To me, the term "Web3 games" sounds like they're trying to make a knockoff of Cookie Clicker with NFTs.

Nice, but someone needs to teach that kid that you only need the watch?v= part. The subsequent &si= and &pp= parts are useless tracking bits.

...most followed user,

Abusing site admin powers to force accounts to follow you really shouldn't count.

Honestly, after all the shit YouTube is pulling with their ad systems, I wouldn't mind those old tiny banner strip ads that used to occasionally pop up at the bottom of a video. Compared to the current standard of 3 minutes of unskippable ads interrupting every other video, those little banners are downright unobtrusive.

Sony: "And lastly..."
Gestures to a life-size Lovander doll
Sony: "Palworld the mega-doll! Pose it however you want! Stand it dramatically in a window! Lay it in bed and use it as a pillow!"

Sony (smugly): "But we know what you're really going to use it for. You naughty little hand-holder, you."

Players (suspicious): "So what is it you're doing here, Sony?"

Sony: "Merchandizing."

Players: "Merchandizing? What's that?"

Sony: "Merchandizing! Come, I'll show you. Open up this door."

Sony: "Come, take a look! We've got the game's logo on everything. Merchandizing, merchandizing... Where the real money from the game is made."

Sony: "Palworld the t-shirt! Palworld the cell phone case! Palworld the laptop stickers! *Palworld, the flamethrower!"

Fwooosh!

Sony: "The kids love it."

...This is not a publishing deal for Palworld the video game, or an acquisition by Sony, rather an attempt to make the most of the game’s huge popularity with non-video game products, such as merchandise and music...

Looks like we're safe from any forced PSN account requirements. For now...

I am so using this on my boyfriend tomorrow. I just need to put glasses on my avatar first.

To quote my parents whenever I was being disciplined for something immature, "Act your age, not your shoe size."

According to the article, Twitter is also charging $42,000 minimum for enterprise access. That's over $500k per year. If I was a Nintendo employee, I would not only cut that expense, but also use it as leverage for a massive end of year bonus.

Thankfully I don't do anything that requires me to have Photoshop, but if I did, I'd be explicitly blocking all outbound connections in the firewall.

The top half are Black Hungarians, and the bottom are jalapeños. I actually ended up with more than I have pots for. I'll see if anyone in the office wants some of them.
