Screenshot: Sega / SnapCube / KotakuToday in job listings that exude a menacing aura: Sega is looking to hire a Sonic loremaster to keep track of the blue hedgehog’s canon and non-canon antics. If you have a degree in the arts and just so happened to be doomscrolling through the job hiring website, LinkedIn, you might’ve come across a job application from Sega of America for a lore associate manager for the Sonic Team. Yes, Sonic has established lore within its video games, movies, and its low-key slept on comic books. Though many might be scratching their heads at the existence of Sonic lore, one doesn’t simply go fast without having a pre-established reason to. Over the past 31 years of Sonic’s existence, the hedgehog’s lore has involved a plethora of bizarre storylines like him being cuckholded by Shadow after the Hot Topic hedgehog stole his then-girlfriend, Sally, and his often-brought-up smooch with a human, which has been burned into everyone’s memory. So you can see why Sega is in dire need of someone to keep the blue hedgehog’s lore straight.Read More: Sonic Frontiers Is Nostalgic But Tedious, Say CriticsAs the

'How Could You Not Fall For This Place?' – Lampard's Programme Notes

Good evening. Welcome back to Goodison Park for the final time before the World Cup break. With that in mind, while we’re still short of the midway point of the season, it feels like an ideal opportunity to reflect on where we are and the progress we have made, not just in this campaign but in the nine months since I had the privilege of becoming Everton manager. After a period away from management, I always said I would go ‘all-in’ on the next opportunity because, in my opinion, there is no other way to do this job. But in Everton I have found something extremely special.  The rich history and traditions of this club were never lost on me, but coming here and living it first-hand has affected me deeply. The passion of Evertonians, combined with their knowledge and wit; the feeling of such a tight-knit community amongst supporters at Goodison and beyond; sticking together no matter what; the support and appreciation that is shown towards the players and even myself and coaching staff. How could you not fall for this place? There is something very special about Everton. I said recently that I feel like an Evertonian and

LinkedIn Adds Verified Emails, Profile Creation Dates – Krebs on Security

Responding to a recent surge in AI-generated bot accounts, LinkedIn is rolling out new features that it hopes will help users make more informed decisions about with whom they choose to connect. Many LinkedIn profiles now display a creation date, and the company is expanding its domain validation offering, which allows users to publicly confirm that they can reply to emails at the domain of their stated current employer. LinkedIn’s new “About This Profile” section — which is visible by clicking the “More” button at the top of a profile — includes the year the account was created, the last time the profile information was updated, and an indication of how and whether an account has been verified. LinkedIn also said it is adding a warning to some LinkedIn messages that include high-risk content, or that try to entice the user into taking the conversation to another platform (like WeChat). “We may warn you about messages that ask you to take the conversation to another platform because that can be a sign of a scam,” the company said in a blog post. “These warnings will also give you the choice to report the content without letting the sender know.” In
