Welcome to this week's news without the bullshit.
Let's get started.
The US president has declared a national emergency this week, which has granted him access to
reallocate roughly 8 billion dollars, to build a wall on the Mexican border.
The money has been tapped from multiple sources, including military construction projects and
counternarcotic programs.
At the same time, scientists predict that the earth's ecosystem will collapse completely
within 100 years, a Russian town is invaded by polar bears, and a famous drug lord is
surprisingly found guilty.
Moving on, the mars opportunity rover has been declared dead this week, spending nearly
15 years on the red planet.
The rover malfunction is attributed with a dust storm that blocked sunlight from recharging
its batteries.
Opportunity was only expected to last 92 days, and has broken the record for the longest
distance driven on another planet, at over 45 kilometres.
From the efforts of Opportunity, scientists have been able to confirm that there had once
been bodies of water on the surface of the planet.
A study from Oxford researchers have shown no evidence of increased aggression among
teenagers who play violent video games.
The notion that games increase aggression has been the topic of morning shows and mothers
groups for decades, and even the current US president has expressed concern for the medium
as a whole.
One of the co-authors suggests that researcher bias may have influenced previous studies
on the topic.
The team stated that methods to prevent cherry picking should be used in other areas of technology
research that are prone to moral panic . Although the study could not find an increase in violent
behaviour, it did cite an increase in trash talking, trolling and competitiveness while
engaged in violent games.
Which by all accounts, is a pretty fair statement.
In Kangaroo land, the biggest cargo ship in the nation's history is too small, and teenage
degenerates are participating in the new rebellious trend of vaccinating themselves.
Meanwhile, the US national debt has reached 22 trillion, Ikea knows that New Zealand is
imaginary, and a black leopard has been documented in Africa for the first time since before
world war one.
In technology, Amazon makes tax a difficult and obscure concept to understand, an apple
lawyer who was hired to prevent insider trading, has been charged with insider trading, Netflix
is keeping track of viewer decisions made in interactive media, and internet service
providers are being dodgy.
Google has also decided to continue to allow ad blockers until further notice, after it
was recently announced they would disable them entirely on the chrome browser.
In entertainment, Dave chapelle wins a grammy, a fresh prince actor fails to sue fortnite
over a dance, and Disney's Aladdin trailer makes will smith look more out of place, than
a grown man flossing in front of a crowd of adults.
Moving on, Ben Affleck has decided not to reprise his role as batman in any upcoming
films, citing that he couldn't make the character work.
This comes after rumours that superman actor henry Cavil would not be a returning part
of the DC universe, and that his attention would be focused on other projects such as
the upcoming TV adaption of the Witcher.
In other news, an inmate uses his unique skill set to rescue a child from a locked car, and
French people participate in their national past time.
