A Tech Affair episode 196: WhatsApp terms and conditions, Disney Plus account sharing, "Manhunt", "Turbo Kid"
WhatsApp is changing its terms and conditions. What's behind this? Will account sharing on Disney Plus soon be a thing of the past? In "Manhunt" we pursue the murderer of Abe Lincoln and in "Turbo Kid" we face the post-apocalypse on a BMX.
Meta is adapting the WhatsApp terms and conditions. There are four major changes - which also apply to Switzerland. Disney Plus wants to finally get into the black and is putting a stop to account sharing.
"Manhunt" is the name of the new Apple TV Plus series that revolves around the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. The series follows both the murderer of the US president and his pursuer. It also looks at the political tensions in the country that characterised the end of the Civil War. "Real Swiss" is only indirectly about war. The documentary portrays three Swiss officers with a migration background. They talk about their role in the military and how integrated, or not, they feel.
We played "Turbo Kid". A 2D Metroidvania inspired by the film of the same name. In a post-apocalyptic world, you explore the world on a BMX and shoot bandits into pixel slush with your laser glove. There is also shooting in "Buckshot Roulette", but it is more targeted. It's a kind of Russian roulette, but with a shotgun and various tools.

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
