The computing conference Computex 2025 is showcasing the future of PCs in Taipei this week with massive announcements from Nvidia, AMD and more.
Intel is among them, and one of the ******* reveals from Team Blue this week was live demos of the upcoming Panther Lake Core Ultra 300 CPUs for laptops.
Our colleagues at Tom’s Hardware got to put some eyeballs on the Panther Lake-powered systems while at Computex, and their Intel demos sound promising.
According to them, Intel showcased real-time tests of a Panther Lake CPU as it rendered or powered AI applications. They showed that the “silicon is healthy and on-track for retail availability in early 2026.”
The processors were using Cougar Cove P-cores (performance cores) and Darkmont E-cores (efficiency cores) which are being built on Intel’s 18A node process, which should deliver better performance than earlier editions.
The new laptop CPUs were described as blend of Intel’s power-efficient Lunar Lake chips and the Arrow Lake-H performance CPUs. That sounds like it could be good news for future handheld gaming PCs like the MSI Claw 8 AI+, though we expect to see Panther Lake primarily in laptops.
Intel has also previously teased a “next-gen built-in iGPU” which could also be a major performance booster, but it has not elaborated on that teaser at Computex so far.
Intel has faced severe challenges in the last couple of years, so Panther Lake needs to be a quality chip to right the boat for the struggling chip maker. Especially as companies like AMD are impressing with its Ryzen Z2 Extreme processors, which we saw in a MSI Claw A8 at Computex.
That said, right now Intel has the advantage in battery life efficiency with its Lunar Lake chips and it appears that Panther Lake is on track to keep that lead while providing better performance.

A man in Norway woke up to find a huge container ship had run aground and crashed into his front garden.
The 135m-ship (443ft) missed Johan Helberg’s house by metres at about 05:00 local time (03:00 GMT) on Thursday.
Mr Helberg was only alerted to the commotion by his panicked neighbour who had watched the ship as it headed straight for shore, in Byneset, near Trondheim.

Xiaomi XRING O1 Die Shot Reveals Details of 10-Core CPU, 6-Core NPU and More
Xiaomi XRING O1 Die Shot Reveals Details of 10-Core CPU, 6-Core NPU and More
Xiaomi unveiled the XRING O1 on Thursday as its first in-house chipset for the Xiaomi 15S Pro, and details of the chipset have now surfaced online. It is a 3nm chip that is built using Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s (TSMC) advanced N3E process technology, which was also used by Apple, MediaTek and Qualcomm for their own 3nm processors. The XRING O1 will be avalable on smartphones in China, and it features a 10-core CPU, a 6-core NPU, and a 16-core GPU.
XRING O1 Features 10-Core CPU and 6-Core NPU
A die shot of the new XRING O1 posted by user Kurnal (@Kurnalsalts) on X (formerly Twitter) gives us a closer look at the new chipset from Xiaomi (via Notebookcheck). According to the user, the new Xiaomi XRING O1 has a die area of 114.7 sq mm (10.8×10.6mm) and the components take up 109.5 sq mm of space.

As a result, Xiaomi’s 3nm SoC is as small as rival flagship chipsets, which are also built using TSMC’s N3E process technology. The die shot also reveals the layout of various components, including the CPU, GPU, and NPU cores on the new chip.
The new XRING O1 chip from Xiaomi is equipped with a 10-core CPU that comprises two Arm Cortex-X925 cores (3.9GHz), six Cortex-A725 cores (up to 3.4GHz), and two Cortex-A520 (1.8GHz) cores. It has a 16-core Arm Immortalis-G925 MP16 GPU and a 6-core NPU. The CPU and NPU are both equipped with a 16MB cache.
The die show also reveals that the XRING O1 will offer support for LPDDR5T RAM at 9,600Mbps. It also features a sensor hub and an unidentified encryption core. The chip doesn’t reveal the presence of a modem, which means that the Xiaomi 15S Pro will be equipped with another modem.
According to recent benchmark results for the XRING O1 suggested that the chip could offer performance that is on par with the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite from Qualcomm. It remains to be seen whether Xiaomi incorporates the XRING O1 chip on more smartphone models in the future.

