League of Legends dev Riot Games is officially under investigation for discrimination

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 05:48 PM PDT

The developer of the popular League of Legends game has been facing down allegations and lawsuits over what's reportedly a toxic workplace culture, culminating in a mass walkout when the company tried to force two women into arbitration instead of having their day in court. But it now appears that the State of California has been quietly investigating the game developer as well — and that Riot hasn't been playing ball.

The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing just announced (via Kotaku) that it's attempting to legally force Riot to cough up employee pay data so it can see whether Riot is paying women less than men, because Riot has refused to provide that data voluntarily.

The surprising part, of course, is that we had no...

Everything we think we know about the Pixel 4, from Google’s Pixel 4 reveal

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 05:00 PM PDT

Google decided to jump ahead of leakers today and post a very early photo of the Pixel 4. It's a basic shot, just showing the back of the phone, but there's a lot we can tell just by looking at it: it confirms this will be the first Pixel with dual rear cameras, it confirms that Google is significantly changing the Pixel's design language, and it offers a handful of other details about what to expect from the phone.

Here's what we can see so far.

Dual cameras

Let's start with the biggest one: there are two cameras very clearly positioned in the middle of that bulbous square popping out of the back of the phone. Google has made a point in recent years of differentiating the Pixel by sticking with a single rear camera, yet still managing...

Ford will test new third-generation self-driving cars in Detroit

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 02:57 PM PDT

Ford is expanding on-road testing of its third-generation self-driving Fusion Hybrid to Detroit. The vehicles are already deployed in Pittsburgh, Palo Alto, Miami, Washington DC, and Ford's home turf of Dearborn, Michigan; The Verge's Andrew Hawkins went for a drive in a previous-gen model last year and found it quite adept at handling a variety of traffic scenarios.

"Every city represents a unique opportunity to make our self-driving system smarter because of the exposure to different road infrastructure design, driving behavior and even traffic light placement," wrote Peter Rander, president of Argo AI, the startup that Ford has backed to lead development of its self-driving cars. "The collective knowledge we're gaining by operating in...

Samsung patent shows rollable phone displays

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 02:52 PM PDT

Samsung is still figuring out how to release its futuristic Galaxy Fold, which is plagued with durability issues and without a release date. But that hasn't stopped it from dreaming up new phone designs, including a compelling patent for a phone with a rollable display.

This patent, pointed out by Gizmodo, shows off a phone that appears fairly traditional at a first glance. But it's actually hiding a secret rollable display inside, and the top housing containing the selfie camera and earpiece seems able to extend outward from the phone, making for a screen that's going off the charts when it comes to aspect ratio.

The phone in the patent looks vaguely like the BlackBerry Priv, except instead of exposing a handy QWERTY keyboard, you get...

Google and Apple are ushering in an era of ugly square phone cameras

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 02:35 PM PDT

Google's official reveal of the Pixel 4's design confirmed the leaks: much like Apple's rumored iPhone 11, the Pixel 4 is set to feature a massive, square-shaped camera module on the back. With both Apple and Google now on board, it seems that giant, postage-stamp-sized camera bumps are officially set to be the latest design indignity that smartphone owners will be forced to suffer.

The iPhone 11 (or whatever Apple ends up calling it) and Pixel 4 didn't invent the giant camera bulge — not even in recent times, as the Huawei Mate 20 Pro shows:

Nokia in particular was once known for it on its Nokia N8 and PureView models, promising that the...

Samsung’s Galaxy S10 5G is coming to AT&T on June 17th

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 01:45 PM PDT

AT&T is launching its first true 5G phone, the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, on June 17th. Though, don't get too excited; you'll only be able to get your hands on one if you're part of AT&T's developer program, or are an AT&T Business customer.

The 5G-ready phone, which first debuted last month for Verizon subscribers who live in cities that support its 5G service, will cost business users $999. It will also be made available to developers for free at AT&T's Shape conference in Los Angeles on June 22nd. Today's announcement makes makes no mention of when consumers will be able to get their hands on Samsung's phone, or how much it will cost when, or if, it does. It's possible that the Galaxy Note 10 could be first 5G-ready device to be publicly...

Syfy is developing a Krypton spinoff based on Lobo

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 01:23 PM PDT

Tonight, the Syfy Channel will premiere the second season of its Superman-related series Krypton, featuring a bunch of new villains, including one long-standing DC villain: Lobo. Ahead of that premiere, the Syfy Channel says that it is developing a spinoff series featuring the interstellar bounty hunter.

Like Krypton, Lobo will be written and produced by Cameron Welsh, and will feature the character that'll pop up during this season. The violent and foul-mouthed alien bounty hunter first appeared in 1983, and appears for the first time (in the form of Glen Martin) in a live-action production with Krypton.

As our reviewer Samantha Nelson noted, this new season of Krypton feels as though it's unrestrained after a claustrophobic first...

New Stranger Things mobile game will feel familiar to Pokémon Go players

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 12:38 PM PDT

Finnish developer Next Games is partnering with Netflix for a Stranger Things mobile game that should appeal to Pokémon Go fans.

Simply called Stranger Things, the '80s cartoon-inspired game is described as a location-based puzzle RPG. Players will be able to walk around the Upside Down and "work with fellow fans to fight back its emerging evils," according to a press release. Next Games is using Google Maps integrations so players can explore their own neighborhood with friends.

"Our core focus will be to deliver on Stranger Things' rich and intense themes like friendship and supernatural adventure, and translate these into snack-sized entertainment on your mobile device," Teemu Huuhtanen, CEO of Next Games, said in a press release.

You can now use an Android phone as a physical security key for two-factor authentication on iOS

Posted: 12 Jun 2019 11:58 AM PDT

Google is expanding the ability to use an Android phone as a physical two-factor authentication security key to include iOS devices (the feature previously launched in April, but only worked with Chrome OS, macOS, or Windows 10), as noted by 9to5Mac.

Due to limitations on how iOS works, the process is slightly different here: instead of using Chrome to communicate with the device (as used for the PC versions), the Android phone links up with Google's Smart Lock app instead.

The net result is that once it's all set up, when you log into your Google account on an iOS device, the app is able to ping the Android phone over Bluetooth. Then, users can confirm that they are, in fact, the one trying to log in on the Android...
