Star Trek is in a tough spot. The 59-year-old sci-fi franchise launched a series of streaming shows over the past decade in an attempt to build Paramount Plus into a true Netflix competitor. Now, that effort is winding down as Trekkies prepare for the Original Series' 60th birthday this September. But before then, the last show standing from Star Trek's streaming era will take one more big swing this summer. source https://www.polygon.com/strange-new-worlds-season-3-plot-explainer/

FPS games on PC have had cheaters and players using unfair hacks for as long as they've been around. Various anticheat solutions have come and gone, to varying degrees of success. One of the latest, that almost every modern FPS game is implementing, are hardware-level protections, such as enabling secure boot and TPM 2.0. Wardogs will follow suit with that requirement, Bulkhead CEO Joe Brammer told Polygon. He wouldn't go into much more detail about the studio's specific anticheat plans, but when it comes to exploits, he thinks the game itself will protect players from unfair behavior: source https://www.polygon.com/wardogs-interview-cheaters-exploiters-wont-succeed/
