I didn't realize one of the organizers was bargain bin Stanley Tucci.

I hate to say it but company data is most definitely on personal computers.

This is why stuff like adaptive MFA and DLP are a thing. What most people don't know is if DLP is properly implemented the IT team/department have records of who, when, where, and what device were used to not just access/download data/files.

The problem is a lot of companies don't properly implement DLP because it's not a turn key solution. You need to properly classify your data first and that requires essentially a company wide audit with buy-in from all levels of management. After the classifications you can then implement restrictions and compensating controls.

Back in the day you could just block USB/network transfer, but if you have data accessible outside of a corporate network you then need to implement conditional access/adaptive MFA where only registered devices are permitted to access certain systems.

I never considered or thought about union assistance nor the possibility it would be prohibited. It would have been nice for the article to explain in more detail how the exemption works.

My initial question reading this was, do SAG-AFTRA actors working on movies have similar exemptions - a movie started over a year before a strike is called is exempted from said strike?

From the article is says these terms were inherited from legacy agreements prior to SAG and AFTRA merging so it may just be specific to video games.

What really caught my attention was at the end of the article it states union members can strike in solidarity and cannot be retaliated for doing so.

So a second question is raised, if the members are still allowed to strike in solidarity and in THEORY can't be punished for doing so how is GTA6 really exempt from the strike then IF they are using SAG-AFTRA members?

I think it would be better to state there is no GUARANTEE that actors working on GTA6 will strike due to previously negotiated contracts, but that wording makes them sound more like scabs whereas putting the emphasis on the contract exemption makes it sound like they are obligated to keep working.

Chief Justice Roberts yelling at Justice Thomas, "Thomas ya really fucked our reputation with all your blatant corruption."

"Ah fuck em, I think people are only jealous. They can't be corrupt and get away with it like I can.", Thomas quips

"You greasy old scumbag! You just gave me the best way we can get the other branches off our ass!" Roberts exclaims.

The development cycle is very iterative, and incredibly time consuming, which is why games are now taking six and seven years to build, as they've gotten bigger and deeper," said Wilson, "So the first thing for us is how do we make that more efficient?"

I dunno maybe take a page from indie developers and make fun games that are innovative?

I'll take quality over quantity every time.

The Pi 5 costs around $126, not including the SSD or case...

The Pi 5 8GB is $80. Where is the extra $46 if they aren't including the case and SSD? Taxes at 20%, which is generous, would only increase the cost by $17 if they are including the $5 fan. That means shipping would be around $24, which seems a bit high.
