Maybe I'm cynical, but this seems like something that would be incredibly easy to fake

This could run in Javascript if you setup print as an alias for window.alert or console.log

Hasn't it changed from FAANG to MAANA?

How do we know the moon isn't tasty? Isn't it made of cheese?

Yeah, I feel like all Chinese companies profit off selling customer data first, selling products second.

When Playstation reads a disc, it looks for a special sequence on the disc that tells the Playstation "hey, this is a Playstation game. You should load it."

That sequence is proprietary and isn't on burned copies of games. This is anti-piracy protection, and makes sense from a monetary standpoint.

When you put Alien: Resurrection in the console, which has that sequence, the Playstation is told that "hey, this is a real Playstation game. You should load it." The game loads, then you can put in the cheat, which tells the game to stop loading from the disc momentarily while another disc is loaded (think "please insert disc 2 from final fantasy"). At this point, you can pop in your burned copy of the game, then press a button to continue loading from disc, at which point the game tells the system "hey, this new guy is with me. Let him through", and the Playstation loads the new game from the disc.

The guy rotated his hips to ask the streaming booth to his left if they have the movie, thus his feet were still aimed at the booth in the first panel.

I also noticed Mazda wasn't on there. Doesn't even come up in a search. Does that mean they're more respectful of privacy?

I'm a principal dev (the step higher than senior in my company) and I'm under 40. I think it mostly depends on luck and being in the right place at the right time.
