It's the end of an era. Microsoft's Channel 9 site is folding, with most its content moving over to Microsoft Learn, company officials say. I guess someone lost the remote
"Sandquist’s boss had a terrible fear of flying and refused to board a plane until a United Airlines pilot told him about Channel 9.

Really, they couldn't just call it "the Positive and Negative Experience Scale"? Then the acronym would be PANES!

People are paying in the real world with Axie Infinity's gaming tokens. That could turn a fun feature into an onramp to cryptocurrency for financial services. You play 16 levels, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt
