Im still undecided about if it looks fun though

Yeah because taking your pets to an arena-style fight to "fainting" is also a great model for the kids lmao

Pokémon's dog fighting aside, Palworld has a certain cynicism that imo takes it out of the realm of a kids game. The game allows you to capture humans and then has a little blurb about how it's "inhumane" to do so. There's a niche for an "adult" monster capture game that Palworld is filling. I'm curious about how the game will continue to develop in early access. They have a lot of funding & hype, let's see if they can see it through to a full release (or wallow in development like so many other Early Access survival games).

I think you're a great parent who interrogates the media that your child is consuming!

The aesthetic of Palworld feeds that cynicism; it's charming and colorful and awfully brutal. Parents should be aware of the game's content and the game should probably get a Teen rating (at least in the US; not sure how PEGI does their rating).

Most forgiving brewing method?

Honestly, your ingredients are going to far surpass any brewing method. I've brewed cheap coffee in my Chemex that didn't taste very good and quality coffee in a hotel in-room Coffee machine that tasted amazing.

Good Beans + Good Water gets you like 70% of the way to good coffee.

Roblox data leak sees 4,000 developer profiles including identifying information made public

The website haveibeenpwned says the original breach date was 18 December 2020, with the information becoming available on 18 July 2023, with a total of 3,943 compromised accounts. The site notes that as well as all the above information, the leak even includes each individual's t-shirt size.

Looks like someone in charge of organizing that event got phished. This seems like the type of info that can fit into an excel sheet.
