| The Reddit detectives are hard at work decoding Black Mirror: Bandersnatch Posted: 28 Dec 2018 04:09 PM PST  Early in the morning on Friday, December 28th, Netflix slipped its viewers a late Christmas present: a new episode of Charlie Brooker's technological-dystopia anthology series Black Mirror, in the form of an interactive movie called Bandersnatch. Its arrival didn't entirely come as a secret — as far back as October, there were rumors it was on the way — but Netflix has been secretive about the storyline and the scope of the project. Just as Netflix seems to be experimenting with high-profile ad campaigns and wide-scale theatrical releases for award-courting movies like Roma, it's also experimenting with releasing films like Tau or The Cloverfield Project with little to no advance notice, apparently to test what its subscribers will watch... |
| Essential all but confirms it’s making another phone Posted: 28 Dec 2018 03:04 PM PST  The Essential Phone, from Android co-founder Andy Rubin, seemed to have so much unrealized potential — but its journey may be coming to an end. Today, the company has announced (via 9to5Google) that it's discontinuing the device. Droid Life spotted earlier today that the phone is pretty much out of stock, and Essential says it isn't making any more. But as part of that announcement, the company is also confirming something that fans had long hoped to be true: Essential is officially working on a second "mobile product," presumably this rumored tiny phone that uses AI to answer emails and text messages for you. An Essential spokeswoman wouldn't directly confirm to me that its "next mobile product" is a phone, but that's what "mobile... |
| Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is Netflix’s new interactive special that won’t play on everything Posted: 28 Dec 2018 12:47 PM PST  Bandersnatch is Netflix's new interactive, choose-your-own-adventure-style movie that ties into the Black Mirror universe. However, it won't play on every Netflix-enabled device. Bandersnatch was written using Twine, an open-source platform that allows for interactive fiction and narrative-heavy games, but that requires devices with a level of technological sophistication in order to deliver a proper interactive experience. An email from Netflix confirms that Bandersnatch isn't supported on Chromecast, Apple TV, and "some legacy devices." Outdated hardware devices that don't support Netflix software updates — like the PlayStation Vita or Nintendo Wii U — are also unlikely to support Bandersnatch. And it's unlikely your smart microwave... |
| Netflix stops offering in-app subscriptions for new and returning customers on iOS Posted: 28 Dec 2018 12:14 PM PST  Netflix is no longer allowing new customers on iOS to pay for the streaming service directly through an in-app subscription. It's the latest example of a company with a high-profile, essential mobile app ditching Apple's payment system to retain more profits for itself and stop handing the iPhone and iPad maker a cut of every subscription activated within the Netflix app. VentureBeat first reported the change, which Netflix confirmed with a short "we no longer support iTunes as a method of payment for new members" statement. Now, customers will have to begin a subscription through a web browser such as Safari. People who already have an in-app Netflix subscription will be able to continue paying that way — for now — but returning... |

| Dell returns to public stock market after years as private company Posted: 28 Dec 2018 11:40 AM PST  Dell returned to the public market on Friday, ending a long saga that began when CEO and founder Michael Dell took the declining company private in 2013 through a $25 billion buyout with Silver Lake. The next five years saw Dell make gains in cloud computing and the enterprise, and the company's gaming PC division is also a strong performer. Dell opened at $46 on Friday under the NYSE symbol DELL and quickly started trading up. Earlier this year, Dell announced it would become a public company again through a complex arrangement that involved buying back tracking shares for VMware, the software business that Dell owns an 80 percent chunk of. Those shares "were born as part of Dell's complicated deal to buy EMC a few years ago" according... |
| The Verge 2018 tech report card: Twitter Posted: 28 Dec 2018 11:30 AM PST  Twitter may be the most stagnant of the big social networks. The service, which has largely stopped adding users, is more of a static communication and information utility, and 2018 underscored that Twitter leadership wants to keep it that way, even when it proves a double-edged sword. Keeping Twitter at the forefront of news and culture means, as a platform, it hardly ever undergoes any drastic changes. As a result, the company has left its trickiest problems unsolved while giving people who have yet to an open account little reason to ever do so. As a public company, Twitter's lack of user growth — the company seems to have plateaued at around 330 million users — has narrowed its ambitions to performing its... |
| Holmes & Watson’s failure shows how the world is changing for cinematic comedy Posted: 28 Dec 2018 10:47 AM PST  Right now, there's a new Will Ferrell comedy playing on more than 2,000 screens, and yet it's barely attracted any attention or commentary. Trailers for Holmes & Watson, a comic take on Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, starring Ferrell and John C. Reilly, were relatively scant. And pre-release buzz was nonexistent, due in part to Sony refusing to screen the movie for critics. The few critics who dutifully slogged out to theaters to cover the movie's Christmas Day release have no words of encouragement that suggest Holmes & Watson is some overlooked gem. And the box-office take has been dire, with the film earning a bare $9 million in its opening week. Some broad studio comedies flop in their original releases, but later earn an... |
| One of Black Mirror: Bandersnatch’s games is available to play right now Posted: 28 Dec 2018 10:28 AM PST  Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is Netflix's new choose-your-own-adventure interactive special and, in traditional Black Mirror fashion, is full of fun Easter eggs — including giving people the chance to play one of the games featured in the film. Bandersnatch introduces viewers to a fictional game development studio, run by an ambitious leader who wants to turn the company, Tuckersoft, into the "Motown of games." The goal is to produce a series of hit titles that will reward its developers with fame and fortune. One of those games, Nohzdyve, is available to play right now — but there's a twist. Nohzdyve was developed for the ZX Spectrum, a personal computer that was released in Britain in the early 1980s. It's the same time period in which... |
