It's 3D compared to pinball videogames from the 70s/80s, which were decidedly not. It actually looks like a pinball game that could exist, the ball moves relatively realistically, and has paths that go 'over' the main play field.
Which is why it's bad writing.
"Unblockable killing spell" is the kind of thing that pops up on a middle school playground because every kid wants to have the trump card in make-believe and the last kid just cast Meteor.
Eragon is a contemporary-ish book and has killing magic that can kill normies by the dozens/hundreds, but other magic users have to do more than play rock-paper-nuclear-option.
Thankfully this one is built of many redundant layers instead of just one layer of metal.
According to the college it was, according to the FBI they were going to prosecute him federally anyway.
Will anyone be better than Tom?
Became everyone's friend, became a millionaire, retired, (so far?) avoided falling off the right wing conspiracy cliff. Kind of just a quiet dude.
What are you talking about?
This is not about streaming to a laptop or Internet access. This is about a long range, low power, low bandwidth network using 2.4GHz. It's using 2.4GHz, like everyone else likes to, because it's the "free" signal band that you don't have to pay to license. It's for sending the message "Sprinkler head 1039A is leaking" from a solar panel powered transmitter without having to run a data cable or network repeaters.
It's competition for Zigbee/Z-Wave/Matter. Not the herald of the ISP crackdown Armageddon.
* Assuming there is no bug, zero-day, or other vulnerability on the current version of your fully updated device.
Having a power-only cable removes that as a possibility.
Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can't sue them for anything. Ever.
So there's that to worry about now.
Perfect should not be the enemy of Good. Reforming the entire system is not something that just happens. It takes several steps in the right direction and you have to start somewhere.
Mostly I think its fine for all that.
But there's a special circle of hell for projects that rely on it for "documentation".
I get the temptation, I really do. But once you're taking money or have more than a couple people involved and semi-organized you really need at least a small wiki/git-hub landing page with the basics.
I know documentation is a separate skillset and a lot of work in its own right but projects can also stagnate and die because there isn't any.
It should be. But I would be extremely surprised if everything in the terms of service isn't worded something like "you're buying a license to view this content that can be revoked whenever".

The FCC is currently trying to apply Fairness Doctrine to late night shows in retaliation for them having James Talarico on.
