The Food and Drug Administration is warning people to stay away from recreational nitrate products, commonly known as poppers. The drugs are intended to be inhaled, but according to the FDA, people are getting seriously hurt or even dying from ingesting poppers that look like energy-shot products.
Forty years ago this week, Star Wars ended. Well, it ended for a bit—as theatergoers sat down for the climactic battle in Return of the Jedi. Star Wars might have continued beyond it for many of those 40 years, but still, here’s 40 little things we love about the swansong of the original trilogy (in no particular…
A team of astronomers has proposed peering into the inconspicuous region between host stars and their soot lines to find habitable worlds beyond our solar system.
It’s once again time to watch skilled gamers rip through their favorite titles as quickly as possible in the name of a good cause. Summer Games Done Quick (SGDQ) is back with another week-long charity speedrun marathon. The event starts at 1PM ET on Sunday, May 28th and it will end in the early hours of June 4th. You’ll be able to watch all the action as it happens on the Games Done Quick (GDQ) Twitch channel, which is embedded below. If you miss a run you’re interested in, you’ll be able to catch up later on the GDQ YouTube channel.
The action kicks off with the debut of Sonic Frontiers at SGDQ and the event will wrap up with a co-op run of Super Metroid (here’s hoping the runners save the animals). There will be many, many runs in between, including half a dozen The Legend of Zelda titles. The heavy focus on Zelda probably shouldn’t come as a surprise given that Tears of the Kingdom has taken over the gaming world over the last few weeks.
You’ll be able to marvel at a runner beating Breath of the Wild in just a couple of hours while wearing a blindfold and another conquering Elden Ring as quickly as possible without using any glitches. I’m particularly looking forward to the Super Mario Maker 2 relay race. Those are always a blast at GDQ events. I’m also intrigued by runs of Ring Fit Adventure, Choo-Choo Charles,Hi-Fi Rush and one of my all-time favorite games, The Curse of Monkey Island. You can check out the full schedule on the GDQ website.
SGDQ will stream live from Minneapolis with an audience in attendance. GDQ events are so much better with a live crowd reacting to astonishing feats of video game prowess. Organizers will be hoping to raise millions more dollars for Doctors Without Borders after bringing in over $3 million during SGDQ 2022. They’ll be aiming to beat the record for a GDQ event, which was set during Awesome Games Done Quick 2022. Over $3.4 million was raised for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. You’ll be able to donate via the GDQ website.
