Bullets Found After the Charlie Kirk Shooting Carried Messages. The inscriptions on bullets recovered near the scene of Charlie Kirk's murder appear to reference video games like and online furry role-play, not a legible political ideology. On Friday, Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah native, was identified by federal law enforcement as a suspect in the murder of Charlie Kirk . During Friday's press conference, officials said that several bullet casings recovered from a hunting rifle found near the crime scene had messages inscribed on them. During the press conference, officials appeared to take the inscriptions literally, to the extent they ascribed meaning to them at all.

It is widely agreed that 2023 was a stellar year for video games. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Baldur's Gate 3, Alan Wake 2, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 … barely a week passed without some blockbuster hit or independent gem. But beneath these accolades there is a sadder, more worrying story: it was also a year of widespread industry redundancies, and the trend is continuing into the opening weeks of 2024. Microsoft laid off 1,900 Activision Blizzard staff after its 69bn purchase of the company. Publisher Embracer Group let at least 900 staff go across its many studios, as well as closing veteran UK developer Free Radical Design. Epic Games, the creator of Fortnite, one of the most successful titles of the decade, laid off 830 employees; Electronic Arts shed 6% of its workforce, amounting to approximately 780 jobs.
