| Cloudflare to revoke 8chan’s service, opening the fringe website up for DDoS attacks Posted: 04 Aug 2019 07:29 PM PDT  Photo by Smith Collection/Gado/Getty Images Cloudflare, an online infrastructure service that helps websites mitigate DDoS attacks, will be terminating its service for 8chan following the deadly, white nationalist shooting in El Paso, Texas over the weekend. The owners of 8chan have already been notified that their services will be revoked, opening the site up for potential DDoS attacks that could shut it down entirely. Cloudflare will officially shut down service at midnight Pacific Time tonight. It is not clear whether 8chan's owners have found a new security service to replace Cloudflare. 8chan's owners did not respond to repeated requests for comment. "While removing 8chan from our network takes heat off of us, it... |
| Facebook and Instagram are down for some users around the world Posted: 04 Aug 2019 12:16 PM PDT  Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Facebook and Instagram appear to be experiencing an outage in some parts of the world, with users complaining that they were unable to log in, upload pictures, or update their status. According to DownDetector, the outage appears to have begun just before 10:00AM ET, and the problems appear to have popped up around the United States, Europe, South America, and Asia. We've reached out to Facebook for comment, and will update this post if we hear back. The outage is the latest in a string of major outages for the service around the world. The social media company experienced a major outage in March, as well as two others in April and in July. |
| Black Lightning’s characters will be part of The CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earth crossover event Posted: 04 Aug 2019 11:45 AM PDT  Image: The CW The CW's Arrowverse franchise is getting some new members: characters from its superhero series Black Lightning will be part of a major crossover event Crisis on Infinite Earths, which will see its other DC superhero shows Arrow, Batwoman, The Flash, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, and Supergirl team up this fall. The CW says that show itself won't take part in the crossover event (the existing Arrowverse shows will each contribute an episode), but some of Black Lightning's characters will join the ranks of its other superheroes when the event kicks off in December and January 2020. The CW also announced that the show's third season would debut a bit earlier than expected, on October 7th. The crossover event will be loosely based on the 1985... |
| The CW’s sci-fi show The 100 will end next season Posted: 04 Aug 2019 11:14 AM PDT  Image: The CW The CW's long-running science fiction series The 100 will come to an end with its seventh season, the network announced today during its presentation before the Television Critics Association. The series is the latest of its long-running shows to be canceled, after Arrow, which will come to an end after eight seasons, and Supernatural, which will end with its 15th season next year. The show isn't quite over yet: it's about to close out its sixth season, and will air its final, 16-episode season sometime next year. The series is set centuries in the future, after a nuclear war nearly wiped out life on Earth. The surviving members of humanity set up a habitat in orbit, the Ark, which has become overcrowded. The station's leaders decide... |
| J.W. Rinzler’s The Making of Alien is the definitive story of the classic horror film Posted: 04 Aug 2019 09:00 AM PDT  Photo by Andrew Liptak / The Verge If you're a fan of film history, the benchmark for behind-the-scene film books has been the work of J.W. Rinzler and his series of massive "The Making Of" tomes. Over the last decade, he's written definitive histories behind the productions for the original Star Wars trilogy, the Indiana Jones series and Planet of the Apes. His latest, The Making of Alien, is now out in stores, and is a comprehensive look at how Ridley Scott created the science fiction horror classic. The Making of Alien is an exhaustive overview of the production of the film, featuring pages of concept art, behind-the-scenes photographs, script excerpts, and a detailed narrative that explores how the film's writers, artists, filmmakers, and director created the classic... |
| Traffix is a puzzle game that gives you the complete control of traffic lights you always wanted Posted: 04 Aug 2019 08:00 AM PDT  Infinity Games It can be difficult to find time to finish a video game, especially if you only have a few hours a week to play. In our biweekly column Short Play we suggest video games that can be started and finished in a weekend. In a city builder like SimCity or Cities: Skylines, traffic inevitably becomes a point of frustration. Your budding metropolis simply gets too big to handle the congestion. There is usually one intersection where, for some reason, the cars just don't behave how you want them to. You end up cursing the terrible AI drivers or whatever system manages the traffic lights. But before you tear it all down in an attempt to fix it, there is a moment when you feel like if you had more control over the drivers or maybe the lights, you... |
| The latest online craze is submitting to the mortifying ordeal of being known Posted: 04 Aug 2019 07:00 AM PDT  One of my favorite memes is spun off a line from an essay: "if we want the rewards of being loved, we must submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known." The format is simpler than it sounds: on one side, being loved; on the other, being known. Sometimes the mortifying ordeal is a pane of glass or a cartoon boulder, but it's always standing between you and being loved. The wordiness becomes part of the joke. You can start with a simple tagline ("why don't you have a piece of bread," let's say) and the twist ("why don't you submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known") will turn it into something sadder and harder to resolve. There's real wisdom to the idea. Intimacy can be terrifying, and the lonelier you are, the scarier it is.... |
| French inventor successfully crosses the English Channel on a hoverboard Posted: 04 Aug 2019 06:22 AM PDT  Photo by Aurelien Meunier/Getty Images After a failed attempt at the end of July, French inventor Franky Zapata successfully crossed the English Channel early this morning on his Flyboard Air, a jet-powered hoverboard. Zapata departed from Sangatte, France and arrived in Dover, England 22 minutes later, reaching speeds of up to 106 miles per hour during the 22-mile trip. "We made a machine three years ago," he said after landing, "and now, we've crossed the Channel, it's crazy." The Guardian reports that the trip wasn't a continuous one: because he only carried a 10-minute supply of fuel on his back, he had to make a pit stop at the halfway mark to refuel. This was Zapata's second attempt to cross the Channel: his first attempt at the end of July ended in failure when he... |
| A design firm is hosting a contest to encourage people to reimagine cybersecurity stock images Posted: 04 Aug 2019 06:00 AM PDT  Cybersecurity stock images are predictable at this point: a hooded man with a shadowy face in front of a keyboard or a mysterious person in front of binary code. A design firm called OpenIDEO thinks these images can be better, so it's hosting a contest to entice visual creators to make images that are eye-catching, informative, and clear. "Cybersecurity," which could mean data breaches, hacks, or policy changes, is a difficult concept to visually represent, so OpenIDEO is going to reward creators for their work. The group, in association with a private organization called the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, issued an open call late last month for cybersecurity-related image submissions with plans to award $7,000 to up to five... |
