If a uranium reactor of this kind had now at last been produced in Chicago, after the American atomic project had got off to such a slow start, it must also have long since been constructed somewhere in Germany, the Allied nuclear physicists believed.

The scientific head of the Alsos mission explained the secret maintained about the place of internment:

All this hush-hush was necessitated by our original assumption that the Germans had the atom bomb or must be close to its secret. As it turned out, they knew practically nothing of significance. But by tracking them down and making such a thorough investigation we might have shown our hand. Actually, the German scientists were sure of their own superiority. It never occurred to them that we might have succeeded where they had failed. But our military security experts could not be sure of this. They could not be sure that if these men were set free the supposition that we might have a gigantic uranium project would become a matter of common knowledge everywhere. The risk was too great. The only thing to do was to segregate the men and keep their colleagues and the rest of the world guessing.

There was a bugged quest in the Emerald Dream that wouldn’t let undead players continue because one of the NPCs was super racist to them, and as an undead warlock main I find that hilarious.

That's absolutely fucking hilarious.

Style Tuning - Concept Car Chaos - Pt 1

I used the same style as the purple chaos on the concept cars. Go some really unexpected results. One of these doesn't really belong but I included it anyway.

Hey stop here and read for a second. Broccoli guy (Skylanders Academy), Elfo (Disenchantment), Mookey (Atomic Puppet), Throk (Race To The Edge), Cosmo (Fairy Odd Parents), Luis (Ant Man, also the voice they use for Carlos Peña often), Captain Man (Henry Danger), Tobias (TAWOG), IT, Ben Tennyson (Ben 10) and Kai Smith (Ninjago) all have the SAME goddamn voice actor

Like seriously man I knew Latin dub repeated a lot of actors, but this is like not even half of all his characters

I FUCKING love anime, as below, one of these characters is 17, another is 12, another 9 and another is 69 (nice). And your gut instinct is 100% wrong for which one is which.

In the second place Oppenheimer knew from personal experience – the degrading interviews forced upon him in 1943 – that the germ of atomic rivalry between the two great powers, the United States and the Soviet Union, then still allies, already existed.

Shortly after Goudsmit had discovered Weizsäcker's papers dealing with the German atomic project he went for a walk with a major who had been attached to the Alsos group in the capacity of liaison officer with the War Department.

Skor 2048 – jet atomic titans

Three dimensional stage for today based on videogame WipeOut for system PC MS DOS. It is futuristic racing game with bolides from future. Game appeared in a moment of transition from 486Dx2 to first Pentium. And it was with freeze with 486Dx2 machines. And you need certain Pentium. Game was with very strong three dimensional graphics. It has a cool music. It is something like second Need For Speed. But about fantastic three dimensional racing.

And this is my three dimensional scene based on. Class of racing bolides Skor 2048. A big strong engines. And jet speed. Its own racing tracks. Every racing format has a dreams about to have all of these.

Jet engines, it is possible with atomic engines. Or any kind of these direction. Almost any kind of constructions and a big speed. Bolides themselves are very huge. As a steam locomotive  from 19 century.  Powerful monsters on wheels. But here they are flying like avengers.  In 19 century steam locomotives were huge monsters steel beasts about size. And you can say it is modern analog of them, about power and size. And that’s why they ride along a monster size roads. About a wide. And they need a time to turn. Speed is big. That’s why roads are so huge. Titans roads. And a very long tracks. But they fly across for a few seconds. So, it is extremely above limits speed for planet Earth.

So, it is a certain time to start a space race with same bolides. And it is no doubt a next step. Next format for future racing. SkorKosm 2048 it will be already at the orbits of different planets. Earth and Mars at first, as a main event, as most developed space regions. Moon as a satellite of Earth. And Phobos and Deimos as a satellites of Mars. Future world – today! As a new processor, new engine, new level. New height. Earth-Space.

It is a pictures style of WipeEout (WipeOut in different regions it has a different titles). Speed and futuristic. Low poly models. And racing. I guess, it had electronic music. At least, I see it for my pictures. Of course, electronic music, dynamic. Something like remixes Eurodance from 90s. I think it will be allright. Turn on and lets race!
