Tonkin is the man police believe stabbed Rone — during a confrontation in which, police say, he repeatedly shouted the n-word at him. This occurred just after, a witness tells Rolling Stone, Tonkin bragged he could “knock a out.” Tonkin, 36, is now in jail. But the only charges prosecutors have brought against him are for “Peace Disturbance” — a misdemeanor with a maximum punishment of 6 months in jail and a…

It’s funny to think about how much has changed about Star Wars since EA released Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order in 2019. The action-adventure game would launch just weeks before The Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, a polarizing conclusion to its sequel trilogy that would create a disturbance in the force. In the years since, Disney has entirely changed its approach to the series by expanding the cinematic universe with a mixed bag of content, from the critically acclaimed Andor to more middling projects like The Book…

NASA has warned about the potential impacts of “swirling Sun debris" created by a solar storm likely to hit the Earth by December 11. The agency said a coronal mass ejection (CME) of plasma and magnetic field escaped the Sun earlier this week and is expected to possibly strike by Saturday. Astronomers and space scientists say the NASA warning suggests the recent filament eruption is likely to give a “glancing blow” to the south of Earth. There is likely to be a mild disturbance to radio and GPS services but the aurora, a…
