This new law in the country takes on a whole new level of privileges when it comes to businesses’ employees. While workers do and sacrifice a lot, it’s mostly the boss that comes up on top and having to do a tad less. Well not anymore! This new law will help employees make sure they wrap up on time and don’t have to spend extra hours being unpaid!

The new law will be called the “The Right to Disconnect” rule. From next month, civil officials in the country will have the option of ignoring work-related contact when they are not on hours of their shifts.

For the Greater Good

These principles are set to be made law in order to combat ‘excessive work stress and burn-out,’ according to the memo, which was written by the Green Party’s Minister of Civil Service and Deputy Prime Minister Petra De Sutter. They may eventually be rolled out to workers in both the public and private sectors. This can mean less stress and less dispute between coworkers, bosses and employees. A possible win-win situation for the country of Belgium and can be the start of something really progressive in the future.

We all believe traveling to Wakanda would be amazing. Wakanda appears to be an awesome experience, but the chances of going there are the same as those of going to Asgard, which means that these places don’t actually exist. Despite this, over a thousand individuals have searched for “Flights to Wakanda” on Google in the month since the movie’s release.

Surprising Numbers

Luke Cope, a Twitter user, brought attention to this fact by sharing a graph illustrating the rise in Google searches in November 2022. Perhaps more concerning is the fact that travelers have been looking for flights to Wakanda continuously throughout the year.

What Else Happened

But if Wakanda were genuine, I’m sure the tourism bureau would be overjoyed with the response. Some Wakanda fans may be unhappy to learn that the country is fictitious, while others have been let down by some of the film’s more intriguing scenes.

Be sure you check out the insane stats of Luke Cope right here!

Still with Massive Debt, Amber Heard Decides to Sue Insurance Company

The actress, who was convicted of defamation for an op-ed she penned in 2018, owes her ex-husband, 59, millions of dollars as a result of the high-profile trial she was involved in earlier this year. In an effort to get her $8.3 million debt to Johnny Depp paid off, Amber Heard has filed a lawsuit against her million-pound insurance provider.

A Shocking Decision

Heard is currently counter-suing New York Marine and General Insurance Co. because they claimed they shouldn’t have to pay because she was found guilty of deliberate misconduct. Heard had purchased a policy for $1 million that covered defamation.

The Turnaround

The firm said that the law in California, which states that insurance companies are not required to pay out in the case of “willful acts,” supports its actions. Heard, however, asserted in court documents obtained by TMZ that she signed a “unconditional arrangement” and that as a result, the business is responsible for paying $1 million of her debt.

The brief also states that the court found Depp’s allegations that his ex-piece wife’s was defamatory to be true. It also stated that there was no proof that Depp had any input or participation in his lawyer’s choice to characterize Heard’s claims in this manner. Heard is also contesting the trial’s defamation finding, arguing that the favorable 2020 UK libel verdict ought to have been considered as evidence.

20 Years Later, GTA Vice City Still Has Some of the Best Music in Video Games

The realization that Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is now 20 years old is one of the most nostalgic things you can feel. With video games like Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 and Guitar Hero III, Vice City has remained influential in a lot of gamers’ lives since it exposed us all to some amazing songs.

Hitting Deep

The Vice City music is intense and more than it needs to be, but Rockstar deserves the utmost praise for their efforts. One of the best song collections we’ve ever heard in a video game, has continued to grace our screens and ears. Even if you don’t adore each and every song in Vice City, you can’t deny that Rockstar has created a great atmosphere in-game for missions or if you just want to relax a little.

The Difference

GTA V and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 & 2 – Remastered are more recent games that can easily provide a choice of hundreds. But if you don’t fancy any of the tunes, you can easily turn off the music or put your game on mute.

We didn’t have that luxury in 2002. We had a well-organized playlist with songs and musicians that properly captured America during the 1980’s in Vice City. It’s not too far-fetched to say that Vice City introduced a whole generation to a decade’s worth of music in a way that we all don’t believe any other game or TV program could have.
