Sierra entertainment! I was a big fan of the kings quest games, and Sierra online was my first experience with online gaming.

C++ has had the same style of obtuse errors for decades. They can be a real pain to figure out even if you are used to seeing them.

Check your employment contract. If that includes an NDA or a confidentiality agreement, the company may own your design as well as any code produced. Writing the program from scratch a second time may still end up being company property.

Given that they didn't put your program into production, it's unlikely they would pursue you legally for releasing a new version on your own.

Every significant organisation, government, big company probably had done something terrible at some point.

Yup, which is why it's basically impossible to be an ethical consumer these days. "The Good Place" did a really entertaining exploration of this idea.

Every .io domain you buy funds a government committing crimes against humanity.

The .io TLD wikipedia article claims that it has always been operated by private entities and no revenue is shared with the United Kingdom

How long until YT is totally paywalled?

Probably never. I doubt they could offset ad revenue with subscription fees.

I installed Persona 5 Royale yesterday and Sun about two hours into it. I'm not finding the gameplay or the story interesting, and the amount of time spent in cutscenes is wearing me down. Does it get better? Or is this game just not for me?

It's unclear what any of the images have to do with the article.
