As soon as the trolley’s forward wheels pass the switch lever you throw the switch so that the rear wheels go on the other track. Since the wheel trucks can’t swivel 90 degrees, the trolley derails gracefully, saving all lives.

From Iraq to Afghanistan to the US, basic freedoms for women are being eroded as governments start rolling back existing laws.

Just a few months ago a ban on Afghan women speaking in public was the latest measure introduced by the Taliban, who took back control of the country in 2021. From August the ban included singing, reading aloud, reciting poetry and even laughing outside their homes.

The Taliban’s ministry for the propagation of virtue and the prevention of vice, which implements one of the most radical interpretations of Islamic law, enforces these rules. They are part of a broader set of “vice and virtue” laws that severely restrict women’s rights and freedoms. Women are even banned from reading the Quran out loud to other women in public.

In the past three years in Afghanistan, the Taliban has taken away many basic rights from women who live there, so that there’s very little that they are allowed to do.

Retro publisher Limited Run Games is bringing back BattleTanx and its sequel, BattleTanx: Global Assault, to the Nintendo 64 console. Originally released in the USA, these games are known for their over-the-top action and destruction which captured a cult following when they hit shelves.

  • Games Set to be Rereleased: Both versions of BattleTanx will see pre-orders starting on November 22nd until December 22nd with an expected release date in August 2025. The sequels and original modes, including deathmatches and capture the flag, will also be supported.

  • Preserved Features: As part of Limited Run Games' signature style, the games retain support for the Rumble Pak and Memory Pak, ensuring an authentic N64 experience.


Do you remember playing BattleTanx? What do you think about its return to the market?

Hey there, as to not further splinter the very small soulslike community we have on Lemmy, I want to offer a joint community for the discussion of soulslikes in general: !soulslike@lemmy.zip

The community is very fresh and is yet to be populated with posts by me, so don't be alarmed if you don't see all too much activity right off the bat.

I'm not sure if I'll keep posting here too much despite some activity already existing as to not further divide people. Alternatively, I might cross-post for some time for people who are not interested in an all-purpose soulslike community.

Please do come on over and say hi, create a post, comment - all that good stuff. Maybe we'll get something bigger going together!
