Sunday’s general election will be the most crucial since Moldova gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. Moscow is doing all it can to divert the country from its European course.If a flood of videos on TikTok is to be believed, the people of Moldova are currently living through a reign of terror.

Once a cover for closeted Hollywood stars and persecuted LGBTQ+ people, lavender marriages got a Gen Z reboot — offering protection, partnership and a new take on marriage in the digital age.Over the past year, a curious trend has been making the rounds on TikTok: Young (and mainly Western) people are proposing marriage to like-minded individuals seeking companionship, stability, as well as shared financial burdens and benefits. Love and/or sex? Not necessary. The term “lavender marriage” resurfaced from obscurity, sparking conversations about the origins of such marriages of convenience, and whether this once covert survival tactic could be repurposed for an era seeing shifting relationship norms.

A lifelong fan of “Tomb Raider,” French gamer Romain Bos was on tenterhooks when an update of the popular video game went online in August. But his excitement quickly turned to anger. The gamer’s ears — and those of other “Tomb Raider” fans — picked up something amiss with the French-language voice of Lara Croft, the game’s protagonist. It sounded robotic, lifeless even — shorn of the warmth, grace and believability that French voice actor Françoise Cadol has given to Croft since she started playing the character in 1996. Gamers and Cadol herself came to the same conclusion: A machine had cloned her voice and replaced her. “It’s pathetic,” says Cadol, who straight away called her lawyer. “My voice belongs to me. You have no right to do that.” “It was absolutely scandalous,” says Bos. “It was artificial intelligence.” AI encroaching ‘everywhere’ Aspyr, the game developer based in Austin, Texas, didn’t respond to e-mailed questions from The Associated Press. But it acknowledged in a post last week on its websit
