That may be the main reason why people use or even create emulators, but there are still legitimate uses for emulators. It's like banning couples from riding the same motorcycle because two people on a bike is usually a robbery.

My mother in law has no problem with M/M but complains about lesbians (says it's disgusting) - I then assumed homophobes are bothered more about gays of their own gender in general.

Hard to believe this is true. Not the "feature" itself (that's very believable), but the claim that this was exposed as okta configs - that just doesn't make much sense. Not impossible, but very unlikely.

We've had enough of artificial intelligence so they're switching to artificial stupidity?

From my own experience with hardware and real life in general, I imagine they probably had some equipment who they already knew was not working 100% and it was the only one to detect such missiles. I can't imagine any other reason why they wouldn't report it without risk of being labeled a traitor afterwards.

I think they're just talking about the game being open world in a full planet that you can clearly see is a planet and is large and diverse enough to actually feel like a full planet.

Still not the first at that either. Valheim for example is a round planet and open world and has several biomes. But there the world isn't really impressive, so maybe that's what they are trying to be the first of?

Based on the trailer they are clearly trying to be the first game to actually achieve something but it's hard to define what that something really is.

Because nobody knows for sure how much a show will be worth in the future and everyone is afraid of losing or wasting potential money.

Brazil is so tall it has like 6 different climatic regions. 5 of them are currently a burning oven and the other one is drowning in constant rainstorms and cyclones.

Damn, América really is crazy. I wouldn't accept such tests and I've never even tried drugs.

I'll never forget the day I went out to the grocery store a couple blocks down and thought it was a good idea to also take the trash out.

I took the trash to the grocery store.

Meta was also recently ordered to pay a thousand dollars to every brazilian who can prove they were using Facebook in a specific year. Though they are still fighting back on that decision and no payment was made yet.

This will probably be changed into some fixed payment to the government instead, if not overturned completely, but it would be fun to see the whole country getting some extra paychecks for using Facebook.

On the subject of remote working being more productive or not, my anedoctal experience is that when remote working is fully embraced, the productivity skyrockets, but when it is embraced half-way it may have a negative effect.

When 2/3 of the employees are in an office, they tend to reach out to one another to discuss things and remote workers often get out of the loop. When everyone is working remotely, these discussions happen on slack channels for everyone to see. And if they are written down in a channel, folks can read it as many times as they need to ensure nothing was missed.

This may seem not to be too important, but it makes a massive difference at the end of the day. And you could try to make that happen without remote working but people will not stop walking out to someone else's cubicle for small questions when they have that option.
