Summary

News has been happening (when hasn't it?) and this week we're rounding up some of the stories that caught our attention in recent days. First, the launch of OpenAI's generative-video product Sora, as we consider what this thing is actually going to be used for, and what sorts of havoc it may wreak. Next, the effects of the EU's Digital Markets Act and the stringent ways that some large platform holders are starting to respond to it (looking at you, Apple). Lastly, the talk out of DICE about the state of the video game business and the likelihood of getting new projects off the ground. Support the Pod!

0:23.3	Yes.
0:25.7	If you grab that thing with your thumb,
0:30.5	before it goes away, you can just jog it up and down with your thumb like a slider until you're happy with volume.
0:32.3	I like that it has the word volume above it, so you know that it's the volume now, too.
0:36.2	Wow.
