According to the player who won the Nintendo Switch, who goes by the name “DragonSlaayer” on Reddit, the Nintendo Switch required 100,000 tickets to purchase. He later claimed that he earned those tickets playing an arcade game named Floppy Tickets, a Flappy Bird clone.

Portnoy sold a majority of stock in his company to Penn National Gaming, an online sports gambling enterprise. The deal made Portnoy worth approximately $450 million. He put $3 million of that money into an E-Trade account and started Davey Day Trader Global (DDTG). However, Portnoy has complained about E-Trade’s consistent outages which Portnoy claims have caused him to lose “$50K a day,” later saying on his DDTG live stream “This is the most f*cked up thing I’ve ever been a part of....

It’s doubtful any tampering charges will result, but still, that’s a no-no. Maybe Stewart figures he’s OK on Navarro because Navarro wants out of Toronto after the Blue Jays signed Russell Martin to catch. The Jays are saying they can still give Navarro at-bats as DH, mostly to maintain some bit of trade value. (Side note: Navarro was a Diamondback for about 10 seconds back in 2005. The Yankees traded him to Arizona as part of the Randy Johnson deal, and the D-backs flipped him and three minor leaguers to the Dodgers for Shawn Green....

When Ayer’s Suicide Squad was released in 2016, it was met with a less than enthusiastic reception. The film was the third in the newly anointed DCEU and was released not long after another poorly received film, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which was criticized for its “cynical” and “dark” tone. Based on the marketing campaign alone, it seems like Warner Bros. got cold feet and desperately tried to “course correct,” hoping to avoid another big-budget flop....

Wonder Workshop’s Dash is the latest of these I’ve seen. Aimed at children aged 6-11, it’s a six-inch-tall stack of spheres that scoots around merrily on three wheel under each part of its body – with a head on top that can move independently. Both its head and body are covered with lights that you can control, and it can see, hear and speak in limited ways. There are many reasons why your children might benefit from adding ‘real-world’ component like Dash to their coding....

The cutscene in question was uploaded to YouTube by The Phoenix and is in the same ink-animated art style Bungie has used in place of in-game or pre-rendered cutscenes since the first raid team completed the Last Wish raid in 2018. As with previous seasons’ cutscenes, it goes into detail about a key character from the ongoing season and its importance to the ongoing narrative. One piece of information in the cutscene may go over some players’ heads on first viewing, but as mentioned, it confirms a particular character from Destiny 2’s deep lore served as a Disciple to The Witness, and players have already set foot on their Pyramid ship....

For a lot of college basketball coaches, a third possibility always has been the NBA, for one simple reason: No recruiting. We learned again Friday, however, that there are elements of NBA coaching that never really impact a college coach. You will never in your life see a college coach fired in the middle of a season in which he has won 73 percent of his games and is in first place in his conference, not unless that coach is guilty of some dreadful personal failings or ran afoul of the NCAA at a school that won’t tolerate it....

On Twitter, Jaffe told his 46,000 followers that the Bartlet Jones team had been prototyping an Iron Man VR game.