Perth Glory and Socceroos striker Adam Taggart reflects on former coach Ange Postecoglou’s success
Perth Glory and Socceroos striker Adam Taggart reflects on former coach Ange Postecoglou’s success
Perth Glory captain Adam Taggart says his former Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou’s unwavering belief in his methods and players is what sets the triumphant Tottenham manager apart.
It comes as Tottenham captain Son Heung-min called for the Spurs boss to keep his job in the wake of his breakthrough Europa League title.
The plaudits are still piling up for Postecoglou after he overcame a raft of injuries and horrid English Premier League form to steer Tottenham to a first trophy in 17 years and a first European title since 1984.
Taggart, who was part of Postecoglou’s 2014 Socceroos World Cup squad and featured in their final two group games off the bench, said he was thrilled to see his former boss break Spurs’ barren run.
“He obviously had a lot of doubters, but I think all of us who have seen him close up always had the full belief that he was going to do it,” he said.
“We all sort of had that almost guaranteed feeling, just knowing the way that he is, that he’d get the job done.”
Much was made of Postecoglou’s now famous statement he always wins silverware in his second season at a club.

“He’s got ****** of steel. To say that and then go and do it, it’s an unbelievable thing that he’s done, and the belief that he has in himself and what he’s doing is so strong,” Taggart said.
“But there’s obviously clear backing behind that, because it works, he’s seen it work and he knows 100 per cent that it will keep working.
“He was the perfect man to obviously guide them into their first trophy in a long time and you’re only going to be able to do that with that kind of belief and attitude.
The striker, currently in camp with the Socceroos in Abu Dhabi ahead of their crucial world Cup qualifier against Japan in Perth, said the belief Postecoglou was able to instill in his players was irrepressible.
Taggart was just 21 years-old when he played at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and said Postecoglou’s high standards and specific tactical requests stood out, even at an early age.
“It was very clear about your responsibilities and roles and what you needed to contribute to the team but as a young player, it was an invaluable experience to have that time with him,” he said.
“I wish it could have been longer, and I wish it could have got to work with someone like Ange for a lot longer and a lot more throughout my career.
“His standards are obviously very high, but there’s a specific way that he likes to do things, and it makes it easier for players in terms of what you need to do, because there’s no doubt; it’s about executing it and because you’re doing it consistently, the execution becomes easier and easier, and it starts to flow more.”

Following Spurs’ Europa League win, Korean superstar Son threw his support behind Postecoglou to stay in the job despite poor domestic form which has left Tottenham in 17th in the EPL.
“He won the trophy. Nobody (else) did it,” he said.
“Look, it’s not up to me or the players, but we just have to look at the facts, at the fact we haven’t won in 17 years and this is the day we finally won it. It’s the manager who wins the trophy, so we see what’s going to happen.”

Russia’s sanctioned tanker group Sovcomflot plunges to $393 million loss
Russia’s sanctioned tanker group Sovcomflot plunges to $393 million loss
(Reuters) -Russia’s leading tanker group Sovcomflot plunged to a net loss of $393 million in the first quarter, blaming the slump on new Western sanctions that have led to operational problems, lower revenues and some sanctioned vessels sitting idle.
The United States and the European Union imposed sanctions on Sovcomflot and its fleet in 2024 to try and reduce Russia’s revenue from oil sales that it can use to finance its war in Ukraine.
In January, the United States added new Sovcomflot vessels to the list of sanctioned assets and withdrew a U.S. licence, granted last year, that had allowed some vessels in its fleet to operate despite sanctions.
Sovcomflot, which reported a 49% year-on-year drop in first-quarter revenue to $278.5 million, said the January sanctions had been particularly impactful, creating additional commercial and operational difficulties.
“The intensification of Western sanctions has made it more difficult to operate the fleet and led to lower revenues and downtime for some sanctioned vessels,” Sovcomflot said in a statement.
“In the reporting *******, unprecedented sanctions restrictions were imposed on the company and its vessels, which created additional commercial and operational difficulties in operating the fleet,” Sovcomflot said.
The group’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) fell almost 69% year-on-year to $105 million. Sovcomflot considers the sanctions to be ********.

