    I always like fiddling with gsmarena's phone finder when it's time for a new one. And then finding something unexpected on Amazon when checking prices.

    I would imagine that the click farms have plenty of spare capacity to run a scraper process in the background. And that would be easier to sell access to than the alternative.

    My brother's school library had computer magazines, and on one of the discs that he brought home was a copy of Cinema 4D 5.2 SE (I think that was the version).
    And it was a lot of fun, or potential fun because I didn't have any documentation, and I doubt I really had the patience for that.
    This scene is probably the best I could achieve at the time.
    I made all of the models.
    The bin is clearly just a default texture on a cylinder.
    I remember using boolean operations to cut out the solitaire board, and yet I left all the holes filled with marbles.
    It's a pity that getting a good looking liquid was too tricky for me.
    The little toys on the bottom shelf were fun things that I would go on to use in other renders and animations.
