They should implement honeypots like they did with Dota 2: https://www.dota2.com/newsentry/3677788723152833273 but yeah I can agree, my friends say CS2 is full of cheaters, I have played 7-12k rating and I got only a f

I just wish this brings more research into Thorium based reactors, as they seem to be the future of sustainable nuclear power. Maybe a SMR powered by Thorium in the future? Who knows.

The worst part of this is, Thorium-based reactors seem to be the future of nuclear, but because of FUD and politics, no one is funding research to find out whether the theoretical thorium reactors are the way to go forward.

My company did a survey on this. Comparing 2021 to 2023, WFH had 15-20% more supporters than WFO, as per last year's results. They simply ignored this statistic and mandated a return to office anyways. 98% of the people responded negat

What if your supervisor can't allow you remote work because policies from higher management strictly forbid it? What do you do in this case? Go to the office and not be productive?

Musk said you can use Starlink to circumvent the block if X gets blocked in Brazil. IANAL but I'm pretty sure this is legal ground enough (plus all the shit Musk spits on Twitter, attacking Brazil and its institutions, a criminal offen

It's not a question whether the judge disliked what X did or not. They were subpoenaed to block the accounts engaged in anti-democratic speech. Failing to do so, X would have to pay a 2k USD daily fine until they cooperated. X decided