Wisconsin fire causes major damage to apartment building and boutique; fundraiser launched to aid recovery
Wisconsin fire causes major damage to apartment building and boutique; fundraiser launched to aid recovery
MENOMONIE, Wis. (WFRV) – A large fire that broke out Tuesday night in Wisconsin required an extensive response and has left residents and business owners facing a costly recovery.
Firefighters were dispatched to the 700 block of 3rd Street after reports of smoke coming from a building associated with apartments above 244 Main Street.
Fire causes $60,000 in damages to Appleton duplex, two families impacted
When crews arrived, they found smoke seeping through cracks in the bricks and along the building’s foundation.
Firefighters entered with a hose line and encountered dense smoke, zero visibility, and extreme heat in the basement.
A thermal imaging camera revealed a deep-seated fire that had likely been burning for an extended *******.
Conditions quickly worsened, forcing firefighters to evacuate the basement and leave their hose line behind.
With all occupants safely out, crews shifted to a defensive strategy. Fires in this type of structure present added challenges, including the risk of flames spreading through shared walls to neighboring buildings.
Mutual aid was requested from nearby departments, and heavy equipment from CR Bryan & Sons was brought in.
Firefighters worked through the night, pouring hundreds of thousands of gallons of water into the building. An excavator was used to gain access and help contain the fire to 244 Main Street.
Despite the efforts, smoke and water traveled through a common wall, causing significant damage to the adjacent Mood Boutique.
Firefighters remained on the scene until 10:30 a.m. Wednesday to monitor and extinguish hot spots. The cause of the fire remains under investigation but is believed to be electrical.
The American Red Cross provided assistance to those affected and supported fire crews with food and water during the operation.
Omro Alderman charged for receiving/distributing child ************, faces up to 20 years in prison
To help ease the financial burden facing residents and businesses, the city of Menomonie has launched a relief fund.
Donations can be made through GoFundMe, with all proceeds directed to support those impacted by the fire.

Market Fade Begins With Technicals Hinting at Deeper Retest Ahead
Market Fade Begins With Technicals Hinting at Deeper Retest Ahead
It was going to happen at some point, but markets have started to ease back after an extensive rally. We have seen an increase in bullish (and a drop in bearish) Investor sentiment as the rally extended beyond its 200-week MA, to the point it’s again at an inflection point, but perhaps an inflection point that the next leg down will confirm a major swing low.
In the near term we have the first of many buying opportunities. For the () we have a test of the 20-day MA off the back of yesterday’s distribution day. A bounce here would lead to a challenge of 200-day MAs, assisted by net bullish technicals.
The will soon be testing the convergence of 20-day and 200-day MAs in a scenario that should offer a bounce play opportunity. As with the Russell 2000, technicals are net positive.
The is doing well to hang on to its gains, having not suffered the losses of the Russell 2000 and S&P 500.
While I would look for positive support tests of Russell 2000 and S&P 500, it might end up been the that does the lead out and challenge 20,000 for a second time.
As we head into Friday, we need to consider as to what degree of losses we can expect from this early fade. Investor sentiment suggests we won’t see a successful support test in S&P 500 or Russell 2000, and likely further losses in the Nasdaq. But even if such losses do occur, they are likely part of the last leg down before a major swing low gets put in place. It’s an investors market.

Thousands of chicks adopted after abandoned in truck
Thousands of chicks adopted after abandoned in truck
Thousands of chicks found abandoned inside a US postal truck for three days have gone to new homes, according to the Delaware shelter that had cared for them.
All the surviving birds, estimated as more than 5000 chickens – it was too hard to get a specific count – plus some others such as turkeys and quails, were primarily adopted by local families, rescues and farms, according to First State Animal Center and SPCA.
The chicks were part of a 12,000-bird shipment left unattended in a truck at a Delaware mail distribution centre.
Trapped in high temperatures without food or hydration, thousands died, according to the state Department of Agriculture.
The US Postal Service says it is investigating the “process breakdown” that occurred.
For more than two weeks, the surviving birds had been cared for at an overwhelmed First State Animal Center and SPCA, said John Parana, executive director.
As a no-kill operation, the shelter would not take adopters planning to use the birds for meat, Parana said.
Some of the adopters took hundreds at a time, hoping for egg-laying hens, while others took them as pets.
Stephanie Bruzdzinski adopted a handful of chicks after her daughter learned about their situation.
“She was very upset and wanted to help out,” said Bruzdzinski, who was similarly shocked when she heard the news.
“She doesn’t like when things aren’t getting taken care of.”
The birds originated from Pennsylvania-based Freedom Ranger Hatchery’s weekly bird shipment to clients around the country, and due to biosecurity concerns, the hatchery could not take the chicks back, the company said.

Did Toyota Just Reveal Its Most Versatile Adventure Vehicle Ever?
Did Toyota Just Reveal Its Most Versatile Adventure Vehicle Ever?
Toyota’s 2026 RAV4 is all new and better than ever. However, one version, in particular, raises the compact SUV’s versatility to new heights.
The 2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland Edition shown against an illustration mountain range background
Every product is carefully selected by our editors. If you buy from a link, we may earn a commission. Learn more
Toyota’s finally unveiled the sixth generation of America’s best-selling compact SUV—the 2026 RAV4.
Based purely on press materials, the redesign hits all the right notes, though Toyota’s choice to go all-in on hybrid powertrains, just as it did with the Camry back in 2024, will no doubt irk ICE purists.
The vehicle’s new, squared-off body styling looks decidedly better and more aligned with the boxier styling for Toyota’s robust lineup of trucks and full-sized SUVs. However, the RAV4 will technically come in so-called Core, Rugged, and Sport varieties, each with unique design cues.
Toyota’s all-new 2026 RAV4 lineup consists of Core, Rugged, and Sport varieties, all of which feel like continuations of the car’s wildly successful compact SUV formula. But the sole rugged offering known more formally as the 2026 RAV4 Woodland looks like a particularly compelling entry for the American market in particular. – Credit: Toyota
The hybrid powertrain is now available in AWD and more affordable front-wheel-drive configurations. And the 2026 RAV4’s baseline HEV offers more combined net horsepower than ever before.
And while Toyota’s decision to introduce an all-new GR SPORT edition of the RAV4 may win more headlines for its novelty, the updated Woodland grade of the 2026 Toyota RAV4 feels like a much ******* deal for the SUV-obsessed American market.
In fact, at least on paper, it looks like one of, if not the most versatile vehicles across Toyota’s entire lineup.
Finally Looking the Part
The sixth generation RAV4 is noticeably more boxy than the outgoing fifth generation. The Woodland trim version also includes a 1.25-inch rear “activity mount,” essentially a trail hitch port designed to accommodate rear racks rather than actual towing. – Credit: Toyota
The 2026 Toyota RAV4 Woodland grade is the sole option to feature Toyota’s so-called “rugged” design, which is more than just a badge and a set of knobbier stock tires, though those are here too.
Instead, Toyota imbued the exterior with several exclusive details, including a slightly raised “hammerhead” front end, covered by a ****** split upper and grille extending lower on the face, and an integrated Rigid Industries LED light bar.

It also gains an extra half inch of ground clearance thanks to standard All-Terrain tires.
A roof rack with raised crossbars is also standard, alongside a 1.25-inch rear “activity mount,” essentially a trail hitch port designed to accommodate rear racks rather than actual towing.
A Drivetrain for Cities and Trails
The Woodland trim is available only in AWD configurations, though buyers can pick between a standard HEV or PHEV powertrains. – Credit: Toyota
The Woodland trim is available only in AWD configurations, though buyers can pick between a standard HEV or PHEV powertrains.
Though Toyota worked to increase the power of all AWD HEV configurations of the 2026 RAV4 to 236 net horsepower up from last year’s 219, the PHEV version of the Woodland trim is the more notable powertrain configuration.
The Ultimate PHEV?
The PHEV version of the 2026 RAV4 Woodland offers an impressive amount of net horsepower and an electric-only driving range compared to options from Hyundai, Kia, and even luxury brands like Mercedes. – Credit: Toyota
All PHEV versions of the new RAV4 feature a new plug-in-hybrid system that combines a 2.5-L 4-cylinder engine with dual electric motors and a battery to produce 320 net horsepower, which is damn impressive for the compact SUV category.
For comparison’s sake, the 2025 Kia Sportage PHEV offers 261, while the 2025 Ford Escape PHEV drops to 210 net horsepower. Even the xbeloved Mercedes GLC350e maxes out at 313 net HP.
More importantly, the 2026 PHEV Toyota RAV4 offers an estimated 50 miles of electric-only driving range, up from the previous generation’s already respectable 42 miles.
“More importantly, the 2026 PHEV Toyota RAV4 offers an estimated 50 miles of electric-only driving range, up from the previous generation’s already respectable 42 miles. “
That puts the 2026 RAV4 PHEV near the top of the list of plug-in hybrids with the longest electric-only ranges. In fact, that figure is only 3 to 4 miles less than best-in-class luxury options from Mercedes and Land Rover.

To top it all off, the Woodland trim is the only 2026 RAV4 PHEV option outside of the XSE trimmed version to feature a CCS port for DC fast charging, which many PHEVs on the market currently lack.
This means the Woodland’s battery can be topped off from 10 to 80 percent in roughly 30 minutes.

New Tech and Interior
The 2026 RAV4’s biggest wildcard element is its all-new software development platform. – Credit: Toyota
The 2026 RAV4’s biggest wildcard element is its all-new software development platform. Toyota says the system will be the foundation for its “most advanced safety, security, and connectivity technologies.”
More practically speaking, it also powers the newest version of the Toyota Audio Multimedia system which again will offer standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as the ability to simultaneously connect two phones via Bluetooth.
Notably, though, Toyota has added a new home button that will appear regardless of the UI system the driver is using.
The native voice assistant is also said to be faster, and native map and nav functions can now appear in the digital gauge cluster and the screen.
‘The new Woodland trim edition of the 2026 RAV4, configured with a PHEV powertrain, takes the vehicle’s Swiss-Army-like capabilities to new heights.”
All of this sounds great on paper, but as with any major new software launch, there’s always a risk that early bugs could hamper the user experience early on.
Toyota also states that the new software development platform will enable the RAV4 to be the first to receive Toyota Safety Sense 4.0. However, the company hasn’t shared details yet about what the upgraded system will offer.
Speaking of limited details, we don’t have any other specific info on how the Woodland trim’s interior will differ from other versions of the 2026 RAV4, though one press photo does showcase some brighter orange trim elements on the steering wheel and center console, alongside red seat stitching.
A Winning Woodland LineBetween the upcoming bZ Woodland EV announced just last week and now the 2026 RAV4 Woodland edition, Toyota finally seems laser-focused on providing greener vehicles optimized for adventurous pursuits off the beaten path. – Credit: Toyota
Between the upcoming bZ Woodland EV announced just last week and now the 2026 RAV4 Woodland edition, Toyota finally seems laser-focused on addressing a glaring hole in the affordable compact SUV and crossover landscape.
While the ICE-powered side of the market remains the most cutthroat and competitive vehicle class in America, anyone looking for greener, fully or partially electrified solutions has only had a handful of options optimized for adventurous pursuits off the beaten path.
Toyota’s RAV4 has always been a capable jack of all trades equipped with a compelling combo of space, fuel efficiency, and standard safety and convenience features.

However, the new Woodland trim edition of the 2026 RAV4, configured with a PHEV powertrain, takes the vehicle’s Swiss-Army-like capabilities to new heights.
Like all RAV4s, it offers a reasonably spacious interior for four passengers and cargo, with the added boon of a new and improved body style.
The Woodland trim also adds dirt-road-friendly details like decent ground clearance, all-terrain tires, additional LED lighting, and gear racks.
But it’s also notably more powerful than competing PHEVs in its price range and offers enough EV-only mileage to handle a fairly active day of driving while supporting fast charging.
In short, it’s a vehicle that sits essentially in a class by itself, at least for now.
Pricing and Availability
Much of the 2026 RAV4 Woodland’s value proposition naturally hinges on its price.
And unfortunately as of right now, Toyota hasn’t revealed MSRPs for any model in the new 2026 RAV4 family, though the company has shared that the vehicle will go on ***** later this year.
Based on history, we’d guess that the PHEV version of the Woodland will be priced slightly north of $45,000. Whether most consumers can easily buy the vehicle at MSRP, though, feels like a ******* unknown.
Demand for many iterations of the RAV4 traditionally remains through the roof, and as such, many dealers have implemented steep markups in response to market conditions.

Winning $15 million lottery scratcher sold in California
Winning $15 million lottery scratcher sold in California
A lucky lottery player in Southern California has claimed the first-ever top prize of a scratcher lottery ticket that celebrates the game’s 40th anniversary, California Lottery officials said Wednesday.
The ticket, worth approximately $15 million, was sold in February to Israel Martin Rodriguez at the 7-Eleven on the corner of Oxnard Street and Woodman Avenue in Van Nuys, according to a news release from the California Lottery.
While Rodriguez won the grand prize, the 7-Eleven store that sold the winning ticket also received a $75,000 bonus.
According to the California Lottery, not long after Rodriguez celebrated his win, another top prize for the same scratcher game was sold. The lottery said it will be releasing the name of the winner and the location that sold that ticket soon.
The game originally featured five grand prize scratchers, the California Lottery said, meaning there are three remaining grand prizes remaining in the game. The game also has prizes of $100,000, $40,000 and $10,000, with lower prize amounts also available.
The California Lottery released its 40th anniversary-themed scratcher game, called “40 Years of Play!,” on January 20. The lottery says the game was created to “honor 2025 as the 40th year since voters created the California Lottery” and boasts prizes from $40 to $15 million. Overall odds of winning are less than 1 in 3.
Lottery news: A man bought lottery tickets ‘on a whim.’ He ran down the street when he won $5.46 million.

Next, Instrumental Wonders (June 7th–11th) adds a rhythmic twist with electric and metallic Pokémon like Golett, Tadbulb, and Ferroseed making appearances. You’ll find Falinks and Beldum in the wild or in raids, and the shiny odds for Ferroseed and Falinks are getting a boost.

Finally, Phantom Ruins arrives June 14th–18th, pulling you into a mysterious lineup of shadowy and ancient Pokémon.

RedBird Capital-led group agrees to buy ***’s Telegraph
RedBird Capital-led group agrees to buy ***’s Telegraph
A trans-Atlantic consortium led by RedBird Capital Partners has struck a deal to buy Britain’s Telegraph newspaper, the title says, spending Stg500 million ($A1 billion) to secure control.
The ownership of the right-leaning broadsheet has been in flux after the Abu Dhabi-backed RedBird IMI bought the Telegraph titles and the Spectator magazine in 2023, before Britain’s then government moved to ban foreign state investment in British newspapers, forcing it to sell.
The Telegraph said on Friday the US private equity firm RedBird Capital, which provided a quarter of RedBird IMI’s funding, was moving to take direct control and was expected to be joined in the ownership group by British media investors.
The ownership of the Telegraph, one of Britain’s best known newspapers which strongly backed the country’s vote to leave the European Union, has raised questions about the independence of the media and foreign states buying political influence.
Britain’s previous Conservative government in 2024 banned foreign state investment in British newspapers, blocking RedBird IMI, run by former CNN boss Jeff Zucker and with the majority of its funding from Abu Dhabi, from owning the Telegraph.
However, the Labour government said earlier in May that it proposed to allow foreign state-owned investors to own up to 15 per cent of British newspaper publishers.
The Telegraph said no final agreements were in place and regulatory hurdles would loom.
“We believe the *** is a great place to invest, and this acquisition is an important part of RedBird’s growing portfolio of media and entertainment companies in the ***,” Gerry Cardinale, the founder of the US private equity firm, was quoted by the newspaper as saying.

Supremacy: Warhammer 40,000 is an upcoming entry to the acclaimed grand strategy franchise, pre-registrations now open
Supremacy: Warhammer 40k was revealed during the Warhammer Skulls Festival
It is set in Vigilus, featuring many popular factions
Take part in 30 and 64-player battles that may last weeks
The grim darkness of the far future is calling, and this time, it’s not just a skirmish; it’s a total war. Supremacy: Warhammer 40,000, unveiled during the Warhammer Skulls Festival, marks the next chapter in Twin Harbour Interactive’s acclaimed grand strategy franchise. Designed for mobile and PC, this new entry brings the high-stakes warfare of Supremacy into the heart of the 41st Millennium.
Set on the strategically vital world of Vigilus, Supremacy: Warhammer 40,000 lets you command legendary factions straight from the Warhammer 40k tabletop and lore. Space Marines, Chaos Space Marines, Astra Militarum, and Orks will be available at launch, each bringing their own combat doctrines, production chains, and territorial ambitions.
Expect a slow burn as this isn’t a quick match or daily login grind. Supremacy’s signature real-time format unfolds across sprawling 30- or 64-player maps where wars last days, even weeks. You’ll be managing your economy, negotiating with rivals, massing armies, and launching coordinated strikes to dominate entire regions.
Naturally, strategic depth is the core. Controlling everything from logistics to supply lines, production timing, and diplomacy is crucial to win. Victory isn’t about a single battle. It’s about sustained dominance over a persistent battlefield.
While you wait, check out this list of the best strategy games to play on iOS!
Every decision ripples across Vigilus, a world steeped in Warhammer 40,000 history and a key to the Nachmund Gauntlet. Control of the planet means influence in the wider Imperium Nihilus, and your actions contribute to a living narrative shaped by factional struggle and player choices. It’s a sandbox of warfare, where faction identity and emergent alliances breathe life into the frontlines.
Supremacy: Warhammer 40,000 is currently open for pre-registration, with a release set for later this year. If you’re interested, sign up in advance by clicking on your preferred link below. Visit the official website for more information.

