In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.

Last year's Pixel Fold was a valiant first attempt at a foldable phone by Google, but it wasn't perfect. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold and the OnePlus Open, the Pixel Fold was shorter and wider, which made it a more comfortable phone-to-tablet experience. That said, it was also...

Lionsgate, Gearbox, and Eli Roth’s Borderlands film hit theaters this last weekend, and the result has been disastrous. On top of scathing criticisms leading to one of the worst ratings of all time for a film, Borderlands only earned back a fraction of what it cost to make. While the production budget alone was around $115 million, Borderlands only reached $16.5 at the box office in its opening weekend.

Hunt: Showdown 1896 is an intense extraction shooter and while there can be a lot of waiting in-game, it’s not a lot of fun to be waiting outside of the game for server maintenance. For those that are trying to get in, it might not always be clear if the Hunt: Showdown 1896 servers are down for maintenance or if there’s something else going on. However, the team at Crytek is usually pretty good at communicating this information.

During the events of QuakeCon 2024, Hugo Martin and Marty Stratton took the stage to talk about all sorts of new stuff in the Doom franchise. That inevitably included new info on Doom: The Dark Ages, but it wasn’t something you’ll see on the internet anytime soon. Much like when the deep dive for Doom 2016 was shown at QuakeCon, the Doom leads asked the community to put down their phones and simply take in the brutal mayhem of what’s coming. And while I can’t show you what I saw, I can tell you that it was ridiculously cool and continues to build the hype for what we’re getting when Dark Ages comes out in 2025.
