This week delivers one of the biggest news drops of the year across PlayStation, Xbox, and the wider gaming industry. We break down PlayStation's massive Black Friday 2025 deals, including $100 off PS5 consoles (Standard, Digital, and Pro), major discounts on PSVR2, PlayStation Portal, DualSense controllers, Pulse headsets, and more. We also cover the huge PlayStation Plus sale, plus deep cuts on hundreds of digital PS5 and PS4 games—just in time for holiday shopping. But that's only the start. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is stumbling hard out of the gate. UK physical sales are down 61% compared to Black Ops 6, Steam concurrency is far below expectations, and Activision appears to be quietly hiding player-count data. We look at what's causing the drop—AI art controversy, campaign reception, franchise fatigue—and what it means for Call of Duty going forward. We also dive into the Game Awards 2025 nominations, where indies dominate the field. With Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Hades 2, and Hollow Knight: Silksong going head-to-head with Death Stranding 2, Donkey Kong Bananza, and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, this year's GOTY race might be the most competitive ever. Meanwhile, an Xbox insider claims PlayStation is pulling back from PC releases, contradicting earlier reports of day-and-date launches. With Steam Machines, cross-buy rumors, and shifting exclusivity strategies across the industry, we break down what's real—and what's noise. Plus rapid-fire FLASH NEWS: – Mafia: The Old Country gets a major free update – PS5 Welcome Hub adds stats, seasonal backgrounds & new widgets – VatiVidya announces an official Elden Ring lore book – Twisted Metal renewed for Season 3 – A massive Ghost of Yōtei update arrives next week with New Game+, new vendors, new cosmetics, replayable content, stat tracking, armor upgrades, Photo Mode enhancements, accessibility options, and more If you love PlayStation, industry analysis, and real-time gaming news breakdowns, this episode is absolutely packed.
What happens when a founder who built a billion dollar company during a global crisis steps into the centre of industrial AI and begins reshaping how entire organisations think and work? That question sat at the heart of my conversation with Somya Kapoor, CEO of IFS Loops, recorded live on the show floor at IFS Industrial X Unleashed. Somya's journey carries a level of grit and perspective that shines through every answer. She shared how surviving the Gulf War as a child shaped her instinct to take on the hardest problems in technology. That mindset not only guided her early career at SAP, ServiceNow, and other enterprise giants, it also laid the foundation for Loops, the agentic platform she co-founded in 2020 with a simple scribble on a notepad that eventually grew into one of the most significant acquisitions in the IFS ecosystem. Her stories about early rejections, the wave of scepticism around AI in the early days, and the first customer conversations held on Zoom during lockdown reveal the human side behind a platform many now take seriously across the industrial world. Across the episode, Somya explained in plain terms what makes IFS Loops so different. The platform connects data across systems using natural language, helps redesign processes that used to be locked inside individual applications, and introduces digital workers that remove the grunt work from everyday operations. She brought the technology to life with examples that landed with real clarity. From supplier order handling to complex field service tasks, and the now famous Kodiak Gas case where thousands of hours were saved each year, she showed how agentic workflows change what is possible for industrial companies who have spent decades wrestling with fragmented data and rigid processes. We also talked about the importance of keeping people at the centre of AI driven change. Somya was clear that amplification, not replacement, is the story that matters. The shift requires new skills, new supervision models, and a thoughtful approach to adoption. Her reflections on change management, the energy she felt from customers at the event, and the speed at which leaders now want to move painted a picture of an industry that feels very different from the early days of AI excitement. The hesitation has faded. Curiosity has taken over. Action is starting to follow. Somya closed with a message aimed at every leader who might still be watching from the sidelines. The technology is real, adoption is accelerating, and the window to learn, experiment, and adapt is narrowing. She believes this is the moment for teams to decide whether they want to lead or be led by others who are moving faster. As you listen to this conversation, I'd love to hear what stood out for you. Do you feel the same shift in confidence and urgency around industrial AI that Somya described? Let me know your thoughts.

