Yes, you can even play Breakout on the iPod on the Apple Music 404 webpage.
Settings > About > Hold the centre button until the game appears
Breakout was an easter egg on the original iPod in 2001. I remember playing it! The easter egg is even sweeter because Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs developed the game in the 70s.
The 1976 Atari game was first prototyped and programmed by @stevewoz and assisted by Jobs.

Disney did a very poor job at hiding Cranium Command in 2007 when Wonders of Life 'reopened' as Festival Center
The facade was stripped but partially reused and only curtains 'covered' the queue

Sony’s D-300 arrived in 1972 looking like an ordinary audio cassette. Inside that familiar shell was a different kind of magnetic tape, specially formulated to store computer data.

Wonders of Life looks abandoned as ever on her 37th birthday. I hope a brighter future exists ahead for her.

Will we ever see a long people-eater attraction in the Disney parks again? Because it sure doesn't feel like it. In recent years, Disney has replaced Ellen's Energy Adventure, which was about 37 minutes long, with Cosmic Rewind, which is about 3 minutes. Another example would be the Great Movie Ride, which was about 22 minutes, with Runaway Railway, which is a little under 3.5 minutes.
We still have plenty of longer rides like Spaceship Earth, Living with the Land, Carousel of Progress, and a few others, but those are all older attractions. Anything new is much shorter. I'd love to see some longer attractions again, but I doubt it'll ever happen.

PS5 firmware 14.10 might be the next big one for jailbreakers.
Developers are currently testing new vulnerabilities on 14.10, and some researchers have managed to get further into the system than before.
There are also reports of Debug Settings being accessed on 14.10.
Still, there’s no public jailbreak yet. But things are definitely moving.