Mass. High School Senior Was Driving at 110 MPH Ahead of Spring Break ****** that Killed 3: Report
Mass. High School Senior Was Driving at 110 MPH Ahead of Spring Break ****** that Killed 3: Report
A report from the Florida Highway Patrol revealed that a high school student was driving at around 110 mph when he crashed into a tractor-trailer in Walton County, Florida
The ******, which occurred on April 21, left three students from Concord-Carlisle High School in Massachusetts dead and another in a critical condition
“This car was just going so fast,” a witness to the tragic accident said, adding, “It shouldn’t have happened”
A report from the Florida Highway Patrol is shedding additional light on the tragic ****** that left three Massachusetts high school students dead and another in critical condition while they were on a spring break trip to Florida.
On April 21, around 9:30 p.m., Jimmy McIntosh, 18, and Hannah Wasserman, 17, of Concord-Carlisle High School were pronounced dead after a car McIntosh was driving hit a tractor-trailer driving on U.S. Highway 98 in Walton County.
Maisey O’Donnell, 18, another passenger in the car and a fellow student at Concord-Carlisle, subsequently died in the hospital. A fourth passenger, who remains unnamed, was left in critical condition.
Citing the ****** report, the Boston Globe reported that McIntosh was driving at speeds of around 110 MPH on the highway, which has a speed limit of 65 MPH.

James “Jimmy” Pehl McIntosh
McIntosh’s car struck the tractor-trailer as it was attempting to execute a U-turn. It was reportedly moving at speeds of around 20 MPH and was driven by 19-year-old Kadyn DeWayne Ainsworth. He and his passenger survived the accident without injury.
After the collision, the car, a Hyundai SUV, went across the highway before coming to rest “in the wood line on the south side of the highway,” per an earlier report from Florida Highway Patrol cited by the outlet.

The Globe noted that McIntosh’s car lost its roof in the accident, citing the new ****** report.
Per the report, Ainsworth underwent drug and alcohol testing; however, the results were not reported. Officials on the scene noted that they did not believe he was under the influence. McIntosh did not undergo similar testing.
Lieutenant Jim Beauford, chief of public affairs for Florida Highway Patrol, shared a statement with the Globe, noting that this was being treated as a criminal investigation. He told the outlet that no charges would be made until the conclusion of the investigation.
“We understand the public‘s desire for a fast resolution to these criminal investigations; however, it is more important that we conduct the best investigation possible for the people that are involved,” he said in an email.

Dr. Gary Howerton, who was on the highway at the time of the ****** and tried to render aid to those involved, told the Globe that McIntosh’s car “blew by me like I was standing still.”
At the time, he estimated that he was moving at speeds of about 72 MPH.
“My first impression was, ‘Oh no.’ Something bad is going to happen because of the way he was driving,” he said, noting that he heard the collision.
He told the outlet that the truck appeared to have time to complete the U-turn, saying, “This car was just going so fast.”

“It shouldn’t have happened,” he said.
O’Donnell, a state diving champion bound for Williams College, was described as being “humble with a kind heart” by her coach Joe Chirico.
“The little kids looked up to her; the other divers looked up to her. It’s a tragedy that somebody at the top of their game, going to the best academic school, one of the best divers in the nation, was cut so short,” he told ABC affiliate WCVB.
Her boyfriend Warren Hansel paid tribute to her on Instagram: “There are so many things I love about you and so many things I’m going to miss,” he wrote, adding, “You are not just the love of my life but my best friend.”
PEOPLE reached out to the Florida Highway Patrol but had not heard back at the time of publication. The Concord-Carlisle School District had no comment.

The Finals’ Heavy Hitters mode finally gives this underrated class time to shine
The Finals’ Heavy Hitters mode finally gives this underrated class time to shine
Profchaos32d ago
Not exactly on Xbox one you have to cater for the lowest common denominator and that’s the 2013 VCR model which actually has a slightly worse CPU than the s revision that came later.
It’s arguably the weakest console of that generation and there was a few architecture choices that really held the base Xbox back including dedicating large amounts of ram to the systems os vs how streamlined the PS4 was setup with shared memory and the Xbox using a 32mb esram that complicated development and the biggest elephant in the room the PS4 features a flat out better GPU than the Xbox one.
It’s why most performance comparisons would show a higher resolution and more consistent performance on PS4 than X one the only exception being when the Devs targeted a lower resolution and gained more consistent fps on the xone.
Launch titles show this quite strongly with most games being 1080p on PS4 while they were 900p on xone the divide only worsened as the generation went on.
