| Pinterest wants you to take a deep breath, literally Posted: 22 Jul 2019 05:07 PM PDT  Pinterest isn't your typical social network — for starts, its 250 million users spend their time creating collections of things that make them happy, rather than competing to spread news that might end up making someone sad. But when Pinterest users search the platform for something dreary anyhow, the company doesn't have qualms about stepping in. Today, Pinterest has revealed a new set of "emotional well-being activities" that it will automatically suggest to user who search for phrases that signal that they're undergoing some anxiety or stress or otherwise feeling bad. And yes — one of those exercises, developed in partnership with the Stanford School of Medicine's Brainstorm lab, literally asks Pinterest users to take some deep... |
| Facebook design flaw let thousands of kids join chats with unauthorized users Posted: 22 Jul 2019 03:29 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Facebook's Messenger Kids app is built around a simple premise: children shouldn't be able to talk to users who haven't been approved by their parents. But a design flaw allowed users to sidestep that protection through the group chat system, allowing children to enter group chats with unapproved strangers. For the past week, Facebook has been quietly closing down those group chats and alerting users, but has not made any public statements disclosing the issue. The alert, which was obtained by The Verge, reads as follows:

| Apple reportedly in talks to buy Intel’s 5G modem business for $1 billion Posted: 22 Jul 2019 02:54 PM PDT  Photo: Intel Corporation Apple may be closing in on a deal to buy up Intel's abandoned smartphone modem business for $1 billion, with The Wall Street Journal reporting today that a deal could be announced as early as next week. Intel announced back in April it was exiting the 5G mobile modem business earlier this year after Apple reached a surprise settlement with Qualcomm that would see Apple once again return to using Qualcomm's modems in its phones. Intel CEO Bob Swan went on to clarify that Intel had abandoned the modem business directly because of the Apple settlement — without Apple as a customer, the company concluded that it "just didn't see a path" forward. According to a report from Bloomberg at the... |
| Tesla drops lawsuit against critic after judge asks for evidence Posted: 22 Jul 2019 02:15 PM PDT  Photo by Sean O'Kane / The Verge Tesla has dropped a lawsuit against a prominent short-seller and critic of the company, one it claimed struck an employee with his car, according to paperwork filed on Friday night with the Alameda County Superior Court. The company's decision to drop the case comes two weeks after the judge asked Tesla to turn over evidence to back up its claims. Tesla says it has video and audio evidence that would do just that. But in a letter to the court on Friday night, a copy of which Tesla provided to The Verge, the company's lawyers disagreed with the judge's order to produce the evidence. Tesla's legal team argued that producing the evidence would expose information about employees involved in the case that was "never intended for public... |
| The Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Con drift problem, explained Posted: 22 Jul 2019 01:27 PM PDT  Photo by James Bareham / The Verge Nintendo Switch owners have been experiencing problems with the console's removable Joy-Con controllers for months, with users reporting weird joystick drifting problems that cause false inputs and have been steadily growing over time as original Switch machines grow older. A recent report by Kotaku shined a light on the Joy-Con drift issue, but if you're looking for more information on the problem, here's the current situation. What is "Joy-Con drift"?Joy-Con drift is an issue that Switch owners have been encountering over the last few months that causes the analog sticks on the controllers to randomly move around and input commands to the console, even when they're not being physically moved. Anecdotally, the issue... |
| New Apple patent filing shows a mixed reality headset that tracks your whole face Posted: 22 Jul 2019 12:57 PM PDT  USPTO Apple has filed a patent for a complex mixed reality headset, potentially including sensors that track users' facial features, eyes, and hands. Variety reported on the patent application earlier today; it was published last week and originally filed in March 2019. It's part of a long string of Apple mixed (or augmented) reality patents, and, like its predecessors, it indicates that Apple is broadly examining how AR might translate from phones to glasses. The "Display System Having Sensors" patent covers a head-mounted display, a collection of cameras and other sensors that track the external environment, and a different set of sensors that track the wearer's eyes. The components all work together to display a virtual 3D image that's... |
| Shane Dawson’s new documentary about Eugenia Cooney is a real moment of growth Posted: 22 Jul 2019 12:31 PM PDT  Shane Dawson/YouTube YouTube can be home to sensational videos, feuds among creators, and a litany of more disturbing content, but creators like Shane Dawson are demonstrating what YouTube could be like if people used their platforms to act more responsibly. His newest video is a one-hour documentary on fellow YouTuber Eugenia Cooney, a creator who left fans concerned when she announced in February that she was taking time away from the internet to work on her health. While Cooney never openly talked about her hiatus, fans voiced their concerns about her weight, with many people asking if she had an eating disorder. She opened up about it for the first time with Dawson, who discussed his own history with an eating disorder. It's an emotional, revealing,... |

| Apple brings Walkie Talkie back to the Apple Watch Posted: 22 Jul 2019 11:22 AM PDT  Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge Apple is today rolling out software updates across iOS, watchOS, and the HomePod as it prepares for much bigger releases with new features coming this fall. The iOS 12.4 release introduces a new "iPhone migration" option that "introduces the ability to wirelessly transfer data and migrate directly from an old iPhone to a new iPhone during setup," according to the update release notes. Apple has already offered a wireless transfer option between iOS devices, but it relies on iCloud for just about everything. The new method transfers a lot of content — app data, device settings, photos, etc. — directly from iPhone to iPhone. Apps must still be downloaded from the App Store after the migration step is complete, however. One significant... |
| What Republicans are getting wrong about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act Posted: 22 Jul 2019 11:20 AM PDT  congress We finally put Vox Media's The Vergecast and The Weeds into one show — and, of course, it's about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Vox senior correspondent and host of The Weeds Matt Yglesias talks to Verge editor-in-chief and host of The Vergecast Nilay Patel to explain what Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act really means and how members of Congress may be misinterpreting it. Below is a lightly edited excerpt of Patel and Yglesias getting into — you guessed it — the weeds on Section 230. You can hear this and more in the latest episode of The Vergecast. Matt Yglesias: I have been hearing more and more from Republican members of Congress about something called Section 230, which they think is a big problem... |
