They give you either a link where you complete the census online or a physical booklet with all the questions present to collect data from the population. What happens if you continue disregarding the census in the US? When was the last census conducted on the entire country? Even then, is answering questions on the census mandatory for both citizens and tourists alike? Also, what are the repercussions for providing false answers?

When the game came out back in 2024 it barely surpassed 1000 players on steam, eventually the servers were shut down a fortnight after it was released: so the game didn't even last that long. Development costs were not cheap either, since Sony invested $400,000,000 into the project for it to fall apart upon release, talk about a waste of investors money. Have you played it at the time? If so, what made it a shit game that's forgotten?

I’ve heard from my gamer friends who reside in Australia that any game that’s 18+ on steam is hit with a barrier of AV (mainly adding a CC, not a debit card) before they can even view the page despite them owning the title. The real solution to overcome this hurdle is: region change, as from Australia > (other country) which is only applicable if you’re an expat gamer having a valid payment method & billing address from (that country).

I obtained this screenshot from a friend of mine who lives in Australia, this came up for any "adult" (non-pornographic) game like Doom or Resident Evil. I can view those games as normal as someone from abroad.

The alternative is using a premium VPN for region change but you’ll still require both a valid payment method & billing address from abroad finalizing steam “migration” to another nation’s storefront. However, this carries its own risks relating to account termination if caught. I’m a foreigner, so it doesn’t affect me personally but I feel them, the frustrations on having to submit CC just to gain access otherwise the page is inaccessible.

What's up with the $20 bill being sought after by counterfeiters the most when its face value is shit in comparison to $100? Stores being scammed with fake cash that a pen is needed to distinguish between genuine and fake, its a problem they encounter quite a lot. US Dollars are printed with a single layer consisting of linen and cotton, which is easy for counterfeiters to exploit (like bleaching a $5 bill imprinting $100).

That's something you don't hear about as much with Swiss Francs as they have top notch security features (they're printed vertically at different sizes). Every denomination (from 10-1000) features a globe with security ink showing dynamic color changes and a shifting arc when tilted. The bills are printed using an innovative three-layer composite material known as Durasafe which involves 8 complex printing processes.
