I have to know—are videos/content in the dev environment... placeholders? Or are features and other dev work done with actual porn videos? I realize sometimes one might need get the latest from prod for whatever reason, but surely day-to-day dev work isn't done with videos that—distracting?

In the dev environment we had custom videos uploaded, and I often uploaded my own. Nice kittens and puppy videos and such. Still, the mindgeek office life was mostly the same as any office, except for the porn on half the screens.

As with anything else at one point you get desensitized by the same content, since it was all test data and not live production stuff, it didn't get updated often.
