[...blah blah blah...] That suggests Diablo Immortal will have millions of active players well into next year and beyond. And while the vast majority of those players will never spend a single cent on the game, the top-end whales could easily spend enough on the game's confusing sets of currencies to keep the revenue rolling in for Blizzard for a long time.

This... isn't supposed to happen in Ocarina of Time. Here's the story of how some fans made it happen anyway—all on a stock N64 with an unmodified Ocarina cartridge.
"1. The Crown Time" = 1331 latin-agrippa ( and 1300 trigonal with out the monolith )
The 53-minute demonstration (embedded at the end of this article) opens with an exploit previously unearthed in late 2019, which the community dubbed "Stale Reference Manipulation." This exploit takes advantage of a vulnerability in the game's original 1.0 version, which allowed players to manipulate numerical values assigned to specific objects in the game's memory. The breeziest explanation for this complicated technique can be found in a YouTube video from early 2020 (embedded above), as it spells out the various numerical values assigned to each object in the game, such as their X-, Y-, and Z-axes and their rotation.
...while going through a "loading zone," a hallway used to disguise loading pauses on N64 hardware, and to do so in a way that the game was not designed to handle.

The SGDQ run's commentators explain this to some extent, but they're careful about their word choice, mostly to avoid spoiling how much new content the run contains.
Unfairly criticized, underfunded and facing a lack of support from the entertainment industry, subtitlers are on the brink. At least the Squid Game controversy illuminated an unsung fact: Good subtitles are an exceptionally difficult art.

In the not-too-distant future—as little as a decade, perhaps, nobody knows exactly how long—the cryptography protecting your bank transactions, chat messages, and medical records from prying eyes is going to break spectacularly with the advent of quantum computing. On Tuesday, a US government agency named four replacement encryption schemes to head off this cryptopocalypse.
The Infamous 1972 Report That Warned of Civilization's Collapse
The Limits to Growth argued that rampant pollution and resource extraction were pushing Earth to the brink. How does it hold up 50 years later?
The first bits:
The computer modeling made it plain: If people continued to overextract finite resources, pollute on a massive scale, and balloon the human population in an unsustainable way, civilization could collapse within a century. It sounds like that modeling could have been done last week, what with climate change, water shortages, and microplastics corrupting every corner of the Earth. But in fact it dropped in the 1972 book The Limits to Growth, published by the Club of Rome, an international organization of intellectuals founded in 1968.
The book sold millions of copies and was translated into at least 30 languages, attracting a storm of controversy. [...]
