| Chevy’s new electric Camaro is the near future of EV drag racing Posted: 04 Nov 2018 11:00 AM PST  GM made a fun surprise announcement at this past week's Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) trade show: an all-electric Chevrolet Camaro concept with 700 horsepower meant to bust out a quarter mile run in about nine seconds. And unlike EV performance cars like the NIO EP9 or the upcoming second-generation Tesla Roadster, which are purpose-built, the Camaro concept appears to be a beautiful, cobbled-together Frankenstein's monster of a car. The car, dubbed the eCOPO Concept (after the original COPO Camaro special order performance models from the late 1960s) looks like any other modern Camaro from the outside, even in electric blue paint. Inside is much different. For instance, the eCOPO is powered by a combination of... |
| Fortnite’s mysterious cube is gone, leaving behind a brand new location Posted: 04 Nov 2018 10:16 AM PST  "Fortnitemares" has come to an end, and it left the world of Fortnite dramatically altered. This afternoon the battle royale game was home to a live, one-time-only in-game event, which marked the end of the monster-filled Halloween mode and introduced a number of changes to the game. More than 1 million people watched the event happening in real-time on Twitch alone. It all started when the game's mysterious, purple cube disappeared. First, it starting melting, dripping something into the lake it hovered over. Then the cube began pulsating and spinning rapidly, before it eventually disappeared — and pulled players into a strange, brightly-lit realm. There, you couldn't do much but float and watch a strange butterfly fluttering about. |
| Steven Yeun on Burning, The Walking Dead, and changing roles for Asian-Americans Posted: 04 Nov 2018 10:00 AM PST  For fans of The Walking Dead, Steven Yeun is a familiar face — he played fan-favorite character Glenn Rhee over the course of six years and seven seasons of the show, in the process earning a fandom and rapidly kickstarting a widely varying acting career. Asian-American actors often struggle to find roles that don't fall into simple, predictable stereotypes, but Yeun has kept things complicated, playing a conflicted animal-rights activist in Bong Joon-ho's Netflix weird fable Okja, a confident union agitator in Boots Riley's Sorry to Bother You, and lone-wolf pilot Keith in the animated series Voltron: Legendary Defender. Yeun's latest film, Burning, adapts the 1992 Haruki Murakami story "Barn Burning," about an awkward Japanese outsider... |
| Jolted is a deep dive into a school shooting that didn’t happen Posted: 04 Nov 2018 09:00 AM PST  There are a ton of podcasts out there, but finding the right one can be difficult. In our column Pod Hunters, we cover what we've been listening to that we can't stop thinking about. Just two days after the deadly school shooting at the Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida, authorities in Vermont arrested 18-year-old Jack Sawyer, who told a friend that he planned to commit a similar shooting at his former high school. The revelation had a bombshell effect on the state: Republican governor Phil Scott eventually signed three bills that implemented some restrictions on gun ownership in the traditionally gun-friendly state. Earlier this fall, Vermont Public Radio released a five-part podcast called Jolted that delved into the... |
| Why Guillermo del Toro’s attention to detail makes his movie monsters stand out Posted: 04 Nov 2018 08:54 AM PST  Guillermo del Toro is behind some of cinema's most inventive and visually-pleasing genre films in recent years — Pan's Labyrinth, Pacific Rim, Hellboy, and The Shape of Water all enjoy stunning costume and set design that complement their stories and which stand out from the rest of what you might see in theaters. A new video from YouTuber Kristian Williams, (aka kaptainkristian) explores why the filmmaker's movie monsters are so memorable, especially in an age when CGI is so prevalent. A key reason for why del Toro's films are so memorable is the attention to detail and effort put into the design of his characters, and how they interact with their surroundings. In Pan's Labyrinth, Williams notes that the faun complements his... |
| Apple’s new MacBook Air faces strong Windows and iPad competition Posted: 04 Nov 2018 08:00 AM PST  Steve Jobs changed the world of laptops 10 years ago when he introduced the MacBook Air by removing it from a tiny paper office envelope. It was a moment that shocked the audience at Apple's Macworld 2008 keynote, and sent shockwaves through the entire PC market. Apple created a wedge shaped laptop that at its thickest part was still thinner than the thinnest part of the Sony TZ Series — one of the thinnest laptops back in 2008. No other PC maker had anything that could compete, and it took years for the PC market to find an answer. Apple's MacBook Air from 10 years ago signaled a new era for laptops, but the company's latest refresh, unveiled earlier this week, shows how the competition has caught up. While the original MacBook Air... |
| Elon Musk shows off the Boring Company ‘disturbingly long’ LA tunnel in a short video Posted: 04 Nov 2018 07:33 AM PST  In October, Elon Musk said that the Boring Company's proof-of-concept tunnel in LA will open to the public on December 10th. Last night, he said on Twitter that the opening is still on track, and posted a video of his walk down the entire length of the tunnel. The sped-up video takes just over 30 seconds, and shows off the two-mile-long tunnel that Musk describes as "disturbingly long." — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 3, 2018 Construction on the tunnel began over a year ago, and extends from SpaceX's Hawthorne, California headquarters, to an LA suburb. Since then, the Boring Company has been selected to build tunnels for Chicago and Washington DC, and has sketched out plans to build a larger network of... |
| Motorola’s notched Android One smartphone is coming to the US for $399 Posted: 04 Nov 2018 07:00 AM PST  Motorola today announced that it's bringing the Motorola One to the United States a few months after the Android One phone launched internationally. It will be available exclusively from Best Buy for $399; you'll be able to order it online (in black) beginning November 9th or find it in stores (in white) as of November 11th. The One is sold as a GSM-unlocked device, so it'll work on AT&T and T-Mobile, but not Verizon or Sprint. The Motorola One has a look that's very similar to Apple's iPhone X, featuring a notched 5.9-inch display (720x1520). The device's "chin" is big enough for Moto to stamp its logo on. The rest of the One's spec sheet is also on the mid-range side: you get a Qualcomm 625 processor, 64GB storage (with microSD), 4GB... |
| Apple’s 2019 iPhones may feature an upgraded Face ID camera Posted: 04 Nov 2018 06:20 AM PST  A new report from noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that Apple's 2019 iPhone offerings will come with an upgraded Face ID camera system. Kuo, (via MacRumors) says that he believes that Apple will utilize a new sensor that will better illuminate one's face "to lower the impacts from visible lights of environment in order to improve the Face ID user experience." The report also suggests that Apple might introduce another range-sensing system with a Time of Flight 3D camera in its 2019 or 2020 iPads (potentially with the 2020 iPhones. This type of sensor measures the time in which a light dot travels between the camera and subject, and could be used to capture 3D images. The system could potentially be used for augmented reality... |
| Now that the crowd is here, the fun can begin in MapleStory 2 Posted: 04 Nov 2018 06:00 AM PST  I couldn't decide if I wanted to play MapleStory 2 when it was released globally in October. I had eagerly anticipated it since its South Korean launch in 2015, but now that it was here, I needed to see if my friends and boyfriend — whom I met in the original MapleStory — wanted to join, so that I would have a guild and people to party up with on quests. It wasn't long before they seemed bored by it. During the beta testing phase this May, hardly anyone was approved to be a beta tester, so the worlds of Maple were lonesome. Then in the weeks leading up to MapleStory 2's global launch, nobody said a word in my Discord channel. Nobody, it seemed, cared. That included me — I planned to spend this winter getting comfy with my PS4, trying... |