Bicycle touring numbers feel like they're down—fewer loaded panniers on the road, Adventure Cycling Association facing major financial headwinds, and a lot of long-time tourers quietly aging out. But is touring actually in decline, or is it just shifting into something that looks different—like bikepacking, gravel, and shorter, more flexible trips? In this episode I dig into Adventure Cycling's recent membership and financial update, talk through generational and economic trends, and explore whether we're seeing the end of an era… or just the end of one version of it. Is Bicycle Touring in Decline? What the ACA Letter Tells Us Recent email to ACA membership on a vote regarding selling their building in Missoula Membership down from almost 40,000 in 2023 to about 18,000 today. Donations down. Demand for guided tours has softened. Sales of maps/routes have dropped with free digital tools and GPS routes everywhere. Their diagnosis Members aging out of cycling. Some people don't feel enough value in a paid membership. Travel patterns are changing; inflation and costs are up; maybe fewer people committing to long guided tours. The building sale piece: ACA can sell their big, underutilized Missoula headquarters for ~$2.55M, then lease back just the space they need. The goal is to buy a "runway" of a few years to rebuild membership and modernize programs (digital experience, routes, tours, events). This is serious—membership halving in a couple of years is not a blip. But this is one institution. It's a single data point, not the whole story. Is ACA's Crisis Proof That Touring Is Dying? Possible "touring is in trouble" interpretation: If the biggest U.S. touring org is shrinking, maybe demand really is falling. Fewer people willing to pay for routes, maps, and guided tours could indicate less interest in traditional loaded touring. Alternative explanations: Value perception problem: If you can download GPX routes for free, people might not feel like they need a membership. Younger riders may not connect with a membership model or a print magazine in the same way. Business model problem vs. touring problem: Guided tours and paper maps are specific products. Those can decline even if DIY touring thrives. If a streaming-era kid doesn't buy DVDs, it doesn't mean movies are dead—just that the business model changed. Same question here: is ACA Blockbuster, or are movies in trouble? The Aging Out Effect The ACA explicitly mentions aging out of cycling. Talk through generational dynamics: A lot of classic touring energy came from the boomers and older Gen X. Long, multi-week tours require time, health, and often retirement or very flexible work. People aging out doesn't necessarily mean the activity is dying, but: If younger generations aren't replacing those numbers, you get a visible decline. Touring can look intimidating: expensive gear, big time commitments, safety fears. Possible barriers for younger riders: Student debt, unstable housing, fewer long chunks of vacation, higher baseline anxiety around traffic and climate disasters (heat, smoke, extreme weather). The Rise of Bikepacking and Off-Road Travel Ttouring may just be changing costume: More folks are drawn to bikepacking and gravel: lighter gear, off-road routes, "adventure" branding. Social media and brands push a certain aesthetic: frame bags, dirt roads, epic photography. Contrast vibes: Classic touring: fenders, racks, panniers, highways, small towns, campgrounds. Bikepacking: singletrack/doubletrack, BLM land, forest roads, more "expedition-y", often shorter but punchier trips. If someone is out for five days with bags on their bike, sleeping outside and moving every day… and we're calling that bikepacking instead of touring… did touring really decline, or did it just get relabeled? Is bikepacking now the umbrella term for bike adventuring? Is It Just a (pardon the pun) Cycle? Historical perspective: There was a big touring boom in the 1970s and again mini-waves around the early 2000s . We thought the 2020 COVID bike boom would impact things, but did it? Outdoor sports often rise and fall with the economy, culture, and media stories. Economic cycle: High inflation, higher travel costs, and general uncertainty can make long trips harder. At the same time, travel has become more fragmented: people take 3-day trips instead of 3-week odysseys. Cultural cycle: Right now, gravel and ultra-events (Unbound, etc.) get the headlines. Touring is slow and unsexy by comparison. Slow unsexy things tend to look "dead" for a while… until the next backlash against all the hype and burnout. We might be in the hangover phase after the COVID bike boom and a big cultural swing toward short, 'epic' experiences. Other Factors That Make Touring Feel Smaller Safety and traffic fears: distracted driving, speed, road rage, social media amplifying every horror story. Climate and weather extremes: heat domes, wildfire smoke, storms—touring has always danced with weather, but now the dice feel loaded. Information overload: paradoxically, infinite online info can make people freeze and not choose any tour. Shift to micro-touring: overnighters, weekend campouts, credit-card touring instead of epic cross-country runs. That looks less visible on the ACA radar but might be the real growth area. What ACA's Plan Signals About the Future Positive outlook: Selling an underused building to buy time to modernize could be a good sign. It's a choice to adapt instead of slowly bleed out. They're explicitly planning to invest in: More routes and route updates Digital and website improvements Stronger advocacy tools Expanded tours and member events The big question: Can an organization built around old touring models reinvent itself for a world of bikepacking, GPS, and dispersed, remote communities? Will they pivot toward being the hub for all forms of bike travel, not just pannier touring? Final Take: Is Touring Actually in Decline? Yes, in the classic sense. Fewer people paying for memberships, maps, and guided pannier tours. The touring demographic that built ACA is shrinking and aging. No, if you widen the definition. Bikepacking, mixed-surface, overnighters, and "ride-to-your-Airbnb" trips are essentially touring by another name. People are still traveling by bicycle; they're just doing it with different gear and routes. Mostly, it's in a messy transition. Legacy institutions and business models are under intense pressure. New formats (digital communities, route-sharing platforms, YouTube, social media) are where a lot of the energy lives now. The story isn't "touring is dying"—it's "touring is migrating." Go on any kind of bike trip—overnight, credit-card, dirt, paved, doesn't matter. Support whichever orgs, creators, or communities actually help them get out the door (ACA, local groups, creators, etc.). If you're an ACA member, vote on the building sale by November 24. Whatever side you land on it seems like this will likely define things for ACA for the next several years. •Bike touring has always been a niche. The question isn't whether the niche survives—it's what form it takes for the next generation. And we all get to shape that.

