Long shot, but was 2019's "LEGO One Piece: The Video Game" real?

There are a few wiki's that discuss it, but there are zero used copies and lists of One Piece video games do not mention it.

One of three wiki's is at https://onepiecefanon.fandom.com/wiki/LEGO_One_Piece:_The_Video_Game

The developer's website does not list it: https://www.ttgames.com/games

One list of One Piece video games is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_One_Piece_video_games

It appears this game was entirely made up. Does anyone know differently?

I cannot be the only one with old hardware... The feet on an old HP desktop melted. I now need to remove the residue from a wood shelf, a metal case, and a cotton t-shirt.

Any tips?

Also, check the feet of your oldest systems. Apparently they melt.

System sat on a shelf for about 10 years (running) and the feet melted. I need to remove the residue from a wood shelf, a cotton shirt, and the metal case. A putty knife and paper towels have been helpful, but there is still residue.

A report estimated the cost to stop using oil and natural gas for the USA in 2019 to be $4.5 Trillion and that this is similar to what we USA paid for the "War on Terror".

The 2003 Iraq War cost 1.4 Trillion directly and maybe 2.4 Trillion in finance charges.

Note: I am not saying these wars were necessarily due to oil, but they may have gone differently.

I wonder how much USA oil wars have cost compared to moving to solar, wind, and battery?

2:49 p.m. Feb. 8 | Kidney recipient detained by ICE still hasn't received life-saving medications

Four days after ICE arrested a Rochester man who is the recipient of a kidney transplant, federal authorities still have not given him the life-saving medications he needs to prevent his body from rejecting the donated kidney, according to the man’s wife.

The Department of Homeland Security said late Friday that ICE is aware of the man’s recent kidney transplant, that the family gave authorities the medications and that ICE was working to ensure he gets them, but he apparently still has not received them.

Javier Abreu-Vasquez was arrested by immigration agents in Rochester on Friday while he was delivering groceries as part of a local mutual aid group through his church. He was taken without his medications to the Whipple Federal Building near the MSP airport, where he was held until being flown to a federal detention center in Texas Friday.

State Rep. Kim Hicks, DFL-Rochester, said a lawyer for Abreu-Vasquez was told Friday morning that he would need a doctor’s note to be able to access the anti-rejection medication vital to his transplant survival.

Hicks drove to the Twin Cities Thursday night to deliver the medication to Abreu-Vasquez at the Whipple building. After conferring with his attorney Friday morning, she got a letter from his doctor at Mayo Clinic, where the 38-year-old had kidney transplant surgery in July of 2023.

Hicks and Abreu-Vasquez’s family grew quite concerned though, because they hadn’t heard from federal officials as of Friday afternoon — after Abreu-Vasquez was scheduled to be transported by plane to a federal detention center in Texas.

By late Friday afternoon, the Department of Homeland Security put out a statement regarding Abreu-Vasquez’s situation.

“ICE is aware of his recent kidney transplant, and his family sent the medications and medical documentation. ICE is working with the family to ensure he gets all of his needed medications,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

“It is a longstanding practice to provide comprehensive medical care from the moment an alien enters ICE custody,” McLaughlin’s statement continued. “This is the best healthcare many aliens have received in their entire lives.”

Abreu-Vasquez’s wife, Carolina Rosario De Abreu, told MPR News Sunday that she talked to him by phone, and he told her he still has not received his medications. She says he needs to take his pills daily to prevent his body from rejecting the donated kidney, and that going without them could be life-threatening.

Hicks said community members alerted her Thursday that Abreu-Vasquez had been detained after federal agents rammed into his car and broke his car window on Civic Center Drive in Rochester. She said he had been delivering groceries for a mutual aid network through his church when he was detained.

In the statement, McLaughlin described Abreu-Vasquez as “an illegal alien” from the Dominican Republic.

Hicks, though, said the man has an alien registration number, which people often receive after applying for a green card, receiving a work permit or taking part in immigration court.

“I don't understand why the federal government is taking Minnesotans who are not criminals, who are part of our communities, and violently ripping them off the streets after running into their cars, and then denying them access to life saving medication,” an exasperated Hicks said Friday morning.

“For what purpose? What is the end goal here?” she said. “This is not the worst of the worst.”

Minnesota's four Republican members of Congress are supporting new legislation designed to force the state's election officials to turn over private voter data to the Trump administration, withholding federal funding if it doesn't.

Rep. Pete Stauber introduced the Minnesota Voter Integrity Act of 2026 in the U.S. House on Monday, with Reps. Tom Emmer, Brad Finstad, and Michelle Fischbach as co-sponsors.

Minnesota DHS has a website devoted to debunking DHS claims.

This page exists to correct the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) repeated false claims regarding the Minnesota Department of Corrections' (DOC) cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Please see the below media fact sheet, press releases, and videos for more information.

MINNEAPOLIS — Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said the city is asking a federal judge to immediately grant a temporary restraining order to help halt the federal government’s current immigration operation on Monday. The request came after federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old man Saturday in south Minneapolis.

President Trump is best taken in his own words.

President Trump's letter in full (quotes are from the source, and likely not in the original):

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.

“Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a ‘right of ownership’ anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also.

“I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”

Edit: I take it that my sarcasm is not landing.

How are you preparing for Friday's general strike? (January 23, 2026)

I want to ensure I am not forcing someone else to work.

I am arranging PTO, shifting hours earlier in the week, and getting errands done by Thursday. Also, asking people how they are getting ready to remind people it is happening.
