Pokémon is getting a new cloud service and a game where you play by sleeping

Posted: 28 May 2019 06:28 PM PDT

At an event billed as "a preview of the future of Pokémon," today The Pokémon Company revealed a slate of new experiences, including a robust new cloud service and a plan to turn sleeping into entertainment.

To start, there's a new game launching in 2020 called Pokémon Sleep, where your sleep will impact gameplay. The goal, according to the company, is to give players a reason to look forward to waking up in the morning. The company has also partnered with Nintendo on a new sleep tracking device called the Pokémon Go Plus + that will connect to the popular mobile game, which itself will receive gameplay updates designed around sleep and rest. Other than that, there aren't a lot of details on the device just yet, nor the game itself.

Twin River is Intel’s attempt to build a dual-screen laptop out of fabric

Posted: 28 May 2019 06:00 PM PDT

Intel's wild Honeycomb Glacier prototype wasn't the only one we saw in its Santa Clara labs. Today, we're also giving you a first glimpse at another idea that you might see in your future dual- or flexible-screen laptop: a chassis made largely out of fabric.

This is Intel's Twin River, and it's remarkable not only for the amount of prototyping that went into figuring out how to wrap a pair of 12.3-inch, 1920 x 1280 touchscreen displays in that polyester, polyamide, and lycra textile combination, but also how much power it managed to retain inside that frame.

Intel says it managed to fit a full quad-core, 15-watt Intel U-series processor inside this fanless chassis without overheating, because it's constructed an incredibly thin vapor...

An exclusive look at Intel’s wild gaming laptop prototype

Posted: 28 May 2019 06:00 PM PDT

If I'm being honest, the phrase "Honeycomb Glacier" makes me think of a frosty dessert with a crunchy bee-produced treat on top, not a concept gaming PC.

But standing in a semi-secret lab deep inside Intel's Santa Clara headquarters, I can't help but think it's the most convincing argument ever made for a beefy laptop with two screens.

You may know that chipmakers like Intel don't just produce processors — they spend big bucks building new markets for those chips by figuring out what people want in their next computer and working with PC manufacturers to make those new features a reality. Sometimes, they build entire example PCs for the industry to crib, like we saw firsthand when Intel's dual-screen Tiger Rapids prototype became the...

Intel is trying once again to make modular computers happen

Posted: 28 May 2019 06:00 PM PDT

Intel is introducing a new device called the "NUC Compute Element." It's a slightly updated spin on a new idea: put the core guts of a computer into a modular element that can be easily slotted into other devices to upgrade them when the time comes. It's not a bad idea, either. Think of a kiosk: the touchscreen will probably be good for years, but the computer that powers it will likely need to be updated more often.

It's such a good idea, Intel has tried it before. Earlier this year, Intel bailed on the Compute Card, which was literally the same idea but in a different body. Intel never even made it to a second generation of the Compute Card.

A spokesperson...

Twitter is looking to hire a ‘master in the art of Twitter’ to become its Tweeter in Chief

Posted: 28 May 2019 04:19 PM PDT

Among the most frequent criticisms leveled at Twitter's upper management is that those in charge fundamentally misunderstand the platform, what it does best, and the myriad ways it fails its users daily. That can best expressed through the approach the company, and in particular its CEO Jack Dorsey, takes in attempting to fix its issues, be it white nationalists organizing on the platform or inconsistent enforcement policies around harassment and hate speech.

Often, Dorsey pledges in press interviews and on his personal account to work harder on solving Twitter's biggest problems, only for those solutions to ultimately manifest as benign and largely meaningless user interface tweaks — effectively Band-Aids on bullet wounds.

But another...

Lawsuit claims Apple violated privacy laws by revealing iTunes listening data

Posted: 28 May 2019 02:29 PM PDT

Three iTunes users are suing Apple for allegedly disclosing their listening habits to advertisers. The users, who hail from Rhode Island and Michigan, claim Apple violated laws protecting records of entertainment purchases in those states. They're seeking class-action status alongside other state residents, saying Apple has "disregarded its legal responsibilities to these individuals" by revealing personal information.

The lawsuit claims that Apple has released personal listening information directly to third parties while also granting app developers access to iTunes libraries through the Media Player framework. It draws on specific public criticism of Apple's privacy practices, as well as the general availability of private user data...

Twitch is temporarily suspending new creators from streaming after troll attack

Posted: 28 May 2019 01:57 PM PDT

People watching a Fast and Furious movie.

Twitch has disabled the ability for new accounts to live stream following an attack from trolls that flooded one section of the site with pornography, illegal content, and hateful imagery.

The move comes as Twitch's team tries to stop bad actors from abusing its system and flouting rules around copyrighted and illegal video. A statement from Twitch's support team sent out via Twitter specifies the "safety of our community is our top priority and we're doing everything we can to restore all access as quickly as possible."

The streaming service's Artifact category was brigaded all weekend by trolls, who reportedly first fled to the section as a way of joining in on a recent...

Archer is weirder than ever in season 10’s episodic space adventure

Posted: 28 May 2019 01:32 PM PDT

Archer debuted in 2009 as a sort of animated fusion between James Bond and The Office. Adam Reed's FX show chronicled the misadventures of titular superspy Sterling Archer (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) as he deals with covert international missions and, more significantly, HR, accounting, and working for his mother at ISIS, the International Secret Intelligence Service.

But when real-world events caught up with Archer and being an ISIS agent wasn't a laughing matter anymore, Reed reinvented the show. The writers largely abandoned the office setting in favor of a series of themed seasons that got progressively stranger after Sterling was put into a coma at the end of a season 7 plot paying tribute to the 1950 film-noir classic Sunset...

How streaming affects the lengths of songs

Posted: 28 May 2019 01:31 PM PDT

Switched on Pop hosts Charlie Harding and Nate Sloan join Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel to unpack how technology is changing the distribution, production, and sound of popular music.

Here is an excerpt of songwriter Charlie Harding and musicologist Nate Sloan explaining why songs are getting shorter in the streaming era.

This interview has been lightly edited for clarity.

Nilay Patel: Obviously streaming services are everywhere. Algorithmic playlists are everywhere, the album as we know it is falling apart and the forces of the universe are taking hold. Songs are getting dramatically shorter over time. When you ask, "What did technology do to music?" this is such a concrete thing to point to. Songs have decreased in length by...

Amazon sold someone a Moto Z4 before Motorola has even announced it

Posted: 28 May 2019 12:16 PM PDT

Amazon's getting a little ahead of itself with Motorola's upcoming Moto Z4. The phone maker hasn't formally announced its latest MotoMod-ready device, but, as noted by Droid Life, that didn't stop Amazon from briefly listing the Z4 on its website and offering it for sale immediately. You know where this is going. Someone managed to order the Moto Z4, and it actually showed up in the mail, complete with a 360-degree camera MotoMod that Motorola will apparently be tossing in for free alongside the phone.

According to Amazon's listing, the Moto Z4 features a 6.4-inch OLED screen at a resolution of 2340 x 1080. Underneath it is an in-display fingerprint reader. Powering the Z4 is Snapdragon's 675 processor, which is newer than the 670...
