In case you missed it: our cover of 'Toy Soldiers' has been online since yesterday 🫶. Recorded spontaneously with our Dutch friend Leonie Meijer, simply for the love of music. Stripped back, intimate, and made in the moment.

✨Have you watched it yet? Go to our YouTube channel:

@tldrnews.bsky.social There seems to be an edit issue with "Has the Far-Right Peaked in Europe?" on Nebula, At the very end it seems to have a few seconds of an earlier segment before seeing the end title card.

@dmc-ryan.bsky.social RE: New Console Watch video I'm wondering if the old halo engine isn't getting ported to PS5, the new Unreal 5 version working on both may be the way forward. Also maybe they are working on multiplayer in unreal and its not ready yet.

I've noticed that AI Chatbots (Especially ones related to coding) Have hit the bait & switch stage where they are severely limiting amount of use on the £20/month equivalent now that people are starting to depend on them & they are trying to force people to upgrade to £100+/month to continue using.

Every year we make a video explaining:
- where we really earn our money from
- what we spend that money on
- if we even made a profit

It's time to be transparent again, and reveal our finances for 2024/25

Having a smart watch has its drawbacks. I get a new SMS and swipe up the screen to see the message, and instead it automatically replies with "Hello, how are you". Not a good way to prevent spam messages!

@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com Just had someone turn up at my door with a bomber jacket with Money Expert on it in yellow. I didn't give them the time of day (They looked very nervous and dodgy) but others may mistake them for someone from your team.
