Stripe handles the actual card details, while Cape only receives the token, which cannot be mapped to your real credit card number.

Good thing the founding financiers of Stripe, Cape, and Palantir aren't the same person.

Meanwhile in indie land, I just tried to cheat my way through a Chapter 3 minigame in Deltarune, and Toby Fox himself showed up in his dogsona to blow up the game and make me start the minigame over.

This is the extent to which anti-cheat measures should go.

Hawkeye was at least kinda neat as a superhero take on a Christmas movie / series. And the in-universe Rogers: The Musical was a pretty good gag.

I'm not saying it's ABSOLUTE CINEMA

It's true. One kilogram of dark matter weighs as much as ten thousand kilograms of feathers.
