been watching this Japanese youtube channel covering Famicom game secrets and unusual hardware recently & in a video about Bubble Bobble they incidentally showed this inaccurate but very cute artist's depiction of Bub from a magazine around the time of the FDS version's release. i love him actually

That's also a risk of the curfew thing, even if optional. The platforms might well not be arsed with implementing the stupid ideas of a departing government in a small country & might instead set the min age for UK access at 18 to avoid the hassle. So it could end up as a de facto under 18 ban

The impact of this bit about disabling autoplay and infinite scroll by default will depend a lot on how platforms respond. Many don't allow them switched off at all. Would be good if they added the options for everyone. But they might just implement it narrowly or block UK 16-17s to avoid doing it

"Britain's oldest children" is also an extremely funny phrase. Sounds like a channel 4 show about age regressors

Interesting that they cite the low % of self reported VPN use as part of their reasoning for not restricting them. Goes to show that if you are using some measures to circumvent government restrictions it is best not to tell the fucking government about it
ukpol
Well this is fucking stupid but also not as bad as the original leaks considering it can be overridden by the user & they also apparently are not planning to restrict VPNs

one of my fans is on the way out so i'm looking for a new one. obviously they're sold out everywhere in the UK so i even resorted to checking aliexpress & while there's nothing worthwhile there (shipping is too slow and/or expensive for bulky items like that) i did find this one with a BL motor
