@UbisoftSupport In 2010 my U-Play account was hacked along with 20,000 other accounts. 16 years later, and my account has still not been restored. What's taking so long?
Xbox 360 was the first console to have:
1. A Detachable Harddrive
2. A Wireless Controller
3. Rechargeable Batteries
4. HD 720p Resolution
5. An Online Marketplace
6. Downloadable Content
7. Gamer Profile, Gamertag
8. Achievements, Gamerscore
9. A Friends List
10. Videochat
11. Voicechat
12. Voice Messaging
13. Text Messaging
14. Xbox Live, Play with Anyone,
Anywhere in the World.
Playstation had to copy all these features or look outdated.
The Xbox 360 is the reason I still choose Xbox instead of Playstation.

It delivers solid 4K 60 FPS performance in demanding titles like Cyberpunk 2077 on High settings with upscaling.
The hardware sits in PS5 Pro territory for rasterization while remaining fully upgradeable within case limits.
It excels for Steam gaming, native Linux titles, and EmuDeck emulation straight out of the box.
Brandon Sanderson savages George Lucas' Star Wars prequel trilogy:
"These the acting is-. They aren't well directed. The pacing is terrible. The world building is audacious in how boring it is. But I'm very fond of them. ...
Why I'm so happy to put this in D because they are lovable D's. Most things that we would put in D, we would be cringing. These are lovable D's."
Is this accurate?
Ever wondered how long a single day lasts on each planet?

@elonmusk I was in a self-driving Tesla a few months ago.
In the first 30 seconds, it almost hit a curb, then a parked car, then a pedestrian, and finally it sped 20 mph over the limit.
New York wants a cut of Counter-Strike’s loot box economy on Valve’s Steam platform.
Officials argue the game’s paid case openings amount to gambling, as players spend real money for randomized skins with real resale value.
The attorney general is seeking full restitution for every resident who has ever “gambled” on a loot box, regardless of age, plus a penalty worth three times Valve’s related profits.

Microsoft is changing a Windows kernel policy that's been around for decades.
Starting in April 2026, Windows will stop trusting certain old kernel drivers by default.
These drivers were signed using a legacy system from the early 2000s that Microsoft retired in 2021.
From now on, the Windows kernel will only accept drivers that are properly signed through the modern Windows Hardware Compatibility Program.
Microsoft has also created a special list that will still allow some trusted older drivers to work.
@congressdj Looks to me like the Tesla was speeding. 38 mph on a single lane road? That's almost always 25 mph where I live. Business, residential, and school areas are always 25 unless posted otherwise.
Tesla FSD saves a school bus full of children! My Model Y Performance braked so hard that everything on my seats ended up on the floor.
It infuriates me that school bus drivers are allowed to be this bad at driving.
In an autonomous future, more lives will be saved like this.