In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green interviews Bret Kinsella, SVP and GM of Fuel iX, TELUS Digital's GenAI platform. Kinsella explains how TELUS Digital has become a global powerhouse—running large-scale contact centers, building mobile and web apps, powering one of the world's largest AI data-labeling operations, and now delivering generative AI to more than 50,000 TELUS employees and customers. Kinsella highlights a major shift: “AI is actually working—78% of companies have already woven conversational AI into their operations.” He notes that voice AI has rapidly matured, thanks to integrated generative platforms that combine speech-to-text, text-to-speech and reasoning in a single stack, producing far more natural and accurate interactions. TELUS uses these capabilities internally to help retail associates respond instantly to fast-changing device and rate-plan information. Challenges remain—especially noisy environments, complex data that's better shown than spoken, and a lack of interoperability between standards. Kinsella points to frameworks like vCon as the path toward portability and consistency. He stresses that deploying voice AI safely requires security, safety and compliance guardrails, supported by TELUS Digital's Fortify platform, which stress-tests AI systems at scale. And while AI automates mundane tasks, its real purpose is to elevate human performance: “These tools help employees do their jobs better. Once people start using them, they don't want them taken away.” As AI adoption accelerates, TELUS Digital's Fuel iX is built to give organizations trusted, scalable GenAI that improves experiences for customers and employees.

Vivimos rodeados de pantallas que prometen conexión, pero muchas veces nos desconectan del alma. Así que, la integridad digital también revela la madurez espiritual. Por tanto, rinde hoy tu vida tecnológica al Señor Jesús y escribe tus “límites santos” como horarios de uso, lugares sin pantalla y contenido que edifique. Además, instala frenos sencillos así como notificaciones mínimas, filtros adecuados y un compañero de rendición de cuentas para cuidar tu mente. De modo que antes de abrir una aplicación te preguntes: “¿Esto fortalece mi fe, sirve a mi llamado y ama al prójimo?”. Si no, ciérrala; cada cierre es adoración práctica. No obstante, reemplaza el desplazamiento automático con lecturas bíblicas, mensajes de ánimo y oraciones por otros. Así pues, cuando caigas, corre a la gracia y no a la culpa; reinicia con humildad. Incluso tus hábitos digitales pueden glorificar al Señor si los pones bajo Su señorío. De manera que tu huella digital sea testimonio de esperanza y pureza. La Biblia dice en Salmos 101:3: “No pondré delante de mis ojos cosa injusta; aborrezco la obra de los que se desvían; No se adherirá a mí”. (RV1960).

