If you use company resources they absolutely can claim ownership on whatever you create. That much I do know. Though to be fair I’m in Canada so our laws will definitely differ in some ways.

I’m just glad to live in a country where companies don’t get to own people.

Like, things you work on during your personal time, using personal resources, belongs to your employer?

That sounds illegal. I don’t know where you live but that does not sound right.

An old ASMR video - not a particularly good one, but one I enjoyed anyway. It was about a futuristic themed space travel agency. The woman in it described various planets as viable options, and at one point offered a tour guide whose name was something like “Loop Hole”. I remember that because it was such an odd name. At some point in the video she receives a Facebook message (not part of the video, likely a mistake, but the notification sound is there anyway). The background was wood paneling, kinda looked like it was filmed in a trailer.

It was made private on YouTube years and years ago.

For people who don’t get it: Duck Hunt was the most popular game that used the NES zapper. The way it worked was when the trigger was pulled, the screen went black for a split second except for a square of white. The zapper read the screen to see if it was aiming at the square and that determined if you hit your target. It only worked on CRT TV screens.

Honest people played as intended - standing at a distance, using the zapper like you would a gun.

Dishonest people would hold the zapper right up to the TV.

Chaotic people would just point the zapper at something producing white light (like a lamp) and fire away, technically never missing.

Your old man and me

If you’ve known him for 20 years he should respect you enough that you can tell him he’s being a cunt. Coming from you it should mean something, and maybe he’ll take a look at himself. I’m friends with some right wingers who are decent people but folks like that need to be called out.
