I don’t think it’s going to happen that way. Body cams are needed if you want to record people working in the field, such as police officers, but for people working at a fixed location, an office or factory or what have you, CCTV cameras are cheaper, less intrusive, and harder for a bad actor to screw with by “accidentally” covering their lens or forgetting to turn their unit on.

It’d be region locked to hell. The International Olympic Committee sells the TV rights for each country at an exorbitant price, so the broadcasters feel the need to zealously defend their investments.

This didn’t even make the US broadcast. NBC skipped a lot of countries from the Parade of Nations. As a country of immigrants, you’d think they’d show them all.

Detected by equipment on the International Space Station. There is no antimatter on the station itself.

If challenged on this, South Korea simply replies they’re responding to trash with trash.

I am so sad this was Kevin Conroy’s final time voicing Batman. The man deserved to go out on a high note.

Setting the release schedule around vacations and holidays. Sounds like the devs have a respectable work / life balance.

Air BnB is destroying the housing market in my area. That said, it’s exposing a demand for something that doesn’t otherwise exist. In addition to hotels, people also want to be able to rent larger spaces, with a kitchen so they don’t have to eat out every night, and multiple bedrooms so the adults don’t have to go to bed at the same time as the kids. Hotel developers should be taking notes.

Who cares if you’re potentially extending a war if there’s wartime profiteering to be had?

I don’t get why so many people begrudge YouTube for trying make money. They serve up 5TB of video data every second. Somebody’s got to pay for all of that. They know ads suck, that’s why they sell no ad subscriptions.

The big thing to differentiate 7D2D is every seventh night you’ll be besieged by a zombie horde. You spend the week reinforcing your defenses, stockpiling ammo, and upgrading your gear, then you’re tested. If you’re interested in this kind of game loop, it’s worth a in-game week or two. Like many of these games, they’re more fun with friends.

The UK is going through the same thing. The Prime Minister dissolved Parliament about two weeks ago, and elections are going to be held of July 4th. (An odd choice, but apparently elections are always on a Thursday in the UK.)

Could be red plastic flowers reflecting sunlight and washing them out.

The needless gaps are there for touchscreen optimization, even on things you never use a touchscreen on, like a desktop OS.

The word of the day is yonic. It’s the female equivalent of the word phallic.

I guess hydrogen is technically an antioxidant, in that hydrogen + oxygen = boom + no more oxygen.

The Into the Spider-Verse trailer avoids the plot twists and reveals while showing off their new animation style. I think there’s one or two lines and scenes in the trailer that didn’t make the movie itself, I don’t remember Miles and Peter sitting on a subway bench having a conversation. (It may have been a red herring, to avoid showing the actual scene with additional characters.)

This game has been in Early Access so long it’s lost all meaning. Good for the devs, I guess, to continue to put time and energy into the game for so long.

I thought Notch was employee #1 of Mojang.
