To begin, because I feel I have to preface the article with this. The headline is not a joke, and no, it’s definitely not April Fools Day. Bruce Willis, Hollywood Superstar, has indeed sold his likeness to US firm, Deepcake, who, as advertised on the front page of their website offer “Brand Endorsement Videos with Celebrities and Influencers“, going on to state “We make Digital Twins of people you won’t tell from real“....

Robert Burns, born 25 January 1759, will forever be regarded as Scotland’s national poet. It is said that nobody understood the character of the nation better than he, and since 1801 his life and works have been celebrated north of the border on Burns Night with dancing, whisky, recitals of his poems, and the traditional meal of haggis neeps & tatties.

This review contains spoilers. 9.2 Mr Jingles This is one of the most common problems in a slasher movie: there aren’t enough people to kill to fill the film’s running time. Kills tend to be front-loaded or back-loaded, with a bit of a flabby portion in the middle where nobody’s getting killed, or the kills are coming too slowly to justify the existence of the crazed slasher. 1984 bucks that trend almost immediately....

Apex Legends developer Respawn is exploring “what [it] can do” about “visual clutter” in the fan-favourite first-person shooter. Boasting fluid gunplay and a distinctive artistic style, free-to-play battle royale Apex Legends is a fan-favourite, but some players purport that the game’s HUD has become increasingly cluttered, particularly when they’re under attack in-game.
