Did Tencent buyout Epic?

In this video this guy has a fresh Windows XP, disables firewall, and connects internet straight to the modem. Then he gets infected literally doing nothing.

I get it. That's asking for trouble when you disable all the security and using ancient unsupported OSes.
However, he didn't install programs nor browse on the website but still got hacked.
How?
Is there some malicious server in China that loops through every single possible IP trying to see if your PC is vulnerable?
Logically, one would think you'd at least have to visit a website or something to get "noticed" and then hacked. But this guy didn't do anything at all.
How does it work?
Note: I DO NOT want history spoilers.
Ousen is Wang Jian. And Wang Jian is HISTORY SPOILERS: >!supposed to have never lost a battle. But he clearly lost in the Battle of Hango.!<
This isn't even ambiguous-able like when Riboku lost but "technically" Houken was the leader (in name).
Why did Hara go off-script so much?
A reminder: he is the leader of the weapon division and at the same level as the Elder.
He was introduced out of nowhere.
I get why: they needed someone on par with the Elder, but I felt it could've been done better, perhaps with some better backstory about the guy before they fought.
All we got was some small exposition.
I've got like 10 WD Elements external HDDs.
I want to store them neatly and nicely, as neat and nice as possible.
I don't want to shuck them.
I don't want to put them in plastic containers (plastic = static = bad for electronics).
I don't have a 3D printer.
What is the best way to store them?
I currently have it in a cardboard shoe box, but the HDDs are heavy so the box is bending. Also, I have a silverfish infestation so I want to avoid cardboard.
I have a bunch of cardboard banker's boxes (12" x 16", 11" height).
I want to get rid of them because I have a silverfish infestation.
I want to replace them with clear plastic containers that have no holes and can be sealed shut.
Any recommendations?
I know IKEA pegboards uses proprietary holes and are not compatible with regular pegboard.
I am now having to decide which to get.
What are the benefits in getting IKEA pegboards that I won't get from regular pegboards?

I've tried ZIT. Extremely impressed. Although I do noticed the low variation and low prompt adherence that people mention about.
I then tried ZIB. Looks really bad? I know it's supposed to be used for training and that ZIT of course should look better, but still... There's a lot of horror and grotesqueness.
It does has high variation, which I've heard people say it does.
Am I using ZIB wrong? It's practically unusable.
Both ZIT and ZIB I'm just using the workflows from the ComfyUI templates, no changes besides prompts.
Authors with no creativity, so their thought processes goes:
>In a world with super powers/magic, you know what would be cool?! If our main character is super duper special and can cancel/copy/steal those powers!
It's lazy and uncreative. No better than fanfic. There hasn't been a series that is good with a main character like this.
Small list of examples:
My Hero Academia
Index
Korra
Black Clover
90% of all the Isekai genre
I've got a bunch of extra PC fans and a controller (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FMDKYCKH).
My PC case has plenty of fans already. Any other cool uses for extra unused PC fans?
Consider this: you have two photographers.
One that just takes their smartphone and clicks on the button to take a picture.
The second has a DSLR, multiple lens, knowledge in ISO/aperture/etc and carefully selects how and when to take the photo.
Now consider this: you have two AI artists.
One just prompts: "1girl anime in rainy environment" and prompts 100 outputs and just chooses the best one.
The second crafts a detailed prompt, and then gen edits it until everything in there is deliberate and according to their vision.
The firsts in both cases have no soul. It's not deliberate.
The seconds have soul because it's deliberate and carefully crafted to the artist's vision.
I installed Windows 11 on my PC.
I did not install any drivers, only whatever Windows Update installed.
Wi-Fi works. Bluetooth did not work.
I'm aware Windows Update installs some basic drivers.
I went and installed a few Bluetooth drivers (took me a few tries to get the correct driver). Bluetooth now works.
I felt uncomfortable with random drivers installed. So I re-installed Windows 11 again from scratch on the same PC and SSD.
After re-installation, I did the Windows Update and I did not install any additional drivers. But both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth works already.
I didn't even install the Bluetooth driver after re-installing... why does it work now and not before?
I have a Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX V2 Rev 1.2
I did a fresh Windows 11 Pro install. Going to Device Manager. Currently it is:
>Driver Provider: Microsoft
Driver Date: 2006-06-21
Driver Version: 10.0.26100.1
I go on the official Gigabyte website for my motherboard.
I see a "AMD Chipset Driver".
Version: 7.12.04.858
Date: Jan 16, 2026
It seems newer but the numbers don't match up (lower than my current version).
Is this the correct motherboard driver to use?
Is this the same as motherboard BIOS drivers version?
Years ago when I built my PC from scratch, I went all out on building a completely silent PC. I hate the humming sound so I went all out no expenses spared. $300 PC case (literally, Dark Base Pro 901), $25 chassis fan (each), zero rpm PSU, Noctua CPU cooler, etc.
It was far quieter than every single other build I made prior, but the GPU had coil whine which I could not eliminate (still disappointed about that). Also if I played graphically intensive games it would get loud (obviously). Nevertheless, it was a much better improvement but not absolute zero silence.
I've moved houses and I realized I could place my PC outside my room.
I used one of these cable floor covers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DQ74C7CX
Which has:
It's great. I close the door and it's completely silent even while playing games. I've finally done it.
Summer's coming up so it's perfect. The PC used to always act like a mini-heater that made the room so hot. Now it's outside. Bonus: outside is a hallway that has far better airflow.
There's only one downside: there's a bathroom nearby my room. So water vapors after a shower may add-on into the airflow.
PC cases have a glass side.
Remove glass, add 20 x 20 MERV filter (fits perfectly). Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FNXS7G9
Why? Well:
Fan configuration:
