He better not have overdone it with the Scottish accent. Some of us non-native speakers would love to get a grasp of what he's saying.

(Yes, I've spoken to native Scots before. Yes, I had a hard time understanding them.)

Well the Gaelic folk are the ones you need to watch out for, they're worse than us.

I didn't really mean native Scots for the whole thing, I just hope he's added a few slang phrases in there to represent ;)

Like "Aye that PS3 sucks, I was trying to setup a match with the crew and it didnae know what is was doin. Pure laggin and naw wanting to connect right like." :p

Nah, he was fine. You'll probably have more trouble understanding me :rofl:

I had no issues at all last time, not that surprising though.

What was a little surprising was quite a few people moaned at you, not one or two. I genuinely thought you were pretty clear! (accent aside) Ah well, those Americans, always moaning about something eh? ;)

Anyone expecting to hear Grounds Keeper Willie will be disappointed :p I don't have the strong stereotypical highland accent and I'm not one for slang (at least I don't think I used any in the podcast). Maybe I'll throw in some next time :laugh:

I think people will struggle with how fast I talk if anything. In fact, almost definitely. I talk really fast in person so its hard for me to slow it down and I end up making mistakes more often than not. Nerves don't help :p

edit: aw man just listening to it now, do not like hearing my voice at all lol

No one does, working in a call centre numbed me to it though.

I used to have to sit and listen to 30 min - 1 hour calls done by myself. Often with someone else (like my team leader) sitting with me.

Made me want to put forks in my eyes, the amount of **** you say subconsciously over the space of a timeframe like an hour is horrifying at times.

Oh yeah, if you have the podcast is listenable format it should be released. Weekend confirmed! (haha totally stole that from ListenUP :p)

It might be available tonight, it may not be. I think Larry is quite busy at the moment, but I'm sure he'll have it online as soon as he gets chance.

Patience is a virtue.

Any news on the release?

:)

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