Fresh out of the studio, we commemorated the 10th anniversary of the e-Conomy SEA [Southeast Asia] Report with Sapna Chadha from Google, Florian Hoppe from Bain & Company, and Cassie Wu from Temasek, celebrating a decade of tracking Southeast Asia's digital transformation. The panel reflected on the region's remarkable achievement of reaching $300 billion in GMV—exceeding the original $200 billion goal by 1.5x—alongside revenue growth of 11x over the past decade. The panellists examined pivotal themes including Southeast Asia's position as the world's most AI-curious region with three times more interest than elsewhere, the explosive rise of video commerce and the maturation of digital financial services. The conversation explored the expansion from SEA-6 to 10 ASEAN countries, the ecosystem's resilience through multiple crisis cycles, and the shift from growth-at-all-costs to sustainable profitability. The episode concludes with each panellist sharing their vision for 2030, emphasizing building trust in AI adoption, creating an inclusive AI economy that benefits SMEs alongside large platforms, and navigating the AI transition gracefully to unlock innovation while addressing employment challenges—underscoring Southeast Asia's evolution from digital catch-up player to global innovation leader rewriting the playbook for digital adoption."We set this audacious goal of 200 billion by 2025. People told us we were crazy. In 2016 when we put that ambition out there, we've actually reached 1.5x that and we've hit 300 billion. And so it's just reflective of this incredible economy." - Sapna Chadha"Indonesia e-commerce still I think is larger or about the same size as all of India e-commerce. And yet the attention tends to be a little bit veering away from Southeast Asia, but this is actually a real economic powerhouse I think for all of Asia Pacific." - Florian Hoppe"Southeast Asia as a region, as we think about digital economy adoption, we are not playing catch up anymore. In many ways we're leading the digital adoption. We're writing how digital economy, how digital adoption could look like for a population and demographic like us." - Cassie WuProfiles: Sapna Chadha, Vice President Southeast Asia and South Asia Frontier, Google Asia PacificFlorian Hoppe, Partner at Bain & CompanyCassie Wu, Director, Southeast Asia at Temaseke-Conomy SEA 2025: https://economysea.withgoogle.com/Episode Highlights:[00:00] Quote of the Day by Sapna Chadha, Florian Hoppe & Cassie Wu[01:17] 10th anniversary of e-Conomy SEA Report[03:00] Digital economy hits 300 billion, exceeding goals[04:09] Ecosystem resilience through multiple crisis cycles[06:10] Report expands from SEA-6 to ASEAN-10[08:13] Southeast Asia most underappreciated AI opportunity[09:31] Indonesia e-commerce matches all of India[10:04] Region leading digital adoption, not catching up[12:13] Cash no longer king, payments fully inverted[13:00] Revenue growth 11x over past decade[15:00] 300 billion GMV despite headwinds and tariffs[16:00] Video commerce grew 5x in three years[19:03] Digital payments north of 60% of transactions[23:32] Super apps unique to Southeast Asia ecosystem[25:45] Data center capacity growing faster than anywhere[27:01] Lower labor costs delayed AI adoption initially[31:00] Ecosystem healthier than ever before[33:08] Talent is the critical AI bottleneck[35:19] Digital infrastructure must align with green economy[39:00] Southeast Asia remains globally underappreciated[40:39] Can Southeast Asia leapfrog into AI era[43:00] ClosingPodcast Information: Bernard Leong hosts and produces the show.

When our kids step into the digital world, most of us feel like we're handing them car keys without ever having learned to drive ourselves. In this episode, Danish parenting expert and author Jessica Joelle Alexander returns to share the tool she created when her own daughter started asking for a phone: Raising Digital Citizens conversation cards. Drawing on Denmark's world-leading approach to happiness, character education, and digital well-being, Jessica shows how “digital independence” can become part of their modern rite of passage. Through simple, powerful questions, families learn to talk about safety, scams, manipulation, and trusted adults before a crisis hits, so kids already know what to do and who to go to when something goes wrong. Ginny and Jessica walk through real scenarios kids face every day: a bathroom photo being shared around school, “harmless” pranks that go too far, gaming scams and virtual goods, misunderstood texts and emojis, mean comments, and the pressure to be “always on” with friends. This is a hopeful, practical roadmap for raising kids who are kind, thoughtful, and safe in both the online and real worlds.

Send us a textA sleepless night, a soft prompt, and a flood of relief—the rise of AI therapy and companion apps is rewriting how we seek comfort when it matters most. We explore why these tools feel so human and so helpful, and what actually happens to the raw, intimate data shared in moments of vulnerability. From CBT-style exercises to memory-rich chat histories, the promise is powerful: instant support, lower cost, and zero visible judgment. The tradeoff is less visible but just as real—monetization models that thrive on sensitive inputs, “anonymized” data that can often be re-identified, and breach risks that turn private confessions into attack surfaces.We dig into the ethical edge: can a language model provide mental health care, or does it simulate empathy without the duty of care? We look at misinformation, hallucinated advice, and the way overreliance on AI can delay genuine human connection and professional help. The legal landscape lags behind the technology, with HIPAA often out of scope and accountability unclear when harm occurs. Still, there are practical ways to reduce exposure without forfeiting every benefit. We walk through privacy policies worth reading, data controls worth using, and signs that an app takes security seriously, from encryption to third‑party audits.Most of all, we focus on agency. Use AI for structure, journaling, and small reframes; lean on people for crisis, nuance, and real relationship. Create boundaries for what you share, separate identities when possible, and revisit whether a tool is helping you act or just keeping you company. If you've ever confided in a bot at 2 a.m., this conversation gives you the context and steps to stay safer while still finding support. If it resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who might need it, and leave a review to help others find the show. Support the show
