I haven't played Timberborn but I almost did pick it up on the spring sale, decided to get dotAGE instead to see what all the fuss was about and damn I love it.

The Super Bowl broadcast is notorious for drawing a large contingent of non-football fans who watch for the commercials and the half-time show. Now, an Alberta liquor store is offering a trio of Super Bowl-themed six packs ahead of Sunday’s big game, including one targeted at the newest group of NFL fans.
It's a collection of already existing products not a product on it's own, and the image is an AI rendering.

If it is illegal it sure doesn't seem worth enforcing.
Faced with new laws in California and other states, big tech lobbyists want to sign a “Memorandum of Understanding” to prevent “a compliance market where lawyers drive the decisions.”

I’m requesting for recommendations for games that stand out from the rest in their genre, and not in the sense of being the best game in that niche but actually bringing something new and innovative to the table. I’ve not had much experience in gaming, but I have a few games to give you a hint on what I am talking about:...
At some point in this millenium, it became ubiquitous in games to ask for a button press before switching to the main menu and it has become a pet peeve off mine....
Uh I mean where is the hassle in right clicking an image and hitting save? NFTs associated with images are just trash data people think are valuable because??? Someone told them so???
Well if everyone defederated the message would be clear: Meta is unwelcome here. Their following press releases would probably spin a very different narrative about immature tech and privacy concerns.
