AMZN, ORCL, MSFT and chip and memory names like NVDA, MU, INTO. As Bloomberg reports: Meta, which has been rushing to secure expensive data centers and other infrastructure to fuel its own artificial intelligence ambitions, is forming a business to generate revenue from excess computing power sold to outside customers, according to people…

There’s an idea that exists in the mind of most anti-gunners, and that’s the fact that they’re not really anti-gun. They’re anti-you having a gun. They’re fine with guns in the hands of the police, even if they also want to defund the police and banish them into historical obscurity. Yes, the cognitive dissonance would be painful if they recognized that the two ideas are contradictory. As a result, though, they routinely exempt police from the laws they create for ordinary people.It also seems that the good people at CMMG aren’t amused by this.At this…

The Soulslike genre has evolved significantly since its creation over a decade ago, but one thing that has always been closely associated with it is difficulty. Bosses that take hours to take down, brutal enemies that unleash an array of attacks around every corner, and a world that is more out to get the player than even the enemies in it — these are all staples. There is no margin for error, and the challenge can often feel a bit unfair. Thankfully, there are still plenty of Soulslikes that capture the satisfying gameplay and expert worldbuilding without forcing the player…
