Microsoft has access to Sony records to help with the FTC inquiry on MSoft owning Activision. The records can only go back to 2019, but that's enough to know how much Sony has lied about stuff.
Videogames: VR
Battle Royale game for quest goes free to play.
Nearly 20 million Quest headsets sold. That's really pathetic numbers. I was honestly hoping for more.

Nvidia, the big name in AI creation tools, is having a big conference. Every lecture seems to be top down. Medical science and AI to help the doctor diagnose the problems. Nice way of saying A) we don't know what AI is doing, but B) it's coming for your job.
The US government warns companies to stop exaggerating their AI powers, or saying something has AI power when it doesn't.
Don't use ChatGPT, because teachers have totally figured out how to spot it. Yeah, cause teachers are smart. That's why they're the teacher and you're the student. Ha!!

Film and TV
Silent Hill movie has a cast.
https://archive.ph/CGpfD https://screenrant.com/return-to-silent-hill-movie-story-details/
The creators of the new D&D film enjoyed emasculating the male characters. Not for any SJW reasons, but because it was fun. I'm guessing the characters will be defeated by an Imp.
Disney+ has Anime, just not in the US.
Social Media
LinkedIn has entered it's cringe era. I use it to get good links and see new tech being used.
TikTok gets information from other apps, so banning it won't help.
US Park Services Advises people through Social Media to push their friends over if a bear appears.
Science
Urine powered butt engine used by insects.
A professor of entomology found a weird bug on his windshield at Walmart. He immediately killed it and mounted it on his wall. Then, 10 years later, he is teaching a class online and realized it was an extinct species. He made sure to write papers and get publicity for it.
Using cosmic rays, and tiny cameras a hidden corridor in an Egyptian pyramid was found and mapped out.
Propaganda
Not in my back yard (NIMBY) is destroying America.
Governor of Virginia vetoed bill that would ban search warrants for women's menstrual cycle information by app.
Something is making international delegates sick. The CIA says it's not from other countries.
Roughly 10% of oil shipping vessels are being used to secretly move Russian supplies to buyers. No one knows which ones though.
Work from home regulations are coming. This is a terrible archive that doesn't complete the article.
There have been several articles on CPAC, but this one caught my attention. It's about late night people mocking it, and calling everyone involved Nazis. Blatant propaganda. Then the lower article says black owned and run theaters are closing down because they can't be diverse enough.
Hyundai was going to compete with Tesla for EV sales. EVs are the future you know. The US offered $7,500 per car for US made cars, so Hyundai lost.
The shop teacher with enormous fake giant tits was put on leave. Paid leave might I add. He's winning.
There are now brain gyms to pump up your mind. I expect it to be about as useful as all the other brain strength programs that have been promoted over the years.
A woman shows off how she got away with a shear skin tight dress at work. It's entirely about how great she is, and that the only way for women to move forward is to look good.
Former Greatness
English and Humanities majors are slowing down. The numbers are showing a 50% drop in enrollment, especially among minorities. Women's studies and other such majors are hit the hardest.
A common term used in obvious propaganda is the word Master Class. As if this email, or that tweet taught everyone how smart this person or company is. Anyway, Disney just gave a Master Class on how to respond to their asses getting kicked.
Messed Up
Congenital Syphilis on the rise. The article covers everything, except sex.
Hey, want to know who could broker peace between Russia and the US? Freaking Steven Segal.
