A call for urgency is a fundamental aspect of online scams. They make you panic with a deadline, so you don’t look too closely at the details.

Anyway, what do people think of Infantino’s proposal for the future of @FIFAcom?

Did that interviewer just ask that Canada player about his dead daughter!? What an incredibly insensitive thing to bring up during their celebrations of the game. Jesus Christ, please tell me I misheard/misunderstood #WorldCup #RSAvsCAN @ITV @FIFAcom #FIFAWorldCup

Such a shame @SpotifyUK don’t do a cheap sub for car use only. I’m not paying full price for Spotify when I only use it in the car, and not in every trip. £5pcm for a car-only offering, id be tempted. Hurry up @Tesla - get CarPlay out. Let me know if you need a beta tester

Let me be clear: there’s nothing wrong with seeing a funny AI video and saying “this AI video is funny”. Feel free to watch AI videos for entertainment. It’s no different to watching bugs bunny clips, or a comedy sketch. That’s not the problem.

The problem is people being unable to identify AI content (or unwilling to learn). If you cannot identify AI content (or refuse to listen to people telling you it is) you get lulled into a world where you don’t question what you are seeing.

If you can’t identify real from fake, you’re going to see content from people set on manipulating your opinions to suit their agenda (eg showing videos of politicians doing illegal things). If you can’t tell fact from fiction, you’ll fall for anything. And it WILL be weaponised.

Well… some of it’s here. Seem to have my original pledge, but the extra items I added post-campaign are not in the box. Are they being shipped separately?

Nm. The second box arrived today. Looks like they shipped together, but only the first left the warehouse initially.

I wish @GOGcom would do a Phantom Liberty package that includes a PS redemption alongside the PC addon, for less than buying both individually. Would really sell the cross-progression dream.

Does anyone else find that the Irish Female #Siri often slurs the “S” at the beginning of words? @Apple

Dammit. Creased the corner of my @Astropad RPP!

You know what be really cool @Apple? A local, ad-hoc vox network with #AirPods. Think conversation boost but directly into each participants AirPods. And without the need to face the person talking.

Quick tap in/out functionality (bonus points if you make it open for other brands to hook into). Shortish range (maybe only Bluetooth type distance). Each device dampens ambient audio for the listener, and broadcasts what its wearer is saying to the network.

Hell, you could even hook live translations into it. Instead of my device listening and trying to pick up the audio to translate, it can just take the broadcast audio and feed it directly into the translation.
