I'm just another person on the internet. Y'know, just like you, or that weird thing behind you.
By -design- its a reporting system.
However, how it is end implemented by platforms would likely work like either an auto-block of matched images/hashes, and possibly flagging that account for further (probably automated) action.
While I laud the effort, & its a good step, its ripe for abuse.

Mind it is also a civil case, not a criminal case. So prosecuting it would be through a lawsuit. The potential lost wages, incurred costs moving, and a probably year-long lease puts you well out of small-claims. This means you'll likely need a lawyer, as the company def will have one.

No, no. Promissory Estoppel is still illegal in the USA. Just difficult to prosecute against given limited resources, and limited interest by the judiciary to hear such cases.
So, actually illegal, but effectively legal due to difficulty in getting a resolution against it.

Wouldn't that be a case of employment rights violations via promissory estoppel?
Not that a suddenly just-moved, out-of-work and stuck with a lease worker can really afford such a lawsuit and see it through to completion.
Still, that's pretty fucked. Also likely illegal.

Thailand specifically, but I've had problems getting their block message page in Ph and southern CN though as well.
They give a page that basically says they made a business decision to not serve this region.

Wish us over here in SEA could read WoWHead. I know y'all blocked it almost a decade ago at this point, but its still obnoxious having to get on a VPN just to read articles or look up quest/item info.

Why does this give the comedic duality mental vision of refined and utterly pristine secretary, only to completely lose her shit and machine-gun stomp some poor snek delivery person that happened to catch her unaware and spooked her? (Which would be appropriate considering the actual RL animal)

"Project A-ko" series of 4 movies, and some AU OVAs
It's entire reason for existence is to parody other anime, and it does a darn good job while also maintaining its own schtick.
Tons of easter-eggs everywhere, lots of both overt mocking and subtle nods.
It even got manga adaptation AFTER movies.

If I remember correctly, that was "Adventures of Tom Sawyer". This is a scene from the overhead view river sections. I had this game as a kid, but never finished it to my memory. It was difficult as heck.

Yeah, they tend to have predatory pricing practices, are often user hostile, and are often -creator- hostile. Also, have been on an absolute tear recently taking down pirate sites, having made a coalition of KR & JP publishers to throw extra weight behind it. Many translator sites have been purged.

This way they could allow it, but it would be a second-class citizen. Forcing it all through emulators or VMs would allow it to isolate bugs with it and allow it to be an optional part of the OS. Once isolated, it wouldn't need constant maintenance, only to match up with major system API changes.

I think what would have been the best way to deprecate it from the main-OS would have been to either force all 32-bit apps to VMs or an emulation layer (like they did switching between instruction sets for their CPUs). That could remove _most_ of the main OS issues and isolate it, but allow access.

That said, while that is PC's major weakness, it is also its major strength. You can load up and run software from decades ago. Got an old device, plug it in, and it is likely to work (well maybe after a reboot). However, it leaves us with tons of jank, unstable platforms,& unintuitive shifts in UI.

I think part of the issue for PC (and we're talking Windows specifically) is legacy compatibility. We have DECADES of compatibility layers and cruft to support. That and the industry loses its focus on what it needs to do every few quarters to years. So we never get proper deprecation/cleanup.

I've seen a number of "official" translated titles censor 'problematic' terms. I've seen this on DMM a few times. This is probably to help avoid getting yeeted by advertiser scans and/or payment processors.
