Eyeballing the login screen may give some insight, you're right that its probably unwise to try real creds if you don't recognize the server.

Home network or corporate?

Its a windows server, if you are using widows too you can try establishing a RDP connection with Remote Desktop Connection.

You are probably right but there has to be some kind of path forward baked into the regulations.

It will be a bit of a farce if retro gaming becomes illegal because no one submits the paperwork for 8-bit consoles.

I enjoyed the green hill zone set.

The others seem a bit pricy!

The 24 hours peak players was just under 250. The headline using "300" is understating things.

I'm getting interesting results with this:

I think naming a particular tech vendor is likely to get different results compared to using generic terms.

Any other topic I would agree ...

Wondermark has had some great ones over the years.

Without knowing anything of your history this question looks like its asked in bad faith.

If the question is legit then type "sealioning" into a search engine and read a few of the results.

Then with that knowledge reread the rules and they should be pretty clear.

The fact emulators are faster than the real hardware, can you blame them?

This is a problem Nintendo has had a few times before, choosing weaker hardware makes it much easier for other platforms to match and outpace them.

My first time playing Pokemon was emulating Pokemon Red on PC. For some reason they put it in Australian stores around a month after the US release so emulation was the only way.

Similarly GBA was playable on PC very early in its cycle. DS/3DS was a bit less attractive because of it screen layout and inputs but that kind of quirk aside underpowered handheld hardware is just asking for emulator support.

The bill text is concise and surprisingly readable.

They will either need "affirmative acknowledgment from the purchaser" of their rights or provide a "clear and conspicuous statement" clarifying the buying a digital good is a licence situation.

They provide this definition:

“Clear and conspicuous” means in a manner that clearly calls attention to the language, such as in larger type than the surrounding text, or in contrasting type, font, or color to the surrounding text of the same size, or set off from the surrounding text of the same size by symbols or other marks.

For "affirmative acknowledgment" my guess is something like PlayStation does currently might become common. Every time I checkout their purchase button is disabled until I tick a checkbox with this statement:

I request immediate access to my purchase and acknowledge that I will not be able to cancel my purchase once I start downloading or streaming the content.

Both of these scenarios should be displayed as part of the checkout flow, not hidden away in the ToS/EULA.

Title:

'Inside Out 2’ Clocks Near 31M Global Views

Body:

Disney’s Inside Out 2, drew 30.5 million views worldwide

All hype aside its OK to describe 30.5 as "around 30", "over 30", or even simply "30". Trying to round up like that only makes sense if it is rounding to a landmark number.

 

I'm reading the 2015 Howard the Duck and it looks like it had companion content available on a now defunct mobile app.

What the content ripped and archived anywhere?

 

The Australian Government has announced changes to the way video games are classified in Australia. Starting from September 22nd, 2024, two new rules will apply to games that include “in-game purchases with an element of chance,” such as loot boxes [now M], and games that feature “simulated gambling,” like casino games [now R18+].

The spoiler syntax is supported when editing but fails to render when viewing.

Example (spoiler alert I suppose!):

Personally I have held back from discussing details of current films because spoiler masking isn't guaranteed and I don't want to ruin anyone's experience. If Boost can add this then we are one step closer to a perfect world.

The gif format is currently lacking pinch zoom support.

This makes it impossible to see details like text in larger images.

Some examples:
