Pathogenic: a virus’s chaotic, upgrade-filled romp

Pathogenic is a $10 roguelite twin-stick shooter where you play as a virus invading a host body from skin to heart, with boss fights and a deep, modular upgrade system that rewards experimentation. The game delivers fast, bullet-hell combat, strong visuals and sound, and rich unlocks, plus sturdy Steam Deck performance; it’s not on consoles and can be punishing for roguelite newcomers, but it shines for fans of Isaac-like synergies and Spore-inspired customization.

Discovery merger, driven by non-personnel efficiencies like renegotiated vendor contracts, consolidated tech, and streamlined distribution. He noted potential streaming gains from unifying HBO Max and Paramount+, emphasized protecting talent while cutting overlapping administrative functions and real estate costs, and set a completion target for Q3 2026 with incentives tied to timely closure.

Netflix Forecasts $6B in Job Cuts If Paramount Bids for WBD

Netflix’s Clete Williams warned on Fox Business that a Paramount Skydance bid for Warner Bros. Discovery would create asset duplication (‘Noah’s Ark problem’) and amount to about $6 billion in job cuts as synergies are pursued; the company argues savings would come from licensing and other efficiencies rather than layoffs, even as the WB deal faces regulatory review.
